I wonder if anyone will give me chocolate for having 302 blog entries?
Seems unlikely.
Elric did give me a gingerbread man on Tuesday and it had chocolate on it and sprinkles and pebbles for eyes. I had a cheerful one. Elric had a particularly angry looking one-eyed one.
My weekend is much desired. I am counting down the hours til the end of work. (Less than 4 now...) I have a brand new scrapbooking magazine at home for perusal, but I won't get to it tonight. Chelle's drinks are tonight. We gave her the awesomest present ever (for Chelle): a CSI board game. Oh the appropriateness.
Was talking to Seraph's fiance, Zephfi and Chelle last night about shows like SVU. (Special Victims Unit.) I have ranted about this kind of thing before but I just don't get why people want to watch shows that are based around sexual violence and child molestation. I'm like, that stuff is bad. By perpetuating it on TV and we almost kind of making it not so bad?
Ok, so the shows are about the people who track down and convict the sexual criminals and peadophiles, but still. Why have that premise? Why not make it a regulark, run of the mill murder show?
The only murder mystery show I ever watched regularly was Jonathan Creek. What is it about English TV that is so much better that the American stuff? Plus, mostly the show was about how weirdly intuitive and clever Jonathan was...less about the murders that sometimes occured, more about the way in which he'd solve it in about 20 minutes and then let Caroline puzzle it out with the viewers.
Aaaahhh I miss that show. I'd love to own it on DVD.
That was a disconnected rant. Thanks for joining us.
