I had a hard time getting into it at first. From the previews I thought it was going to be better. I think it has to do with the characters. There's not enough back story or characterization for me to like or dislike them. But after watching it last night, I've decided that I do like it and will try to give it a chance.
What about you?

I don't like it, Mimi. It's just not believable. First off, isn't that guy who plays the mad scientist the same who poured oil all over himself in Return of The King and set himself ablaze? No American show casting a now-deceased, British-born, Shakespearian-trained actor in a leading role is ever worth it's weight in quid. I really must get a handle on my hyphen-usage. I'm abusing the privelege again. I have to admit some of my dissapointment may be coming from the fact that upon first hearing the title of the show I assumed it would be one of those uber-cool (oops) reality shows like that one with the hair stylists who switch salons for a week, though this one would be fashion industry based. (god, I so wanted to use a hyphen after the word fashion but I refrained).
You do, however, have to respect anyone who's smart enough to hammer and pestle their own narcotics, though, like the aforementioned now-deceased, British-born, Shakespearian-trained actor did in last nights episode . That's talent.
Okay, I know I suck. I haven't written hardly anything in weeks. My adoring fans (all 3) have probably deserted me by now. Well..... I'm back! It finally stopped raining so I can come out and play. The depression has lifted (almost) and I am feeling better. Thanks for the kind comments. I do have some good news. I have lost 6 1/2 pounds in a week and half! Yay !!! Shout it from the rooftops! I am. Really, I stood on my roof and shouted; "I lost 6 1/2 pounds!" Shortly after that some little men in white coats showed up at my house and tried to carry me away.... No really, I am excited about the weight loss. My secret? There's not one. I started counting calories and doing a little (and I do mean a little) bit of walking on the treadmill and of course the Wii -Fit! (I got a great work out with by lifting it and moving it around every time I needed to dust or vacuum) I have been going to my doctor's appointments. Today was the Gastronolgist visit. I
The rain was pouring out of the sky like a giant pitcher of water being poured into a shot glass. Roads were flooded and the little island just below the water fall had disappeared from sight. Tornadoes had been spotted earlier and the weather service warned against being out on the road due to power lines down and low visibility . This was the scene when I discovered my teenager had snuck out in the car. My 16 year old son had asked if he and a friend could go somewhere in the car. I said no and explained the weather situation to him. He had a friend over whose parents had given him the same warning. Stay put they were told. The rain had let up and they asked if they could walk over to another friend's house who lived in the neighborhood. I said that was okay... just do not take a car. They took the car. I decided to call and check on them and let them know it was getting late and I wanted them to come home. (I was sleepy and needed my beauty rest) He told me okay and would
I'm sorry I've been gone so long. It's been a hectic week. Christmas was wonderful. I got a Wii -fit. Is someone trying to tell me something? It told me my Wii -fit age is 58. Wow. I guess I'll just go ahead and die now. Screw new year resolutions! I don't have a whole year left anyway. Seriously, I tried to come up with some resolutions, but I can't think of anything. Maybe I'll try to floss more regularly or something.... Tell me some of your resolutions. Lose weight? Exercise more? Spend more time with kids? Let me know...I'm interested....no really I am! I promise to write more later. I just wanted to post something asap so you wouldn't think I was dead (yet) because according to the Wii -fit I'm not only Wii -fat, I'm Wii -old!
