I don't know how many people I kept trying to make watch Heroes, but it came back this week and I haven't even watched it yet. I'm not all that excited about it. I'm excited that Kristen Bell is getting work beyond her Gossip Girl narrating and that Francis Capra (Weevil, Rach.)is getting work too. I miss Veronica Mars. Apparently I did not convince enough people that that show was totally awesome in time. That show had the single coolest first season ever. You do not understand unless you watched it. Anyway, Heroes is back (and also had a pretty cool first season) and is not receiving accolades. In fact, everything I've read thus far has been far less than complimentary. I think I will watch the season premiere and if it does suck like last season, I will take it off my series recordings list. There is so much crap sitting on my DVR and I just keep not watching any of it because I'm still reading a book a day. That cuts into my non-essential TV watching time. So far this week I've only watched Gossip Girl and How I Met Your Mother. I guess tonight will be House and America's Next Top Model. The only show I watched this weekend was The Secret Life of the American Teenager. I had a huge chunk of the marathon left to watch, so I got some of that done. It's kind of funny, and kind of sweet, and the kid who is not Molly Ringwald's daughter's babydaddy, but is her boyfriend, is so Randall Batinkoff-lite(Molly Ringwald's babydaddy from For Keeps). Some of the acting is truly terrible, as is some of the writing, but you kind of have to love a show that has a fifteen year old kid indignantly telling the guidance counselor, "They're talking about my woman!" Heh.

I totally miss Veronica Mars too. I think Dave got into it as well. I haven't watched Heroes before. Mostly because I hate that Hayden that's a girl. And I am fairly certain Dave called me "his woman" when he was 16.

He may well have...I remember him asking me if I thought you liked him(I hadn't even met you at that point) and if he should ask you out. He was so excited-it was very cute.

He's still cute! But he was very cute back in the day. I've always had a soft spot in my heart for guys who are a little awkward. Which Dave was then. Not so much now.
