Health and 90210

So feeling better again - but it is late so tonight's not going to be a long one. And that's fine too as there isn't a whole lot new on my little end of the world. We're still waiting on a certain important phonecall ... work's going basically smoothly, meet the teacher night is Thursday and that should be awright ... the weekend was OK except for being ill ... I HATE the new Facebook ... lol ... still going to ballroom dancing, still watching wrestling, glad my mom will be home from Montreal this weekend ... miss her ... but after what I just spent my last hour doing I keep meaning to ask, and share -

Anyone checked out the new 90210 yet? Anyone checked out more than the pilot? I'm enjoying it. I know from the POV of a 'drama expert' that it's hardly high art - I've seen better TV, movies, theatre, whatever. But it's a great 'guilty pleasure' kind of program, and they do a very good job of keeping enough interest around the veteran characters (Kelly and Brenda, the tie-in with the original cast of Erin Silver Kelly's half-sister), without overwhelming the new cast with them. They're giving us old fans our dose of the originals, while introducing us in a swift and interesting manner to the new cast. It's a really interesting format and they've got me so far anyway. What do you guys think?

Otherwise thinking lots of my family and friends - both my parents have been out of town, and I've talked to my mom every day but I still usually see her once or twice a week so that's been weird. And working, and then being sick over a weekend, isn't conducive to seeing a whole lot of people either. We have two friends whose oldest children just started kindergarten in the last week or so and I've been doing a lot of thinking about them ... we did go see a couple of my friends from high school this weekend but they have a new baby and I was sick so I didn't want to stick around too long. And it was my best friend's birthday two days ago - I hope she had a great one! :D

Anyways guys I'm about to collapse from tiredness and have an early morning, but the point is that I want any of my friends who read here to know that just because it's been a busy start to my year and then I got ill, that I am still thinking lots about you and doing my best to at least stay in cybertouch. And now that I'm healthy again, and gotten into a routine ... you can expect to hear much more from me (I'll leave that to you whether that's a promise or a threat lol). And meanwhile, if anyone's looking for an easy and healthy, guilt-free way to hang out with me, I have a "Y" membership which allows me to bring a friend 5x a year (ie between now and December). So if anyone wants to join me ... let me know! :D

Glad you're feeling better. I'm officially sick. Yay *eyes roll*

Im in love with 90210. I recorded it last night because I couldn't watch it. So, I'll watch it some time today.

Was that a mention of Keean down there? He's enjoying school and the bus rides :-)

Love you! Oh, and I may just take you up on that offer of the gym.
