It is 4pm Sunday. I am in bed. I have hot, buttered crumpets, a mug of fresh tea and, on standby, some chocolate.<\/p>\n
I am resting.<\/p>\n
I got home at 10.15am.<\/p>\n
I have spent the day being productive; sorting washing loads, doing a couple of loads of laundry, hanging out washing, doing the washing-up, tidying, reading, writing, emailing, listening to music, writing notes.<\/p>\n
I also walked in to town, earlier, for a little emergency shopping – milk, bread, eggs – then walked back the long way. Just for the exercise.<\/p>\n
Maybe walking home the long way, with a bag of shopping, wasn’t the best idea I’ve had today.<\/p>\n
I’m currently watching Firefly, the Joss Whedon, SciFi, Cowboys-in-Space series.<\/p>\n
It is an interesting show, though it has some fundamental flaws. Structurally it isn’t all that; the writing has basic issues, but it is presented in a very pretty way.<\/p>\n
It feels like a cheap Babylon 5 offshoot.<\/p>\n
The structural issues of Firefly aren’t helped by a couple of key members of the cast being recycled from other Joss Whedon productions, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and its own offshoot, Angel.<\/p>\n
Actually, when I say that Firefly has both fundamental and structural flaws I’m being far too kind.<\/p>\n
It is rubbish.<\/p>\n
The foundations are all wrong – to the point where the flaws kill it.<\/p>\n
Anyway.<\/p>\n
On Wednesday I get my broadband upgraded; I’m shifting from my current 6Mb download to 30Mb download.<\/p>\n
That’s exciting, isn’t it?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
