I am FINALLY watching the second season of "Big Love." OMG, this show. I must savor it like candy. What an amazing fucking show. I just want to give Margie a long hug, and take Nicki out for coffee and a serious heart-to-heart. But I guess she wouldn't drink the coffee, LOL... juice, I guess!
I hear good things about htis show..I should try to get it.
I never realized how expensive tv show dvds are. I REALLY want the Veronica Mars DVDs....but damn $50 per season?? And they arent going for much less on ebay.

Netflix, babe! Or the video store. I rented the first season from the local video store and watched the DVD's, and I just downloaded season two from the bit-torrent site. Took about a day and a half to download the whole second season. The speakers suck in my computer so I plugged it into the stereo and I'm watching it on my laptop screen. It's amazing.
If you do watch it, make sure you start with the pilot and watch every episode in order. It's got a very complicated plot with lots of angles, lots of characters, and twists. You can't just come in somewhere in the middle, it won't make sense.

I want the Veronica Mars to keep though.....have to keep looking for that

They are nice to own sometimes. I own all seven seasons of "Buffy" (boxed set, a gift from K), and K's got all 12 episodes of "Action" and all three seasons of "Arrested Development." Quite a bit considering how much we hate TV, but they're just awesome fucking shows and it's nice sometimes to get into a movie that lasts more than an hour and a half. It's rare for me to find a TV show I like, but "Big Love" is amazing. Too bad they gave it such a stupid title and theme song. The Beach Boys in fucking Utah... *sigh*
Anyway, on to episode 2!

I don't get it. I'm sleepy. My eyes are burning with tiredness. But I feel as if I try to go to sleep now, I will wake up in about 3 hours and then be up all night. So which is it body? What are you trying to tell me?

ah i can't wait til veronica mars gets released on dvd here. they never even screened the end of season 2 in aus, and they didn't screen any of season 3. so i had to download it all from a bit torrent site.
yek, i have the whole buffy boxed set collection too, it's my pride and joy :D

It is the shit! Although I think K kind of regrets buying it for me, because I want to watch Buffy sometimes and he doesn't like the show. He puts up with it and sits through it sometimes though because he loves me. ;D

That was such a great show. Even better watching the whole run on dvd one after another. Let me know what you think of the ending. /:O

^ I watched the first 4 seasons like that but my Blockbuster didn't have the final season!! I just ended up buying it because I had to know... someone told me I would just cry and cry the last episode. Said it was the most depressing finale ever. :x

I didn't think the last episode was depressing. I thought it was beautiful, and inspiring.

Another owner of all the Buffy ever! :wave:
Too bad they gave it such a stupid title and theme song. The Beach Boys in fucking Utah... *sigh*
Aww, you no like? I actually really love the theme song ("God Only Knows (What I'd Be Without You)"). I'm biased because I love the song anyway, but it's always made sense to me. I like the way they've taken a song that is generally understood to be about conventional monogamous love, and yet I feel we're now seeing it from Bill's perspective (his pigheadedness about things notwithstanding). God only knows what he'd be without any of them. Plus, ya know. "GOD" in the title. ;)
The other reason I like the song is totally unique to me. One of my best LDS friends from college (before I ever met my birthmom & the rest of my Mormon family) had a dad who was seriously the biggest Beach Boys fan ever. 7 kids, and two of the girls were "Rhonda" and "Barbara Ann", and a third (my friend herself) was named after a girl in a more obscure tune of theirs. Plus it's all very clean & wholesome-pop-sounding and upbeat, perfect for "Happy Valley". So even though I'd never expect anyone else to get it, Beach Boys + Mormon has always made sense to me.
I assume you know the title sequence makes visual reference to the traditionally semi-secretive proceedings in a Temple sealing, and the meaning of the planet image at the end? They know their stuff.
Yekhefah
10-25-2007, 11:12 PM
I got the planet thing (celestial marriage), but the bits with the ice skating and the curtains don't make any sense to me. I do understand why they chose the song, but the title sequence is too long and something about hearing the beach boys over snowy mountains and desert with women in wrist-length sleeves just irks me somehow. I think if it was the skating sequence OR the curtain sequence OR the celestial marriage sequence, it'd be fine. It's just too long. But that and the title are the only parts of the show I don't like. The show itself is incredible. I can't believe all the twists in this season! I just saw the first three episodes and I can't believe how much is going on!

