Confession. I LOVE True Blood. I la-la-la Love it. It is sooooo good. I don't even recall how I first got turned onto it but I know that it must have been one of the first two episodes that caught my attention because I remember last fall anxiously awaiting every Monday night for the moment when Dorcas had had enough time to download a good version of it for me to watch on my computer. The season was criminally short and ended with the biggest WTF!?! I have experienced from a tv show in recent memory ... although LOST was pretty decent in the what-the-hell-is-going-on-here-i-don't-believe-in-anything-anymore-please-stop-messing-with-my-brain-box department. Thankfully, I guess to keep the good ratings rolling with all the vampire hype, True Blood's second season begins this Sunday! Waiting for months after the super short season (omg I swear I'm not even trying for the alliterations anymore - ah - it's just happening!) is the second biggest trial of will right after composing myself and not cringing everytime Anna Paquin speaks with her ill conceived Louisiana accent. Maybe that IS how she would sound if she were a native Louisianian, but I don't like it, I don't like it one bit. What I do like is the faux poster, courtesy of Barney Stinson (best character EVER) that reads: CONFORMITY. It's the one who is different that gets left out in the cold". This was an obvious choice for the subject matter of this post: if you're one of the few who has yet to succumb to some form of vampiric entertainment ... well let's just say you are starting to stick out - and not in a good way. I know I know - I hate Twilight too but calm down, pull out an old Anne Rice novel or pop in your VHS of Interview with Vampire and get cozy because I'm pretty sure the frenzy won't die down at least until all the twilight ridiculousness is o-vah.

HEYYY
it's catalina again! Just checking in to see if you gave my tim hortons "get rich quick" scheme another thought.
i'm quite serious, there are LOTS of young vulnerable elitists in oakville......
gotta get back to cleaning, and stealing some good ol' nabob coffee
Nabob? I thought you liked the specialty stuff from Cooke's? And in response to your offer, I'll have to yet again decline, though I am sure you will make a killing.
Well not everyone can afford specialty coffee, i guess the recession is hitting the family I'm cleaning for.
i see you like true blood, in carcas we have a similar show its a telemundo drama called La sangre verdadera es la sangre de un cerdo
i say we start a business venture where my cousin (horatio jesus garcia) ships dvds (PRIME quality)!! and we sell them here, preferably on the street from a box, its easiest that way.
i heard from the grapevine that you have a bike, that would be an asset to our business.
mucho amor
catalina (like the island)
Okay so I was looking at your blog after you posted on mine and I just have to say that I LOVE LOVE LOVE True Blood too. I didn't notice any mention of the Sookie Stackhouse novels by Charlain Harris that inspired the show. If you have not yet read these, you must. They're amazing and they will keep the withdrawl symptoms away while you're waiting for new episodes.
Thanks for the advice, I'll definitely have to look into them.
