Lousy weather knocked me out with another headache. Spent most of the night curled up on the couch watching TV, and couldn't even give proper attention to my Tivoed copy of The Lion in Winter, which I personally think is totally unfair. I mean if you're going to be knocked out on the couch then you should at least be able to watch Patrick Stewart for comfort. Or just have him comforting you directly.
Still, was able to watch the Bravo marathon of, erm, okay for all that I watched hours of it I forget the name but it's the miniseries about how various things like homosexuality, women, sex, and violence were shown on TV. Nice show, and even had Buffy shout-outs complete with Joss offering brief commentary, however apparently 90% of all TV is All in the Family, Dynasty, All My Children, Xena, Baywatch, thirtysomething, Ally McBeal, Buffy, and Sex and the City. So if you were somehow thinking that there were any other significant shows out there chances are you were very, very wrong. Oh, sure, your Murphy Browns and your NYPD Blues might have been on for a second, but that's it! There was nothing else on television that influenced anything ever.
Also? It's amazing to watch Joss say "Buffy was allowed to have sex and never get punished for that" and still manage to keep a straight face. Gotta give the boy credit.
Thanks muchly to all those who gave some idea of what my options might be re: container gardening. Assuming the headache allows I'll be going to my local nursery tomorrow to pick up some plants, so I'll take final suggestions from them and see what I come home with. As for the huge drawer of mystery, as I have no shoeboxes handy I came upon the idea of using ice cube holders to help section things out. Too headachy when I got home to actually try organizing, but if I'm feeling better tomorrow I shall try that too.
There's also all sorts of cooking I'll be doing this weekend. Further bulletins on that as events warrent. Though I'm here to tell you that milk really can boil over in the half-second it takes you to blink while staring at the milk to make sure it doesn't boil over. Just in case you were wondering about that.
Tomorrow's lesson: whether or not soaking things overnight will help remove charred milk. 8)
