Saturday
I slept pretty well last night.
And I wasn’t awakened at an ungodly hour by the cats. Yes, Xena did wake me up this morning when she tried to get into the windowsill… but that was at 9:59. That was acceptable. And, the fact that she was trying to get into the window is another sign that she’s feeling better.

told me about Megas XLR last night. It was on shortly after I woke up, so I watched it. Concept: What if a kid who works in a junkyard found a giant robot? This show answers that question. It was entertaining. Today’s episode, “The Bad Guy,” was an amusing parody of Gatchaman/Battle of the Planets and Voltron. I laughed many times. I’ll probably watch the show again.

After getting showered and dressed, I mused over going to Home Despot. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a chaperone. So, I decided to go it alone. That’s about the time that Jess woke up. She went with me. We were there for about an hour-and-a-half, but we were actually looking at specific things… so I don’t think that was too bad.

I discovered an unexpected source of inspiration at Home Depot: Paint sample cards. Yes, the ones that have different shades of paint on them. When you finish laughing and pick yourself up off the floor: Yes, I have seen these before. Many, many times. I’ve even used them when painting rooms at my parents’ houses. The revelation that I had: Using them would make an excellent way to preview color combinations when setting up websites and templates. I grabbed about 15 of the cards.

Justice League: “Starcrossed” just finished. It was amazing. They pulled out all the stops for this series “finale.” From “Secret Origins” to “Starcrossed,” this series continually amazed me. Tonight’s episode highlighted the best of almost all of the characters; this was made even more impressive since it was a Hawkgirl spotlight episode. (Personal Bias Time: Green Lantern John Stewart is still the man.) They also touched on a couple things from the series’ history and from Batman: The Animated Series and Superman: The Animated Series. I was a little worried when I first heard that Cartoon Network was “ending” the series. I should not have worried.

Quote of the Day
From today’s episode of Duck Dodgers

I am a winner.
I am unstoppable.
I am in excruciating pain.

Time to get a few things done before heading to 2-D Physics.

And did I mention that John Stewart kicked ass? He did. He even got whooped up on, too… but he still dished it out nicely. And the preview shot of him from JLU was tight. August 7th. I’m there.

Namaste.
