icepixieForces of fate, why do you conspire against me so? This weekend, I:
- am in the beginning, bleurgy stages of a cold
- have to take the Spanish translation exam this afternoon (gods of pseudoephedrine and ibuprofen, buoy me now)
- need to write my project proposal for the pedagogy class
- have to see the Watchmen movie for the 102 class
- lose an hour thanks to Daylight Saving Time
Uggghhhh. At least I've already done the annotated bib that goes with that proposal.

Thoughts on this week's BSG:
These are short and sweet because I feel like crap.
First of all: YAY LAURA ROSLIN IS NOT YET DEAD! Although she looks pretty bad. Cylon hybrid blood, stat! But that was a nice scene between her and Bill. Awww, he's her home. Her home with which she smokes medicinal weed.
Second of all: I totally called the Head!Visions as angels! Woot! (Of course, this is Baltar talking, and when I was speculating, I was thinking of Anders's reference to angels, but I'll take it.)
Other than that, um...we got to see that Boomer is the universe's worst babysitter? Oh, and we saw what they've been saving their effects budget for. I was thinking somehow that the colony was a planet, not a ship, but it's interesting nonetheless. (Also, raise your hand if, at the first sight of it, you thought, "Shadows inhabit the BSGverse too?") Oh, and Adama finally decided to abandon Galactica. Poor, poor Galactica.
- I see they used some of the deleted Adama/Roslin storyline from last week in the preview. Man, I want to see that.
- Opera house! Yay! Even if it was only briefly! And I see Baltar and Six are still aligned with the eeeevil baby-stealing Cylons in this vision. Hrm.
- Heh, Adama is done with destiny.
- Bwahahahaha. Tigh is not ready for millions of children.
- Anders wakes up! And is a ship-hybrid. Whoops. Apparently he also thinks Kara is the Harbinger of Death. I wonder, though, given Baltar's ramblings about how she's crossed over and come back or whatever he was on about, is she the harbinger of human resurrection? Through death, eternal life? Everyone's gonna live forever? (Fame!)
- And before that, Baltar got his science on! Huh. I'd kind of forgotten he was a scientist.
- His outing of Kara is totally going to lead to threats on her life, no matter how sweet Lee is about it. But I guess she can take on anyone who tries to kill her.
Okay, that's all I've got. This was another one where actually a lot happened, but it didn't really feel like it for some reason. And now we just have the three-part finale... *sniff*

You and me, both. I also wonder who he had to bribe to get to the equipment...
Perhaps he has a line on cigarettes and managed to do some business with Cottle?
