Being Human returned last week, and it’s taken me this long to write about it. <--- Not a good sign. I will say, however, that S2 Ep2 is much better. For starters, there's less George, which also means there's less out-of-character-George. The Mitchell love is still growing, as is the Annie love (oh, poor Annie!). Nina, too, because I wouldn't have adjusted quite so well, either. All in all, things are going well...heh.
The looming threat could play out really terrifically, and I hope it does. I was never completely convinced that Herrick was a big enough bad, even with his lofty vamp goals. No, religious nuts with technology seem much more threatening, if you ask me.
Regardless, Being Human is back, and I am very, very glad that it is. Is anyone else watching first run??
New Year, New Look, New Everything
Although I love the sleek design of my Gallery theme, I think the necessity of finding two images per post was keeping me from posting as much as I’d like.
I’ve pared it down a bit, but kept a few features I liked best. We’ll see how long it lasts.
I intend to return to the wonderful world of fandom posting soon, but I just wanted to note a few things as we begin the new year.
I start a new job next week. This is HUGE for me, as I am leaving a position that is comfortable both professionally and personally. I can only hope the excitement of the new position will help overshadow any shortcomings that may come socially.
Speaking of socially…WOW! Since we’ve been out three weeks due to scheduled Winter Break and then plenty of snow days, I think it’s not too geeky to say when it snows it pours! There’s finally a little action from the eHarmony end, an open offer on the local end, and I’ve just had a fantastic (friends only) weekend with the promise of more to come (I have Doctor Who Third Doctor DVDs as ransom….mwa ha ha ha). I’d have to say that right now life is good.
Next post–FANDOM LOVE. I promise.

Seeking
My favorite show (just barely edging out Fringe) is Legend of the Seeker. I haven’t been on and on about it, but here’s an idea of how much I love it:
I added an app to my Palm Pre to enable to allow me to download fanvids from YOUTUBE.
That’s right, guys, YOUTUBE.
