I made spaghetti pie for dinner last night. It came out okay. Good enough to eat, but not good enough to keep the leftovers. There wasn't much anyway, because it was a recipe I got from my Cooking For Two magazine. Casey said it was pretty good, but then barely touched it, so I don't know what that was about. Tonight we shall have leftover ( Read more... )

HEY! Long time no talky. I missed TDS something fierce. I thought the interview was kinda interesting. I like how they are forced back on the air so all they talked about was the strike. Also? Total icon love. lolz

Hiya!

Yes, my bedtime routine was empty without TDS, so I was glad to have it back. The interview made me uncomfortable because the guy didn't seem to know how to answer Jon's questions. He was just kind of using the interview to talk about the strike situation.

I did, however, like when he referred to himself as "smallish", and also the strike unibrow and when he was like "I wore the same everything." LOL

I know, that icon is cute, right? I love that scene.

I forgot about Dance Wars! Was gonna watch. But sounds from your review like it too is "Good enough to eat, but not good enough to keep the leftovers."

LOL, pretty much. But I'm interested to see the rest of the season now that the teams have been chosen. This one was mostly about the audition process. So it was like 2 hours of watching people try out, and that got old kind of fast. Although on American Idol and So You Think You Can Dance (which this is pretty much a cross between), they spend weeks showing just that stuff, so I guess I'm glad they fast-forwarded that a bit.

first question. did i ever finish it? yep. the first time at about age thirteen. the millionth time a few months ago. lol. seriously i can tell yo family tree down to the four kid's great-great-great uncle! lol

edit: i am leaving this comment alone because i find it hilarious that i thought you said flowers in the attic. i mean they are the same title just about. same writer, too. i still think ghostwriter was DUMB to make a book with a title so close to the originals.

spoilers to those who have not read fita:

I thought it was good for the most part. I had a very hard time putting it down each night, even when my eyelids were forcing themselves down and trying to make me go to sleep. But I thought that some of the writing was way too cheesy.

some of it could be, yes. she's not anne rice descriptive and uses similar phrasing a lot which made roleplaying her characters easier but i started with her at an early age so it was a bit mature when i was 13. a book she wrote that has no sequeals/prequeals that is written without the less cheesy aspect - my sweet audrina. it's the only solo book she has that doesn't have other books to go along. the storyline FREAKED me out the first time i read it and i swear everytime i have read it since, i caught something new i didn't catch the previous reads.

I know VC Andrews books are like that, but this one seemed worse. To me it was obvious that this was a man trying to write things he thinks teenage girls would say and think and getting it horribly ( ... )

Ha ha, that was really funny that you thought I meant Flowers, but understandable. At first I was like WTF?, how could she have read this at 13? LOL ( ... )
