So, I call Number Six from Battlestar Galactica "Red." I've called her that since the miniseries, because a good percentage of her outfits are red in hue. Also I find it a snappy name and I like to give people nicknames (example: almost every single person in BSG.) Anyway, they're all Red, for the most part. I know there's Caprica and Natalie and Gina and Unusually Pretty Red from season 4.5 with Brown hair.


Hello, beautiful Red!

Anyway, in about hour 90 thousand of our drive home, Mel and I were playing with her new deck of cards. She got it from some art museum in DC and so the cards all have different images of Andy Warhol artworks and so none of the suits have colors. Since I am incredibly rusty when it comes to playing any games with cards, (up to including the game 'Go Fish,') I was asking Mel the rules of some game that was very complicated but involved requesting things. So, because I'm dense, I ask as an example, "Can I ask for red?" meaning hearts or diamonds.

Melanie gave me this look that is at once horrifying and withering. "Do you mean a six? Because that is just pathetic, Madi."

Oh BSG. You take my life and make it better

I hope we get to see each other soon, because my obsession with bsg has definitely dwindled since I've been home and that makes me so sad!

I now own all the seasons, Ollie! WE CAN MARATHON.

I'll be up there around the week before school starts, I think. Where are you, ma'am?

(My cousin has a cat named Ollie, only she pronounces it Oh-lee. It's painful.)

Ye gods, that is beautiful. I keep making cylon references at all the get-togethers I have with my friends; I think it is making them hate me. CYLONS!!!!

I even somehow specifically made a Six one last night. And no one knows what I'm talking about! No one! And yet I can't stop! Everyone should be In The Know about the Bstar! Sigh.

There was an episode of Gilmore Girls where Rory referenced Cylons and it pretty much made my afternoon! And my mom and sister reference it when we talk about technology and machines, even though neither of them will watch the show with because they're losers.

EVERYONE SHOULD WATCH THIS SHOW IT SHOULD BE MANDATORY. MY GOD.

ETA: I just realized I am sorely lacking in icons of this resplendent being. PLEASE TO BE MAKING ICONS.

My sister is so disgusted by my love for BSG. She totally doesn't understand.
