As Much As I Could Stand

I watched as much of Black/White as I could stand last night.

I think it was maybe 7 minutes.

Let's just say that I didn't miss the quick-fire challenge on Top Chef.

I tried really hard, but when Carmen started talking at the--what was it, the talk-show style thing--I had to turn it off.

Okay, I have it tivoed.  I am going to stick with it.  Growth is bumpy, complicated, and not always pretty (I live with two four-year-olds who each grew almost an inch in the last month, I know this).  I read something on the show site blog (it's all flash so it's hard to link to, but it's in the blog entry for episode 2) that made me hopeful, for Carmen at least.  Though, wow, ever think of being quiet and listening?  Hmm? You might learn something.  Or at least not embarrass yourself so much.

Speaking of quiet, am I the only person still here?  Bueller?  Anyone?

Ack, sorry, I'm still here. I have notes on Episode 2 that I need to get into some sort of coherence. I taped Episode 3 to watch this weekend. I am such a bad blogger.

Carmen is enough to drive anyone crazy, but next to Bruno she's not half bad. At least she's trying to get something out of this experience. Bruno made up his mind before he got there and nothing's going to change it. Watch the episode....wait 'till you see what Bruno gets out of their visit to Leimert Park!

after your first post, i said i'd try and watch. i taped the replay of the first episode, and last 15 minutes.

i'm sorry. maybe it's because i haven't been tested by being the mother of twins (or a mother) but i can't. i just can't.

i'm sorry that i'm weak.

I'm back on board. Watch the episode, I think it's worth it.
