Death, you are my bitch lover.

So, I'm finally set up in the dorm with the laptop. It's hella nice, though I fear it will prove to be hella distracting by the same token. I've been able to concentrate surprisingly well in the dorm so far. I do wish my goddamn mouse would work, though. I hate using the touchpad.

House, MD season 3 starts this evening. I still need to watch the finale of the second season. Hopefully there won't be spoilers I don't already know if I don't get to watching that in the next three hours.

Had an interesting weekend. I attended an unusual number of parties (the usual number is zero) for Labor Day, both of which were held by noodle_o_doom or her relatives, given that she is going off to college next week, along with all of the East Coast people. It was a fun time. I got a lot of free food.

The Venture Brothers was excellent this week, again. Hopefully this streak will continue to the end of the season. I dug the (very large, very blatant) Red Dragon reference, among other things. Like the hot Dr. Venture-on-robot soapy action and Dean's sixteen-year-old horny ramblings. Muy caliente.

Oh, and as most people have already posted: rest in peace, Steve Irwin. You were a crazy bastard, and it's bloody ironic that of all things, a stingray got you (even I've petted a stingray), given that you seemed like one of those fictitious-legendary-otherworldly people that Just Can't Die. And best wishes to his family. I can't imagine losing a spouse/father in such a sudden and bizarre manner. Maybe in some part of their minds they had prepared themselves to lose him to a croc, but I'm sure there was no worry when he said he was going to film some stingrays. Irony's a bitch.

I liken it to the shock of losing James Bond to lightning. That wasn't aimed at him by an arch enemy. Just pedestrian, natural lightning.

Lauren, it's time to tell you the things that every kid your age has known for like, five years.

Tell me, please, Daddy. Let me know.

And Dean is sixteen, right? More like most kids have known for ten or more years.

Did you watch tonight's episode of House? More importantly, did you see the scenes for the next episode? We about died laughing. I'm glad House is back on though.

Also, my mom watched part of that Venture Brothers episode with us. She made the funniest face when Dr. Venture was sudding up his robot. Things are a lot better with the Monarch around, too.

THE MONARCH IS LOVE.

And, yeah, I caught House. It was interesting. Don't remember laughing at the next episode preview, though.

This kid is talking about being abducted by aliens, then House comes in and says they can't identify some substance on him. It made me think of "House MD meets the X-Files."

Oh, yeah, I remember that now.
