Birthdays and Oz and SGA and Filtering
First of all, thanks so much to everyone who sent me birthday wishes, especially to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
cheights for the virtual balloons on my profile; and maddiec24, who sent me a lovely card via snail mail - you didn't have to do that, sweetie! What a lovely surprise.
Secondly - after nearly two years in the Oz fandom, I have finally seen Season 666. Ironically enough, I finished watching the DVDs the day before SBS (Aussie TV channel), decided to get off their butts and air the freakin' final season. Anyhoo, I am now also of the opinion that Fontana lost his damn mind while writing that - it was like watching a completely different show. Shit, anything that can make me feel kind of sad when Omar fucking White dies cannot be the same show. I mean, come on. But I have made my peace with it and shall say no more.
Thirdly - I cannot fucking believe that I have to wait 'til March - March! - for the next episode of SGA. Nevermind that we actually haven't even had Season 2 air down here yet - I have clearly gotten spoilt, having everything at my downloading fingertips. Having said that, the mid-season finale was freakin' awesome, with a few things that pissed me off thrown in for good measure.
Seriously, leaving Rodney out of the team goodbyes? Not cool. Although I choose to believe that he came to the pizza/beer/popcorn get-together on that last night, and asked everybody not to make a fuss at the gate in the morning, because he hates goodbyes. That's the only decent excuse I can come up with for Teyla not at least giving him an Athosian hug (although the one between her and John was heart-melty sweet). But sweet Jeebus, that phone conversation between John and Rodney? I nearly freakin' wet myself - THEY ARE SO MARRIED!!!
Did anyone else notice that John has a dressy version of his wristband? When they're at dinner - he's wearing a stringy bracelet instead of the sweatband. I don't know why I find that so bloody hilarious, but seriously.... love. Just love. What a dork :o)
Okey-dokey, I have also decided to do the friends-filtering thing from now on, so that I am not boring the non-fandom people on my f-list with fannish rambles, and nor am I swamping the Oz fans with all my SGA squee. Hopefully I've managed to get everyone on the right lists and not missed anyone. *crosses fingers*
