Not as distracting as he was shirtless.

Hee! I think the shirtlessness is a good distraction from the long face.

Sophia, I have been watching b/c it was shot in a town about an hour away from me, where my friends live. {(IT has nwo moved to another town, because local businesses complain that the shoots taking up the streets were losing them business.) I think the acting is pretty terrible, especially the female lead.

I actually can't tell if the female lead is terrible, or brilliant at having absolutely no affect. I am watching for 3 reasons 1) I am fascinated by Eric Balfour's face 2) the old men who play the newspaper reporters are adorable and 3) I am trying to figure out if the chief of police is the guy from DaVinci's inquest.

Also, I cannot imagine being organized enough to make a list. I can barely pack, and still by the end I am either throwing random things out or packing them in garbage bags. And I still have about 20 unpacked boxes on my back porch from when I moved into this apartment 5 years ago.

Megan, speaking of your organizing prowess, when you come visit (note the "when," not "if"), I am in need of your services. Again. I will bribe you with tasty dinners and desserts and alcoholic beverages.

Sophia, throw those things away.

Yes, Nicholas Campbell played Dominic Da Vinci.

They are all books. Last summer I bought bookcases and unpacked about 5 boxes. This summer I will probably unpack the rest on my vacation.

I have about .000001% of your energy, msbelle.

Sophia, that is the dude from DaVinci. I have only seen parts of two episodes, so I haven't seen the reporters yet.

Sophia, throw those things away.

This.

If you have things you love so much that you can't bear to part with them, display them where you can see and enjoy them. Otherwise, give or throw them away.

Hmmm, you make a compelling argument.

Whew! I got to the end of the thread and you are being all organizey. I am lolling around in bed wondering how long I can practically work the travel hangover angle. Not this long, I suspect. I am discombobulated because we are effectively flooded in. We didn`t make it to church this morning and instead made an emergency grocery run. I`m supposed to register the sweet new ride tomorrow and the SO teaches, but I am unconvinced either of those things are going to happen.
 
I did make peanut butter cookies and went on a long ramble with the dog, so it`s a win for the day despite the rain induced lazy.
 
I did make spreadsheets for the move, to go with my color coded six digit labels. But that didn`t stop me from having boxes of detritus that should never have been moved. I just knew which boxes they were.
