mindless and not so mindless.

finally got around to watching my recording of Reunion. i haven't seen anyone talking about it, but i enjoyed the ep. Chyler Leigh's Carla" really reminds me of Angela from MSCL. not because the characters are the same, but they just seem to have a lot of the same mannerisms and Claire and Chyler look a lot alike. weirder still was when Tom Irwin came onscreen as her dad.

it's definitely an interesting concept and i'll continue to tune in. The OC on the other hand? still yawning. i'm beginning to think Josh Schwartz used up all of his creative talent on the first season. please don't let Rob Thomas do the same! pleasepleaseplease!!!

anyone else see the commercial for the new Cingular phone that is ITunes enabled? they're using a song from season two of VM!! No Sleep Tonight by The Faders. love that song! i want to get up and dance every time i see the commercial.

speaking of VM, has anyone seen the season one wrap-up on UPN's website? it has to be the most random bunch of clips anyone has ever put together. it doesn't come anywhere close to giving new viewers a clue about what season one is about. seriously. go watch it. the complete ineptitude astounds me.

now for the not so mindless portion of this post. today is 9/11. i think i'm pretty much on an emotional overload because the remembrance type shows that i've watched today have not made me cry. this is definitely rare for me because just hearing things i associate with that day have the potential of making me cry. i'm definitely thinking of everyone who was directly or indirectly affected on this day. especially ladymyst and foxant10. i'm a better person for having you two in my life.

not the greatest birthday to have, but i know two people celebrating today.

Happy Birthday surreality_fan and serasempre's daughter!!!

(no subject)

for those who know ladymyst, you know that her cousin was aboard Flight 93. tonight on the discovery channel there is a documentary about the events that unfolded on that plane. they talk to some of the surviving family members and ladymyst's family is pretty heavily featured.

seeing her name and seeing her family recounting their last conversation with her was enough to end the numbness that had seemed to take over me. i ache for the families who lost someone that day. it was also very satisfying to see the reenactment of the passengers fighting back. they truly are heroes and deserve to have a memorial in their honor just as much as everyone who died at the WTC and the Pentagon. so please go to honorflight93.org to contribute what you can. the site is very slow right now. probably because of heavy traffic.

ladymyst, if you're out there reading, i miss you and i hope you're well. *smoooooooch*
