May. 31st, 2008 12:45 pmIt's raining or rather pouring, with rumbling, outside. Not upset about it. We need the rain.
But, I should have run my errands this morning as opposed to watching the BSG episodes that had stacked up on my DVR. What is it about Saturday mornings, that makes me feel so lazy? Maybe the fact that I'm used to getting up at 5:50 every day and hustling off to work...so that I treasure the ability to sleep until 7 or 8, eat a leisurely breakfast and do zip for a few hours.
It's dark too, not just gray, which means the sky is about to have a major temper tantrum. Oh, well, I can run the errands tomorrow - supposed to be pretty tomorrow. And to be honest? I'm really not in the mood to do much of anything today, but relax and be lazy. Am considering going horseback riding in Prospect Park on June 14 with one of my many social networking groups via meetups.com. So far the only social networking group I've done much with is lj, and that's been pretty spotty. I'm just not a group person. I join them, lots of them, stay a bit, long enough to notice cliques - which inevitably arise in groups, let's face it people are tribal by nature - get annoyed by the exclusive nature of them, and depart. It may be genetic, my parents are exactly same way. I come from a family of dilettents.
Saw the two-hour season finale of Lost last night. Nice of them to answer several of our questions as opposed to perpetually holding the audience in suspense. One of Lost's creators stated in an interview recently that the best way to keep people from seeking out spoilers, was to answer their questions and provide them with resolution. Yep. If you don't do it, you risk your audience wandering off in frustrated annoyance. And teasing is not tolerable. So kudos to Lost, for finally getting the point. Without giving anything away in this paragraph, I was satisfied with the finale and find myself once again engaged and actually caring where the show is going. I cared before, but found myself somewhat emotionally detached from the characters, who appeared to be going around and around in the same repetitive circles and not moving forward. Now? They are definitely moving forward.
