every single time I think I can never be more miserable with my apparent surgical attachment to this awful tumor of a show, I am proved horribly, horribly wrong.

Former Heroes star Adrian Pasdar arrested for DUI.

GODDAMMIT. OH GODDAMMIT.

ADRIAN YOU WERE LIKE THE ONLY PART OF THIS MASOCHISTIC OBSESSION I COULD CONSISTENTLY TRUST TO NOT DO ME HARM AND NOW YOU LET ME DOWN TOO. DRUNK DRIVING? SHIT IS NOT OKAY.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFAAAAAACK

In other news, thanks so much to everyone who posted to my other entry – the support really meant a lot to me, even if, for the reasons I mentioned in that post, it's difficult for me to sit down and reply to everyone. ;; ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ (Though to clarify and so people aren't alarmed, my bank account being in the negative and me having to use credit cards are two completely unrelated issues. XD;;; I'm only like... nine bucks in debt. Still need to take care of that shit, though.)

Also, turns out my mom had already paid for the gas and electric. .......and then suddenly my water stopped working properly. WHY? I DO NOT KNOW. I HAVE TO PRACTICALLY TAKE SPONGE BATHS WITH MY LITTLE TRICKLE FROM THE SHOWER HEAD. DAD PLEASE FIX IT

Annnnnnd I need to shift change and sleep because I'm already only gonna get like four hours. ;;

Was gonna blog on the episode (kinda retarded up until the v. enjoyable end) but there are more pressing matters at hand, apparently.

( Definite upcoming spoilers for Heroes. )

Evening ruined. Back to apps.

It seems that both of my favorite characters have degenerated into one-dimensional shells of their former selves, sacrificed as plot devices for a murky story and a desperate theme that has been shoved so far down our collective throats that it's somewhere in my gut right now. And that's where it hurts when I see these fictional people I adore mangled for no good reason and in ways from which there is no recovery – deep in my gut.

I feel so incredibly stupid getting worked up over a show and becoming an unpleasantly angry person in the aftermath. I hate being that person on your flist who can't shut up about how much they dislike something even as they continue indulging in it, so I figure maybe I'll do what I should – quit watching for good this time. Maybe Bryan Fuller can save the show as a whole, but he sure as hell can't save Nathan and Sylar.

( Vague spoilers for tonight's episode. )

But I guess, in Heroes-land, a multi-faceted character must be turned into an embodiment of their single most superficial and thus obvious characteristic in the interest of fitting as many comic book clichés as the writers can possibly come up with. Fuck. this. shit. But hey, maybe I'll come crawling back like I always do. Crawl back and come away crying. :(

In other news that should probably be more important, I am up at Lake Tahoe and looking forward to skiing. SNOW. This is such a novelty for me. :X

Okay.

I caught up on season 3, and while I originally planned to do a huge ranting post and I possibly still am going to write an essay on how many things brought up in season 3 literally do not make any logical sense when compared to the timeline and plot in the rest of the entire series, for now, all I have to say – and I mean this in the most negative way possible – is:

Holy fucking christ.

Jon Stewart has a public service announcement for you, friends list.



'Nuff said.

Going first thing in the morning with my parents to cast our ballots. I've got this weird mix of excitement and anxiety in the pit of my stomach. Jesus, guys, this election season has been crazy. I myself am one of those people guilty of impulsively checking the CNN/NYTimes/LATimes/Electoral-Vote.com sites every hour or so for updates these past few weeks. If Obama wins, I will have some faith in my country for the first time in my adult life. If Prop 8 wins, I will lose all faith in my state. Then again, one of my favorite characters right now is a flying politician with dreams of dictatorship and a libido the size of a jet-liner. Oh, and apparently with the habit to suddenly and inexplicably bible-thump. So what do I know?

Oh, and speaking of which, on Jeph Loeb being fired from Heroes? GOOD RIDDANCE. I'm sorry, but I've got to side with the league of corporate evil on this one; it's not like the network canned him out of nowhere – while he might have been with the show from the start, he and his cohorts had an entire season and a half to make the show not suck and instead they drove it further into the ground. I mean, I saw this man talking about season 2 as if it was full of amazingly great ideas in person. Kinda kills sympathy for a guy. Given a) the ratings drop, b) the plot quality (or lack thereof), c) the out-of-character developments, and d) the fact that I'm apparently not the only one with issues in the big news world (HINT HINT ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY COVER STORY), the decision is pretty goddamn justified. I have no pity and my only concern is that NBC will stupidly bring on people who know even less what they're doing. But hey, at least they'll have an excuse for being completely oblivious about their own show.

Annnnd that's my quota for political/trivial ranting for now. BACK TO MY SPEECH PROJECT. Yes, another one. D: After this, I should hopefully be able to uh FINISH READING APPS.

I am up late working on this Speech project! Woooo! It's kind of weird that having Sunny playing in the background is actually good for my work ethic. I can't explain it. See, I'm not having it play right now and I'm procrastinating with this entry! For shame, Erin.

I felt obligated to post because I haven't made a real update in more than two weeks. Aside from various show squees being missed in the midst of the birthday-squashed month, I also visited my brother in Washington D.C., visited Court with Andrew in Santa Barbara, and I quit Heroes.

That's right.

( Quiet raging. Spoilers for That Season. )

Meanwhile, Sunny is giving me multiple men on cramped beds, House is giving me psychological House/Wilson porn, and Supernatural is giving me yellow-eyed Sam and this.

Epic fail, Heroes. Truly. epic. fail.
