barely fatal

I just noticed that half the Battlestar cast has re-appeared recently on Dollhouse (Tigh, Adama, Helo) and V (Tori) along with the usual suspects from the Whedonverse (most notably Alan Tudyk, of course). Tahmoh Penikett really was type-cast on Dollhouse (not the worst idea, though). Well, it was cancelled anyway. They’re gonna air the last episodes of season 2 and Whedon promised a grand finale. No new Firefly, however. As for V, thanks to Anne for pointing out that Scott Wolf is not actually Jamie Bamber, although they kind of do look alike and act similarly, don’t they? Hm.

In other news I got mail from the public prosecutor’s office today. Not what you think – I always pay my speeding tickets. Or I would. If I drove a car. And too fast. I’m really trying, but so far I have never managed to get any of those photo boxes flash me on my bike. No, it was about the credit card fraud thing back in spring, where some money was stolen from my card through PayPal. Police actually managed to find somebody to indict (not that I heard about any prosecution going on, or I was asked any questions). But, there was a proceeding and it was dismissed now for lack of evidence. Can’t say I’m surprised. The money was covered by insurance, of course, like all credit card money with no signature.

After a looooong odyssey through many able and unable post worker’s hands, I finally got my yearly Christmas feel good package, complete with cake, cookies, and tons of chocolate. My “Oh just a little bit more” mom makes sure I won’t a) be w/o at least some Christmas spirit and b) ever reach my target weight. And I’m not too proud to say “Luv you, too, mom!”
