Pulled out Tori Amos' Boys For Pele today. I had forgotten just how awesome some of the first songs on the CD, like Blood Roses, were. Plus, I listened to this CD over and over one summer, so it brings back good memories. :)
I just got done watching 8 Simple Rules. At times I started thinking about John Ritter's passing, which is (of course) incredibly sad. My heart continues to go out to his family and friends, and I still find it upsetting. At the same time, though, it was kind of nice to be able to see him. He's so lovable and hilarious and it made me thankful that we, as television viewers, were able to enjoy his talent for as long as we were. I don't know if that makes sense or not, and I don't mean to disrespect him or his loved ones. I guess I'm just saying that it's nice to be able to celebrate all that he accomplished and all the joy he brought to the world.
Okay, enough depth (or depth for me, anyway). Reactions to the show itself (not keeping in mind anything about real life, or the future of the show)? I thought it was a pretty good episode; a little different at times (the cafeteria scene was kind of weird), but I laughed quite a lot at several points. It was fun to see Shirley, I mean, Mrs. Doyle. Rory was hilarious -- loved the guitar, loved his making breakfast, loved his delivery on everything. Kyle was pretty funny, too, especially the faces he made with the whole pudding thing. On a completely, entirely superficial note, I don't really like Bridget's hair. Which I know is obviously unimportant in the scheme of things, but whatever.
I had all these other things I was going to say in this entry that were at least somewhat interesting, but I seem to have forgotten them all. Um... yeah, I got nothing. *g*
Oh, and I just heard from crazyjay that Gordon Jump (of WKRP fame) passed away. Rest in peace, Gordon.
