I don't have to close tonight! Means I can eat at home tonight! Also means I can talk to people on Skype tonight!

So Heroes last night . . . I've already seen one diehard Heroes fan already turning away from where the show's gone this past while, so they're definitely at a kind of make-or-break period of time. There's a lot of idiot balls being carried on all teams across all fields, so it's very frustrating at times and I respect that. Nevertheless, I very much want to know what's going to happen next. That's gotta be worth somethin', I guess. On the plus side, at least Maya's not there anymore? Not that she sucked, she was just not as interesting as the others - kinda like Matt in season one before he took a level in badass.

Also . . . I'm about halfway through The Watchmen, and it's extremely well done. I'm loving it so far as something both new and retro to me all at once. It's nifty like that. Naturally, Rorschach steals the show; I'm not surprised.

EDIT: I spent an extra few hours last night reading Watchmen instead of going to bed - with a work shift starting this morning, this is gonna cost me.

On the plus side, though, Watchmen was crap-your-pants awesome, so there's consolation in that. It's really hard to see a lot of things coming in the book because it subverts pretty much every superhero trope and expectation into a rather interesting moral situation.

Heh . . . this movie's gonna piss off a lot of people next month. And I don't even mean the poor people who won't be able to handle the adaptation, either. The final message of the story's gonna mess with people . . . aaaaaaand . . . that should be fun to watch . . .
