if i'm not mistaken, today is national lack of focus day. and in honor of the holiday, short attention span theater brings you the following:
they just put in a new five guys in ashburn. it seemed like a perfectly delectable dinner choice on my way home last night, but apparently that was true for every resident in ashburn as well. it took me 15 minutes in line and another 10 to get my burger, and there was no dilly dallying to be found. ashburn hearts five guys.
i admit it. i am still mourning the loss of the west wing. but with sorkin's return, last night's premier episode of studio 60 has temporarily eased my grief. i'm sure there will be mixed reviews of the much hyped new series, but as for me, thank heavens intelligent tv is back. that's not to say that i require intelligence in my tv programming--i do love reality tv after all--but it is noticed and appreciated. in addition, despite my affinity for a few of the cast members (bradley whitford, steven weber, and timothy busfield), i was skeptical of how the ensemble would work. and i don't know how it did, but it did. this show has managed to do what many attempt and most fail at--hooking me in episode 1.
it's official. i will be spending thanksgiving in london. today i used lara's birthday gift to purchase a couple of old friends--the rick steves and lonely planet guides to london. oh how i have missed you.

I am VERY excited for Studio 60. I love pretty much every cast member, and can't wait to see Matthew Perry and Bradley Whitford opposite Amanda Peet. This show has so much potential to be my favorite show ever that I'm literally giddy in anticipation!
well the reviews aren't as mixed as i thought they would be. everyone i've talked to who saw it, loved it!
