Right now, I'm into NBC's Life, ABC's Pushing Daisies, Cheetos Puffs, and Colleen McCullough's Masters of Rome series.

What about the rest of y'all?

Sleeping

---me too!!


Hmmm......I'd have to say my cross-stitching, Middleswarth BBQ chips, most any book I can get my hands on, Discovery ID, Bill Kurtis, and canning (guess I'm a domestic goddess, too!! lol)

Writing, as always, and CI, of course. VDO, definitely. And reading. I also love snakes (we have four) and I am just getting into a brand new hobby which I find entirely fascinating: tarantulas. We have five of them and I absolutely love 'em. We are going to try our hand at raising spiderlings next. One good thing that has come from them: Katie no longer abandons her bedroom when she sees a spider on the ceiling. She has come to an uneasy truce with spiders. Now, this is the same child who, at the age of four, I found in the backyard of our Colorado home playing with a black widow. I nearly had a heart attack. But tarantulas, though big and hairy, are mostly harmless.

I just discovered that show "House". I've never seen an episode until it came on USA. So that's what I'm really into right now. He's just so mean! Oh, and of course watching L&O: CI.

House has been good, anyone see the other night, So said Cutty didn't get the baby, but wow she and House had a great Kiss.

Also watching Dirty Sexy Money, Love that guy that had played on CI as the photographer he plays an ex priest on this show.


Also Like the new show Fringe. And TNT Raising the Bar is pretty good, you get to see the LAW, part of the criminal justice system. Still watching Bones, CSI original, Grey's Antomy, ER since Carver is suppose to make an appearance, since his wife is on there, now. Some I have to tape and watch later. Criminal Minds, NCIS, those are mostly the can't miss. Will have to add law and order the orginal. Oh and I watch SVU which hasn't impressed me much lately. Comedies, How I met your mother, Christine, The Big Bang, TWo and a half men, Till Death ( that one is too much like my marriage, lol.) I liked Flashpoint don't know what happened to it. Maybe it was a summer program? I also like Amazing Race and been watching Survivor.

Oh and when its the new season, Monk, psych, and closer.

I like House, but I don't like that they replaced all of CI's reruns with House reruns.

Lately I have been busy scanning old family photos on to my computer and myspace, reading the 40!!!! books my niece gave me, playing secretary for hubby. The only tv shows I have been making an effort to watch is Mad Men and The Mentalist(Simon Baker-whew what a smile!!!!!) oh and of course Patriots football.

Ain't that the truth!
And the little mole on VDO's cheek. Sigh. Perfect spot for a free, much needed, mental vacation.

Well here is what I am NOT into until the new LOCI episodes begin, thanks to USA's disregard for their fans.

Starter Wife
Burn Notice
In Plain Sight
Monk
Psych
SVU (reruns)
NCIS (reruns)
JAG
House

I think that's all. Oh, and of course the movies they show over the weekend.

What am I into?? Well, right now, I love Fringe, House which I just started watching, The Mentalist, Private Practice, SVU, Smallville and 90210. I watch Pushing Daisies and Samantha Who but I am not really into them like the others. Now when January comes, I am really stoked to see Medium and Kyle XY.

The only new show I'm definitely hooked on is The Mentalist. Sooo much better follow up to NCIS than The Unit was. I'm still watching My Own Worst Enemy and True Blood, but I'm not sure if they will keep my interest or not. On MOWE, I'm getting tired of Henry's angst. I get it, but it's kind boring to watch. I love the Edward parts. On True Blood, I like the world they've created and the main vampire is dreamy, but Anna Paquin is annoying me a little and there is a lot of very graphic, very unappealing sex. I'm not a prude, but... yuck. Oh ya, and I'm kind of liking Raising the Bar. Not super special, but worth catching for the most part.

My "new to me" picks for this year are How I Met Your Mother (Neil Patrick Harris steals every scene he's in) and The Big Bang Theory, both on Monday night. Anyone who's ever spent time around any university's science departments has got to be howling at that one.

Returning favs for me (other than LOCI, obviously) are NCIS, Burn Notice (when are we getting new eppys of that?) Dexter (now with Jimmy Smits!) Entourage (guilty pleasure), and Lipstick Jungle (mostly for the clothes). The Saving Grace season was much too short, Holly Hunter is fierce in that role. I'm kinda looking forward to the new L&O mothership episodes coming out. I havn't warmed to the new detectives yet, but I really like watching Jack and the new guy wrestle with each other.

