Well...damn it!
I have no football today. *pouts*
Technically the Cougars are playing, but the game isn't on TV. The Seahawks also have their Bye Week so no football tomorrow either. My husband has been positively giddy at the idea of me free for an entire weekend.
So, being Saturday, husband and I will be heading out to do our grocery shopping. Except I have no idea what I want for dinner the last two days of week and the idea of going out probably isn't an option. I'm seriously drawing a blank, and even going through the number of cookbooks that I own is coming up with anything that looks remotely appetizing. Not even ideas from Alton Brown or Paula Deen are looking good. (Which is saying something.) I'm drawing a blank, and I have to admit, my one requirement is something that could give me one more day of left overs. Or maybe I just do something easy like spaghetti because that requires maybe all of ten brain cells to make and is great for days when I really don't feel like putting a major effort into my cooking. Shocking, I know.
Other than that, I'm gonna say that today will be pretty laid back. I may start cutting out fabric today and start sewing tomorrow and just get the dress done. The other option is putting in the Lord of the Rings trilogy and working on a zombie cross stitch that I can turn into a pillow just in time for Halloween. Or more of Saiyuki. Both are completely viable entertainment options, and both have been watched/read enough times that I really don't have to pay attention to the screen to know what's going on.
And in other news, the Haven season finale was last night. ASJKFIENSIGHASDNVIASHTH!! Holy shit! I admit, I started piecing things together once they revealed that Max couldn't feel anything - followed by Max deliberately seeking out Nathan and putting enough pressure on his shoulder that would cause anyone else to keel over in pain. At that point, I realized that The Chief wasn't Nathan's biological father, but had done his best trying to raise the boy as his son. I'm a little bummed that The Chief is gone now, but to me it seems like a waste of Noah Campbell's talent to have him off the show after thirteen episodes. I suppose that they keep hinting that the dead in Haven don't always stay dead, and the what was left of The Chief seemed to be reacting.
Further more, the Audrey identity mysterious deepens. At this point I'm sure that Audrey has realized that she and Lucy are the same person, but how and why she ended up as Audrey Parker still remains to be seen. And now that Nathan's secret is out of the bag, I have to wonder how this will change the dynamic of their relationship. Is this the starting point of something romantic or will they keep things strictly platonic? And was I the only one who noticed Duke's increasing jealousy towards Audrey's relationship with Nathan. I know that he's had a thing for her from the get go, but the fact that he seems so put out tells me that he also wants to be friends with her and have her trust him. This is not to say that I've abandoned my OTP of Nathan/Audrey, but I do like the Duke dynamic, and the idea that maybe Audrey has another friend if she could open herself up to the idea.
Anyway, ten minutes after Haven ended I was in bed, probably 45 minutes after that I was asleep, I woke up at 8:30 this morning and I'm still exhausted. I would hate to think that I'm suffering from mild depression (let's face it, there are a lot of different symptoms and they vary from person to person), but my occasional loss of interest, my insane desire to do nothing more than sleep on some days, and pain in places that have no reason to hurt can all be indicators of depression. Or maybe I just have some funky hormonal imbalance that is presenting as depression. Well fuck. I'm like an episode of House now.
I suppose I should truly get my ass in gear. I'm showered and dressed (God I love being clean) and now I need to go grocery shopping. Food is a must.
