Kyle XY

I just watched season one (only 10 episodes) of Kyle XY. It's a weird show, kind of a mix between The OC and..something else. The premise is you have a teenage boy (Kyle) turn up with no memory (as in none, he doesn't know how to talk or even eat) in a forest near Seattle, where he is taken in by a child psychologist and her family. As the show progresses it becomes clear that he has an amazing mind (he's pretty much fluent in english by the end of episode 2) and we learn more about his past and the Mysterious Forces tracking him. At the same time there's lots of typical teen shenanigans with his foster siblings and their friends and schoolmates etc, to the extent that it's often more teen soap opera than scifi. I have mixed feelings about the show, but overall enjoyed it.

The awesomeness of the outside world

So today, for the first time in a month or so, I went out beyond the area around my house all by myself. I'm currently too buggered to get up for a while from this chair (which is annoying, since I wouldn't mind getting a blanket to sit back in a comfy chair and watch some more Kyle XY(*). And my arms are a bit wobbly for typing, which is just surreal) but it was totally worth it.
( Just stuff about my day. It was exciting for me, ok? )