I really like the Mystery Case Files computer games. I'm waiting for the new one to come out. If you haven't heard of them, it's basically a hidden object game and it has puzzles too. Give them a try. I would start with the Ravenhearst game.

http://www.mysterycasefiles.com/

You can download them and try it for free for one hour. It's pretty addicting.

Fringe, Primeval, The Mentalist and the Eleventh Hour are my new favorites. I pretty much watch every law/cop/mystery show offered (including The Shield and Dexter) so I rarely veer out of these genres but Dirty Sexy Money is a guilty pleasure.

Scout stuff, LOCI message boards, writing my fan fic, keeping up with the kids, getting ready for Halloween madness and the annual neighborhood invasion of half the kids in town (!!!!, but fun), crossword puzzles, NCIS, BONES, LOCI, Numb3rs, FOOTBALL (college and pro), CSI:NY, reading, church activities.......*whew* I'm tired from just listing everything. I think I'll go take a nap now! lol

Oh ya... and Tim Gunn. I LOVE Tim Gunn. Is there anyone who doesn't? (Don't answer that)

hmmmmm, ok I won't but who is Tim Gunn? lol I know but not into project runway or those fashionshow types.

Hi,

Well right now I'm (or have been) into

Bobby Goren
Toby Keith.

And screen name Tobo, love your pics, what a good choice of pics., for your post
What good taste.

Hehe. I like Project Runway once in a while; it's fun to see a reality show where they are actually making something. I like Design Star for the same reason.

But there are so many reasons to love Tim Gunn. He was a professor at Parson's for something like 20 years, so he's not just some "TV personality". He really knows his business. Then on top of that, he's just so genuine and funny and classy. His show, Tim Gunn's Guide to Style, is a similar thing to What Not To Wear, but instead of mocking the women, he teachs and explains why this and not that and never stoops to the cheap shot for a laugh. The more I see of his personality, the more I wish I knew him.

Also, as my sister has felt the need to point out, I seem to be attracted to gay men. Not in the "I want to date him" sort of way, but in the "I want to go to dinner, go out for drinks, go shopping, go to a show, sit around and watch old movies with a bottle of wine with him" sort of way. According to her, Vincent is the only straight man I'm attracted to and then only because he kisses men in movies. I think she's full of it (she's my little sister... you know how they are) but my current obsessions with Neil Patrick Harris and Tim Gunn (and those lovely years of adoration for all five of the Queer Eye guys) would seem to suggest that she might have the teensiest of points. Nobody tell her... okay?

Yeah, forgot, I am way into True Blood and Californication. I love them. Great shows. Thanks to pfchristine for reminding me about True Blood. I would have forgotten otherwise.

23 hours and 55 minutes of the day.............KATHRYN ERBE/ALEXANDRA EAMES/MAGGIE.....

Other 5 minutes.....NCIS, CSI, hockey

(It isn't 24/7 KATHRYN as she deserves a break from me everyday to have time for herself....)

TV wise: Burn Notice (first season began airing here 4 weeks ago and i love it), Bones, Grey's, Cold Case, Medium and i think i'm going to like 'Life' which just started its run here...though Charlie Crews is a tad too much like Goren in parts regarding the 'quirkiness'.

I like to write but my muse has deserted me for now, really fond of wordsearches (i get lost in them for hours) and love my laptop too. My books also, i'm not reading anything in particular, just dipping into different ones here and there.

*SQUEE* Brian! Brian is both one of the most hilarious and "real" characters on that series. Glenn Fitzgerald certainly plays brooding losers well, and find a way to make them loveable in their own way (When he was playing the amateur artist, I at least had sympathy for him...>_>). The way he interacts with Brian Jr. is so interesting and adorable too.

Besides the Dirty Sexy, the newer shows I'm into are Life, because Charlie Crews is such an interesting ball of contradictions.

Music-wise I'm super into Lady Gaga, who takes pop club music and gives it a bit of an edge. And she sounds like Queen, so that instantly wins my heart.

Book-wise I'm waaaay too busy at work to think about reading. Yay 50+ hour weeks!

Folding laundry.

