All along the watchtower.
















On BSG's Season 3 finale... wow. Just, wow. Be warned, spoiler(s) ahead.

Of the final 5 Cylons: Tyrol I guessed; not too bothered about Tori (who cares?)... Anders was a mild surprise, but Tigh... who would've thought? I absolutely refuse to believe that Starbuck is the 5th. No, not happening. NO. -_-

And what about that absolutely kickass version of Dylan's "All Along The Watchtower"? Those intoxicating Indian guitar (sitar?) riffs... my god. I cannot wait for the S3 OST to be out (in August).

Anyhow, I thought it was a pretty nifty finale, even if E wasn't all that convinced. S4 resumes in January. *CRY*

There must be some way out of here
Said the joker to the thief
There's too much confusion
I can't get no relief

"All Along The Watchtower" - Bob Dylan

This hour has twenty-two minutes.

I posted a pretty snarky, angry post a couple of days ago, and took it down approximately 40 minutes into thinking about it. It's not anger I feel, I don't think. Disappointment's probably closer to the mark. If you'd honestly wanted to, you would've already. Maybe you're just being cruel to be kind, but I need to know in order to properly move on. I want to move on.












Eternal Summer at the MQFF was awesome. I'd watch it again in a heartbeat. Another Be With Me moment, only kinda-sorta expected, just not in that way!

Yeah, it's all about the emo for a while, I'm afraid.

"Until he left me alone in the hotel room, I suppose I hadn’t realised how much I might want something more with him and how disappointed I might be, if he didn’t want that too. Faced with the hard reality – the abrupt impersonal peck on the cheek showing he didn’t want to be intimate with me – I had to accept that this want was one-sided.

As I looked at my reflection in the mirror, I felt stupid. Stupid for letting my guard down; stupid for allowing myself to have even considered being more than fuck-buddies with him; and more stupid for feeling rejected by him, when there was absolutely nothing to feel rejected over."

The quiet break of soul.

Check out Dave Matthews (of the Dave Matthews Band, yes) in this week's House! Dave Matthews, House, and a piano showdown... what more can a girl ask for? That's really Hugh Laurie playing, by the way, and did I mention Cameron smooching House?!!



DMB'll be in town come April, but I'm not sure I can justify spending the dough to see him play the few songs that I know (but absolutely LOVE). Here's my one of my all-time favourites.

[And if anyone's interested, the first tune that House plays is "I Don't Like Mondays" by the Boomtown Rats.]

He smiles at me, and suddenly I am seventeen again -- the year I realised love doesn't follow the rules, the year I understood that nothing is worth having so much as something unattainable. "It's not all that hard to avoid someone, when you want to," I answer coolly, "You of all people should know."
