Seriously. It was a good day, especially when compared to the blahness of the rest of the week.

First, I woke to a...crapload of reviews for 'Scorecards.' I mean, damn, I knew it was amusing, but not that amusing. Definitely an ego-booster. ;)

Then I cleaned around the house for a bit with Mom, and then tricked her into watching Stargate: Atlantis with me. Fox was showing "Duet" -- my favorite episode so far, though I haven't seen the second half of S2 or any of S3. And so we watched it, and remembered why I love my mother. Because she's hilarious. *grins*

Mom: *watches credits, stares at Joe Flanigan* He's so adorable. He looks like a five-year-old.
*credits continue*
Mom: Wow, that's a lot of pretty people. Why can't I have people that pretty as my friends?
Me: Because we don't know any TV stars.
Mom: *disappointed sigh, stares at Ronon* Hey, wasn't he on Lost?
Me: ...No. Though I might have continued watching Lost after the first season if he had been. Mm. He was on a soap opera though.
Mom: Of course he was.

*later*

Me: *bounces and points at Zelenka* Look, it's my favorite character! Isn't he cute?
Mom: *unimpressed and slightly disturbed look* He's your favorite?
Me: ...Shut up.

*later*

Mom: *watches the screen, where Teyla is doing the splits on her bed* "Wow, flexible. And how did she get that body?"
*Ronon comes on screen, leaning in the doorway and looking gorgeous*
Mom: *eyes glaze over* ...Better question, how did he get that body?

And then there was the Look of Doom at the end with Beckett and McKay (aw, but it's an amusing scene, really), but I forgive her. She liked Rent, after all, she's still cool.

...Um, right. And then I cleaned some more, took a walk that somehow became a two-hour long walk (this is made even odder by the fact that I live in a town so small it doesn't even have a stoplight), and then watched a Scrubs marathon.

Also, while on my walk, I discovered we have a "Catholic University" next to the elementary school and park. Now, is this a real college? Does my town of 500 people and no stoplight have a university? Curious. I will have to investigate this.

*eyes my McShep fic* I am so not getting this done by Christmas. That's sad because it's a Nutcracker AU. You know, my McKay/Zelenka fics aren't nearly this problematic. And the M/Z fics certainly don't demand an entire universe with so much junk and facts that the fic's 8,000+ words along and still not done.

... *coughs* And that's all, folks. Seriously.
