Chicken? Egg? Mindless gore? Mindless post more like it. 2007, October 28

It’s been pretty uneventful around here. Which sucks. Because I am bored to tears, or at least in a way I wish I was because then at least I would have tears and be crying, which would mean actually having something to do. A lazy weekend probably sounds great to some/many people. It’s actually really bad for me. I feel like I haven’t talked to another person in 3 years and I hate that. Makes me feel messed up and sorry for myself, and then I hate the self-pity. Lovely cycle, this.

Dear F/X 2007, October 25

You gotta bring back Damages. It is the best show on American television. The writing is superb, Glenn Close is perfect, and the twists, well, you don’t even see them coming. All the actors are good and I love the story line and I loved how it went back and forth between weeks, filling in details in such a unique way. I read somewhere that even though it is critically acclaimed it has yet to be picked up for a second season. You can’t leave me hanging with the whole FBI thing and Ellen and Patty and is so-and-so dead now and who has gotten who killed and/or tried to. Whatever I think, I know a twist will be coming. This is one of the most satisfying season finales I have ever seen. Don’t you dare make it a series finally. You owe us more than that. And you certainly owe Glenn Close more than that!

This TV season has been extremely disappointing. Like, so many promising shows that have turned crappier and crappier each week. it’s horrible when I simply don’t care about the characters. Each week I erase more and more shows from my DVR schedule.But I have savored, truly savored, this show each week. You gotta bring the best show in tv back. Damages rocks.

(Oh and Dear TNT, I also love Saving Grace and think Holly Hunter is fascinating in it. These amazing actresses are bringing a higher level of their craft to television and their projects benefit from this, from the writing to the directing to everything… Can’t wait till it comes back!)

UPDIT:
Holy crap I thought we was gonna lose. But with 1:15 left Miami scores a touchdown!And then with 1:05 left the Canes take the ball from the Semonholes and guess what?Touchdown Miami!!! This is one of the biggest rivalries in college football. Especially for those of us who went/go to either school. I was a student at UM during the famous years of “wide right.” We may suck this year and even be unranked (good lord) but we just played a hell of a game. Super close, Holes thought they had it, smiling and cheering and shit and…Hurricanes win! 37-29 FINAL.

(1) I am loathe to admit this because every time I do something “positive” for myself, particularly in this area, I get all freaked out and it’s like I don’t want anyone to know. Very effed up, I know. Maybe it’s from being called fat by satan and his family for years, so I am very self-conscious about this stuff. Especially when they always said if I would just try, I could lose weight. Poor thing, such a pretty face, but… UGH. People do not realize that words hurt children. Let me repeat that: Words Hurt Children. They believe them and integrate them and it’s hard to shake them off (see: me!). So when I do the dreaded I-hate-this-so-much “e” word, I hate to admit it. But, um, let’s just say I may have entered a building today with certain equipment that is for toning and cardio and all that. And spent a while there. Shh…

(2) I am watching college football at the moment. This is the one game I have to at least watch part of every year. UM vs. FSU. I hate FSU. And I cannot stand their coach. His face on the scree…ugh. So I am actually watching a football game, but we’ll see how much of it I can watch. Must be doing other stuff as well, of course. I always tell people to listen closely to when this game is on. The semenholes have that whole tomahawk chop and chant. Well, Miami participates, too. Except we stick out our middle fingers and we chant ‘fuck you seminoles, seminoles fuck you.’ And I have totally heard that on tv at times. So I am watching the game and thinking, wow, this is really bright. And then I realized big Duh. I am watching the game on HDTV.
