The shallow end.
I only have one thing to say to Grey's Anatomy: I hope at least the shark's butt is cute.
That was the longest two hours of television I think I have ever sat through. I'll admit, I thought the idea of giving Addison her own show had a tiny bit of promise. But I found myself screaming "This is HORRIBLE" at almost every scene featuring the new spin-off. So now she's this giddy woman who desperately wants a baby? I know there were little snippets back at Grey's when you could tell that was something she may have wanted, but it was totally unrealistic for her to be so desperate. The only scenes I liked her in were when she was dealing with the surrogate and delivering the baby. It's sad when even Taye Diggs can't redeem something. And Grey's itself was passable. I thought the end with Mer and her dad was pretty emotion-stirring, but it was just too little, too late.
I can't say I'm going to break up with Grey's, but I don't know if I'll feel the need to watch it "live" instead of letting my DVR deal with it.
On a happier note, though not for my wallet, I've discovered that via Zappos, I can find extremely awesome and fashionable children's shoes. While I was reluctant to jump on the ballet flat bandwagon at first, I think it was because it annoyed the crap out of me when women wore them in 20-degree weather. Then I realized it would be good to have a lighter alternative to flip flops this spring and summer. And then I found these. ::sigh:: I am in true Shoe Luv. Unfortunately, I received them yesterday in a size Youth 3.5, which, I sadly learned after some faulty measurements, is close to a woman's 5.5. Way too big. I was stepping out of them. But because Zappos is awesome, they are shipping me out a pair in 2.5 right away, and letting me do an even exchange if I ship the others back in 2 weeks. I also got very cool rain boots in a Youth 3, which I also might have to end up exchanging for a 2.5. As long as it doesn't pour any time soon.
For work, I am contemplating getting these. The Alanis-type irony of the fact that I am getting shoes from a brand called Playhouse for work does not escape me.
And here I thought that having small feet would protect me from shoe splurges. Well, at least the rain boots and office shoes will be functional!