I used to like Californication, I love Dexter, geez I find myself attracted to a serial killer, but he is a good serial killer. lol? Oh well about Californication, seems like it's becoming more of a porn show, more sex less plot. No wonder David Duchovny was in sex rehab, so sad he and his wife broke up.Wonder how making that show helps his sex addiction.?

anyone WAtch Grey's , I can't believe the news, First they fire for Gay slures then they wipe out all the gay characters what gives?


Grey's DeGayed

It seems to me that for all of the efforts to portray gay characters and gay relationships "realistically", the television industry has done more damage to the argument "they are born that way" than all the marching evangelicals in the country. I can't keep track of the shows where I have seen a character "discover" he or she is gay, only to discover a season or two later "oops, nope, I guess I'm not". If I were to rely on TV for education I would be wondering if any day now I'm gay--well, for today since it seems to come and go at random.

Oh and I stopped watching Grey's when George cheated on Callie with Izzy. Isn't there a decent marriage somewhere to be found on TV?

If you haven't done so already,

GO VOTE!!!!!

If you have, thank you!

someone is getting close to 10,000! woohoooo, I voted my family is 5-1 Obama, wondering if I should kick my son out? lol.

Uhhhh, lets see. Trying to make a muslin mockup of a really elaborate dress for a doll without losing my marbles doing so Other then that I'm into anime/manga currently reading Hellsing Vol. 9, trying to find a job and of course LOCI

I could say, I am into a size 20, that is from a size 32!

Kingdom Hearts(just bought the second one)
Barlow Girls.
Fall for you - Second Hand Senerade. (Somebody should make a b/a shippy vid with that.)

My favorite aunt got me hooked on Ravenhearst, she did the same for hubby and #1 Son! Did you ever try the other ones? Hubby likes the one based on the Civil War, and we have Spril--the one about the Bermuda Triangle. Great games, really sharpens your observation skills IMO.




To me (and it's JMO), Tim Gunn is a class act---even when he gets upset with some of the contestants (remember Kayne and the b&w dress Kayne screwed up?) he kept his cool.
My payment for not telling your sister she's right---Cheerwine!



::clapping:: way to go, Jryan!!!


One thing I'm into right now is the Numbrix puzzle by Marilyn vos Savant. It's the 1st thing I do when I read USA Weekend.....challenging but I'm able to solve it each week.
#1 Son can do Sudoku, he's v.g. at that (to quote a bit of Bridget Jones, lol)

Things I am into:

-Watching the numbers on the scale go down rather than up
-Creating rationales for lessons that administrators have no idea about when they enter my room (controlled chaos and project based learning)
-Goofing off and not writing the lessons that administrators... (you get the idea)
-Planning for #1 son's first round of college visits
-Using design, architecture, and engineering to teach mathematics to sixth, seventh, and eighth
-Using my gym membership for good rather than a cosmic paperweight

And finally, I am into Frank Lloyd Wright and Taliesen and MC Escher. (I just love the use of space, dimension, and visual manipulation.)

There are a lot of hidden object games out there but I am mainly into the Mystery Case Files games (the ones on that website). I find those the most challenging. Some other ones I've played are a little too easy for me so I just stick with those. They are all a lot of fun though.....I think I may have played the Bermuda Triangle one once.

I agree...he's very classy. I have never watched "Project Runway" (I'm not really into the reality shows), but I love his new style show. As a result, one thing I've gotten into lately is a bit of...well...retail therapy. Gee...that seems rather shallow now that I've written it down.

I'm also new to fan fiction, so I've been catching up on all the great LOCI stories here and at the fanfic site. Also, it's that time of year, so I'm getting ready to get my ice skate blades sharpened and hit the ice (sometimes harder than I would like...I'll be a bit rusty!). My four, 3-4 year old nieces and nephews are begging me to take them skating already. They are so cute!

Enjoy getting ready for the holidays, everyone!

I can think of one! Marshall and Lily on How I Met Your Mother.




Woo Hoo! Go Jryan!!!!! Hey, you could fit into my skinny jeans now! (But you can't have 'em because I'm gonna get there eventually!!!




Hey... I think I owe you some Cheerwine!

I'm going to have to check out How I Met Your Mother. I'm not sure why I've never seen it--I love Neil Patrick Harris. I'll have to look for it.

