Time to spang my gales<\/a> and write a quick recap of what did today on my day off. Except I spent the day doing mostly the same sort of thing I did all weekend, which is really nothing much. I watched last night’s Lost<\/i> series finale first thing on my iPad. (I tried watching it on my laptop, but I wound up with a virus I had to clean up, and ABC’s player app is actually really good.) I don’t really have a lot more to say about it than the very little I said about it here<\/a>. Except for the AV Club’s write-up, I’ve been pretty much avoiding reviews of the episode, preferring instead just to have enjoyed it. At some point, I think I’ll revisit the commentary, just as I plan at some point to revisit the series in its entirety, but for now, I’m just amazed the show is actually over. I don’t think I’m going to go into crazy withdrawal<\/a> (thanks Betty<\/a>), but I will miss the show. It really was like nothing else on television. (And the few shows, like FlashForward<\/i>, that have tried to be like it have mostly only adopted the superficial elements. It was never about the mystery, but about the characters those mysteries happened to.)<\/p>\n

Okay, maybe I had a little more to say about it. But, for now anyway, that’s it.<\/p>\n

Other than that, I spent the day mostly just lounging about, reading some, trying to get caught up on Kaleidotrope<\/i> slush submissions. I think I only have a couple of stories still hanging around since February, but those couple really do need to get read right away. I try to keep my response time down to a month or two if at all possible.<\/p>\n

It’s back to work tomorrow, for a grueling four-day week.<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
