I haven't written at all this week. I haven't either had the time, or felt inclined. Just busy, I guess. And tired... very, very tired. I've been exhausted most of this week.

Finally saw Veronica Mars tonight. I have no idea what's going on. I think I missed only an episode, but apparently lots happened in it, so I am completely lost. And the current events really suck on it.

24 has certainly picked up. It took Sherry Palmer to finally get that to happen. Plus, Gina Torres is in it, which I am happy about, except she plays someone completely different than I'm used to. Between her as Anna (Alias), Jasmine (Angel), and Zoey (Serenity), I just have never seen her as anything but a confidant, forthright woman. I guess Sherry's forthright enough for everyone, though. Really, it was the dullest, most irritating first nine episodes. There are exactly 4 parts to every season of 24, and here it was Kyle Singer, Mexico, and then Nina Myers (yes!). I was happy to see Sarah Clarke as Nina again. And I like new girl Chloe.

Kim Bauer is one of the most annoying characters that I recall watching on an otherwise (usually) satisfying television series. She has never made the right decision, has repeatedly put herself and others in jeopardy, and fucked things up consistently. I hate her avidly, and this season is no different. She just has a boyfriend to get equally annoyed by.

Yeah, that's about as in-depth about as I'm going to get about my own current events.
