Last night...

I went to bed at 8pm and watched a couple episodes of Black Books. (Hee! The Cleaner episode! I love the that.) After lying in bed for the next two hours unable to sleep, I decided to watch West Wing, specifically SGTE,SGTJ and The Stackhouse Filibuster.

I love SGTE,SGTJ. I love Toby and the female cop, I love CJ and the mapmakers, I love that opening shot of Sam asleep on the couch and I love Leo's attempt to give the Big Block of Cheese Day speech. I also love Donna in that episode. However, I'd forgotten how much fun the Stackhouse Filibuster is.

I mean, I always remember it as the episode where Josh's new shoes cause him to slide and fall rather spectacularly, but I'd forgotten it's also the episode where Sam sneaks into Josh's staff meeting in search of a good piece of fruit and volunteers for a dodgy job because he has a grudge against having had to spend $30 at Kinko's (plus, Sam's nickname speech makes me snigger: "The GOA needs a little housekeeping and I'm the Housekeeper. ... That's a terrible nickname. I'm not going by that nickname anymore."). It's also the episode where Jed and Leo share a candlelit dinner for two, CJ shows her strong hold on the press and Donna proves how observant she is. Plus, I love the voiceovers from CJ, Josh and Sam, and the emails to their parents. I love the way that their voiceovers intertwine at the end, giving this very strong impression of the three as a team with similar goals and values. It's very nice.

Anyway, I fell asleep after that at about 12.30, and had some odd dreams. Not bad, just odd. ( Mum and running... )

(no subject)

*yawn* I'm sleepy. It's lunchtime, and since I forgot to bring the cheques I needed to bank (they're mum's cheques that I decided not to do Saturday morning) and it's miserable outside, I spent the hour catching up on online comics, specifically:

I have a "V" energy drink sitting in my drawers, but I'm trying tnot to rely on caffeine to get me through today. It's a bad way to start a Monday. *g*

*sob* Tom!!!

I missed Crossing Jordan because I was watching Spooks. I hope that was the end of the second season.* I don't think I could watch Spooks without Tom.

Right now, I'm holding back the sniffles and teary eyes by will power alone. *sob* Tom!

* It was the tenth episode, and the BBC doesn't have details of further episodes, so I guess that's as far as they've gone.
