I think I channeled my inner
lyda_pearl today. Somehow I ended up sleeping all afternoon. A five hour nap. It felt very luxurious, but I'm probably going to be up all night, now. There's got to be some way to not be so exhausted by the time the weekend rolls around, but I haven't found it yet. Until I do, I guess I'll just continue to sleep away at least half of the weekend.
I finished up the last episodes of my season one Invisible Man box set, and watched some ST: TOS on Hulu. I also fed my new obsession by reading all the latest hockey news and watching a bunch of postgame interviews, and attempting to teach myself some of the finer points of the game, so that I can stop asking
eve11 to explain every little thing to me. Unfortunately, I still have a long way to go in that department. It's a very fast paced game with a lot of specialized terminology, but I'm getting there. The most frustrating thing for me is that I'm a visual learner, and NBC (the only major network to carry hockey) only televises a few games a year. For the most part, I have to listen to the games on the radio, which makes it a lot harder to pair actions and jargon. Watching a live game at the arena was as amazing for the purpose of understanding the game as it was for the high of watching your team come out on top.
Tomorrow I intend to be nearly as lazy as today, although hopefully without the huge nap in the middle of it. There are a few things that can't be put off, such as laundry, but otherwise, I want to get caught up on some missed tv (mainly Numb3rs and SPN) and watch the Netflix dvds that have been lying about for weeks untouched. Seriously, if I don't watch Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil this weekend, I should just return it because it's been sitting on my dvd player for too many weeks to keep track of. I also have T2 and the first disc of Little Dorrit. That should be plenty to keep me busy.
