The vision never dies / Life’s a never ending wheel

And so ends the episode coverage of Cadillacs And Dinosaurs. It’s been an entertaining run, and I’m glad to have given a bit of attention to a cartoon I actually like and not just something I covered solely because it’s a video game adaptation (it was nice to have an opportunity to riff on their general sloppiness, but summarising both House of the Dead movies was a bit of a slog). There’ll be the usual intro and character pages soon enough, but I’ll also be making a page comparing it to the original comic and the changes made in its transition to television, which should be pretty fun!

Also today’s episode has an image of Hannah’s ass, so you know I’m looking out for you, Wes. =P

Like Withnail & I, it’s been suggested to me a million times and I’ve turned it down continuously in favour of something else, and now I’ve finally decided to watch Unleashed, also known by the rather silly-if-contextually-appropriate Danny The Dog in some regions. I was very, very impressed.

Super Fox Watcher II Hyper Watching

I went fox watching last night. My uncle is always talking about the seemingly millions upon billions of foxes he sees practically everywhere, from just outside his house to driving home from Ballymena, to even the leisure centre car park near his neighbourhood; the guy’s freakin’ tripping over foxes from the sounds of it. So he phoned me and told me about a group of them he’d seen consistently every night this week in the leisure centre car park, and would I be interested in tagging along? So I was like, yeah, cool!

Two hours and we didn’t see a single fox.

We didn’t even see any bats.

We did see a cat, though.

I once wrote a story where a guy’s fart killed a man

Current mood: ehhh

Listening to: Just Love – The Strawbs (yeah the name’s a bit dorky but my god is it rockin’)

When I’m mildly depressed (read: unable to be adequately productive), I tend to look back at things I did earlier in life and just think it over, and although it’s a pretty dumb thing to do (because when you’re wallowing in self-pity the best thing you want to do is do it even more), it does offer food for thought and a mildly different way to look on my current situation. For instance, one of the many things I am currently pissed about at this point in time is that I’m having difficulty just sitting down and writing some fiction.
