thistlechaserI can't stop watching this gif.
In unrelated news, I reached the point in my Stargate: Atlantis rewatch where I quit before, and I can kind of see why. I'm going to stick with it though, hopefully it will get better.
In other unrelated news, I'm stressed out of my mind. I can always tell when my stress is at its worst, because I stop eating. (Maybe I need to be stressed more often!) Hopefully actually getting some sleep tonight will help, though I also don't feel like going to bed or sleeping, so who knows.

Date: 2014-05-07 09:19 am (UTC)So sorry you're so stressed. Does it have anything to do with sleep deprivation? I've been reading your sleep study posts, it sounds beyond annoying. Well, I hope you did get a good night's sleep last night.

Date: 2014-05-07 01:26 pm (UTC)I think lack of sleep was probably a big part of it. I'm feeling much better this morning! Thanks. :)

Date: 2014-05-07 03:10 pm (UTC)Unfortunately, wife is aiming to lose about 40lbs. she's very frustrated about it right now - I had to see the doc friday, and I'm down almost 30 from my last physical (in September). I'm not competitive- I'm doing it to try to discover source of some heart problems - but she's very competitive, so she's pissed.

Date: 2014-05-07 03:47 pm (UTC)It's called 5HTP. Yep, sounds like an internet thing, but it's really a vitamin. I get it at Costco and Walgreens. Helps calm mood, and I've never noticed any side effects. I take other meds with it too without problems. My stress levels have plummeted, and my anxiety much lower now. Maybe try it? Doesn't cost much and you can always stop. :) Just know that there's no drastic change. I simply realized I wasn't a huge ball of stress a few days after trying it, and my mind wasn't running in endless anxiety cycles about stupid shit.

Years back it was really worth it, but now it's very questionable.

Date: 2014-05-07 04:52 pm (UTC)$48 was for cat food -- same price I'd pay in the store, but I don't have to lug it home. Doesn't count towards $25.
Fish oil + microwave meals -- the $25 I needed to spend; I needed both and both were at the same or better price than the store.
The two small items I wanted free shipping on -- about $15 total for both
So on one hand, it was all stuff I needed and the prices were what I'd pay elsewhere, but on the other all I would have ordered if given the chance was that one bottle of pills...
Grand total for shipping for all that was $5 (for the cat food). So it's kind of worth it, but more annoying than it used to be.

Date: 2014-05-07 06:51 pm (UTC)I splurged, rare for me, on something I've wanted for over a decade now. It cost me all of $12, but there was absolutely nothing else I wanted on the site, so that $5 shipping fee was worth it. Didn't want to spend like $50 on stuff I didn't want just to get free shipping. Yet I've also done the $25 free shipping from Walgreens as it was stuff I needed.

Hopefully that link works. It's a Blue Canary in the Outlet by the Light Switch, which is kind of a take off of a They Might be Giants song. It's on http://www.thinkgeek.com/

Date: 2014-05-10 02:29 pm (UTC)I might try it once more next weekend just to be sure, but for now I both need a nap and my heart is racing so fast it might just gallop away.
Oh well! Good thought though! :)

Date: 2014-05-07 09:00 pm (UTC)The next ep after she took over had Ronon's former planet-friends ending up as Wraith-worshipers, and I hated the whole ep. It's been the first ep that I haven't liked.
It's just a minor bump in the road, or so I hope. I remember loving the show until this point in the story, then hating it after it. I hope I don't feel the same now.
Was that one of your points?

Date: 2014-05-08 03:27 am (UTC)I really liked Weir, too. I was surprised, since I disliked her during my first viewing. I have no idea why that was, she's a great character, a strong woman, and really interesting.
no subject
Date: 2014-05-09 02:32 am (UTC)My partner watched SG-A before I did, and adored Weir, so again, I was primed to like her. I almost didn't manage it because they had another actress for her introduction in SG-1 (blond and less direct), and Tori Higginson's take on Weir was verra different. But yeah, once I could relax into her being a strong woman with a lot of interesting aspects to her, A+.

Date: 2014-05-09 03:36 am (UTC)I haven't watched an ep today, which is a first since I started rewatching. I don't want to drop the series though, hopefully it'll pull back together and be enjoyable for the last two seasons.

I should give Stargate Atlantis a shot again. I gave up halfway through the first season because I kind of lost interest, but I have the first few seasons on DVD.
