Oct. 18th, 2005 10:39 pmSo, I've discovered the key to enjoying Bones: bourbon.
I went out for drinks and fatty appetizers, and had not one, not two, but *three* bourbon-and-gingerales, and you know? I am liking this re-run of Bones a lot more than the first time I saw it.
Of course, I'm also really liking the fact that, in the absence of major-league baseball, I will see House tonight. And this is probably a good time to burble drunkenly about Ultimate Fighter, and Medium, but I won't bore y'all now.
I *will* say that, as happy as I am to see promos for a new Bones, I am very dubious about the sheer quantity of eyeliner what's-her-name is wearing in said promos. If you're going to have a character who seems to be oblivious to interpersonal whatever, then, you know, make her be oblivious! Don't have her wearing more kohl than Cleopatra.
Heh! But DC bus schedules *are* totally confusing! I'll give them some points for local accuracy there.
I'll also ramble a bit about my neighborhood: I live in a neighborhood that is gentrifying (not a term I generally favor, but it's the most widely recognized word for this particular socioeconomic turn of events). I recently signed on to an e-mail list for the neighborhood, and it is a big ol' bunch of, excuse the phrase, ( whiny-ass white folks. ) (To be fair, it's an e-mail list, and unless posters identify their ethnic identity, I can only guess at it, and there have certainly been non-whiners who identified themselves as white, and at least one African-American who whined.)
