The Tudors

I want to recommend to every girl out there, PLEASE check out the Tudors. It's a Showtime show, but if you don't have Showtime the first season is out on DVD. I have been watching it on & off, but finally sat down with the first season & have been emersing myself in it one disc at a time. 3 - 1 hour episodes of pure yumminess!!! Jonathan Rhys Meyer is so delicious as Henry the VIII. Also - if you have a significant other they will enjoy the multiple breast shots in the show. There is a lot of sex, deceit & history to all of it. I think I have learned more from that show then I learned from high school history classes. One other good thing about the show is that there are 6 wives to cover & multiple infidelities so this show will hopefully have legs...

The Tudors is my 2nd favorite reason for having Showtime - first still and always being Dexter - same thing, if you haven't seen it start watching it cause it really is quite amazing.

This is just like when I had a diary...

I start out nice & strong every time & then I get to doing things and boom - 2 months go by without saying a word. Then again with my best friend Becca getting married on June 7th I guess that I can get a pass for a few weeks. Then I thought about signing in at home one night when I realized that I didn't have the address for the site. Brilliant honestly. So I think instead I played on pogo.com & watched a movie. Oh wait - I also started a new part-time job waiting tables at Not Your Average Joe's - so 3 LONG weeks of training for that & back to 7 days a week of solid work. Thank God it's only weekends there - so I at least get to keep my Mon-Fri nights to myself.

I guess I will also share that I am quitting smoking along with the girls. So far, so good. Though in order to quit most of us are relying on meds. I ended up on Wellbutrin (cause Zyban - the exact same chemical makeup in the drug - isn't covered by my insurance) and so you know it's an anti-depressant. Of course I am probably one of the happiest people I know to begin with so I swear that I have almost been a bit more mellowed out on this now. But I am only on them for a month or so (if that, I am only taking 1/2 a pill daily cause I hate to be on something at all) so hopefully this will be a quick month. Hey maybe to fill in some of that time I used to spend smoking I will write things on here... Hey - stranger things have happened...
