BATTLEAWESOME AWESOMESTAR
Jan. 21st, 2009 08:10 amFirstly, congrats to all my fine American friends! *throws confetti* I admit to getting just a wee bit teary myself when watching the proceedings. Just a little. ;)
Also, and I realize I may be alone in this, I've actually really been enjoying being outside in the bone-chilling temperatures of the last ten days or so. (And I should add that's in part because I don't have to spend very long outside at a time - generally just getting to and from work. There's something very...cleansing about it. My grandmother was right: it IS brisk and bracing. Though it helps that I like it because I have warm, warm clothes, so it's just my face that gets cold, not my body. That's at work. :P Stupid desk against an outside uninsulated wall. *kicks it*
And because I blather on so much about That One Show Wot I Love (new episodes, wheee!), I thought this time I'd focus on a different one: Battlestar Galactica! They're back, yaaay! I'll put my few thoughts about the webisodes and this first episode so far under a cut, but I also had to share this exchange from an improv show I went to last weekend called Battleawesome Awesomestar (see, this post title isn't a spoiler, it's the name of the show! *beams*). It was based on the loose script of the cylons having sabotaged something, with the audience choosing the something. It ended up being cellphones and toothbrushes, which led to the following exchange.
Also, there seems to be a vid of another bit I really liked on YouTube
Hee! Okay, maybe I just amuse easily. Anyway, if any Torontonians are interested, the show runs for another couple of Saturdays; details here.

President Laura Roslin (who has cancer, for those who don't watch the show), dramatically, after she realizes her toothbrush is gone: I have CANCER and I have PLAQUE. And there's only one of those things I can do anything about!
Billy (her aide): *nods sympathetically, then looks puzzled* ...wait, you mean the plaque, righ-
Roslin: YES I MEAN THE PLAQUE!
