It Wasn't My Fault!

Yes, only this morning I said I'd be at my IJ the next time LJ went down. But I didn't do it! [crosses fingers behind back]

In totally other news, I can't figure out why I'm watching Jericho. It's my big fear. since I was six, I've been certain that a post nuclear future was what awaited, and reading 'Alas, Babylon' in seventh grade just helped reinforce that. It was the reason I didn't watch it when it started in the Fall. But here I am, watching the repeats, freaking myself out [sigh] I'm nuts!

Yay! LJ is back!! But IJ was much fun while it was down :)

I can't watch Jericho for exactly that reason...sort of. The weird thing is that, for almost the entirety of the 80s, I lived in eastern Colorado, 30 miles from Denver and about 90 from Colorado Springs. In other words, I lived with the absolute certainty that if it happened, I'd probably never know.

But I couldn't make it through The Day After at the time, and have barely done so once in the late 90s. I watched the Jericho pilot when it aired, said "I cannot do this on a long-term basis," and never looked at it again. I don't care how good it is. I just can't. And I don't know why, since I certainly never had any fear of having to live through that myself.
