Back home, picked up the flu
Mar. 21st, 2011 11:02 amI had a great trip out to California (even though I got seriously tired of people being outright dicks to my husband and I when they heard we were from Texas. Really? I'm here trying to buy things from you and you're going to insult me to my face? Guess I won't be buying from you, then) but met enough really super people that it (mostly) washed away the bad taste of the few that were Turd Fergusons.
(Note: I don't care what your thoughts are on yaoi or Texas. It's my home. Just like I wouldn't come to your home and insult it because I'm all weird about having manners and decency like a lame-o.)
Came home to sick kids, nursed them back to health, and then was rewarded with a head filled with liquid anvils, shivers, fever, and aches.
So I'm going back to bed. Updates with pictures, recs, etc. to come tomorrow - I mean, come on, we went to Endor! :) Gotta share that stuff.
Oh, and for those that follow, Big Love's recaps are updated, and there is a new Spartacus recap as well by Liz. Show her some love!

In any case, (and wow, I say that in Arabic so much I had to think really hard for the English) I hope that you get to feelin' better.

Date: 2011-03-21 07:15 pm (UTC)And yay for your review of Big Love! I've never seen the show, but Mormonism in general (and polygamy in specifics) fascinates me, so I lovingly read your recaps.
Thought you might find this interesting - an interview with the show's creators about the ending. SPOILER ALERT: it's all spoilers! http://www.npr.org/2011/03/21/134661696/big-loves-creators-deconstruct-the-shows-finale?sc=fb&cc=fp

Boo hiss about coming down with a cold! I am sending healing thoughts your way, plus 10 grams of coke in the mail to perk you right on up.
