I know it should be a good day...

lls_mutantYay Obama and all that. Seriously, I do mean it. I, for one, welcome our new Democrat overlords. Sorry- I just can't get serious on the topic of politics, mainly because I'm not a very political person and I hate debating it. But I am happy about the inaguration.
I am NOT happy about my two kids having croupy coughs, or cutting myself with the knife when I was chopping Trevor's cantaloupe, or the snow on the driveway last night (oh, shut up Liss- it was two inches of powder) or my reflection in the mirror this morning. I look like total shit. I didn't sleep much last night, and it's really showing. Plus, normally red is a good color on me, and for some reason today it's just highlighting how terrible I look. (Didn't sleep much because of coughing and crying kids.) Changed seven dirty diapers yesterday, had the shower running for a makeshift sauna three times, and have read WALL-E and The Planets three times. And those books are LONG. (But I've learned a lot about our solar system.)
Escpasism.
1.) I've seen several people comparing Roslin to EVE, which makes Adama WALL-E. I think that's really, really funny.
2.) I still think Leoben running away like a scared little girl is one of the funniest things I've ever seen. I know- it's supposed to mean that when even LEOBEN is scared, something big is going on, and his faith is shaken, and blah blah blah. But damn it, Leoben is a fricking near-rapist, and Starbuck should be staying the hell away from him. Gaeta can tell her that Stockholm's Syndrome does not end well.
3.) Anders being a rock star is the second funniest thing ever, but it is tempered by massive amounts of cool. Why couldn't Dee be a Cylon? She and Anders both got stuck as love interests to people more important than them, which reduced their role in the plot. Anders pulled out of it by being a Cylon. Dee had to be the sacrifice. :P
4.) Still smug about calling Ellen. :) Not as smug as I could be, because I really did think it was Gaeta until D'Anna said there were only four in the fleet. But how cool is it that the epic, 2000 year old love story is going to a woman over 40 and an old bald guy? And Adama and Roslin, if they can ever get their shit together.
5.) Wrote reaction fic Picking Up the Pieces. I can't decide if the title is perfect, or really tasteless. Hoshi helping Gaeta deal with Dee's suicide, because damn it, someone on that ship had to care about Gaeta's feelings, and he was still with Hoshi at the time. Which made the way he was acting in the beginning of the webisodes make SO much more sense.
Ugh. I think another steam sauna is required. I hate winter.
