What else is there to do, when you're sick to your stomach?
Trap yourself in the house and watch movies, what else?! I've been thoroughly obsessed with watching Downton Abbey. For those of you who don't know what it is, it's a period piece show about England during WW1. It is fabulous! I'm a super nerd and I LOVE ANYTHING MASTERPIECE THEATER! It's amazing! I got hooked on the show last year, when their first season aired on PBS. I don't have regular cable, just super basic so I watch a lot of PBS. I discovered Masterpiece Theater stumbling upon it one random night. They had Jane Eyre playing and I was astonished at how closely the movie compared to the book. They had to air the movie in two separate weekends, but it was well worth the wait!

I enjoy reading very much. I like anything that is thought provoking whether it be more of reality or a story that compares to my life and gives me more understanding or meaning to it. Inspiring books are really great. I'm not you're typical mush girl. I HATE NICHOLAS SPARKS with a passion. Any man who writes sappy ass books like that and claims to be married with children---clearly is lying through his damn teeth. I think he's yes indeed GAY. There I said it! His novels are retarded and I hate them. BOOM! You know how they say don't judge a book by it's cover? I judge readers by their books! HAHA! Okay so fine, I am clearly not the coolest person in the world so why does my opinion matter?
"You should learn to forget what I say. I know I do."
Anyway, I'm not saying my taste in books are perfect--I just don't like reading mindless stories. For example, the older ladies I work with read smutty books. You know--the ones with Fabio all over the covers? YEAH THOSE. I ask them why they read them, and most of them say because they don't have to think. Um excuse me, but if I'm not mistaken isn't that the whole point of reading? For things to provoke thought and stimulate your brain cells? Secretly, I think they read these books because they're old and their sex lives have gone completely to shit. To their defense, my choice in books are probably not their cup of tea either. I was reading The Lovely Bones at work one day, and some old bitty came up to me and said I was a really sick person for reading it. Well fuck you very much too you old bitch! I had never met this lady before, I knew her familiar face because she worked in the department but she didn't know me from Adam. So being who I am, I started a fight. She came into the break room with her little fucking smutty ass pirate gypsy lover book and I went off like a rocket. So yeah I do judge readers by their books, and I've come to the conclusion old bitties that read smutty ass novels like that are just bitches because they've lose their swag and youth. TAKE THAT YOU CROTCHETY OLD HAG!
Some people probably think period pieces like Jane Austen novels or classic books are just as boring and no different from Nicholas Sparks. I guess whatever floats your boat right? I just really like reading and watching these series because they aren't mindless. And god knows I love me some Teen Mom drama, but it's nice to go back to your roots and realize you actually do have a brain. Sorry if I've offended anyone by poking fun at Nicholas Sparks but the dude is GAY all right?! No man like him exists, in all reality his WIFE probably writes all of his novels and slaps his name on it. And she probably writes all that smutty shit because it's how she wants him to treat her hahahahahhahahaha
LOL...I HATE Nichols Sparks, too!! Of course, down here, he's practically a god. He lives over on the coast and has started a school with his gazillions, so everyone thinks he's so awesome. UGH...and I agree: gayyyyy.
ReplyDeleteI want to watch Downton Abbey so bad! And OMG. I think it was Hien I ranted to about Nicholas Sparks. I can't even..... just google some of his interviews and read what he has to say. Very "enlightening" stuff.