I wish I was in a polygamist family. Not tons of wives, but I would like a wife for me and K... somebody to do the chick stuff with, share in the home, snuggle with when he's out of town. No FLDS polygamy though, I want sexual privileges with MY sister-wife. }:D
But even while watching this train wreck, I still think polygamy looks nice.

-My Mormon grandma drank Postum, which I have heard called "Mormon Coffee".
-I tried to have a discussion with my (Mormon) mom about "Big Love", and she told me how much she hated it. I asked her if she had actually watched it. Nope. Typical.

OMG!!!!! I just had GREAT sex with the SPITTING IMAGE of Daniel from Ugly Betty. But with a more muscular upper body. And a nicer nose. ;D
*pats self on back* i so hope this will be a reoccurring thing. wow. yum. wow.
and my leg decided to de-swell a few hrs before. I wore my black stripey stockings anyway, afriad of being thrown out of bed. (*ha*) he said it was a turn on and kinda felt like fucking a tim burton character. uhh.... i think i found a suitable match. hehe
... the rat refused to eat the granola I gave him. I poured in a shitload of milk. Now he's happy. geez. Lately he's been really weird and wanting to bite my nails.. not biting my fingers aggressively, but the nail itself, as in "mom, you missed a spot, lemme get it for you." rats, i tell you..

It's been raining here for 3 days, hopefully it will clear up tonight so FantasyFest can really happen. It's fun in the clubs regardless, but the street scene is what really makes the festival.
I am still suffering a bit from being mildly intoxicated last night, I think I woke up too early. Time for a power nap, lol...

I haven't started packing. I haven't even gotten boxes yet. I only have a week to do this but I just can't force myself to get started. I can't force myself to do the dishes or call the apartment manager about putting in our notice; I just can't make myself do anything. Knowing I need to be busy right now but instead I'm sitting in a dirty house full of dirty dishes with tons of packing and paperwork to do just makes me feel even more listless.
Oh well, guess I'll watch another episode of "Big Love" and have a massive seizure in a couple of days. I'm starting to get really depressed about leaving Hollywood; there's so much I wanted to do before I left, so many things I love about living here, and I can't believe I might never go wandering around Hollywood Blvd. at night anymore. I'll never spend another Sunday lounging around with K in this apartment. This has been such a huge chapter in my life and it's just over... but I can't make myself get up and turn the damn page.
I wish I had a chick friend to come over and bum aorund with me tonight. Friday before Halloween though, everyone's going to be going out. *sigh*

Ooh, that sounds good! I just made my super-easy dinner - wring out some tofu in paper towels, crumble it into a skillet with some garlic and sesame oil, fry it, stir in a little balsamic vinegar, add broccoli, cabbage, baby spinach, soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, honey, Sriracha, stir-fry a couple minutes until done. Yummy in my tummy.

You need more pictures. Like 8-10 and show your face. And perhaps a scene from the movie of you wearing them. That's how you get money.

Damn, sxy, now I really need to come out to Utah so you don't have to eat from the microwave! And you should see what goes into my stir-fry when I really feel like cooking!
But right now I kinda want to order a pizza.

10-26-2007, 05:56 PM
Stir-fry is awesome because it takes about five minutes but tastes like a great restaurant meal, and it's healthy. I eat stir-fry almost every day.
I've been an emotional weepy wreck all day over leaving Hollywood and I sent K an email about it. His response was perfect and I feel better and more capable, but nestled in the middle was this: "You being with me is going to make any town special to me. That's what's important to me. You." :blush:
Fuck, I love that guy.
