So I’ve been thinking about a lot of things, but I’m not sure as I want to write about them.

Earlier tonight, though, I was watching the new Children of Dune miniseries, and several things occurred to me:

1. After the original miniseries was on, I resolved to read the books. It’s been 2 years and I still have not done this. Why?
Answer: I am a lazyass reader who would rather re-read books 5 or 6 times than risk starting a book that may bore me or make me start to like characters who later die or have otherwise unsatisfactory ends. Because once I start, I have a compulsion to finish.

2. As Jen noticed, the new Lady Jessica is the Borg Queen. This is not, however, why she looked so damn familiar to me when she appeared on screen. I realized only later that she and Lady Oscar are long lost twins.
