It's All About Balance
May. 18th, 2007 01:05 pmThings that (however dubiously) win:
- Me. Because I got to work at 8:00 a.m. baby!! I realize this may be normal for others, but that's two days I got up at 7:00 and that is just terribly unnatural and yet I did it.
- The Gas Company. For lo, they are here in my house turning the gas back on.
- SG-1. Because tonight's ep, Bad Guys, fills me with unabashed glee (unlike Bounty which fills me with shameful glee for the very fan fic nature of it, but it's still on the Moxi.) Bad Guys is fun, it's a romp, (it's one in the continuing series of eps that has absolutely nothing to do with the majore plot arc of the season, but as I do not care much for the Ori, I just shrug). It's also clever, it's all about teamwork, and parts of it are honestly hilarious. Plus, somehow Joshua Molina is briefly released from being an Aaron Sorkin stereotype in Sorkinville, to being a mildly less Sorkingtype in Stargateville. So that's nice.
-Me, again, for actually posting a![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
farscapefriday challenge on Friday!
Things that do not win:
-Us. M. & I for not paying the gas bill. (I blame this only partly on M. even though the gas is his bill to pay like the cable is mine because I know he refuses to look at the bill unless it's red and staring him in the face, and yes, I'd reverted to the letting the mail box serve as a hold all because I don't want to bring mail inside. If I had brought the mail inside, the odds are he'd have paid the bill before they shut off the gas, if only just so. There are things I know, after living with him, and I just WON'T adjust accordingly and so we both suffer. That does not give him call to be pissy at me, but that's never stopped him in the past, and will unlikely stop him in the future. M.'s version of events is always skewed to his view.)
- Hal, the giant TV. Because he needs "warm up" time. I swear to god the TV has turned into an aging porn star in need of a fluffer to get it up. Unless you turn Hal on a good hour before you want to watch anything, he angles and fitzes and blurs and crackles and it is an exercise in frustration.
- The Gas Company, who think that it's appropriate to schedule a time somewhere "between 7:00 and 5:00 p.m." and refused to give me an ACTUAL time. The fact that I was arguing uselessly with one of their service people just made the fact that they walked up to the door at 12:30 all the better. Now, if they'd just fix the stove and leave so I can go back to work, this day might not be a total wash.
