I guess that means I should probably write a little more often. The sad thing is that there hasn’t really been anything great to write about. Life has progressed as normal, well as normal as can be expected with the life that is mine. I have purchased Andrews ticket to come out here. I got a great deal through a site called Kayak. So in roughly a month he will arrive to shake things up around here. It will defiantly be an experience, but I am more then willing and ready.
In other saddening news, it would appear that the great Scotty, James Doohan, has passed away this morning. I don’t believe that in all my years of con going I ever got the chance to meet him, but from what I have heard, he was a great individual. There may be rifts between Star Wars and Star Trek fans, but when it comes down to it, when a good person passes away, everyone connected feels it. So today James Doohan has become one with the force and has beamed up for the last time. Thanks for the Memories Scotty!
On a happier note, the newest trailer for the Serenity movie came out today. For those not in the know, Serenity is the movie that was born from the TV show Firefly. This was a show that was picked up by Fox, but being Fox, they f’d it up beyond belief. The actually aired the episodes out of order, they threw it in a Friday night death slot. I for one loved the show. I started watching when they first aired it and was hooked. I was really upset when the show was canceled. Like wise I was very excited when I found it all on DVD. Last year, when it came out, I sat and did a firefly marathon. It was great to watch all of the shows in the order they were meant to be seen in. So now, about a year later, we prepare for Serenity! There have been two trailers released and both just make me want to see the Movie more and more. Amy has even made plans for when Andrew arrives, we will be sitting and watching the Firefly episodes again to catch him up.
My roommate went to a premiere for Serenity in minneapolis and said it was awesome.
