Gilmore Girls and other things I once loved...

Yes! I'm going to talk about Gilmore Girls again! I have been reading some other blogs that want to bitch and whine about this years writing and I agree it's not good, but come on!! Season 6 kind of sucked the big one too! One blog had the link to this cartoon about Gilmore Girls it's pretty right on about what is missing from a once beloved show. I'm ready to put it in a shoe box in the back yard now. Maybe if Heroes hadn't been such a success then Gilmore Universe would have been alright? Maybe Milo and Alexis would have stayed together, and they meaning Jess and Rory would have gotten back together. Rory always changes her mind about who she likes anyway! Then again we wouldn't have Heroes... It's sad to exchange one show for another. But anyway...

Work was hectic and crazy- I feel completely overwhelmed with trying to do all the Christmas/Holiday things and I totally feel like I'm struggling to accomplish it all. I just can't believe that Christmas is here. Yes, I'm going to talk about the weather- brace yourself. It's beautiful out, I am going to shit bricks when real winter hits us. I do enjoy going outside with the kids at work, but I'm not looking forward to snow days. If you consider getting one child securely in their snow pants, boots, coat, hat, and mittens a tough task- then take it times 16 and you can envision the lovely situation we face everyday.

I went to the library and got the following movies- The Break-up (even though I had seen it before and wasn't impressed), X-men 3: The Last Stand, Roman Holiday (unwatched for about the fifth time I've checked it out), and now here is where it gets a little goofy- Nanny McPhee, and Garfield- A Tail of Two Kitties. I love my taste in movies- I wonder what a TiVo would suggest for my viewing pleasure??

Anyway- I rewatched The Break-Up (still not the best- but at least the sound wasn't going in and out through the whole thing like it did in the theater I saw it in). The funniest part is of course when Jennifer Aniston's brother (John Michael Higgins) does an impromptu version of Yes' Owner of a Lonely Heart. It is worth watching the movies special features to see an alternate ending. It ends with Higgins character and Justin Long's character performing Rainbow Connection in Cowboy and Indian Maiden outfits- it was priceless!

X-Men was strange and I felt like I should have watched the second one again because I had forgot that Jean had died and I was confused. I might have to re-watch it in the future. I still haven't watched the other three, I'm not sure that I will.

Speaking of things that I check out and never use. I checked out Stephen King's Cell and actually opened it- and I'm terrified already. I have an obsession with his masterpiece 'The Stand' and lately I have been a fan of Dawn of the Dead (the new one). Cell is like a hybrid of both with of course the terrifying (and possible??) outcomes of everyone having a cell phone. Because when people are scared, confused, and needing answers and/or help they just whip out their cell phone (example- 9/11 or when I need to talk to my parents about a celebrity death- R.I.P. Frank Barone). Anyway- I probably shouldn't read anymore, but it's useless I'm hooked.

Good night and Merry Christmas!
