We've had Netflix for 3 days and already JP is hooked. I shouldn't have started him on the strong stuff, letting him do his own searches and signing in on his PS3. I'm not much better, with my 11-part miniseries on the British monarchy, but I've had Netflix before. I can handle it. I can quit any time I want.

I did finally watch North & South, the BBC miniseries that I've heard so much about. And while it was a bit melodramatic (people dropping like flies, family members on the lamb, and every single man in love with the same woman), I LOVED IT! Mainly because of him:




Love the character of John Thornton. Imagine Mr. Darcy as a tradesman. Hubba, hubba. I'm such a sucker you guys, I kid you not.

I have fallen in love with The Mighty Boosh (a little late to the party, but whatever) after JP foisted a few episodes on me. It's just absurd and lovely and funny and whimsical and even though I haven't seen all the seasons, I am already re-watching some of the eps. I have really weird crushes on the four main characters (including a lisping Naboo and the guy in the gorilla suit).

Don't be jelly, JP - you are still my number 1 weirdo!

Hmmm, I think that's it except to say I made a carrot turnip mash the other day and it was delish!

Oh, the excitement! I can't take it!

Mmm, finally made some chocolate-frosted banana cupcakes. Yay! Took the majority of them to work so I don't sit at home and eat a dozen in one sitting.

Ugh. I am so sick of my messy room and messy house! Almost sick enough to do something about it. Er...

Working massive overtime because we took Wednesday off for the holiday and the first week of the month is always busy. So, I came home today and took a lovely nap in which I had a very long, meandering dream where I jumped in and out of characters and Blake Lewis came to my grandma's house and painted a mural on her living room wall! Yeah, I know. What the Hell did I put in those cupcakes?

Also, I don't know if it's all the rain or what, but I've been getting really emotional. Especially at night when I am in bed, trying to sleep. I hate that. Not just the big, overwhelming desperation, but from a technical aspect: I get all stopped up with snot. That sucks.

Maybe I need some retail therapy?

Wow.

Okay.

Embarrassing confession #767: The dream I had last night was both funny and pathetic. Pathetic in the sense that I am waaaay too emotionally invested in American Idol. So, the dream is that JP and I are living in a house that looks a lot like my parent's place, except it has a huge lawn. On the side of the house, AI contestent Blake Lewis has set up a DJ station, including some instruments and a small stage. Every evening, he plays music and sings and there is a big party on my lawn.

Well, this is all fine until one day Blake tells me he doesn't love me. So, JP gets mad at him for hurting my feelings (how sweet is that?) and also he's upset because Blake is ruining the lawn. So he tells Blake to clean up the yard and get the Hell out. The dream ends as I am going outside to check on him and he is all sweaty and mad and, strangely enough, talking to my brother's roommate. Huh.
