Logan-centric (and a bit on vanity, too)

dangermousieReason Number 805 I love my husband. We ended up discussing Veronica Mars last night, specifically Logan, his prompting. *Pets marital jackpot*
The result of our dissection of his character? Logan's huge problem is that he is bored, bored, bored (well, that, and the screaming need for therapy). He has no family to fall back on (before or after Aaron's arrest and Lynn's suicide), he has no friends to fall back on, as his best friend is in a drugged stupor and the rest of them are not very bright and are at arms' length. Veronica is the only person who's engaged him all of the last year plus.
Of course, the guy is not getting any mental stimulation and going stir-crazy this way, which is probably part of why he's shown to be an intense gamer (well, that and blood-lust :P), and he can't go looking too far afield for more "fun" until recently because of his father's image concerns.
I actually adored my husband's view on skid row boxing :P He says it takes a certain amount of degenerate creativity. You have to come up with it (do you just wake up in the morning thinking "the sun is shining, let have bum-fights), you have to organize it and find the bums. Wrong, but clever. Unlike Jackie, who in his opinion, is "typical."
Heh.
In other news, walking past a construction site is always a boost to one's ego, especially when wearing a tight sweater. My Spanish is not the best, but workers excitedly telling each other "Mira, Mira, esa" I can comprehend. ROFL.
