Firefly, updates and other related stuff

[wiseheart]

Watched the Firefly episode "Bushwhacked" on Saturday night. Still am not very impressed, but at least this time we got something vaguely sci-fi. I decided I like the blond pilot (Zoe's hubby) best.

I also watched the movie "Starship Troopers 2" last night. Gah, was it abysmally bad! I knew what the outcome would be within the first 20 minutes, and after that, watching the low-budget troopers fight low-budget CGI bugs in dark corridors just wasn't interesting. I mean, the first movie was so incredibly stupid it almost made it charming, and at least they had some likeable characters and pretty CGI. Not to mention the beautiful spaceship. This? Was crap. I want those two hours of my life back. Especially as they showed the film starting 23.05.

I've updated "A Touch of the Wild", my Criminal Minds/Pathways crossover. It's posted to both FF.Net and hiddenrealms. Has lots of Spencer Reid and lots of vampires, if you're interested in that kind of stuff.

Mum continues doing reasonable well. She still rests a lot, which is necessary, but is getting more and more active. We're very worried about our old doctor, who goes to the same clinic today because of a tumor on his pancreas, which might or might not be operable. We've visited him last week during one of our short walks (he lives in the next street) and hope he will turn out okay, too. Beyond 80, you just can't be sure. Ah, well.

Good to hear your mother is becoming more active. :-)

>>We're very worried about our old doctor<<
Your old doctor, is he the one who came to visit your mother in hospital? Sounds like a nice man.

I haven't watched Starship Troopers 2, but for 1 my advice is to just watch it from the perspective of a parody. That improves the movie immensely. XD

Whoops, clicked "send" before I was done!

I'm glad that your Mum is getting more active. I guess it just takes a while for her to recover after that horrible ordeal she's been through. Hope your old doctor will be okay! Is he the one you invited for dinner a while ago?

Glad your mum is doing well, and good wishes for your doctor; it's clear how you both value his friendship.

I can't remember what comes after 'Bushwhacked', but I think the episodes definitely get stronger as they go on.

I'm delighted to hear Mum continues to mend... and so sorry about your beloved doctor's condition. He seems like a fine friend and a kind soul. Here's hoping his own prognosis will be a good one.

It's so nice to hear Mum is continuing to improve. As for your poor sick old Doctor, visiting him is great, it will give some support which he doubt badly needs. Fingers crossed for him too!
