I like to watch ...

... Mad Men. I have to admit I did not understand what all the blah blah blah was about this show. Who cares, 60s ad men, male chauvinist pigs, whateves. Even with the whole Emmy buzz I was like blah. I tried watching the show when it first premiered on AMC and I could not get through it. Then last week I was chatting with my BFF Bayo about true blood and my Halloween custom and he said True blood is one of the best shows on TV besides Mad Men. Now, if you know Bayo, you know he never watches TV unless it is good. This is unlike me, I watch good TV but I also watch crap TV like "Real Chance of Love" and other VH1 shows. I have followed those shows since "Flavor of Love."
Anywhoos, so last Thursday, I downloaded the first season and started watching. I have to admit, the first eps. was kind of boring to me. It was all about smoking, blah. Then at the end of the esp. when Paggy makes her moves on Don, I thot wow!, then Don goes home and I find out he is married to a gorgeous woman and was obviously cheating on her. WOW!!! Then my sister called, she told me to keep watching it gets better. So I did. I finished all thirteen esp. by Sunday. I am on season 2 now and up to esp.6.
It is awful of me to love Don and understand that he cheats? I understand why he does it, I understand he loves his family. His children mean the world to him, yet he can smile at his child and feel bad he has lied to her her whole lie in one sitting and get up, tell his wife he has to go to the office, only to call another woman who he is planning to meet.
I LOVE Joan. She makes me feels so great about my body. I will never be stick thin, I have boobs, they are not going away. So when I see here and the way Roger Sterling looks at her, I know it's ok to have curves.
I do not really care for P&P. I could go on and on but I really love this show and happy Bayo finally turned me on to it.
Jon's mom forgot her cigarettes at our home the other day and while watching Mad Men I held on cig. between my fingers, Jon thought it was crazy! but could not stop laughing! :)

Away for a while
