I had another lovely day on the treadmill today. I got to sleep in a bit, which is always nice, then knocked out a bunch of sit ups, and then watched a fairly middle-of-the-road SJA episode on the treadmill.
Warriors of Kudlak - Parts 1 & 2
(TARDIS Data Core recap)
After yesterday's excellent story, I have to say this one was a bit of a let down. It wasn't awful by any stretch of the imagination, but it wasn't all that great either. An alien general is using Lazer Tag arenas to recruit human children to fight in their distant war, Sarah Jane investigates the disappearance of 24 children while Luke and Clyde get themselves kidnapped and transported up into space. It is not a particularly interesting or original plot, although the resolution was somewhat inventive: It turns out that the actual war had ended ten years previously, a fact of which the alien general was unaware. The armistice notice had been concealed by a malfunctioning AI that couldn't compute the notion of peace and so kept the recruitment machinery going. That, at least, was an interesting ending.
I took it kind of easy on the treadmill this morning, knowing that I would be out walking around Epcot with my son this afternoon. Even so, my positive weight loss trend continues. I don't know if I am going to hit my next target or not, but dang it if I'm not gonna try my hardest to get there.
