Merlin (the character) has really goofed this time. Never, never trust a little kid with eyes that blue (Damien, anyone?). This show could go on forever with the way they’ve set up the bits and pieces of the legend, and I quite like it this way. Sure, I’d rather have Lancelot stayed around in a featured role, but I like this quick-glimpse formula. Good week.
I’m going to go out on a limb as say that SGA sucked. I watched the first few minutes, the last few minutes and fast-forwarded through the rest. Michael, hostages, blah blah blah. Even though Michael may actually be dead (a couple years too late), I can’t care. Pity, really.
Now that Primeval (which I love, btw) has finished its run and Merlin is wrapping up, Saturdays are going to be terribly boring for a while. Robin Hood isn’t starting anytime soon and I’m dreading the weeks of no new shows to love.
In the last two weeks I managed to live through two school trips unscathed. Score! Ooh, and this morning, I got to have a nice coffee date with my Dad and Jamie. I’m such a sucker for seasonal promotions. I had the Pumpkin Spiced Latte and a Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffin–and a lot of fun.

Okay
I really shouldn’t say that I had a busy day because out of everyone, I had the easiest time. Scott and Jamie are finishing the upgrades to their new house and without air conditioning (which installs today), it was too hot for the kids to be there. Aunt Jenn to the rescue! Cage and Scotti stayed with me all day yesterday and we had a blast. Well, Cage and I did; Scotti slept most of the day.
Big Wednesday night TV viewing. Hopefully, we’ll see the last of Mango. So many people are anti-Suede that they’re missing out on the true buffoon. Look past the blue and see the MANGO, people!

Accomplished
Scotti Lee Miller was born April 1, 2008 at 7:00pm. She weighs in at 8lbs. and owns the runway with her 21 1/4 inch height. Even though she’s a month earlier than first projected, she already looks around, plays with the cord to her heart monitor and enjoys passing secret spit bubble messages with her brother, Cage. She has her mom’s full head of dark hair and her dad’s eyes and lips (we’re talking Jolie territory here). Mother, father, and daughter are fine and should be home in a day or two.
She’s perfect, and I’m so proud to be Aunt Jenn to my little niece! 
No, not Christmas wishes. Here’s to a painless recovery for Goober, a Happy Birthday (tomorrow) for Jamie, no more trips to the ER for Scott or Jamie, and a better episode of Heroes tomorrow. I hate Elle. I honestly gave her (and Kristen Bell) a chance, but nope, HATE them both. I wish she would die. Seriously (just the character).
I continue to love Robin Hood. A lot. Some of the cast are rumored to have signed on for Series 3, which is great news. I hate that British shows are so short. The seasons are short and the run of the show is short. With a few exceptions, all the great shows are gone in no time; Spaced and The Office come to mind immediately. I expect we’ll be getting the Doctor Who Christmas special soon, though I haven’t checked out the date yet.
Huge thanks to my Mom, who not only turned my kitchen into a supermarket, but who also turned my wallet into a bank. She’s got magical powers, that one.
Istar’s vet visit went as expected. He’s now a whopping 17lbs. and he received another steroid injection as well as an antibiotic just in case he has a respiratory infection to boot. Too bad he prefers to wear the medicine as to swallow it. Oh well, we’ll keep trying. Hobbit hissed up a fit when he came home, but she seems to be over her little diva stunt….for now.
Thanks for the birthday wishes! This was actually one of the more enjoyable birthdays of recent years. I got my early gifts from Ben and Jesse, super-cool post from Ben on LJ, socks and Borders gift card from Scott and Jamie, and a cool diecast metal AT-AT from Cage. Mrs. Bush (the other counselor at work) got me a caramel pound cake and Mom made my candle cake. The family ate out and had a pleasant time. Hobbit and Istar held a rowdy party last night, and Istar must have hit the hooch a little too much because he kept wanting to get in the fireplace. He’s a little nutty, that one!
I was going to see the MVHS production of Steel Magnolias, but since we have several inches of snow, it’s been postponed. Now I can do that work I had planned on doing yesterday. Ooh, and I still have to finish my assignment for class.
