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 ~ ?

: o p



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

Hey, have you ever watched that really old movie, "The Santa Fe Trail", with Ronald Regan? About the Civil War? I watched it a few weeks ago, and I dunno...I didn't really like it...it was kinda funky to me...*^^*;; So I was wondering, if you don't have it, if I could send it to you. XD I mean, you're really really into the Civil War times, soo...I was just thinking. *^^*

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

Maybe I shouldn't mention that I love N&S... Oh well. I grew up watching it, and reading the books in middle school... so you know. I do have to say Book III is completely worthless. Completely laughable. The only reason I made it through 2 episodes is because of James Read. I still haven't finished watching book III.
