One week not watching tv...
... and it's as though I will never be "current" again. I haven't posted much here about TV lately because I'm behind and I am so confused right now what "week" I'm working on that I'm all - screw it.
TV
Arrow: Dead to Rights Sooo, Tommy knows. :) I like this. I like this a lot. I wish that he approached Tommy somewhere outside the hospital, they really need to talk - understand why Oliver did or does what he does. I thought Oliver, his eyes as he told Tommy that he had no plans of coming clean - ugh, pain. This poor guy has had so much pain.
The problem is that Oliver's little crew is big now, and Tommy knows, and Tommy's Dad is bad. Although no one but Oliver's Mom knows that. It will be interesting to see how this goes. I hope that Tommy can forgive.
And they were very heavyhanded about the picture of Sarah and the black canary. Seriously? heeeheee Hope they didn't think they were being subtle.
The Walking Dead: I Ain't a Judas Well. I have to say I'm happy to see that Rick has come back from the ledge, at least that's the way I see it at the end. He seems to be in better control and starting to put a plan together. He has damaged the faith the group had in him though, but hopefully he can find the control he needs to get his group out of the confrontation with the Governor.
Speaking of the Governor, crazy. He's just nuts and (while I didn't expect Andrea to kill him in their bed) I certainly expected something. Perhaps she thinks she can still influence him, get him to stop the attack, but he will not be stopped. He craves vengence for his eye, for disturbing his town. And I wish she has more loyal to Rick and the group, but I can see her struggle: live in a town in a bed where you can have a bath, or live in a prison and be all yucky. :P
Here's hoping Rick and crew can get it done when the Governor comes knocking.
I saw a poster for Iron Man 3. Facebook just shows me lots of posters. The one of Pepper holding the Iron Man mask with a slice down the front was spooky, but the one of Tony, no helmet but in the suit, with the flying suits in the background and the Malibu house exploding... I just think this movie is going to hurt. For whatever reason I have brought Avengers into my heart, have learned about the characters and comics (slowly) and I love Iron Man, and Tony has been hurt so badly, and this movie just seems like it's destined to ear him apart. And he won't have his friends to help him.
March is a crazy month. We are pretty much booked the whole thing except for my birthday and Easter, and considering it's the same weekend... we are booked. Overbooked I may even admit to. My Mom is having a party this weekend for my Dad's retirement, and I'm making a cake. I found one online that I think I can do: laptop.
I will bake a 9x13 cake for the bottom, then make a 9x13 pan of rice krispie treats. Then I will cover the krispies in chocolate icing and that will be the screen. I think if I make the krispies Saturday and leave them sit out, the on Sunday they will be stiff enough to stand (with the help of sticks) into the bottom of the computer. I will also be making some cupcakes to make sure there is enough cake to go around. Hopefully this is not out of league because Mr KA is busy this weekend. Friday night he is playing cards, Saturday from 3 until ? he is at a work event. So I'm going to get this cake started/done with two kids.
Oooh, it will be fine. I'll just whip out the iPad and phone when needed or pull out a movie. *g* I'm hoping my neighbors are avaiable for the kids to come over on Sunday. That would be perfect as I could put the final touches on the cake. I emailed her on Tuesday but haven't heard. She's not the best emailer and since it's their turn to host the kids it's hard me to call up and go "can the kids come over?" Although I should since I've never said no to her yet.
I will post a picture (hopefully) of the finished product.
Oh the Oscars. I did not watch *ducks* It's hard to get excited about an awards show where I didn't see many of the movies. I will say I saw more this year than previous ones recently, so it seems as though I'm getting my movie groove back. But it's not the same, won't be for years. And it makes me a little sad each year. I did record it and watch some of it, acceptance speeches of people I like, montages that I loved. So because I did it that way I have no real opinion about Seth MacFarland as a host. He has a great singing voice which was a surprise and some peppy dance moves. Did see the Avenger cast do their awkward jokes, it was nice to see them. :)
I bought myself a Zumba game for the Xbox. I've done it twice so far and it's decent, kind of fun. I can do certain kinds of dances better than others. The couch we currently have in the basement must go though cause it messes up the Kinect. I'm going to try and do it again tonight, but exercising at 6:45 is not motivating. It's after I've eaten and it's the only down time of the day, so I don't get to sit with the kids and watch tv and read. I'm just bitter I can't get up at 5am and do it without it totally screwing with the schedule. Really wish there was a better way of getting in shape/losing weight.
And I'm sure I have more to say about tv shows but I can't think of anything at this time.
