Spoilers for Tarzan

Well, that sucked.

Jane's annoying, "Tarzan" is a horny, angsty, Batman-wannabe who can't keep it in his pants, Richard and Kathleen are laughably character-less and Michael, the one character who seemed largely normal and likable, turned into a one-dimensional jackass.

And then died. Stupidly.

argh.

Mary and Cyn made me watch it. It even sounded like something I might like. But as far as I am concerned, that is an entire hour of my life that is irretrievably gone. The only redeeming factor is the fact that I now have a new project: getting this show canceled so something good can grow from the ashes.

And why doesn't anyone call him Tarzan? His freakin' name is Tarzan. He calls himself Tarzan, he introduces himself as Tarzan - why the hell can't anyone else just call him Tarzan? But no! He is John! Because Tarzan is too monkey-ish or something. Why call the show Tarzan if you aren't going to have a character named Tarzan? They could have called it "John in the Big City" or "Jane and John" or even "Stupid Monkey-Boy Sniffs Annoying Indecisive Girl!"

I really did not like this show.

(no subject)

I ended up staying a second night in Fairlawn, despite having fully intended to be a good girl and go home fairly early this evening. Ended up going to Cyn's house where we all crashed, watched Charmed and the foulness-that-is-the-new-Tarzan (see previous post) then spazzed for an hour or so.

Had a great time. We all went to Walmart last night and proceeded to not act our ages AT ALL. Fortunately, the Walmart people seemed to think we were funny, and a very nice (and amused) employee even climbed up a stack of shelves for us because we wanted to play with the electronic Ninja Turtle weapons. Mary thinks I need to get the Bo so I can defend myself on night walks. I personally am tempted by the Shell Cell. *grins* Why yes, I am ten years old, why do you ask?

We proceeded to do absolutely nothing of any value today whatsoever. Got up around nine, and talked about writing and some stories we've been working on. Mary's thinking of doing NaNoWriMo, and I'm tempted to join her, although I'm not crazy about the quantity over quality stipulations. I understand the reasoning, but I think the world spends little enough time on improving the quality of just about anything as it is.

May have talked Mary into visiting me in a month or so. *grins* We'll see. Hopefully she'll bring Cyn with.

I've almost got the ending to Time down. This is a story I started back in high school, and it's just been sitting in my harddrive ever since. I took it out and dusted it off for no good reason about a month ago, and I think I know how it needs to be finished now. I'm pretty excited about it - I always liked this story.

My car has spiffy new liscence plates! They match the car! How nifty!

It's time for bed now. Mary's heading off and Ian McKellen is making herself comfortable in my bed.
