Life is better without commercials.

Probably the single best thing about TIVO or any other DVR system is the ability to fast forward the commercials. Having to watch them since when I'm up at Lawton with Hubby is singularly annoying. I'm even starting to hate the Free Credit Report guy who I generally like. ALL the drug companies are on my shit list and I could kill the Geico Gecko, or at least the old corporate guy he's been interacting with.

Tonight I brought up Hubby's laptop and a bunch of NCIS disks from the first season. Not 1, 2 and 3 because etiher I or Netflix screwed up, but it doesn't seem to matter, as the show from what I can tell is not big on arcs. Four episodes. NO COMMERCIALS. Bliss.

I'm keeping up with LJ, but skimming a lot of stuff. Fics over 1000 words go on a print list so you may not see comments for awhile.

There will be a Monday pimp post and the Chelsea Drugstore Slate for the Children of Time Awards.

I got some time in at the Mint today. Mostly hung out with Peggy. I sang If I Can Dream by Elvis Presley and The Young Ones by Cliff Richard. Peggy and I also did Suddenly in our best Cliff and Olivia imitation. This fact is somewhat relevant to tomorrow's mmom fic. Then I got some Gyoza and sushi from the sushi bar next to the Mint and went up to see hubby.

I'm still on for my night off for the House Season Finale Party. I'm pretty sure it's gonna suck, but I wouldn't miss it for anything.

Due to the current situation, I obviously will not be seeing the new Star Trek movie.

Now I'm going to crosspost a bunch of this weeks wankfics, watch Ashes to Ashes and try and get some sleep.
