I almost forgot- tonight is the Utica episode of The Office!  Don’t miss it!

Memo: ‘Office’ parties tonight – Utica, NY – The Observer-Dispatch

Early this summer, Calin and I started watching Doctor Who (the new series)- she watched a couple episodes on BBC America, then we rented the rest of it, so now we’re caught up. (Of course, here in the colonies we don’t get to see the episodes until a couple months after the UK)

Anyway- tonight we saw an awesome episode called Blink- I can’t explain too much about it without giving it away, but it was well written, well directed, and very creepy. If you haven’t checked out the new Doctor Who series, check it out- it’s a lot better than I thought it would be.

Update: Here’s a link to a trailer for that episode I mentioned.

Most awesomest thing ever:

This was shown at CES this year; it’s pretty funny:

O.J. Simpson book, TV show canceled – CNN.com

Fox being decent and responsible? Wow.

Update: Newscorp pulled it, not fox. If fox had its way, it would probably still be on.

Saranac Octoberfest has to be my favorite beer in the world; I saw that it was out so I picked some up for the season. Calin and I are also looking forwad to mulled apple cider, Pumpkin Spice Lattes and Cinnamon Sugar donuts… I love the Fall.

In other news, I had to go to the dentist today for my first ever filling- people at work had trouble believing that I had never had a cavity. Next I need to have my wisdom teeth removed; that’s gonna be rough.

Not much else here; we’re going across the state this weekend to visit family and to see Tony Campolo speak in Utica. I also need to let my parents and brother borrow LOST Season 2 so they can catch up in time for season 3; everyone is starting to get all hyped up about the upcoming season at work- a few of us are going to try to get some LOST parties together for the new episodes, let me know if you’re interested!

This is cool- they did a live action version of The Simpsons’ openning sequence; you can view it here.
