I'm sitting here and listening to a Slate podcast and I was like, "How can I multitask?" and I thought to myself, "Hm. Why don't I write another Xena review?" I mean, I watched the episode immediately following my last review so I had the notes stored and, frankly, I'm sick of not finishing this project! So I'm going to write this review and listen ( Read more... )

Well, hell. After a terminally long hiatus from writing these reviews, I'm back in the game. For now. I figured that spring break was the perfect opportunity to get my ass in gear and write my first Xena review since back in October or November. Yeah, it's been a while, folks. And I stopped after the first part of a trilogy. What the hell, man?

I spent my Saturday in Asheville and I'm currently in the fourth season of Grey's Anatomy. We also got an extra hour today so even though I woke up at what was, this morning 6:45, it didn't even bother me because I got to use that extra hour to grocery shop which made me less resentful that I was wasting time by having to go to the grocery store.

Since I last wrote, my academy was evacuated due to a gas leak and I stepped on, on school property, a dirty, rusty nail. Oh, life. You're so funny!

Ah well. I'm oddly in good spirits. I think the September/October depression that teachers get is behind me. At least for now. Thank the gods. And thank Xena because we're now nicely into the sixth ( Read more... )

Two reviews in two days! Wow! I must be on fire! But I'm feeling rather productive today because I went with a friend to Beaners and we were pro-active about applying for jobs. So now I'm officially signed up to look for jobs in Memphis and another website that has job posting from all over the country. I'm also mostly done with my application for ( Read more... )

Finally! India! I never expected the fourth season to take this long to get through. It's not even my favorite season but it seems to have a lot of essentially episodes. And I'm not even half way through! This is hardcore, seriously.

But, again, we're finally to India. Well, maybe not quite yet. They're at least on their way. I suppose the exact ( Read more... )

I was going to skip Past Imperfect in this jaunty review process, too, but I was scanning through it the other night and realized it was the episode that explained what happened to Borias and it felt kind of wrong to leave it out. Here I am just trying to get to the India Arc and I keep preventing myself from getting there.

But this is the last one ( Read more... )

I had such a bizarre time last night (fun, though it was . . . except for the douche bag guy my friends and I kind of took to task and getting a beer thrown on me) that I need to get my equilibrium back with some Xena!

I wasn't originally intending to include Crusader in my reviews but, when I thought about it a little more, I figured that it's a ( Read more... )

I love sequels. Don't you just love sequels? I mean, let's think of some good sequels. The Empire Strikes Back. Aliens. Toy Story 2. The Two Towers. Other stuff. Like Adventures In The Sin Trade II. Nice work, sequels. Nice work.

Happy Memorial Day! Man, it's hot outside. It's about 90 degrees. In May. This isn't unheard of for Michigan, but it's not really that fun. Last night we had some severe thunderstorms across the state. Poor Violet (my dog) was shaking so much she shook herself to sleep. And now she has to contend with this heat. Weather wise, it hasn't been a good ( Read more... )
