I ended up sleeping in until close to eleven o'clock today. I woke up numerous times before than but I had absolutely no desire to get out of bed. And it was nice that I didn't have to. It took me awhile but I did eventually manage to go to Hobby Lobby and I bought a whole bunch of string and a bigger piece of cloth. Hopefully I got all the colors of string I need but I won't know for sure until I get around to making the pixel people.

This afternoon I tweaked the bottom half of the Dalek pattern I found and tonight at work I started stitching it. I nearly finished it and I think it looks pretty good but I'll reserve judgment until I get the last row of dots finished. While working on that I continued watching the third season of Doctor Who. Unlike when I gained an appreciation for Rose by re-watching the first two seasons, I still do not like Martha. Or her mother. I don't have a problem with Martha when she isn't pining over the Doctor but that is rare. I can't wait to get to Donna. The last episode I watched tonight was the first appearance of the Weeping Angels. I now want to see if I can cross stitch a Weeping Angel with the words “Don't Blink” under it. It would be cool if I could make a detailed angel but I can see myself just coming up with a plain black one. We'll see. I still need to get a start on my sister's name.

Now I am home and I just finished the season one finale of Battlestar Galactica. Talk about a cliffhanger. I'm just glad I'm not watching it on a week-to-week basis so I don't have to wait to see what happens. The annoying thing about this show is that they do a recap at the beginning of each episode, which gets old pretty quick when I have just watched all the previous things. Also, I'm not a fan of their tank tops on the show. They look like backward girl tank tops. I don't get it.

Anyway, I think I'm going to finish the first episode of the second season and then go to bed. It is really late already but I'm invested. I would like to wake up at a decent time tomorrow so I don't miss out on the majority of one of my days off. We'll see how that goes. My bed seems so inviting in the mornings.
