Angel season 4 thoughts

Last night we watched several episodes of Angel: "Slouching Toward Bethlehem" up to "Apocalypse, Nowish". I'm glad Cordy has her memory back, although of course she can't remember why or how she left HigherBeingLand, and of course that stuff happened with Connor and Angel totally saw it. I'm actually becoming desensitized to the angst. It's just ongoing. It never stops. If Joss would actually let his characters get a teensy bit of happiness, then the angst would have more impact. Like when Tara died, for example. We felt that pain. But this season of Angel is just all angst without letting up. Oh, and the memory thing in "Spin the Bottle" felt done to me. I mean, pretty much the same thing happened in "Tabula Rasa" in Buffy season 6, except that in "Spin the Bottle" they all thought they were sixteen--like the writers thought, "We can't make them all lose their memories completely because we just did that last season on Buffy, so we'll... make them think they're teenagers! That'll be fun!" Meh. Don't get me wrong, though, I'm definitely enjoying watching it. (And for any who don't know, this is my first time watching this season, so don't spoil me for upcoming events.)

I'm sneezing like crazy and my nose is running a marathon. I hope this goes away soon. I'm such a grumpy sick person, and if I don't get better, I'll soon become a grumpy, sick, and menstruating person, and I really don't want to do that to my roommates.
