I Suck At Buffy The Vampire Slayer

on sunday, i finished demolishing our first floor bathroom. everything, including the electrical, in the bathroom has been torn down to the studs. so now the renovation can actually begin! (well... once plans are drawn up and all.)

following the demolition of the bathroom, karen and i hung out with my friends (marc and kelley). in an attempt to progress through the series, marc and kelley wanted to see if we were interested in watching more episodes of the greatest television show ever: buffy the vampire slayer. i suck at buffy the vampire slayer... so of course i was all in for watching more episodes.

after ordering takeout from the imperial terrace in quincy, the four of us watched the remaining episodes from season four of buffy the vampire slayer. the episodes included: "the yoko factor" about spike breaking up the group of friends a la yoko and the beatles; "primeval" about the conclusion and final battle with adam; and "restless" about the very first slayer and the groundwork for the arrival of buffy's sister, dawn.

one of the puzzling questions that came about in regards to buffy... is the cheese man who appears in the "restless" episode. for anyone curious, the cheese man has actually been a topic of debate in the buffy world.

according to joss whedon:

"The cheese man means nothing. He is the only thing in the show that means nothing. I needed something like that, something that couldn't be explained, because dreams always have that one element that is just RIDICULOUS. Thus, man of cheese. Plus funny. (to me)"

nevertheless, fans will be fans and they will be undeterred in finding a meaning for the cheese man.

anyway, as usual it was a great time hanging out with marc and kelley. up next: the season finale for angel!
