Bravo! Via TLC, A comma has been inserted into the new GoF teaser poster! If only a similar alteration had been made by the promoters of “Two Weeks Notice”! I was at the point where if it hadn’t been changed by this week, I would have photomanipped it myself for my own sanity. I’m actually not the much of a grammar nazi usually, but for some reason, this majorly irked me.

In other news, I’m feeling fabulous now. I’m healing rapidly, if the amount of blood on the gauze is any indicator, and I’m in no pain. I don’t think I’m quite ready for solid foods (or “almost solid” my fellow Zdob si Zdub friends might joke), but I don’t doubt that tomorrow I’ll be macaroni-ing and mashed potato-ing with the best of ’em. All the numbness is gone, and I’ve been yapping up a storm to try to get the stiffness out of my jaw, as it doesn’t hurt to talk anymore. I spent quite some time talking to Mom about Star Wars and Firefly and Cyth’s comments about the use of props in Lost‘s “Whatever the Case May Be” versus Firefly‘s “War Stories”, and just how astonishingly well-written Firefly was. I really wish she’d posted her thoughts in her LJ, as she came up with some really intriguing points.

I also talked about how Firefly brought the concept of a “used future” to a new level, and how disappointing it was that George Lucas seems to have left it by the wayside, favoring the shinier, more immaculate look preferred by shows like “Star Trek”. It’s especially disappointing, as George Lucas’ original trilogy was one of the main driving forces behind bringing the concept of the “used future” into the popular consciousness.

It’s so wonderful to just be able to talk, without having to worry about not getting work done. It still hasn’t sunk in that I’m free for the summer, and that I no longer have five massive projects hovering over my head. And now, I’m off to watch the Gene Wilder version of Willy Wonka. Huzzah! I have time to see movies again!
