Well I got pain meds from my dentist last night.  Pretty much a combination of Tylenol and Vicodin.  It's helping to take the edge off, although it makes me pretty drowsy and a bit loopy.

Found a couple of things related to SG-1 ending.  First from Sci-Fi Wire: SG-1's Shanks Retraces Steps

MS talks about when he, AT and CJ first saw the Stargate on the set back in S1 and how they pretty much came full circle gazing out at it after filming the final ep.   Nice to see him mention AT and CJ - especially AT - since it seemed he was only talking about CB in his recent interviews and whatnot (no offense intended toward him of course).

Second, Gateworld has a huge photo gallery for Unending up: http://www.gateworld.net/news/2007/06/photos_unending.shtml

Some nice ones, although I am depressed that there are none of Daniel with Teal'c or with Sam, or the three of them.  He's not even near them in any of the group shots. :(  I guess it shows how distanced he's become toward them... *sigh*  I so hope they repair the friendships in the movies, at least the second one. 

Is there something wrong with me for not loving these photos? The only ones that I sorta like are the ones with BB and CB together.  I'm sorry but I can't make myself like D/V or any "shippy" photos of D/V.  Stone me for it if you want, but I can't help it.

And I realize I sound crazy - it's the pain meds talking... :P  I'd better shut up before it gets worse...

Yay, I may be a victim of identity theft.  I just got a letter in the mail from my old university's health science center that, somehow, files including my personal information (which I'm assuming was in their archives) including name, social security # and university ID #, was made visible on the health science center's website.  They said there hasn't been any evidence of misuse yet, but recommended that I call a credit reporting agency to put a fraud alert on my credit report.  Just more BS for me to go through.

Oh, and I got a jury duty questionnaire in the mail the other day, too.  Aren't I lucky.  Because I haven't been called in quite a few years, I suspect they'll get me again and in time for my vacation in August as well. 

Well, enough personal garbage.  On to my musings...

Yesterday my mom called from work, asking if we could go to dinner last night (dad was out at a meeting) because she was depressed.  Naturally after I got home I had to ask why.  She is depressed because my dad is depressed, because some clients have owed him money for ages and still have yet to pay him.  So now she's got me depressed and I feel bad enough as it is because I haven't gotten a paycheck myself in two months.

Besides that...


Well I guess I'll try thinking of something to get my mind off all this.  I hate being depressed. :p  Congrats if you managed to read my rant and not come away thinking I'm insane.  It's just one of those days where everything seems really bleak and there's hardly anything to look forward to.

So I had a few people at Gateworld telling me the other day that I should go to this year's DragonCon in Atlanta. I think it takes place during the last weekend in August. Michael and Lexa are supposed to be there, as well as Chris Judge. Someone told me that Dragon Con is not like Creation and I'd have better chance of getting closer to Michael...

*sigh* What I would give to attend this con. I was so disappointed that he cancelled out on the NJ con and I honestly have no idea if he'll be attending it this year too. Also supposed to appear at DragonCon are the TAPS guys (from Ghost Hunters). I've always wanted to meet them too so it'd be really cool. I'd probably be able to swing it monetarily (is that a word? lol), but the problem is that I hate traveling alone, especially over such far distances - let alone going to a con by myself. My friend Lori who I went with to the NJ con wants to go back there this year, but again I don't know for sure if MS will even be attending.

The only thing I MAY be able to do.... I found one of my old junior high school friends on myspace last year. She'd mentioned back then that she usually goes to DragonCon and if I went I'd "be in Stargate heaven." I COULD try emailing her and seeing if she's going, but if I remember she said she was getting married this summer, so it's a longshot.

*sigh* How I wish I could do this. I really don't like the way Creation does things and I'm betting DragonCon would be a lot better! Plus there are so many guests I'd like to meet there... so close and yet so far. If only this thing took place in NY!!

I read this out of morbid curiosity on Gateworld, and now I'm sorry that I did.  Follow the cut for details ... no spoilers...
