CHUCK SAVED!!!

Picked up for 13 episodes and lots of stimpulations concerning budget but Chuck is coming back next season....

Other awesome shows coming back include Dollhouse (seriously I was worried about this one), Smallville (lets see some Lois and Clark action please), Better Off Ted (high-lar-ious), and more that I can't think of right this moment because it is only 6:26 in the morning. YAY CHUCK!!!

In Defense of Romance

I just read a great interview with the two woman who run the Smart Bitches, Trashy Books website. I haven't spent much time on it myself, but it definitely looks interesting. 



Anyway, the interview focused on their new book, Beyond Heaving Busoms: The Smart Bitches Guide to Romance Novels. Apparently, "these two ladies have created a humorous guidebook for the discerning smut reader. And since romance readers tend to fly through five of these books a week, having someone else sift through the junk is like clipping coupons before going to the grocery store; it just makes good economic sense." Click here to read more. 

I particularly like when Flavorpill asks Sarah Wendell "why should feminists read romance novels?" Her response: "It’s a 50-plus-year-old industry comprised mostly of women writers operating their own businesses and producing a genre about women’s self-actualization, pursuit of autonomy, and acquisition of sexual agency for an audience made mostly of women, who buy over $1.4 billion dollars worth of books a year. No, no, nothing feminist or even subversive about that."

I feel better about myself already!

A Typical Day

While my husband was out of town:

- Get up early
- Work
- Read for a few hours (or eight, as the case may be), thus providing a warm lap for the cat (a very important consideration)
- Eat Cream of Wheat for dinner 
- Crawl into bed to keep reading at 9:30PM

Yes, folks, I do lead an exciting life. Try not to be too jealous, ok?
