DVD evening

It started out innocently enough, watching a couple of movies while cooking up some penne with pesto for dinner. Had some light teen comedy on in the background while cooking, and then sat down to the serious business of watching "The Punisher", which I've been wanting to do ever since it first came out. It was suitably dark and very entertaining, and I enjoyed it a lot.

Then I did something really silly.

Noticing that the disc also had a few "Smallville" episodes on it from Season 4 of the show, I started one to see if I'd watched it before, and found that it was new (or at least, new to me). Then I started wondering which other episodes I had missed, and I thought, "Hey, why don't I just start with the pilot and work my way forward?"

Which was bad.

Because I was already very tired.

And I could happily watch Kristin Kruek until my eyes actually fall out of my skull.

Fortunately, after two episodes I let Bella out for a walk around the garden, and bumped into Rory L (who was just getting home). We ended up chatting for the next hour, and by the time I went back into the house I was sufficiently distracted that I was able to switch off the laptop and go to bed.

Without that interruption, I'd probably still be watching...
