Happy Birthday Dad

Today is my dad’s birthday and even though I have a pretty bad Spring cold, I’ll be going to his house to celebrate. Happy Day, Dad! :love: I spent a little time up there yesterday, as I had to have someone escort me to the Praxis II exam I had to take in order to be certified for my job. I have NO IDEA how I did on that test. I am an excellent test taker (as I’ve stated in the past), but this wasn’t a test of counseling. This was a test of common sense, which could be bad for ol’ Jenny-Girl. Heh.

Allow me, for a moment, to speak televisionally. LOST, as we knew and loved, is completely done. I have achieved closure now, and can nearly watch the show again. I’ve accepted that the show is about some old white men and their ridiculous dealings. What it is NOT is a show about the survivors of a plane crash. This became evident during the last episode, where it was “Elsewhere on the island, some people were seen on a beach.” The stories of Jack, Kate, Sawyer, Locke, Michael, Walt, Sun, Jin, Hurley, Charlie, Claire, Shannon, Boone, etc. are meaningless. They are nothing but side plots now. When all is said and done, they will be afterthoughts in the synopsis of the show. The end of the synopsis will read, “…and survivors of a plane crash caused by the island were featured in flashbacks and later, flashforwards due to their contact with Ben and Mr. Widmore.) *sigh* I miss the first year so much. Now that the smokemonster (which is a stupid device, anyway) can be controlled, there’s no inherent fear of the unknown. It really is a show about rich old men playing around with an island. Sad, really.

The two-part Doctor Who episode is here, and Part One was the best of the early season two-parters yet. I enjoyed seeing Martha and Donna together and I’m really looking forward next week. I’ve also started watching The Sarah Jane Adventures on SciFi. I’m content with just watching the episodes there, so I won’t be burning them to disc, but I’m really enjoying the show, kids and all. Lots of fun!
