I needed something to fulfill my "guilty pleasure spy TV" fix.  They need, need, NEED Jen Garner to guest star or, oh, Victor Garber!  I don't have much to say except I love this show. 

Pushing Daisies:



Private Practice:

I'm a week behind on this.  I really didn't like the first episode so I TiVoed the rest and just watched up until this week's as of today.  I'm liking it better.  It is slowly growing on me whereas I was waiting for it to suck me in from the get go like Grey's. 


The Office:
Loved: Everything (Best Episode of the Season)

• ( You're a Presentation Tool!!!! )

I didn't TiVo Grey's tonight which makes me a little sad but the Office more than made up for it.  I'll catch Grey's tomorrow online.

OH!  And Jon Stewart is staying with the Daily Show until at least 2010.....YAY!

Wow, I think I may have loved it.....


Yeah, I'm totally hooked on this stupid show again.  But, I'm going forward with very, very cautious optimism. And I don't give third chances....

And "The Office"....just made of total win.  Between the run for rabies, Michael running over Meredith, office porn (sex tapes and Jim Halpert shirtless), and the absolute perfection that was Jim and Pam holding hands....it just doesn't get better than that...oh wait it does...that moment where they admit they're dating...that made it the best thing ever. 

I hate you. You suck me in with all your squishy Mer/Der and then you beat me to the ground.  And just when I swear never to watch you again, you temp me with squishy promos and deleted scenes (Damn you Best Buy and your delete sex scenes!) and Patrick Dempsey smiling and telling me everything will be great this season.  Why in the back of my mind am I sure you'll just fuck me over again? 

Love, Brandi and the rest of the TV viewing audience.

PS. Why in the world were the only two scene that showed Mer/Der even touched each other for half the season cut out of the show? 

PPS: P.Demps?  If season 4 sucks...you're on notice. 

I had so much fun last night!  One of my co-workers is moving to Tennessee and we went out since it was her last weekend here.  We went to see this band play.  They are really great....they just cover a lot of rock bands...no original stuff.  We danced all night....I hadn't danced in FOREVER!  And I decided that I would drive everyone home so I'll I had was one Smirnoff Ice and then a bunch of cokes so it was kind of fun to poke fun a the drunk kids with Matt (who can't drink because of Meds) and not have a headache the next day.  I think that I'm going to get my sister to go out for her birthday to see the band.  She'll love it.

Okay but then I came home at like 2:30...and I could not sleep. Like at all.  I just laid there and thought of weird random shit.  Like the end of Season 2 of Grey's and how Derek was a bit slutty (not manwhore....that's George...just a bit slutty).  And then some how my brain switched to Harry Potter and I wondered ....I mean she didn't drop it? Harry carried a girls purse around?  What? 

But finally, I feel asleep and of course I had amazingly weird dreams.  Like twilight zone dreams..

All and alll, not a bad night but the end was kind of strange. 

Extra randomness:

1.  Mr. Gilmore is going to be on Grey's Anatomy!!!!  For three Episodes!!!  Mr. Gilmore!  FDR!  This may be the only reason I watch Grey's next season.  IT is the first thing I've heard about the new season that has made me excited for it to start.  Of course, I'm sure they will ruin it somehow by making the resident manwhore (or is that intern manwhore...hahahaha), George, try to sleep with him or something.

2.  What the hell happened to Dempsey's hair?  I think the show may jump the shark simply because of that haircut.  Wouldn't be the first time a show did that due to a haircut (Felicity anyone?).  It is like ultimate Derek emo hair.  Meanwhile, if Meredith doesn't look amazing next season it will be through no fault of Ellen Pompeo....maybe she'll take over the best hair title on Grey's.....

Later kids!

So today was interesting...in a completely boring way. 

I went to the lake and hung out under a tree.  I read and took a walk and I worked on my actual multi-part Grey's post finale epic (okay so only 5 chapters but that is epic for me).  The story is coming together like a patchwork quilt.  I have the beginning and the end of the first part (but not the middle) and I have a big chunk of the fourth part completed.  I'm actually a little in love with the fourth part right now. The fourth part just flew from my brain to the page because it is largely about Der/Mer sitting by a lake...hmmmm.....

Then I went and checked on my 500 month pregnant sister.  Seriously, the girl could pop at any minute. 

When I came home, I finished up my laundry and cleaned my room...this is a shocking thing as I do not believe that I have ever seen the entire floor of my bedroom before.  But there it is.  The carpet is blue...who knew?  Sadly the rest of my house has clean laundry strewn across it.  And then there are the dishes...I hate dishes. 

After the small cleaning spree, I went and got some Mexican food and came home to watch Heroes.  I have decided to watch one episode a day rather than a bunch in a huge sitting.  Watching large quantities of never before seen good shows is how I get in trouble and turn into a fandom crazy (see Alias).

Now I'm just hanging out listening to the new Maroon 5 album.  And I'm amazingly bored once again. 

Someone needs to post a great fan fic for me to read and pass the time. 

This is just what I needed.  This makes me giggly and squirmy and mushy inside.  This makes me think of elevators and markers and dreaminess and "Seriously!"

It can't be horrible horrible TV if it makes you angry and it makes you sad and it makes you cry and it makes you root for both sides. And I did all those things tonight.
