Woo-hoo!!!! Finals are over... which means, I'm home for the summer!!

Well, the total weight loss count from being on the I Went Away to College plan is in: I've lost over 20 pounds in two semesters... completely not on purpose. ::chagrined:: And officially, none of my freakin' pants fit!! >:(

Andromeda -- Woo-hoo! I finally got home to all my recordings, and I had a Harper marathon!! Man, I forgot how good "Ouroborous" is. I forgot about half the tings that happened in that ep, but boy was it fun to see it again! And I just love Harper's impression of abstract art. ::squee!!!:: It was SO funny. Okay, it might have been because I watched it at 2:30 in the moring, but I still love it. :D

Title: Appreciation
Prompt: "headache"

Gateroom.

It's late.

I'm standing on the ramp, gazing.

Amazing technology, the Stargate.

Thinking about how it works gives me a headache, but it's still intriguing.

Off-world with Jaffa on our tails, it's always our ticket home.

It came through again, got us out of yet another bad situation. Everyone -- even me, for a change -- came back without a scratch.

It's taken for granted, never once thanked for the job it does.

I gently place my hand on the piece of alien engineering, willing my appreciation to it.

I hope it knows how much it really means.

It's earth's hope.
