Television on the Edge of Forever
I completely missed the 45th anniversary of the premier of original Trek last week. For others who care, this is a great little article:

This is one of the stranger entries I’ve made. I started with the intention of making this a comment in Wolf’s journal, but it just got way too big. By the way, what do you know about Uveitis or honer’s syndrome? Both eye related problems.. and it would have been bilateral. If it’s alright that…
The Ex just called to announce he’s coming over TONIGHT to pick up the freaking desk. Which means he and The Professor are going to be there simultaneously. Thank heaven I couldn’t sleep last night and finished emptying the desk. This is not what I need after the freaking dental appointment, over which I am…
I was tired enough last night that I decided to drag my sorry carcass to bed at 8:00. I ate a little dinner first, but really didn’t want it. I found “Andy Griffith” on the tube, and kept that on as noise to keep me company while I ate; Tuesday is when the Socialist has…
So I was talking with a male friend yesterday online, someone who I respect rather highly. In the midst of the conversation (which was sort of a back and forth joke about what do guys/gals really want) he said: From what I’ve seen especially over at the diary site in many hostile entries, it’s very…

What a lovely walk down memory lane! Thank you! I was lucky, my Mom loved TOS, so I got to watch them all as a kid. One of my boyfriend "tests" has always been whether or not they enjoyed TOS. If they hadn’t ever watched, I’d turn it on and watch him watching the show. A bad reaction to the show, Shatner bad acting criticisms aside, meant that relationship was a no-go.
