Drive-by update
Nov. 17th, 2003 04:08 pmBusy weekend: between a Saturday course for high-school students and paper-marking on Sunday, it really wasn't much of a weekend at all. And of course the paper marking took up so much time that I forgot to do the reading for today's classes until about 10:30 pm on Sunday night. Not very smart, hunh? I've been playing catch-up all day and am still not caught up.
I still do not like Plato or Socrates. Does anyone else think that Socrates is the philosophical version of a Mary Sue? I'm not shocked that the Athenians convicted him.
We did manage to watch some Farscape this weekend: still in Season One, but now out of order. I cannot remember titles, due to the disturbing slowness of my brain, aside from PK Tech Girl. And the one with Larraq: at least I think that's how it's spelled.
I am beginning to lose faith in Carnivale. I enjoy it, but I don't really believe that the writers are going to be able to pull it all together in the next two episodes. They give no impression of knowing what they're doing, aside from leaking out a pitifully small amount of information over twice as much time as is really needed, and fooling around with a bunch of dull B-plots. Still, it has Clancy Brown in it.
So much for fun: back to Greek. And job applications. And going to Safeway, finally.
