So last night I was terribly excited because Bete Noir was on but ultimately I decided not to watch it because my levels of NCIS crazy are, well, making me crazy(-ier). I did however randomly decide to go down at 11pm and watch Numb3rs, though. On a real television! It was season 2, Bettor or Worse. I remembered that I actually enjoyed season 2 a lot. I also realised that between S2 and S4, Dylan Bruno's arms have near doubled in mass. That can't be healthy, right?
Then I watched CSI:NY whilst The Flatmate slept on my bed. All was good. (I'm sort of psyched by how awesome CSI:NY is this year? Because it really is!)

This morning I woke up at 0800, then rolled over and fell asleep until 0930. Oops? Got to the library just before 1100 and was there until 1630. I HAVE READ SO MUCH SHELLEY TODAY, GUYS. (Also: John Clare who believed he actually WAS Byron.!) Tomorrow I have to organise my notes and write a 5-10 minute presentation that I have to give on Monday afternoon. I also need to do my Experimental Writing piece. I think I'll do the word list in a minute, actually.

Tonight I will be cooking (I have peppers! And hopefully I also have half an onion otherwise I'm going to have to make a run to the One Stop) and watching NCIS, despite what I said above. But it's on at 2000 and I can cook and eat and watch, and it's all good. (The episode is Boxed In. UM. This will be the forth time I'm watching it. FOURTH.) In a minute I'm going to watch this week's Numb3rs and after NCIS I'm going to watch CSI and - AND! - the Women's Murder Club pilot. If it turns out to be rubbish, I'll just skip to the arts with Angie Harmon in it as she's obviously the only reason I'm watching.
The real debate, though, is whether to watch new CSI or to watch the repeat that's showing - Redrum! With Keppler! With angsty!team! Hmmm. HMMMM. DECISIONS, SO MANY DECISIONS.

Did I mention how much I loved the tone of the Keppler arc? The direction and music changed a fair amount, and I really loved it. Those four episodes were so creepy and atmospheric. And because I wasn't really invested in the miniature killer until the end of the season (and even then: not really) I felt like the Keppler arc was refreshing and stimulating narrative. Love!

Oh, earlier this week I collected my essays from last year, including my asstastic research skills/dissertation proposal grade. So. I mean, the plan was to start looking at my texts for the second/third time this week and then get to work on a format. But that's just not going to happen. For one thing, I think I need to reduce the number of texts I'm looking at (I'm tempted to drop Atwood, actually, for a number of reasons). For another, I need to rework my plan of action, obviously, because if my proposal wasn't up to scratch, then something is wrong. The actual paper will only be 8k which sounds like a lot, but I wrote a 4k essay last year and in the end it turned out not to be enough (hahaha, I actually aced that paper, yay; I was reading the feedback today and it made me all internally-glowy). SO: STRESSFUL. And in the dumb way, too. I'm more worried about my external research than the texts. I know what I want to say about them.

Date: 2007-10-13 05:15 pm (UTC)Though I have been watching late season 4 NCIS and loving it. The episode with McGee's book becoming the case filled me with lol. Especially Abbey's outfit. It was clearly win-ful!
I'm tempted to watch boxed in because of the Tony/Ziva but I also need to be getting ready then too.
