Television idols

I didn't know what I was going to write about today until I decided to put my pair in pigtails. Now if you remember, last week I cut and colored my hair again. It's almost too short to put in pigtails, but not quite. :) So I put in playful pigtails. And when I looked in the mirror, I saw it. They were so Veronica Mars-esque.








It made me think about how when watching that show, I just wanted to be Veronica. She's so hard hitting and witty and funny. And intelligent. Every once in a while I catch myself making one of her faces. I think if I could be any tv character for a day, it would totally be her.

Now if I got to steal one character's wardrobe? That would definitely be Lorelei Gilmore. That woman has more amazing dresses and boots than anyone! One of the seasons has an extra dedicated to the evolution of her and Rory's clothes. She's got hip work clothes, but knows the value of a cute t-shirt and jeans. Also, her jewelry rocks!

If I'm stealing mode of transportation, hands down that's The Doctor's Tardis. :) Seriously, any place in space or time? Also, who doesn't love that funny wheezing noise and the fact that it's larger on the inside. Oh, and it has both a library and a swimming pool.

As for TV jobs, I'd have to go with Richard Castle's mystery writer on Castle. I would love to write mystery novels. I know that I don't have the talent, but how fun would that be? Spinning the story while solving a case. Sign me up!

  1. I love this topic and I would totally steal it from you if I weren't going to choose the exact same people/things!

April weekends

I just solidified plans for this weekend today when it hit me: my April weekends are all over the place, and well so very me. Keeping with my new reality of being around Dubuque much more often than I have in the past, I'll be here for 3 of the 4 weekends. Ok, and by here I mean mostly here. I'll explain below. April 6-7 Julien Dubuque International Film Festival --I went to the festival last year with Gretchen. We had so much fun! We ended up seeing a different set of films than we originally thought, but it was still a blast. I was lucky enough to attend the Beloit International Film Festival with Kyle and his family last month, and this year he's coming down to spend the weekend watching films with me. Plus Nicole will be around for the weekend so she's coming along too! April 13-14 Twins game with Amy--We've got tickets to the Twins-Mets game on Sunday so I'll be driving back up to The Cities (I was just there over St. Patrick's Day weekend). I have...

--Weekly Wrap Up--

Media/fashion round up of my week TV: One issue with being a fan of a British TV show? Having to avoid spoilers until you can find a copy of it online to watch. Thankfully a twitter acquaintance posted a link to Matt Smith's debut episode of Doctor Who. I wasn't sure I was going to enjoy the show without the darling David Tennant, but it was ok. I still enjoyed it. He's no David Tennant, but I'll definitely still watch. I love the cheeky humor. I also watched the first 8 episodes of season 2 of Veronica Mars while cleaning. Is there a better way to clean? Books: I finally got around to reading "If I Stay" by Gayle Forman. It's amazing. I got quite sucked in to the book. It had me sobbing by the end. I really appreciate books that can tell a story so well that I'm emotionally tied to the characters. If you haven't read it or are not a YA reader, you should pick it up. It's about a 17-year old girl who has a major decision to make about life. I...

Booklist

I found this in my RSS feed this morning and thought it was a nice way to start the day. It is a list created by the National Endowment for the Arts, and a blogger writes that they claim most American adults have read only six of these hundred books. I've read 23, but about half have been for school; however, some of those I chose to read for a class assignment. :) Here’s what you do: 1) Look at the list and bold those you have read. 2) Italicize those you intend to read. 3) Underline the books you LOVE. (Or in my case turn them green.) 4) Reprint this list on your own blog. 1 Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen 2 The Lord of the Rings - JRR Tolkien 3 Jane Eyre - Charlotte Bronte 4 Harry Potter series - JK Rowling 5 To Kill a Mockingbird - Harper Lee 6 The Bible (um, how many people have actually sat down to read the Bible? Like, straight through? I'm counting it because I read at least a chapter every night.) 7 Wuthering Heights - Emily Bronte (I own it, but haven't read ...
