Sean -- so was I!
Top Chef: Wow,
the promos were really no indication at all! I was fully expecting Harold to be in big trouble and for the main ingredients to be disgusting. I also thought meanly of how much Stephen would have enjoyed the ingredients but also that he wouldn't have been able to do them justice. I was very pleased that Harold did so well and also that Dave pulled off his dish as well. I was very disappointed that Lee Anne didn't make it to the final -- is she Top Chef's Austin Scarlett? Now, Harold MUST WIN.
The Top Chef white font is taunting me. I have to wait for Dave to get home to watch it.
sumi, re Top Chef:
I was thinking the same thing
about Stephen, and how he would have flipped to work with those ingredients, and how he wouldn't have done them justice. I almost wish he had been in the top four, because he would have botched it so bad, he'd be a clear loser. But he also didn't have what it took to get that far, so I hope he's livid, and from the previews for next week, it looks like he is.
Of course then I remember I'm not endowed with preternatural strength and freak out again, but that's neither here nor there.
Then go with a Buffy character with no supernatural abilities. "What would Xander do?"
Also, Top Chef fans -- be sure to read Tom's Blog this week -- it's VERY interesting.
He'd think of what Buffy was wearing, which probably has a different effect on a 39 year old housewife and mother of three, than it does on 20-something year old males.

Okay, another Buffy character. Willow, nope, magic superpowers. Oz, nope, werewolf. Giles, well he's British but that's not a superpower. There you go, "What would Giles do?"
...and that would distract you when when it's dark and you're all alone. See it works.
Poor me. I didn't watch Lost last night and now I'm going to have to wonder all day what the hell happened.
