This probably won't interest anyone aside from me and

mlyn, but Grotto's (a local pizzaria) got some new arcade games - and they're for The Fast and the Furious. Among the options are Brian's two cars (obviously) and Dom's Charger.

Went to the mall today to get seasons 6 and 7 of SG-1 and also ended up getting seasons 8 and 2 (because I didn't get it the first time I had ordered it) since they were doing a "buy one tv box set and get one free" sale.

I just finished the season 5 episode "The Warrior", which I liked. But I think my favorites so far this season have been "Wormhole X-treme" and "Proving Ground". (And, as an aside, I thought "Last Stand" was a good closer to Martouf/Lantash, even though I'm still pissed about that whole subplot.)

And, after watching some more SGA episodes yesterday, I've realized why I'm having trouble getting into it so far. For some odd reason, SGA feels like Star Trek to me, while SG-1 feels like Firefly. I am starting to get into SGA, but SG-1 feels like that comfy shirt that fits just right and might even have a stain or two, but that's okay. I am starting to see the McShep more, and I love Zelenka and Carson, and I love the fact that John is smart enough to pass the MENSA test, but decide not to join.

Just as an fyi to

eternalmusings,

luvxander (if he's on tonight), and

betagoddess - I'm house sitting until Wednesday night (not quite sure what time I'll be home), so that's why I wasn't on to chat last night, nor will be on until (possibly) Thursday. (Though, I might be on Wednesday night, depending.

And, Michelle, since I'm planning on finishing season 5 tonight, here's a premptive "OMG!" about the penultimate episode, even though we both know that I'm aware of what's going to happen.

Okay, now I'm off to finish season 5 of SG-1.
