Subject: OT: Valentines Day plans and The L Word

Well, since board messaging has been kinda s - l - o - w lately, I thought I'd ask two questions,

1. Whatcha doing for Valentines Day? (Especially you mid-westerners who may never get out of the snow!)

2. Anyone watching The L Word?

As in - I have no Valentine and I have no cable

boo-hoo...sniff

[Edit]




[> Oh AF -- Angie, 20:58:05 02/05/04 Thu

I'm sorry.... :-(

I won't be Valentine'ing' until the 17th - work and graduate school is interfering....

As for The L Word - my my my! You need a friend who'll send you a video or two.... :-)

My 'ex' is still is town. She postponed her trip home by...oh...six weeks? We're planning on spending a quiet night at home.

: )

I'm losing my touch. I should have said everyone at S J/7 is my Valentine. *sigh* I've lost the ability to flirt.

I'm better off without a Valentine. Look at Kats, she'll probably need more back surgery in the spring. ;-)

Valentines Day?....Nope, don't have one :(

L Word?...Yes, I have cable. :) and the nice person that I am has mailed a tape of the first 3 episodes to a cable-less friend who lives in another state. Would you like me to send you the tape after it gets sent back to me, AF?

[Edit]




[> logical - one L of a gal :0) -- AF, 01:19:59 02/07/04 Sat


No surprise that Lurker logical would surface at the mention of The L Word - L is a popular letter

In the old alphabet the L Word is liberal *g*

Thanks for the offer of the tape (Ha! - if you ever get it back)

Even though I know it's on cable, hey if it wasn't I'd know what it is - well what is it - the show, I mean. Plotline anyone? Don't send me to another website - tell me, if you please.

[> plotlines and plotholes -- Angie, 19:29:23 02/09/04 Mon

Well, the story centers around a couple Bette/Tina who are trying to get pregnant. They are sort of the glue people who hold together a menagerie of friends. There's the bi - Alice - a journalist with an interesting mother and a rather crappy ex-girlfriend. Then there's the closeted one - Dana - a wanna be higher ranked tennis player who has just found 'like' with a chef. (She's been funny - she's only had 2 girlfriends her whole life - and neither lasted very long. She's kinda inept at the whole dating thing.) Then there's Shane - the love 'em and leave 'em sort who just oozes sex. And finally, Marina who owns a little cafe where the whole gang hangs out.

On the periphery (sorta) are Tim and his fiancée Jenni - who Marina finds very attractive. She seduces Jenni and Jenni, who has no idea what she's gotten herself into, denies the attraction, but not for long. Then there's Bette's sister - Kitt? - who is supposed to be in AA but whom we've seen drinking on several occasions and just found out has a son she hasn't seen in years.

Each episode has gotten the plotholes plugged up - because after the first episode, I had a lot of questions. I also think each episode has gotten better and better. I'm fascinated with Jenni and Marina just because I can't wait to see what happens next. (What's the quote, "No good can come of this?" :-)

Mostly we're 'the fly on the wall' in all these people's lives. Tina quits a very good job to concentrate on getting pregnant. Bette is a type A personality who's got a demanding job and family. Jenni can't write because she's daydreaming about being with Marina. Alice is frustrated with her mother and her ex-girlfriend. Shane was being stalked by a one night stand. Dana just had her first female ejaculation and was ashamed and embarrassed by it. Tim is starting to believe he can't trust Marina.

email me AF - because I could go on and on and on and not get your questions answered.

Re the "L-Word," boy, oh boy. Well, I waited a long time for it (since reading the original spec script a looonnnggg time ago) AND even re-activated our Showtime for it. I really enjoyed the first two episodes, but it seems to have gotten worse, not better. The writing and directing both fall short, unfortunately. BUT, hey, I'm a believer and it's not everywhere you get to see attractive lesbians on tv, so I'll keep watching. I think my partner got too bored during the last show so she probably won't be watching anymore. I really hope it improves because there's so much to explore. And at least they've renewed already for a second season...hopefully a good sign.

[> Okay, thank you Angie & JenS for the report -- AF, 01:07:53 02/13/04 Fri


Though after hearing about all the storylines and women I despair of logical *ever* having those tapes returned to her. ;0)

Today 2/12 the L is for Lincoln
Have a nice Friday the 13th
A Lovely Valentine's Day (hey, for $2.99 Hersheys will supply a bag full of Kisses)
Have a Patriotic Presidents Day
Happy Washington & Jeri Ryan B-Day
And have a jumpin' great Leap Day

Well, that takes care of February
