This wheel's on fire ...

Does it bug anyone else when the memory function goes all kooky? Like, I'll be happily reading my *ahem* memoried Firefly fanfic (all G-rated, all the time ... I swear!) and it'll just stop working. Even though it was working a minute ago. Annoying! It also annoys me when Cole asks for something to eat at 8 at night. Can't he eat earlier? I swear that boy has a tapeworm or something.

Speaking of my darling boy, I kept him home from school today. Cole, who normally pops out of bed with me in the morning, could not get up. I left him home with my sis, went and opened the branch and came home to try to sleep more myself. Btw, my hair must have been wet when I climbed into bed for my 9:30 (am) nap because it was sticking up something fierce when I crawled out an hour or so later. Even I had to laugh at myself. Oh, and I figured that Cole had what I had over the weekend, but now I'm not so sure because he seemed a lot perkier in the afternoon than anyone has the right to.

Where was I going with this?

Oh, yeah. Basically, I did nothing today. I watched the FF episode Our Mrs Reynolds because my next story is going to have the lovely Saffron in it and I had to do some homework. Yeah, life is so tough. I also watched Into the Blue earlier. Umm ... Paul Walker and Jessica Alba are hot. And all of a sudden someone was dead but I wasn't paying all that much attention to the part leading up to it and I was all "huh?". The movie? Not half bad. Not great by any stretch of the imagination, but not so bad I was cowering under my blankets waiting for it to end.

On that note, tomorrow I have to work like a normal girl. Boo.

i watched 'into the blue' also. it was alright. they are hot. i like the part when jessica and paul refuse to take the coke and i thought how nice that they aren't stupid. but then paul ends up kind of stupid and jessica doesn't know who she can trust. but still i watched maybe 75% of the movie and it was fine. in other news, i cancelled my internet at home, and it isn't as bad as i thought. true, it does suck, but i'm not curled up into a ball in the corner chanting 'internet' like i thought i would be.

Serenity Might Fly Again?

Loni Peristere, visual-effects supervisor for the SF movie Serenity, told SCI FI Wire that there's hope for future flights of the cast and crew of the movie, which just came out on DVD. Director Joss Whedon—who also created the canceled Fox TV show Firefly, on which the movie is based—expected that the movie might draw the low numbers it did in its theatrical release, Peristere said in an interview. But he added that the movie's sales on DVD, which came out on Dec. 20, are running neck-and-neck with the hit comedy Wedding Crashers, which bodes well for a possible Serenity sequel.

"We kind of expected this from our audience," Peristere said. "We did so well on [Amazon.com] with the Firefly box set and the performance of that helped us get the movie made. We wish the audience would get up and go to the theater, but it shows that they like to keep coming back and revisiting the world Joss created." Serenity made $25 million at the domestic box office after it was released Sept. 30.

Whedon and his crew are waiting to see how well the DVD numbers go before proceeding with a Serenity sequel, Peristere said. "We really hope to return to this work," he said. "We love the characters. It's fun storytelling, and we all love using our talents. ... It all depends on Joss. He's not giving up on the characters. He had incredible writers who had a million stories to tell, and we're all just hanging out and seeing what the world has to give us, and given the opportunity we'll make more."
