sands through the hourglass

I can't say I love this new template but having gone to all the trouble of selecting it I will stick with it for a few days.

I was not feeling well (something to do with that healthy juice I had at Melbourne Central around 6:30) so I dozed and then awoke at midnight to watch the final Six Feet Under. Great ending. I don't feel I can discuss it too extensively here since practically everyone I know is up to series 3. I can't really understand why this is so, but it is so. Then I couldn't sleep for hours, not probably because of the excitement of the ending of 6FU but just because I'd had a little sleep and then was intending on more of the same. Mia says my body was confused but how does that figure? My body knows what's going on, or it should, that's why it has a head and brain on it.

Meanwhile Neighbours is at this point going through a heavy teen pregnancy schtick which I am not particularly up for. I suppose I know why teen pregnancy is so important to a show like Neighbours but I also had hoped we had all moved on from this kind of stock issue. It seems so moralistic and conventional. I would rather have the Robert/Cameron thing or Katya/Toady - that was top stuff.
