shipperx* Hope everyone in the U.S. had a nice holiday.
* I got plenty of sleep and I've been eating (somewhat) normally. I haven't been sickened from anything but I find I'm still grossed out really easily.
* Watched all of John Adams over the weekend... seemed a very 4th of July type mini-series.
* Watched True Blood and at least they finally got to the book plot all the Eric fans have been salivating over since the beginning of forever (though I have to say, I read that particular Charlaine Harris book and eh. But, hey, at least it's not Meg Cabot's vampire book (which I saw on Amazon yesterday has a sequel. Holy cow, why?! Book 1 sucked!) With True Blood, I actually enjoy the show more than the books.
* Taking a vacation from "depressing books" GRRMartin style and have begun reading "The Help". I've been enjoying it thus far. And I see there's a movie coming up.
* Watched several eps of Drop Dead Diva since they were replaying by marathon and not much was on. Though I still think they dropped the ball on the "OMG, Grayson almost died" cliffhanger. I tip my hat to their handling of the main character struggling with her ex becoming engaged to someone else and asking her to be 'best man' because -- ouch. Hard not to feel for the protagonist with that one. And good for her, for trying to be a good friend but also not wallow in self pity as she goes out on dates with a new guy who likes the 'new her' just fine.
