Ok, so whoever heard me say I was looking forward to jury service?? If i ever have to do it again and repeat similar sentiments, please, feel free to kick me in the head....
Spent the whole day sitting around waiting to be called, eventually being sent home, after being there for five and a half hours i think. Argh. And I have to go through it all tomorrow. I can't wait til next week when I can actually do what I want with my time, between my two jobs and now my jury service, and before that exam revision and before that end of term essay writing, I feel like i havent had a break in months, which actually yes, i handed all my essays in in April so that was when it started. *sigh* I know this tends to be what real life is like, but I was hoping to be eased in.... ho hum.
Anyway, last week I did manage to go and see Prince Caspian for my birthday. And it was brilliant! I was worried it wouldn't live up to the lion the witch and the wardrobe, but i honestly thought it was better. They're all obviously a little more mature, and it makes the characters (and actors) much more watchable I thought.
In other news I finally saw SGA Search and Rescue, and i would take many words to express my appreciation (or not in some parts), but over all I found it enjoyable. I also caught The Seed yesterday which whilst being a little cliche? maybe not cliche, but something like that?? - in parts i found it enjoyable, was shouting at the screen and everything :)
Whilst I've not been sitting the The Waiting Area of Doom, I've become addicted to Josephine Darcy's The Marriage Stone. It's a Harry Potter SS/HP story (WIP), with the cliche of them being forced into marriage, but in a kind of original way. It's safe to say I've become hooked and read chapter one through seventy in about five days I believe. Safe to say I couldn't recommend it highly enough!!!
Finally, Smallville tomorrow night! *dances* I missed it last week due to my birthday-type happenings so I've got two new episodes (however lame they may end up being, i intend to squee anyway, there's something about that show, i just cant seem to help myself)
