Science Fiction Geek Time...

One of the advantages of being unemployed--I get to watch the Battlestar Galatica marathon today on the Sci-Fi channel...

As a sci-fi geek who has seen many shows fade and end, it always saddens me to see great science fiction leave the screen. Thinking of tonights final episode of Battlestar Galatica, I think back to all the shows I loved---Star Trek, Babylon 5, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel--and I feel so lucky to have been able to visit these worlds...and to get to re-visit them again (with my children too!) on DVD.

Battlestar Galatica was a wonderful show. Tonight we are having our favorite pizza--and sushi (cuz sushi is the only food that we can recognize that they eat on BSG).

With a heavy heart I say good bye, BSG--but I do look forward to seeing you again (and again)...

(and at least there is still Dr. Who...)

Thank goodness for Dr.Who!

Ah, but sexy Dr Who is leaving the show!

I do miss Start Trek TNG, Angel, and Firefly. My husband and I are diehard Browncoats.

@Unicornmommy:

Yes, I know Matt's blog--been following since Willow was born--Willow was born exactly one month after Madeline so I have a special place in my heart for her.

I have left comments on his blog, but never been in contact with him directly.

Hi, I found your blog on the new Stirrup Queens place - whatever it is called! I just wanted to post as I hope to be in your shoes soon; we have one son (7) and have been ttc #2 for 6 years, currently in 2ww for DE IVF#2. So we'll see!

Also, I just finished the Buffy series (which I am crushed to be done with), we loved Firefly and I'm looking for my next obsession. Trying out Dr Who on Netflix.

So if you're interested check out my blog at musicmakermomma@livejournal.com - fun to find your blog.

Much Needed Self Care...

For my Birthday this year, I got a weekend away from everyone at a nice hotel with a spa.  This was the weekend.  And much needed it was! Af...
