Friday night, I watched this week’s Vampire Diaries. (Yay for the DVR!) Earlier I had posted that I was on the fence about this show but was tempted to try the grass in their yard. But their grass is full of holes, so I think I might just stay in my yard.
I got really frustrated with this week’s episode, the 5th so far. My last post, I was lamenting about how long they could drag out the two-brothers-longing-for-the-same-girl story. Now I’m lamenting the lack of time being spent on certain plot points. Things are moving just a tad too fast. We’re five episodes in and so far, Elena and Stefan have met, started dating, fallen in love, he joined the football team, won over her ex-boyfriend, and are just the new uber cute couple on campus. By the end of the fourth episode, Elena is questioning Stefan’s every move, arguing with him about how he’s keeping things from (more…)

So I’m watching Oprah’s Friday LIVE show. She seems to yell that whenever she’s announcing it.
LIVE!
Anyway, her third guest is Harry Connick Jr, and while watching this, it occurs to me……..what is up with is jawline?? He’s got an odd jawline. Why have I never seen this?? It’s skews to the right. It’s like Popeye’s jawline…..without the jowls of course.
Or the corncob pipe.
Or the large amount of spinach spilling out.
Mere saw it too and asked if he was missing half his jaw! Can’t understand why I’ve never noticed this.
Well at least he sings better than Popeye. uggugg uggugg uggugg ugg…..

As most people know, I am a vampire fan. My favorite show is Buffy The Vampire Slayer. I love Angel. And I am a Twilighter (not a Twi-hard mind you), so naturally I had to check out Vampire Diaries. I had not heard good things, so I have been expecting it to suck. After tonight’s episode, the third, I am still on the fence, but am tempted to try the grass in their yard. (hmm…yes, I just made myself a cow in this metaphor.) Anyway, the pilot left something to be desired. The two leads, Nina Dobrev and Paul Wesley as Elena and Stefan, had about as much chemistry as a 5 year old’s toy science kit. And it seemed Paul was trying to pull his best broody Boreanaz. David did it better, and without as big of a head. (I’ll get to that in a minute.) And I had a hard time buying Ian Somerhalder as a bad vamp. Ian portrays Stefan’s brother Damon, who relishes their vampire life as much as Stefan hates and rejects it. I like Ian better when he’s trapped on an island in the South Pacific. (more…)

As some of you know, the only reality tv program I will watch in this sea of reality shows is Dancing With The Stars. I’m a dancer, so I like it. Why haven’t I gotten into So You Think You Can Dance? I don’t know. If you have any ideas, let me know. But I always post comments about the shows on another site, and decided, the hell with it, I’m posting them here.
Ok, so this season….16 couples….two nights of dancing…..double elimination today. EEK! I didn’t bother with comments on the men from Monday night’s show. Had company at the house and couldn’t make notes. (Yep, I’m that big of a geek…I make notes during the show.) I will say however, that I think Louie (more…)
