icepixieFirst of all: my new laptop and new iPod are AWESOME LIKE SOME AWESOMELY AWESOME THINGS. I can watch streaming video without resizing it to squinty vision! I can run the latest system software! Photoshop opens really, really quickly!
Also, the iPod has a color screen. And holds more music than I could even dream of owning. (For reference, I moved from a third gen to a sixth gen. It's pretty amazing.)
Second of all, Friday I watched...a good Voyager ep. From season seven. About CHAKOTAY.
I know, I'm shocked too. But yes, "Shattered" is actually not crap. Heh, I loved Present!Chakotay meeting up with pre-DQ!Janeway. She's all, "Uh, where the hell did you come from? TO THE BRIG WITH YOU!" and he magically talks her into running around the ship with him spraying time particles into the ship's squishyware instead of tossing him in jail, and it was awesome. I don't remember them being that interesting together since sometime in season three. (And of course, at the end of the episode, she's all, "Seven years stranded together, huh? What DO we get up to? *wink wink nudge nudge*" Yeah, yeah, "some barriers we don't cross," except for the part where you were TOTALLY DATING in S3, and god only knows what you got up to in "Resolutions" during those two months we didn't see.)
(...I miss season three. It was by far the best of the ones I watched. Well, at least in my thirteen-year-old self's opinion. Possibly, were I to be foolish enough to rewatch the whole thing now, I would change that.)
Anyway, we also got to see SESKA, YAY, and a really angry early B'Elanna, and it was actually all very well-done, although I think Chakotay explained the "the timeline has been shattered; different time periods exist all over the ship" thing about three times too many, but whatever. I'll chose to think of it as endearing repetition, like I do "I came to Chicago on the trail of the killers of my father...", because if I don't, I will scream.
Totally random: I wandered into the a capella section of iTunes (finding a fabulous all-female rendition of "She Will Be Loved," by the Duke Out of the Blue, that you should all check out), and found out that the MIT representative on those numerous Best of College a Capella* compilations is called "The MIT Logarhythms."
Of course it is.
* That's abbreviated "BOCA." Spanish-speakers, snicker with me now.

Hee! Can you imagine Cap'n Katie serving hotdogs and dipping cones?

Actually, I did think that. Cause it took me a sec on the DQ thing, too.
Janeway in a paper red hat with a totally not-fake smile, her hair still long and pulled into a braid over her shoulder, handing out ice cream cones to a bunch of little kids who have chocolate and vanilla all over there faces. It was kind of adorable in a "dude, wtf brain?!" kind of way.
