Grab Your Gun And Bring In The Cat

So last night brought the end of what in the past year had become one of my favorite tv shows. I think I'll probably watch the whole run of Battlstar Galactica at least once more on DVD but the fact that I didn't follow this fantastic program from its beginning will always be something that disappoints me. It really was top notch. From Edward James Olmos as Admiral Adama to Michael Trucco as Sam Anders each and every actor played their part well. Each and every character had a great amount of depth and detail. I was even impressed by how well the finale ended up going. And I was pretty impressed too that I sort of guessed the ending. (We're all Cylons...get it?) I'll miss the show. Not gonna lie.

Today I went down to Bayonne to have lunch with my cousins. It was good seeing them. James headed back towards California today. It'll be a bit before he's back, but hopefully I'll see him when he's back over the summer. Bridget is just starting to get her admissions letters back and she's already racked up quite a few good schools. I'm real proud of those kids.

After that I met up with Collette to go over to the MET in NYC. We got a hold of Michelle at the last minute and the three of us headed in. I was just there back in November so it was kind of nice because I could just catch the stuff I missed last time. We wandered around there for a bit, caught a bite to eat, and then stopped for cupcakes (not muffins) at Magnolia Bakery. On the way back we were stopped at a light next to actress Marcia Gay Harden. It would have been cooler if I wasn't the only one who knew who she was.

We got back and stopped in at Wizards for a bit. Pretty much as soon as we walked into Wizards I got a message from an old friend. I'd sort of been surprised it had been a few weeks since we talked, and I almost expected to be in touch soon. But the fact that I got the message so late was odd. So either it was sent late or my phone just got it to me real late. So I didn't get to stop by tonight, but I sort of said I'd stopped by Monday. So we will see.

Tomorrow afternoon I'll be back in Bayonne to catch a bite to eat with the family after the St.Patty's Day parade. Then I'll hustle back up to catch a movie with the Team. And then I'll probably head back down here to the office to get some work done and try and clean off this computer.

All in all it will have been a good weekend. As long as nothing cataclysmic goes down tomorrow.

Wish me luck.
