I saw TransAmerica a few weeks ago, too! And I plan to read Luna next. Dude, you and I are hovering around on the same frequency . . .

yup, ANTM is definitely doing something wrong, because this is about the 4th season that i've threatened to stop watching (and i've been watching since it began), but apparently i just can't stay away.

this season does seem a little more "real" than the last one (i still think the whole thing with whitney was rigged). i'm excited to see what's to come.

i honestly don't think isis is model material (i saw much prettier trannies on a daily basis when i was living in LA), but i LOVE her spirit.
