Last night, being thoroughly bored and having one of those moments where I am at a complete loss what to do with myself, I decided to watch Season 1 of Stargate: SG1. You know that feeling when you sit in a room in front of your PC, an open text editor on the monitor, and realise there’s absolutely nothing you can think of that’s worth writing? Yep, horrible.

Indicative of this depressing trend – maybe it’s the weather over here which veers from a warm spring day to an ugly grey clouded afternoon like God is flicking a switch and cackling insanely at the Irish people – I have sought to escape this dreary existence in SG episodes. I have most of them on DVD since the TV DVD market crashed into a low price frenzy and I could pick them up cheap.

There’s something really cool about the Stargate series. You can watch them – repetitively – and they never seem to get boring. I’m not certain whether its a personal brain disorder, or simple quality Sci-Fi goodness, but they just stay interesting. Maybe its MacGyver’s (sry, R.D. Anderson’s sarcastic sense of humour, or the comedy of watching a race of parasitic aliens too stupid to realise all those pillars in their facilities make excellent hiding places for hordes of humans with P90′s.

I think I’ll go now actually and stare glassy-eyed at a few more episodes before sleepwalking into work tomorrow…

I’ll find something more interesting to blog about tomorrow. Probably a juicy PHP tidbit I can regurgitate or something…;-)

Yep, thoroughly bored.
