Shows I am watching this fall...

So there are so many things to do everyday, and sometimes I get confused and forget when to watch what. Most of the time, I miss watching the show in the "correct" time slot. So I made this little list to help me out a bit.

Monday:
Gossip Girl (CW at 9): Worth watching just for what Blair says and wears
Greek (abc family at 9): A solid if not great show




Tuesday:
Nothing! I feel empty on this day.

Wednesday:
Glee (9 pm on FOX): 3 episodes in and going good so far

Thursday:
Vampire Diaries (8pm on CW): The show I actually look forward to more than I thought I would (especially now that True Blood is off the air). Also, I think that Stefan guy is totally hot.

Friday:
Another day of void.

Saturday:
More gloom. Ugh.

Sunday:
only.......the best night of TV.......ever

Mad Men (10pm on AMC): This show only keeps getting better and better. Don Draper for-ever. Though I must say I love the Joan and Peggy story lines too though.

(And of course True Blood and Entourage when they are playing in the summer).

Yay! New haircut





So this morning I woke up super early (7:00 am...egad) to get a haircut (appointment at 8am!)
And it turned out super-fab...I think. Got lots of compliments on it, which is always a plus. But it got me thinking, was I going about life with really horrible hair the past couple months? It sure is a scary thought. Also scary, seeing what my hair will look like without the professional blowout and globs of product thrown in there! But the hairstylist spent a good hour cutting it- so hopefully it will hold up, and I like what he's done in the past. How much do you guys spend on haircuts, and how often do you get them? (Personally I dropped $60--$50 list price with $10 tip for the owner of the salon who cut my hair, and I usually get my hair cut 2-3x/year). 
P.S.- The style I got was a long bob with long side bangs on right.

Gossip Girl Season 3 Premiere


So today was the premiere of Season 3 of Gossip Girl (GG). I tuned in at 8, only to find that they had changed the time to 9. Drat. But in the end that was probably a good thing because I actually got about a 1/2 hour of work done before tuning in at 9. First off, there were so many things weird about the episode. Like the fact that I couldn't really remember anything that happened last season. And also, sadly, that I failed to really care about what happened to any of the main characters, except for Chuck and Blair. I'm not sure why, but apart from the great clothes (minus Serena who in my humble opinion is just waaaay overdone) all the story lines were just too played out. I mean all the girl characters have already been with all the guy characters....TWICE. Hah. I think I'll give it another go next week, but sadly it has definitely lost that newness factor, something that happens even to the best of shows and I suppose it is hard for writers to keep thigns fresh by the 3rd season, especially for a show that has always relied on a lot of buzz and shock value.

New Shows I'm going to try out...

Glee Image: LA times
OK. So for once, I actually have a lot of time on my hands. And what do I do with it? Pick up more shows to watch of course! As the summer HBO shows are ending (True blood, Entourage, Hung), its time to pick up some new network shows to fill in the time. Two shows, that look interesting in premise at least so far are, Glee (Fox) and The Vampire Diaries (the CW). The Vampire Diaries seems like it may be a High School version of True Blood/Twilight. But lets see if it's any good. I'm more excited for Glee which is by the creator of Nip/Tuck (Ryan Murphy). Vampire Diaries is from the creator of Dawson's Creek.