One of the best all-time TV marriages I've ever seen is Lynette and Tom on Desperate Housewives (don't judge ). They are the reason I watch the show. They look like a real couple, their kids look like real kids, their house is chaotic like a real home, they fight like a real couple, they make up like a real couple, and they are completely and totally in love with each other. Sigh.....

Okay... one more thing I'm into now... well... one more person. Rachel Maddow. Have you seen her on MSNBC? I just love her attitude and the sense of fun she brings to everything. I'm not usually a big MSNBC fan, but I kept seeing her when they were covering the conventions and the election, so I watched her show. It airs weeknights at 9 and 11 and is definitely worth catching.

Let's make it work....Ok I'll say it. I love the guy, not sure why. Carry on....
Also it's Football season, LOVE FOOTBALL, especially the Jets and the Colts.

my biggest fear is they end that series and I don't find out who "Mother " is, lol.

ok was liking fringe but this weeks episode might have killed it for me, When the guy looked like "little shop of horrors in his chest" way too much. Kept wanting to say Feed me Semore!

I loveTim Gunn and Project Runway which is rather weird in a way because I am about as far from a fashionista as you can get. Jeans, sneakers, T or Turtleneck (to hid my double chin) depending on the weather. I don't watch much reality TV either. TG is classy, genuine, compassionate, clever and that VOICE-gotta love it. Plus, the drama of the competion and the diverse personalities of the contestants. I'm not very good at explaining myself or anything else but I just love that show. And sometimes you end up rooting for and adoring someone you found annoying at the beginning of the competition ::cough::Christian from last season::cough:: and annoyed with the ones you liked at the beginning.
Ooops time for Pats' football gotta run....
Project Runway and football-what a Renaissance woman I am....NOT

i hope this isn't devistating to anyone, Lipstick Jungle and My own worst enemy are canceled.

Never saw lipstick jungle. I wanted to like My Own Worst Enemy. The premise was interesting. It just didn't hold my attention. the coolst part for me was seeing Mike O"Malley playing a serious role and not comedy. At first I wasn't even sure if it was him or not.
Anyone watch "Ghost whisperer" w/ Jennifer Love Hewitt? Nice mindless entertainment until

I couldn't even watch it last night. It was too sad.

Right now I'm into reading and writing LOCI fanfic. I posted another chapter of my story, It Always Comes Back, over on the fanfic thread late last night. Please read and review.....thanks!

No never watched it, but commericals seem to show that his ghost will still be around.

... im so into the shows life and cold case rite now..
and nancy drew computer games. gawd, theyre so much fun

No... not devastated. But they'd better get Victory and Joe together before they end Lipstick Jungle. Their story was the only interesting storyline on that show. Just fade out on the two of them in a lip lock... and we're all good.

I'm with hullbound... I wanted to like My Own Worst Enemy, but was never able to really get into it. I thought Mike was very good in it though. I hope we'll see him in something a little more successful soon.

Well, I guess when you are a ghost whisperer, you have to expect that your dead husband will hang around.




I never watched Lipstick Jungle. Like others, I wanted to like My Own Worst Enemy but just never "bonded" with it.

I have a bad feeling about one of my favorite shows, though. I think NBC is trying to kill Life. They keep moving it around so I never know when it's on. I missed on episode because it had been on Friday nights then suddenly it was on Wednesday just before Law and Order. I didn't realize it until I tuned in for L&O. So now it's on opposite Criminal Minds. The way NBC is treating it tells me they want to kill it for some reason.

I just have to tell about this one scene (although seeing it is SO much better). The two detectives arrive at a crime scene at a drug research company and find a researcher frozen solid, holding an oxygen mask to his face. Seems he would use oxygen when he was working long hours to give him energy. But someone replaced his oxygen with liquid nitrogen and he froze when he inhaled it. Very freaky looking. While his partner is talking to the owner of the research company (played by the creepy veterinarian from Zoonotic), Crews is looking over this frozen man. He takes his pen out and very gently touches it to the guy's cheek. And he cracks and shatters into millions of pieces! The look on Crews' face is priceless. His partner looks at him and says, "Do you have to touch everything?" I thought that was truly a Goren/Eames moment! Later, back in the squad room his captain tells him, "CSU had to bag every piece separately. You might want to send them something." Have I mentioned that I love this show?
