Nicola: Sorry for the long silence from me - my internet snapped (never get mobile broadband it is pointless and stupid and never works) so I have been stranded in a world without blogs or Facebook. I've actually had to talk to people face-to-face, it's been very unnerving. The saddest thing is absolutely nothing has happened for me to talk about even though I haven't said anything in ages!
So far my Easter break has consisted of eating my weight in chocolate (one of life's great mysteries: why is Easter egg chocolate so much nicer than the normal kind?) and pizza, reading Cosmopolitan, watching TV, writing my novel and defending my ridiculously friendly Labrador against smaller, scarier dogs. Then I looked at the calendar and panicked because I realised I have done no work for the mini-dissertation I have to hand in in a month. So the obvious answer was to come online to blog and mess around on Facebook for an hour.
On the plus side, my novel is on 42,000 words, so I'm finally over the halfway mark, and I bought a new laptop because mine officially broke.
Just to fill in some space, here's a review of the TV I've been saturating my brain with. Britain's Got Talent is back: yey! My favourite bit is, of course, Ant and Dec - they should have an act, they would win by a landslide. I loved the kid who sang Michael Jackson on Saturday though, but I felt bad for him when Simon stopped him singing Valerie - I thought that was really good, Simon Cowell must have been told the kid had a better song prepared. Also Gok Wan is back with Gok's Fashion Fix, and it's much better than his previous show (I can't even remember what it was called, I stopped watching it even though I love Gok more than life itself), and he has managed to redeem himself slightly, although he has enough for five different shows in there.
Gossip Girl is getting exciting again, but I wish Dan and Serena would just get together already, and Blair and Chuck, and Lily and Rufus... there is a lot of the we-love-each-other-desperately-but-it-would-never-work going about on the Upper East Side. I read in a magazine that somebody dies, so every time anything bad happens I can't breathe because I think this is going to be it. I think it'll happen tomorrow with the whole limo thing. I still want to be Blake Lively though, she has the best hair ever.
However, I'm really starting to get sick of the storyline on Desperate Housewives. We already know everything - what is the point??? They're just dragging it out, what happened to all the tension-building and twists and turns of the earlier series? I always used to get it wrong, but I've known for weeks now exactly what's happening. I watch it on E4 on Sundays because I'm sad like that, and I'm starting to get a bit bored of the whole Dave-Mike thing. If Mike dies I will stop watching, he is by far the best Househusband. And I hate Orson!!!! I won't ruin it for you if you watch on Wednesdays, but you will hate him too.
So goodbye for now, I'm off to weep over my mini-dissertation and find something interesting to do so that I can blog about it!
