Firefly

I follow an amazing Tumblr by Jesse Lonergan called Dancer a Day.  Monday through Friday he posts a drawing of a character dancing.  It's silly, it almost always nerdy, and it's completely awesome.  It gives me a smile and it makes me question my geek-cred when I don't recognize the character.

Dude.  If this doesn't make you smile, somebody must have peed on your rug.



Or this?  I mean....come on!



Its fantastic and I highly recommend checking it out.

A couple months ago Josh and I gave up on watching the newest version of Battlestar Gallactica.  A very generous friend from book club loaned me her blu-ray discs of the entire show (for longer than I want to admit), and Josh and I tried but just couldn't finish it.  Every time we started to like a character something terrible happened to them, and not in the Game of Thrones way, more like in the way of the show Lost, where it just opens up 8 more story lines none of which I have the energy to follow because I want to know WHERE THE POLAR BEAR CAME FROM???

Sorry...  Anyway, we gave up and I felt the need to redeem the sci-fi genre to Josh.

I turned to Firefly.  A coworker of mine told me about this show several years ago and I've loved it ever since.  Josh was fully on board and he enjoyed it just as much as I did.  I picked up the TV series from the library on a Friday, we watched the entire thing by the next Thursday, and I bought Serenity the following Friday.  We both love the show, and I think we will be purchasing the DVD set soon :)

The timing just happened to coincide with Jesse Lonergan asking for requests on his Dancer A Day tumblr.  Being in a Firefly state of mind, I requested:  The Crew of Firefly.

Today this was the post:

The crew of Firefly for Kristina!
