Dialog of the Month (From Dr. Horrible):
Penny: Well, I’ve gotten turned down from plenty of jobs, even fired a few times.
Billy: I can’t imagine anybody firing you.
Penny: Neither could I. Now I can visualize it really well.
Highlights:
1. School started, writing time began, and I’m actually writing! Yay!
2. I’m finally feeling healthy enough to socialize with and email friends. Excellent.
Fiction Books Finished:
*** ½ Size Fourteen is Not Fat Either, by Meg Cabot- The second Heather Wells chick-lit mystery is even more fun to read than the first, although grislier.
Non-Fiction Books Finished:
None- I’m still trying to read way too many non-fiction books at once.
Movies:
None- too much good TV available right now
TV Enjoyed:
**** Supernatural, current season – mighty interesting season arc so far.
**** The Big Bang Theory, current season- hilarious season premiere. I love Sheldon.
*** ½ Skins (BBC America)- is sort of like an R-rated British version of Degrassi that co-stars the young actor from About a Boy. He’s all nicely grown up now though. It’s a blend of far-fetched plot lines, realistic—yet super dysfunctional– plot lines, and natural teen dialog (compared to the glossy American teen shows). I’m totally sucked in by it.
*** ½ Mad Men, current season
*** Fringe, new show
*** True Blood (HBO), new show
*** X-Files, season 1 on DVD- dubbed in French with English subtitles
Sub Jobs:
1 day- second grade class
1 day- kindergarten class
1 day- as the art teacher in a different school than I usually sub at. It was fun to teach 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders again.
