I went to the public library today and got sucked into the DVD section, and somehow, the promise of unlimited free movies and TV shows makes me suddenly think I am actually a totally different person -- one who thinks she wants to, say, watch seven DVDs worth of some BBC drama about five generations of Europe's royal families. Or one who is so dedicated to her yoga practice that she will do four different DVDs in the space of a week. The lack of commitment makes me wild and crazy! Hooray for the public library!
I've been watching the first season of Sex and the City, some of which I have actually never seen, and lo, I am entertained. There are actually references in here that I didn't even know originated with this show, and some of it is so sweetly dated... messages on answering machines, no cell phones, late-90s glasses, giant blazers. Funny. And I am eating the Irish soda bread that just came out of the oven, and J. will be home in a few minutes. Happy Saturday night.

Lol. I did that when I lived in Rochester and didn't have any tv- just a DVD player and a Netflix subscription. I watched the entire Sex and the City series, as well as all of Frazier, Scrubs, Ballykissangel, Monarch of the Glen, and Everybody Loves Raymond. :)
aw, i used to get free movies at the library every day! good memories of being a broke college student living in the commons.

Was it not totally worth it just for the episode where Charlotte doesn't want to be known as "Mrs. Up-the-b*tt"? Love that show.
Yay Twitter! I am gwen17, and I just started following you, so we are found. Hurrah!
Kel, that episode was the BEST. Ha. I also loved the one when Charlotte visited the artist who wanted to paint her "masterpiece."
