SANE ADDICTION

Its official, I have fully become a complete and utter Firefly addict! It hit me so hard. I spent so much time refusing to watch it in my own silent boycott (I'm still not quite over the whole Dark Angel cancellation though), and yet only two episodes later and here I am perusing nothing but browncoat sites on the web.

I'm not quite sure how it got to this point. I guess it was after I relented and allowed myself to watch the BDM last month. I mean, nothing special about it though, right? Though I admit Kaylees line about "batteries", left me snickering to myself for days. Plus I've been a Jewel Staite fan for years, especially after I saw her those times at Dragon*con. That must have been why I asked my friend to purchase the DVD set for me for my birthday. Now, one week and a few episodes later, the show has my mind fully entrenched and thinking "there's no place I'd rather be, since I found Serenity".

Maybe it was the fact that they speak Chinese. After I spending so much time these last few years learning some of the language and only watching Asian programming, it was interesting to see an American show that shared my love of it. Or it could just be Jayne's line about the "chain of command" that pulled me in. Either way, I'm now firmly "out to the black", and I doubt if I'll ever come back.
