Congrats for completing the test, ita-- if you don't know that you've failed, I'm sure you passed.
ION, I just watched the first two hours of The Tudors. I'm kind of torn between judging it "disappointingly middlebrow" and "fucking ridiculously hilarious." There are some howlers of exposition / theme-laying dialogue, but maybe not enough to make ten hours of TV miniseries worthwhile.
bon, just tell me one thing: JRM doesn't have to run, does he?
Well, I don't think he has to run, he does, however, and I am not making this up,
wrestle half-naked with the King of France.
Seriously?
Huh.
So, how long do you think until just that part's up on YouTube?
If one of the fourteen-year-old girls to whom this miniseries is clearly aimed is also a vidder, should be in about a week. Expect Evanescence.
here I came to see how ita was doing, and I have to admit that bon bon has stopped me cold.
JRM nude wrestling?
Why must I wait a week?
Finished Rome tonight with the friends (including a 16 year old who has been a HOOT to share this with) I've spent every Roman Sunday with since the beginning of the series. We are all hugely bummed that it is over...what will we do with our Sundays now? And just a teensy bit disappointed in the end.
All was well until
they went for a cutesy close.
Too bad they didn't quit with
Atia's thousand yard stare. That was poignant with a capital HATE.
The casting was so good...I'd love to see them all in something else...no wait, I've already seen most of them elsewhere...MORE!
This weekend also saw a friend introduce me to my new soopersekritcelebrity boyfriend. Mike Rowe of Discovery's Dirty Jobs has completely stolen my heart. I can't imagine the fan mail that one must get.
I'm glad you survived, ita, and sending passing~ma your way.
I did a bad thing today. I fell asleep watching a movie and ended up sleeping for 4 hours this afternoon. Now I can't sleep. At all. I have Stuff I need to do, so I can make use of this awake time, but tomorrow is going to suck.
Don't wanna go back to work tomorrow. Really, really don't wanna.
Sigh. Er, in other news, job hunt starting up. Semi-interview Tuesday (sort of pre-interview visit, just to prolong the anxiety). Does it ever get easier?
