Last week was crazy. Along with meeting with my dissertation committee, which went very well, I had jury duty. Amazingly, I was selected to serve on the actual jury. (Why would anyone ever put me on a jury for a criminal case?) The case was over in one day, so it wasn’t to bad. Also, someone made a mistake at work that I spent an entire day fixing. I wasn’t able to start anything that resembled a normal workday until Friday, which was to late to really accomplish anything.
The series finale for one of my favorite shows of all time, Battlestar Galactica, aired Friday. It was a 2 hour special. I really enjoyed the action packed 1st hour where most the storylines were brought to a close, but just sort of liked the 2nd hour which… okay, I’m not sure what exactly was going on there. I think it was some sort of exposition on man and technology.
Battlestar Galactica (The “reimagined version, not the 80’s version) is my 2nd favorite TV series of all time, behind HBO’s The Wire and in front of the BBC show MI-5 (Spooks in the UK.) If you haven’t seen any of these shows, or are unfamiliar with them, I highly recommend checking them out.
If anyone is wondering, I did see Watchmen the week before last. I absolutely loved it, but I think it may be a difficult movie to enjoy if you are not a fan of the graphic novel.
