geebsWent to Cafe Alscae with the roomie, ND, and ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
psyched_out and his wife and kid for a belated b-day dinner. It was pretty good. The appetizers we got (a cheese selection, a meat selection, and some sort of onion pie-ish sort of thing) were pretty good, my entree (some sort of french thing I can't pronounce) was very filling, and dessert was great (chocolate mousse and vanilla ice cream puffs). Afterwards, phatjoe came over to watch Lost. So it was a good night- good food, and gotta hang out with some good friends.
So the race issues they hinted at way back at the beginning of the show have finally come up, ending with a walkout by Smash and the other black players. Its been so long since they brought up that Riggins and Smash really hate each other. I'm wondering how this will turn out, as this town is all about football, and its the championships coming up, things will get even crazier.
So Julie and Tyra are like best friends now? And Julie's turning all bad girl? Weird. And Matt is an idiot! He didn't realize he had to pick Julie first, given how he's been in the doghouse with her as of late?! But that was sweet, when he made her quarterback, particularly once the coach found out and he was so egg-cited to teach her all these things. So given their closeness when they won the powder-puff game, are things good between Matt and Julie again?
Tyra has even more of a reason to hate Lyla now, as Buddy is putting the moves on Tyra's mom. That's messed up in and of itself, but seriously, last weeks reveal that he's Tyra's stripper sister's favorite customer, somehow makes it even more messed up. I'm wondering when he's going to make his way to Tyra. The greasy perv!
So Jack finishes the surgery on Ben, and Kate and Sawyer make it to the main island using Alex's boat, with "Chachi" (why the hell did Sawyer call him Cheech? He's neither hispanic nor a pot head) in tow. They almost didn't make it, as Pickett had caught up to them, but Juliet blew him away. Since Jack is a sucky anesthesiologist, Ben was acutally concious for part of the fall finale cliffhanger, and authorizes their release if Jack does the op as planned. Pickett's still pissed over the whole Sun killing Colleen thing, so he's skeptical when Juliet tells him so, hence her putting him down permanently.
This ep was a Juliet flashback. Apparently, she's some genius medical researcher from Miami who was recruited by Ethan and some mysterious company. She manages to get her cancer-sick sister preggers and apparently also got a male mouse preggers, so they want her for their research site in "Portland". When they go to finalize their deal, they tell her its not really in Portland. Hence her reason to drop her assassination plot against Ben (which Jack revealed to everyone). She drops her vendetta, she can leave the island. She was only supposed to be there for six months, then she could go see her preggers sick sister, but she ended up being there for 3+ years!
Oh, and she was initially reluctant, saying couldn't go because of her ex-husband. She foolishly jokes, that she could only go if he got hit by a bus. The guys and I joked, "Oh man, the mysterious company is going to hit him with a bus!" Then when she confronted him in that street scene, and you see that bus down the street we were all, "Oh, they ARE going to hit him with a bus!" And sure enough, they did!
So on OTH, the Tree Hill kids pair off for some weird class project where they ask too many personal questions (like what teacher would really give an assignment like that, and like the majority of them would take it that seriously!) but of course, everyone learns a little about each other and makes new friends and relationships. How cliche.
Heh, and now for the serious stuff that no one will ever see as this is under the "One Tree Hill" cut. (Who says you need to lock entries?) As I've said before, I think one of my problems is I just don't know what to do with myself. Like one of the questions in the aforementioned OTH ep was "Where do you see yourself 10 years from now?" I think we had the question posed in HS, and I gave the stock, BS answer of working in some company. I thought, realistically, that's where I'd prolly be. I mean, there was no "dream job" I felt like pursuing. (I mean, government assassin wasn't a real job!) But even now, I don't know where I'll be in 10 years. Working the same job? All I really care about career wise is that its good pay and its steady. And I of course hope I meet someone, maybe start a family before I get too old. But in terms of specifics, I just don't have any.
Everyone's prolly like this at some point in their life, but they figure it out eventually. When do I figure out what I want out of life? I think that's part of the reason I watch TV so much, its easier to get into other people's lives, rather than my own. And even if I didn't watch so much TV, I find myself still doing it- I tell people stories from their own HS, college, or life experience, stuff I'd heard once and they'd long forgotten all the time. Isn't it weird I remember other people's lives better than my own? Like in HS, nothing really happenned to me. I wasn't super-popular, but it wasn't so bad that I loathed it either. With my super hearing, ability to go unnoticed, and the strange ability to get people to be frank and open with me, I was a pretty good gossip. I think hearing and telling all these stories about other people's lives made my life seem less boring. I didn't have anything interesting to say about myself, but I sure had a lot of things to say about everyone else.
I guess I'm just babbling now. I dunno, I guess it just boils down to me wishing I knew what I wanted out of life.
