Happy New Years

[ellenmillion]

I have sent the daughter and husband to watch fireworks at the university (socially distanced, outdoors) by themselves and am watching my very favorite SG-1 episode, eating popcorn, and drinking a rum and root beer. I have the fireworks streaming in a Facebook tab. I might work on the paperback files for Gryphon of Glass, because I love crossing things off my to-do list.

Happy New Year, everyone! I hope your 2021 is amazing in every way.

What's your favorite SG-1 episode? I tend to quote most often Tin Man, because after needing open heart surgery a few years ago, "I made you better!" sounds reassuring these days...

Window of Opportunity, from Season 4. :) There are arguably BETTER episodes, but I love that one for so many reasons. (Cause and Effect is my favorite Star Trek;NG episode, so I appear to have a thing for time loops.)

"In the middle of my swing!?!" And timing his resignation perfectly, for once...

Yeessssssss....

(I had to go dig into my old Livejournal account to find this apt icon!)

(Above icon sums up my opinion on 2020)

Yes, I like your icon. And Robin adored both the package and the dragon with dreidel note card, being a fan of the modern arguments of dragons and Rabbinic reasoning: Is it permissible to have a dragon light a fire on Shabbat? ✡️😂🧐

Yes! That's my favorite, too.

Happy New Year!! We decided to skip the fireworks and stay home, though we might set off some of our own at midnight if we feel like it. I hope you're having a lovely evening to close out the Worst Year Ever. <3

I don't particularly enjoy people or traffic or loud noises, and getting about 45 minutes OF MY OWN at home was the very best treat of all. :P Then I got daughter and husband to watch Agent Carter with me, which may be a new thing for all of us. It was VERY lovely, thank you.

Out of curiosity, what is your very favorite SG1 episode?

[ellenmillion]

Window of Opportunity, Season 4. I have a serious soft spot for time loop stories and this one just has a lot of little gems.

That’s one of my favorite SG1 episodes, and one of my favorite Groundhog’s Day riffs!

I have vague memories of the Xena Groundhog’s Day riff being good too.

Have you seen Happy Death Day and Happy Death Day 2U? They’re great time loop stories that you don’t expect would be great. I don’t remember if you like or dislike horror, though. But they’re amazing - and surprisingly hilarious. I hope they’re able to do a trilogy or a spinoff or even an extended universe and keep the quality up.

Happy New Year!
Now I have a hankering to re-watch some more SG-1. :-)
