I did so much archaeological illustration today that my brain completely melted. I had to really concentrate to prevent myself doing daft things, like, for instance, stepping out in front of traffic. Ah well, I made it home. ;)

Didn't do much Sunday, so I won't bore you with that. Although I did watch City Hunter. You might recall that I bought a Jackie Chan box set a while back, and I'd only managed to watch one of the three DVD's. Well, now I've watched two. Go me.

City Hunter was... bad. You could tell it was supposed to be really funny, but I didn't laugh that much. It's either not something that Western audiences relate to so well, or it's me. I do have a problem finding some comedies amusing. The slapstick thing sometimes passes me by. But there was one thing that made me laugh a lot - the Street Fighter fight. Everyone kept turning into characters from Street Fighter, you see. Jackie Chan was Chun Li at one stage. Hee...

Um... I watched some Stargate too. I watched Descent, Frozen, Descent with Peter DeLuise and Gary Jones's commentary, and today I watched Nightwalkers. I'd forgotten how good the beginning of series 6 was! Hopefully I've forgotten how good the entire series was, and it'll keep being great. If you know what I mean. The introduction of Jonas makes for some great lines. I love the "alien conspiracy" thing with Teal'c, and the "first time in a Death Glider" thing, and the way Carter distracts Jonas with offers of lunch. It's all so well written! Ah, this is why I love Stargate so much. Quality. :)

Anyway, today I went into uni, talked to my supervisor-to-be about my dissertation proposal (due in Friday), did hours of illustration, went to the library, managed to photocopy some articles (haven't checked to see if they're what I meant to copy, but hey), went to Safeway on the way home, then collapsed and watched Nightwalkers. Yaay for Jonas and his onion rings dipped in chocolate milkshake!

I've tried playing Medieval Total War, a bit, but I haven't enjoyed it much. I end up hopelessly trying to make my land profitable, then I fight battles and mess things up and get even more annoyed. Perhaps I'll sell it and buy Splinter Cell. ;)

Oh, and Alias was totally fantastic tonight. I love Marshall, he's so funny. He's the tech guy, he's just so amusing. (You've noticed the overuse of italics tonight, right? *grin*) But he was in tonight's episode a lot, and now... terrible things! Aargh!!!! I can't wait for next week!

Although it looks like I will have to wait for The Dead Zone. Looks like the reason it suddenly disappeared is that we've caught up with America. Presumably they have the same hiatus thing with all their shows, where they have a break in the middle. Which is why we always finish watching the new series of Stargate in the UK before America. Ha.

From tonight's entry you'd think all I ever do is watch TV. ;)

I have been mostly... WATCHING (DVD): stargate S6 (descent, frozen, nightwalkers); city hunter / WATCHING (TV): neighbours (bbc 1); firefly (sci-fi); alias (sky 1) / READING: outcast (josephine cox) / LISTENING: a funk odyssey (jamiroquai) / PLAYING (PC): medieval total war
