Sooo cute - wonder what she'll be like in 10 years...

Ok, I take it back

After watching more episodes of SATC, I realized that the chicks on that show can get REALLY annoying!!! Holy crap, some of the things they do absolutely drives me up the wall, and are often things that most of us girls have the better sense not to do. The Carrie and Big relationship is a terrible one, and she is the girliest, most needy and clingy girl ever - I can see how girls in new relationships could act like that, but to represent a woman in her 30's that way?? Terrible.

ANyway... I've decided that I can sometimes tolerate Miranda - she at least makes some sense - and Samantha - at least she puts it all out there with no shame and in a crazy and funny way.

Moko the good Samaritan dolphin

So I was reading CNN as I usually do when I'm bored at work, and came upon this story about a heroic dolphin in New Zealand.
It's about a stranded whale and her calf, and they couldn't get out of the sandbar and were almost going to be euthanized so that they wouldn't suffer, when the dolphin swam over (apparently hearing the distress calls) and helped them swim out to open water... how great is that!? I love hearing stories like that.

Hottest pic

I was going through the Allure website, doing my reading about trends as I always do, and I came upon this picture and thought it looked really cool a.k.a. hooooot.

Yummy (in a non-lesbian way).

Sex and the City

After going for a few months without some real shopping - yes, I am finally cutting down on frivolous spending and becoming fiscally (?) responsible - I went on a mini-binge on Sunday after being cooped up because of this damn snowstorm. *Note - I am not going to comment on the amount of snow we've been having cause I don't know how many more times I want to kick that dead horse.*

Anyway... Best Buy had a sale and after talking myself out of several purchases (drooool gorgeous computer screen) I bought the entire set of SATC seasons. After watching a few of them yesterday I realized how GOOD that show is!!

First off, every guy friend I have that has admitted to watching it loves the damn show. And Mr. Big - which I didn't get until I watched the shows again and realized he is the smoothest guy... no George Clooney but he holds his own. Of course the characters are outrageous, but I have acted like each one of those girls at some point in my romantic life. And the conflicts and themes are presented and wrapped up so nicely: of course I wouldn't use the show as a real guide to my romantic life, it's like a little therapy session everytime you watch it... on top of all of that, when you're trying to describe a situation to your friends, it's much easier to start with "remember when Carrie did this?" - brings everyone to the same level. Genius.

The one crappy thing is that the show ended way too "Hollywood" - they broke with their tradition of somewhat following reality, but highly doubtful Miranda would end up with Steve?? Come on. Making that movie is a $mart move - hellooo Mr. Big.
