You'll note I did not list Heroes here--because while I have a singular respect for that episode, I have mixed feelings about it. But I will mention the most powerful scene to me--when Daniel looks up while standing beside the empty bed in the infirmary after explaining how many times Janet saved him. I'll start sniffling thinking about it.
So, there's my D/J episode favorites, it'd take forever to list all the little D/J moments I love throughout the series. And while I am finding myself, three years after Heroes, warming to Daniel/Vala--I admit, Daniel/Janet will always be MY ship from SG-1.
Sorry to wax D/J there on you all...but tomorrow, I promise, something different in my continuation of my most monumental/favorite/meaningful SG episodes.
As I prepare for another day of class and work--I was going through a journal to see what articles were out this month for an assignment...and found one on new media technology...
by a James Potter and Katheryn Riddle.
Needless to say, every reference after the first was "Potter and Riddle" and such and well...you all know where my mind went immediately, two mortal enemies... Apologies to those poor scholars, who either laughed at this when they realized it, or remain entirely clueless. (My professor, who edits the journal, I am sure had no idea that smile that would bring to my face when I read it).
Stupid, but something to make me smile to start off the day!
Because I'm feeling somewhat sentimental with it being SG-1's finale week, each night I am going to post my thoughts on a particularly meaningful or influential episode of SG-1 (at least to me!)
I'm going to start with the episode that got me into the whole wide wonderful, crazy world of SG-1. (Special shout out here to Marty and Sheryl, who introduced me to the series with this episode)
Agree? Disagree? Have something else to say or does this spark an SG-1 memory or episode in you? Feel free to comment, I'd love to hear what you think or your SG-1 memories!
Now if that quote from an SG-1 fan doesn't sum up Ba'al...I don't know what does. :) Although I'm not sure I'd give him 'pure' evil, but hey, he's definitely the handsomest Gou'ald!
I must admit, after sniffling (again) through "Heroes Pt. 2" I am smiling to read some of these comments they keep scrolling across the screen during these non-ending SG episodes. People really will say anything I guess.
Sigh. I think it's just beginning to hit that as of this Friday, my SG-1 is gone. Sigh.
So, I ended up with an OoTP Hermione after my visit to Spencer gifts the other day--went in looking for a gag gift for a friend, emerged with Hermione, and a pledge to return for Sirius.
Then found a special set of Fred/George figures online. So, yep, I ordered them as well. I am so pathetic. Not like I don't have enough action figures already, and I still need Sam, Teal'c, and Cam to round out SG-1. We haven't even though about Atlantis figures yet.
I so don't have this money to be spending. This is what happens when one has too much stress in ones life--one spends money one does not have. Sigh.
to "The 4400." I knew once I started watching the DVD's I'd get hooked and no surprise here, I am. I've made it through Season 2 ... and caught up on 3 and 4 to be ready for Sunday's premiere, even though I won't have actually seen 3 and 4.
Sigh. I still feel guilty not doing work this week. But that changes next week when summer classes start. Joy.
In an effort to get away from pulling my hair out over computer issues, I decided to add a picture or two to my front hallway--and realized that I now officially have a 'wall of men.' Pictures of my favorite men, with space to make it a "hall" of men sooner or later. (Photo forthcoming-but they include my favorite SG and SGA doctors and leaders, vampires, brothers (including the Twins), and two SUPPOSEDLY evil geniuses (but both I think have redemptive qualities), with more to come)
My parents are going to have a heart attack when next they visit, but I'm rather enjoying it.
Ah the stupid things that make me smile for a moment. Sigh. How old am I?
