reeling from the junk ~

oh my heavens, i just overdosed watching the entire North and South miniseries.

it was every bit as bad as i thought it would be ~ and more ~ !

the first episode i was encouraged, thought it had some nice detail-work and interesting characters, but it just plunged after that into the depths of idiotic depravity (to say nothing of the amazingly absurd hairdos!) ~

i had never seen this before and had purposesly avoided it for years.

but as i am duty-bound to know the genre, i felt i had to get my boots dirty ~ and boy was i up to my shins in it tonight.

i'm not sure i can forge ahead with "book 2" ~ another six hours???

ugh ~ i think i'm gonna be ill.

and this after watching Episode III ~ ?

swayze and read at the Point
(which provided the only interest
in this overblown soap opera)

Thanks for the warning... I've had N&S nudged towards me several times, and I keep dodging. Sounds like maybe a good choice!

oh my word ~ i just finished book two ~ not only should you spare yourself the 12 hours of sheer misery of these two series, but keep them in mind if you ever need something to make you bust out laughing.

i was laughing so hard at the big "dramatic ending" that i almost fell off my chair ~ i haven't laughed that hard in years.

if it had got any stupider, i wouldn't have made it to the final credits, but thankfully i can say i lived to see the end.

wow.

i just never imagined anything could be that lame!
