I had a minor surgery earlier this week to remove a cyst from my ovary. I expected to be up and about the following day but luckily those around me are much more realistic about such things. Kendra made preparations for a long week of recuperation. One such effort was returning the Netflix discs last week so we'd have some new films to watch in the down time. Usually, when I see the emails alerting me that we've (read: Kendra's) returned the last discs I go to our queue and shuffle things around to something that seems appropriate. Rough week: Comedy! Contemplative: Documentary! You get the idea.
Anyway, as I mentioned I've been laid up and therefore didn't check my mail and therefore didn't see the notices and therefore didn't edit the queue. And THEREFORE: Battlestar Gallactica. This is one of those things that I have in the queue because I want to see it but I know better than to even dream of actually having it sent to the house.
Initially Kendra's response was the expected but just after surgery when she was worn down from watching me struggle a little with the recovery she said she would watch it with me - "Just one."
Bless her heart. I held her to it and we watched the first disc which is the pilot/miniseries. When we'd been watching for quite some time we needed an intermission and she inquired to the length. I really had no idea. Seriously. Who would have thought that they'd have put the entire three hour miniseries in one segment? Not me. But I now know exactly how much she fraking loves me.
I *love* BSG. As a matter of fact, I sent my dad the 1st season for his holiday gift. I will be very surprised if my stepmom watches it with him.

It is a lot of fun. Don't tell her I told you, but we're half way through Season 1 and Kendra is hanging in there voluntarily.
