WHOO-HOO, I HAVE JOINED THE 21ST CENTURY! Got uTorrent downloaded (thank you Frank, very user-friendly), and seem to have gotten things going by pressing "OK" buttons a lot.

Ugh. ...16% in...HOW many minutes? Is this how bloody slow torrents download?! Fecking hell. I might be better off trying to find an avi. file on Sendspace or something. Except I'd probably have to wait a few days for that. Meh.


Oh, and apparently my father has joined the 20th century himself. He got a cell phone. Although he warns me, "I probably won't remember to turn it on much." *snort*


And I had another great day at work. The fates conspire against me or something, in ironic fashion. Since I mentioned yesterday that the Boss's Daughter doesn't need her period to be able to moan about how miserable she is (since she's sick), I got mine. And someone already went home sick today (one of our kitchen staff has a digestive disorder, it seems), so I couldn't go home. Not that it would have mattered - B.D. would likely have left before I got there today if he hadn't. Holy crap, I was in so much pain tonight. Two more days of work, and then I'm sleeping, like, 16 hours straight or something.

(Apologies for all these "and I had Wheaties for breakfast" entries lately, but I don't have much to do at the moment but sit here and type.)


Mmmm....20%. *sighs* This wouldn't be necessary if the CBC was just going to air these episodes a few weeks behind, but no. The CBC most definitely has NOT joined the 21st century.

Die, CBC, die.


Edit: Oh my god, fucking awesome episode. Notes to follow tomorrow. But now, BED.

Do not complain. At least you're getting the episodes at all! They canceled Who here after three episodes, and even if they'd continued showing it, all we would have gotten was the horrifying dub.

Why yes, I do know my way around a torrent program, considering I've been using torrent to get my TV fixes for four years now... ;).

What? For some reason my new icon isn't showing up in the drop down menu. Wtf?

Maybe you need to refresh? That's usually the problem when I can't find an icon in the box. If I JUST uploaded it, I sometimes need to refresh the page.

And we're not getting the episodes! That we've heard yet. I mean, if the CBC had said, "Yup, we'll air them in May," I'd be all, "ARGH!" but I'd wait. But...nothing.

My mom has a friend whose brother works for the CBC, and even HE has no idea what's going on. Apparently there's been no internal mention of it at all. But he says if they DO air it, it probably won't be until like...July. Hell no.

Hah, no, I just messed up on the labeling. (As in, I mixed up comment and keyword *facepalm*.)

Not at all? Hmm, okay. But at least you got the other seasons! And you're getting the original. I don't get why they can't show the original over here, as well. They don't have to show it during prime time, only for the rerun!

I get the feeling I have ranted about this to you before. Will shut up now ;).
