"Ain't it beautiful, crystal blue persuasion, better get ready to see the light."
And the first half of the fifth season of Breaking Bad is over. Or, as I like to call it, the fifth season. Because if I have to wait a whole year for 8 new episodes, I'm going to call them "sixth season". Just saying.
I'm going to let my inner Arthur Shappey free here, and say it was BRILLIANT. No other words come to mind. Two iconic, extraordinary montages, and one nail-biting final cliffhanger all wrapped up in one amazingly written episode. The next season is going to be such a chess game, I can already taste it. Can't wait. And I realized halfway through the episode that I can finally order all the previous seasons on bluray, even if they're region A, because hello new bluray player. So happy! ♥
A few weird things that happened to me lately, in an otherwise uneventful week. A girl at the gym yesterday approached me and asked me about my summer. While we were chatting I noticed she was very nervous, and after a few minutes I realized why. She was talking to me like a teen talks to an adult, trying really hard to sound smart and engaging. For the first time in my life, I realized I was on the recieving end of the "awkward conversation with an adult". So then I noticed the girls at the gym consider me part of the Adults group, even if the Adults (who are coincidentally all friends of mine, and all over 55) consider me one of the Girls. So weird. :D
My Galaxy Quest bluray arrived today! I opened it, and there was a sheet with a coupon for the 2009 Star Trek movie. I found it very, very amusing. :D I can't believe I hadn't heard of this movie until two weeks ago, when somebody posted a gifset of the crunchy-chompy hallway scene on tumblr. It's witty, funny, touching, and it has some of my favourite actors ever! For all that I complain about tumblr (no space for real discussions or comments, full of kids, the epitome of the "serious business" attitude) it made me discover so many great movies and tv shows. ♥
