How was everyone's weekend? Anyone go see any good movies?

(I saw 'Your Highness'. It was...well. I don't know what happened that made me deserve that movie, but I apologize. xD)

I saw Source Code. It was so close to being something really interesting, except then it said, "lol j/k I'm just a cookie-cutter time-travel flick sry :D" And it's a total WASTE of Michelle Monaghan. I kept wanting her character from Kiss Kiss Bang Bang to show up and start getting shit DONE.

I was, however, amused by the fact that, after wondering if my disappointment had something to do with having been hip-deep in Life on Mars for a paper in my David Bowie class for the last week (Source Code is kind of like if LoM and Quantum Leap had a baby and it didn't inherit any of its parents' talents, though it does get bonus points for the sly Scott Bakula cameo), I did a bit of reading online and discovered that Source Code was directed by David Bowie's son. Coincidences are fun.

ADLSKFJA!LKSFD;AL YOUR PAPER. God, I am made of fail. D: D:

When's it due, mate? I promise I will try and find Things that may be helpful. I have so many articles etc on the show, I'm sure there's something in there and I will happily re-watch the commentaries for useful Things to share with you. I'm just completely rubbish at the moment and keep forgetting. If it's not due imminently though, I can certainly devote time on Thursday for going through my stuff for you.

It's due toward the end of the month. My current plan is to rewatch select A2A eps this week and try to start writing this weekend-ish. But I'm really bad at plans, so we'll see how that goes. XD I'm still trying to figure out how to structure the damn thing, though I think I at least know which songs I want to examine most closely in the context of the 'verse (I really wish "The Jean Genie" had been used in an episode that doesn't aggravate me so much, though, ugh).

I don't think I have your email? But mine's in my profile.

Quality! I will hopefully find useful stuff for you by the weekend, then. :D nd my email address is writetolive [at] gmail [dot] com, just in case you need it. Might be helpful if you send over the actual essay title/question actually, then I can look for things in the context of it.

but most importantly ASDKAJQLAKdq!"!" 1X04 aggravates you? How so!? I think it's marvellous. D:

I'll email you my thesis as it stands. Actually, I'll email you my answer about 1x04, too, so I can get in-depth without worrying about spoilers. Though I will say here that the stuff in the ep that is awesome is, indeed, very awesome. And very important.

:D!

I shall look forward to this email! Nothing I like better than an in-depth look at Mars. Endlessly fascinating!

BTW, did you know the writers are on Twitter? One of them might answer a question or two, if you're lucky. And uh...have queries that are less than 140 characters. :\

Email sent, complete with excessive semi-colons and tl;dr. XD

Ooh, I did not know that.
