I have recently become interested in viewing some of the original Doctor Who stuff. Some of it is just awful. The Underwater Menace is a perfect example of this. First off, video only exists for the third of the four parts of this story. The other parts are simply black and white photos with descriptive text. The other thing is that the story makes next to no sense. It’s campy, but not awesome. I will not watch it again, but I will pass it on to Courtney to watch.

I spent my weekend doing very domestic and boring things: grocery shopping, laundry, cooking, etc. Alan and I are trying to make a copycat recipe for Tony Roma’s Kickin Shrimp appetizer. We know it has mayo and this awesome Asian sweet chili sauce, but beyond that, we’re still experimenting. Also made a chicken and banana muffins on Saturday, and today chicken noodle soup, and apple crumble.

I am reading my first Arthur C. Clarke book, and so far it’s quite good. Will post a short review when I finish it.

Wednesday evening brought me two new episodes of the lovely Torchwood to download. Started the downloads, told Courtney about it, and went to bed. I woke up excited to see if the torrents were finished, but slept in and had to leave for work almost immediately. As it was Corporate Love Day, spent the evening not watching two brand new episodes of Torchwood, rather spending time with my sweetie. Didn’t get to the shows until tonight.

These are the sacrifices I make for love.

Just as a postscript, Martha Jones kicks ass.
