apocalypsos | I need a nap to catch up on the sleep I missed when I was sleeping for ten straight hours.

So Kristen Bell's going to be on Heroes this season. Uh, thank you, but NO. I don't have a virulent hatred for her but I really just do not want to see her on Heroes. We're talking about someone who's had fans and critics falling all over her for three straight years telling her she's the be-all and end-all of hot young actresses and now she's going to be part of an ensemble show? Yeah, this'll work out.

And maybe it's just me, but I don't like the whole description of her character -- how she's connected to Peter's explosion and Mr. Bennet's past and Claire's future and also she's first seen committing a crime ... oh, but that might not be a bad thing! One sentence's worth of description down and it already smacks vaguely of Mary-Sueism to me. And also, don't we already have enough little blond girls who commit crimes on this show? Not that I don't like Claire and Niki (well, NOW I like Niki), but COME ON. How much you want to bet she dyes her hair?

Now, Nichelle Nichols? THAT'S Heroes casting I like. God knows George Takei's already awesomecakes.

In other news, the family friend who fixes computers is going to hook up my laptop for me tonight, since I tried for ten minutes before I was like, "You know what? I don't want to break this anymore than Compaq already has." And I still haven't written the bitchy letter to Compaq yet. I'll have to do that today.

I also have to go apply for a new job today. And considering the location is a place I used to work at, I might actually get it. Which sucks, because it's the same place I told my mother I'd rather sell a kidney than work at again. The difference is that rather than working in the factory itself I'm going to try to get an office job there. At least that should be good enough not to make me sick like working in the factory used to.
