BTVS Series Finale

2003-05-22 - 7:57 a.m.

Well, Buffy ended Tuesday night after 7 seasons. RATS! I loved,loved, LOVED that show. Is depressed now. I've watched that show since the first first ep. There are very, very few eps I've missed. Maybe 2 or 3 over the years that I've not seen. One of which is an ep I missed this season due to it being pre-empted by a basketball game! Grrrrrrrr! Really wasn't happy that night. The station still hasn't played that ep. *is pissed off about this still*

Anyway, I'm not sure I liked the ending. I could swear my oh-so-reliable station was advertising a 2 hr series finale and it was only one hour. Disappointed about that.

I wish Buffy had had more of a fight with Caleb. I loved Caleb's character. I thought that Caleb would be leading the charge of the uber vamps. That actor was so excellent in the part it took to forever to realize he'd played the captain on Firefly. Why people didn't like that show I'll never know. I fell for it instantly.

I also wish that Angel had played a bigger part. I kinda thought he would given their past, but oh well. I guess it provided a kind of closure. Cookies, heh. *snicker*

I always thought Anya would be the one that was killed off. She was after all a human who became a demon willingly who became a human again. I liked her character, but also didn't. She was kinda irritating.

Why, oh why, did they kill Spike? *sniffles* I adored Spike, all the Spikes from the Big Bad to the one that sacrificed himself for Buffy. I feel like they'll bring him back to be on Angel. I hope so anyway.

I can't believe that Giles would ever betray Buffy the way he did this season, but he did. Ripper comin' out in him. Or any of Buffy's other friends. I'm not sure I'd ever trust them again totally if I was her.

I liked that part about all those with Slayer potential becoming Slayers thanks to Willow's spell. Does anyone else think she has actually become a goddess? No longer human? That was certainly very strongly implied, was it not?

Kennedy, eh. I really liked her at first, and wanted a spin-off with her character but as the season progressed I found myself disliking her more and more. No, it's not because she's involved with Willow. It's her obnoxious, know-it-all attitude. The way she kept challenging Buffy as though she, Kennedy, knew all the answers. Yeah, right, like she's been doing this for 7 years. Bitch.

Faith. *very excited to see Faith again on Angel and Buffy* I still the actress is making a mistake in not doing a Faith spin off. It's not like she's got much of a movie career. I know she's in another upcoming tv show right now. I'll probably watch it to see how it is. I've always loved the Faith character on Buffy. *wishes she had the actress's nice, long, hair* She was such an interesting contrast to the Buffy character.

Over all, the finale left me feelin' kinda disappointed. A "That's it?!" kinda feeling.

Mom watched the ep with me, she said she liked it. I kinda like it, but not. I thought it would be something else--what I'm not sure, but not that.

Well, one of my coworkers is quitting. Today is her last day. I'm kinda sorry she's leaving, but.........*does a dance of joy* mainly because now I don't have to listen to all my other coworkers complain about her anymore. Whee. I liked her, but she's too fundamentalist Christian for my tastes. I'm personally very liberal in my beliefs and attitudes. She was well, not nice, to our boss, who is a Muslim and a very, very nice man, just because he is a Muslim. I've a problem with religions that teach others that if that person is not of your religion then they are going to hell and not worth anything. Or that if you kill that religion's enemies then you'll go their heaven.

Went to class on algae for my company week before last. That was a 5 hour trip to the city. Went down Sunday, attended class Monday, drove back after the class on Monday, went to work on Tuesday as usual. The class on Monday went until 5:00 pm. Eyes glaze. Kinda interesting but I was just so tired due to insomnia and stress that it was hard for me to stay awake during the class.

Went to Galvez Saturday and came back on Sunday. It's a 6 hour road trip one way. So that's 12 hours in the car in 2 days. I went with Mom to her hair show convention on Sunday. I bought some hair stuff for my self. And some nail polish. Gotta love those conventions--the OPI Nicole nail polish is $5.00 wholesale to the manicurist, $10.00 retail, and I got 3 bottles for $10.00 plus tax. Whee. So far it's lasting on my nails a lot better than most polishes which start chipping almost as soon as I put it on. It's been almost 3 days now, and no chipping.

Have to work this weekend to cover quitting coworkers weekend. Sigh. I'm not feeling so good right now. Stomach upset. At least, I actually get Monday off since it's a holiday. Then, I get to do coworkers job again on Tuesday and mine. Oh, what fun. Not.

My kitty, Mervis is sick from me doing all this traveling. She stayed home, but her stomach is messed up bad. She ate Lil Sissy's food, not hers even though she had her food, and it upset her tummy BAD. She's feeling better though.

Phone rings.

"Water Lab. How may I help you?"

"I need to see if I've paid my electric bill," he says.

"Just a moment." Transfers him to correct department.

Couple of minutes later.........

"Water Lab. How may I help you?"

"I need to see if I've paid my electric bill," he says.

Same guy, hmmmm. Oooookay. Transfers him again.

He calls back a third time. Okay, moron, what do you not understand?! This is the water lab, we analyze water that's it! We are not the eletric dept, or the customer service or whatever. I have my own job to do and this isn't it, you moron! Quite calling me! Wish I could actually say all this. Transfers him a third time and does not answer phone when it rings for the next few minutes. If a voice mail is left, I'll return the call.

Sigh. This happens a lot, especially during summer. For some reason I cannot fathom, the damn telephone operators give out my number as the main utility number. It's not. It's correct in the phone book, so why is it not correct their computers or whateverz?! I get upwards of 50+ calls in a day thanks to them and it interferes with my ability to do my job--both the testing and helping my customers. Argh! Tears hair out in frustration.

Take the Dante's Inferno Hell Test

You are the Marquis Da Sade. Even stripped of
exaggerations, Your real life was as dramatic
and as tragic as a cautionary tale. Born to an
ancient and noble house, you were married
(against your wishes) to a middle-class heiress
for money, caused scandals with prostitutes and
with your sister-in-law, thus enraging your
mother-in-law, who had you imprisoned under a
lettre de cachet for 14 years until the
Revolution freed you. Amphibian, protean,
charming, you became a Revolutionary,
miraculously escaping the guillotine during the
Terror, only to be arrested later for
publishing your erotic novels. You spent your
final 12 years in the insane asylum at
Charenton, where you caused another scandal by
directing plays using inmates and professional
actors. You died there in 1814, virtually in
the arms of your teenage mistress.

You are a revolutionary deviant. I applaud you.

Which Imfamous criminal are you?
