Bye Bye Buffy (Sort Of)

We had a quiet day at home, cooking food left from last Sunday's solstice celebration, and watching numerous episodes of Buffy.

It has been months since I first entered the "Buffyverse" with Angel (typically, starting with the later series first), and I'm nearly finished. Actually we watched the last episode today, but the darned pirated discs I bought were faulty and I missed the latter half of the second season. I've found them online though, and will go back and watch them this week. (They're supposed to be pretty hot, involving Buffy and Angel in an apocalyptic deal where Buffy actually kills Angel, the love of her life.)

You can tell vacation is here, huh, if I have time to dwell on crap like this?

We also watched Mickey Rourke in The Wrestler and Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman in Australia. "Meh" and *yawn*.
