[fandom] movies, tv shows, and weight loss
This afternoon was a media afternoon while I tried to catch up on everything that had fallen to the wayside because of being sick the past few days and completely out of commission on Saturday. (One of those things, unfortunately, is my femslash07 story, but I'll have it posted on time tomorrow.)
During laundry, writing, editing, throwing out papers, etc., I watched the pilot episode of Friday Night Lights online, and absolutely loved it. I haven't watched it because it's on against Bones, and I'll continue to watch Bones, but I'm definitely going to catch up with FNL online.
People, I very nearly cried at a couple of scenes. It brought back that high school thrill of Friday night games, early morning marching band practice, and the excitement of watching the team fight to win. (My high school team wasn't all that great, except for when I was a freshman. The band, though, was smoking.)
Then my sister K. and I went to see 300, which I loved. Very comic book, very exciting, full of hot guys and gorgeous women, and not nearly as misogynist as I expected from him. (Good previews, too, Spiderman III, Invisible, and that figure skating movie, which looks funny. No Resident Evil 3, though, which made me sad.) I kind of fell in love with the Queen of Sparta. Plus maybe all the three hundred.
I also heard about this thing, Girl Trash, which is Angela Robinson's Pulp Fiction-style Lesbian Noir set in the criminal underworld of Los Angeles and starring Margaret Cho, Mandy Musgrave, Gabrielle Christian, Rose Rollins, and Jordana Brewster. I do not think I can love her more, and yet, here she is, doing another role over which I wish to swoon.
Tag: "A gang war is brewing ... and you'll be asked to pick a side."
Jordana's! I pick Jordana's! After Mia and Lucy Diamond, I'll follow her anywhere.
Finally, even though I haven't been able to work out since Thursday (and that was just a light walk, because Tuesdays and Thursdays are my days off), when I got dressed to go to the movies, I put on a new long sleeve shirt, and it was an XL. It's a little tighter than I like (which basically means it's not hanging off of me in folds), but it's comfortable.
To compare, my work shirts, which I wear every week, are 3XL.
I don't think you can see I've lost weight, and I don't feel I'm making much progress (for example, I have yet to bench 100 pounds, and nikitangel is catching up to me there, and surpassing me elsewhere, so I have to get back to lifting tomorrow), but I guess I am, at least a little.
I'm going back to bed now.
