Honey & Turmeric

Hey, writing from a brand-new laptop here. My old one decided to call it quits on Wednesday -- it was pretty old, time to die, whatevs. So I ordered a new one yesterday from the campus computer store and it came in today, tg, I never would have survived the weekend without internet. I'm sticking with Windows, can't afford a Mac. Besides, this thing's got all these features -- I mean, really, fingerprint recognition? We live in the future, guys!

I took that Political Spectrum quiz that was posted on ontd_p. Apparently I'm a center-left moderate social libertarian. Who knew? Judging by the comparison of my results to everyone's results, my general leanings are pretty average. As compared to the rest of the quiz-taking internet, I guess.

My Political Views

I also subscribed to Zip.ca (that's like Netflix for Canadians) this past week. I'm just using it for TV on DVD, I'm not really a movie person. Movies either don't demand enough investment or not enough from me. I joined it initially to get my hands on The Fall, having been beaten over the head with the adorability of Lee Pace by Pushing Daisies. I got discs from "Studio 60" and "Dexter" season 2 this week. Well, actually I just got "Studio 60" so far, but "Dexter" should be here soon. Matthew Perry looks really tired.

... But, incidentally, I don't have friends about to discourage from blogging lazy, so here I go.
Firstly, I would like to update on my various recent health problems. I was out of school for almost two weeks with something the doctors haven't been able to identify, even after a hospital visit and a long line of embarrassing tests, but which I suspect was a mild case of infectious mononucleosis (mono/glandular fever/"the kissing disease", and no I haven't been making out with any sick people), and, interestingly, with a side of panic attacks which my doctor is convinced is chemically-induced because I really do have a frikkin' easy life *yes, says "frikkin'", thnxverymuch*. 
My doctor prescribed me either Paxil (me: wtf, this is an anti-depressant) or  Xanax, which I am strangely excited about. Xanax is a brand name alprazolam, a benzodiazepene, and just because I have a one-track mind, it occurs to me that my favourite ex-FBI agent is/was addicted to midazolam, a benzodiazepene derivative. I am so pathetic and sad, but I cannot help it. I love that fictional man.

FOX owns my soul. I mean, 'Friends' is based in NBC and 'Dexter' originated of Showtime, but FOX airs 'House', 'Bones', 'Prison Break', and two of my new favourite shows, 'Canterbury's Law' and 'New Amsterdam'. Some thoughts on my three most recent television acquisition-type-thingies:

( Three new shows... )

And just because I'm REALLY lazy, I've been going through S2 of Prison Break in a fit of MIP (mono-induced procrastination), and so I present to you my top ten favourite S2 Mahone lines:

( Laziness to the nth degree... )
Hey, I did warn you. I am srsly lazy today.
