downer
We watched the season three finale of Downton Abbey the other night, so we’re finally all caught up with the series and the rest of the viewing public. I no longer feel like the odd man out. I still am, but I can pretend that I’m not. The up side: NOW I CAN READ ALL Read.

breaking bad
Well, we finished a marathon catch-up viewing of the fourth season of Breaking Bad last night. Oddly, it didn’t end on a cliffhanger, as the previous season did. Although there are obviously a lot of places for the story to go after the end of season four, the last episode was so much more like Read.

Mad Men
We started watching Mad Men last weekend. The first thing I wanted to know about the show was how they kept Don Draper’s five o’clock shadow permanently set between 4:45 and 5:15. This is the kind of question that buzzes around in my head while I’m supposed to be enjoying the dialogue. How’d you like Read.

corbomite
The Corbomite Maneuver is one of those Star Trek episodes that I thought was the absolute cat’s ass when I saw it back in high school, but when I watch it now it’s so full of cornball I can hardly see anything else going on. It starts off with a mystery: A giant multicolored cube Read.

The Reichenbach Fall
The library finally notified me the other day that disk two of the second season of Sherlock was waiting for me to pick it up, which we did on our way home after work yesterday. Watched it right after dinner. The first episode on the disk was The Reichenbach Fall, the BBC’s adaptation of The Read.

Sherlock Holmes, Dr. Watson, Mrs. Hudson and Inspector Lestrade in modern-day London. Benedict Cumberbatch plays Holmes with a hyperkinetic glee Read.

sleepy
No zombie dreams last night, thank goodness. No dreams at all that I can remember. I was so bushed after dinner that I could barely hang on long enough to drag myself to bed before I fell asleep. I had plans to stay up late enough to sand and finish the book shelves in the Read.

locked
The cats may have locked me out of my laptop. When I came home this afternoon It was sitting on the sideboard by the front window with the top up. The monitor was dark and wouldn’t come back on so I had to force it to shut down. Then, after I booted it up again, Read.

Rescue Me
We started watching the television series Rescue Me about a month ago after we saw Denis Leary on Jon Stewart’s Daily Show and they mentioned this would be the last season for Leary’s show. I turned to My Darling B for the umpteenth time and said that I heard that was a pretty good show Read.

Tap dance
I was trying to get our flat-screen TV to work without the remote, but it had no visible means of control that I could tell, but that couldn’t be. Why would they even make a TV that didn’t have some way to at least turn it on without a remote? So I looked all over Read.
