Dammit.

Late Friday, after all my players had gone home, I went to bed.

And immediately was in huge pain. From my right hip all the way to my toes, there was a terrible, pinching pain no matter what I did. Walk it off? No. Stretch it out? No. Saw it off with a sharp knife? Nope. The only way I got to sleep was at 4am when I slapped a Salonpas patch on my hip and lower back -- that distracted me from the pain and I managed to sleep.

It's lessened, but since then my foot has been partially numb and partially tingly. Fortunately it's not pins-and-needles, more a pleasant sort of tingle, but I don't like it regardless.

On the plus side, it seems to fade a little each day. Hopefully it'll be gone today or tomorrow.

Not sure what this says, but I found it amusing.

"About Schmidt", in 816 theatres, averaged a healthy $10,723
"Chicago", in 304 theatres, averaged $16,500

Saturday, Matt came over to watch the first 8 episodes of Babylon 5. I could see in his face that even though some of season 1 truly sucks ugly donkey, he's beginning to get it. And it was fun to watch someone react appropriately to Londo's jokes.

Ok, two things:

1) Please, one of you with a VCR must tape Farscape this weekend -- I doubt I'll have time to watch from the hotel, and it's the first new episode.

2) Ben Browder speaks )

Incredibly selfish people who don't realize they are bug the hell out of me.

Ever realize how it's 10,000 times easier to find other people's reprehensible behaviors than your own?

Too often with sci-fi, gizmos come first and characters are an afterthought. I knew more about the Firefly characters after five episodes than I do about the Enterprise characters after more than a full season.


Yep.
