last week's episode of Desperate Housewives

is amazing. AMAZING. marc cherry has outdone himself again. more often than not the story revolves around the main characters in all their top-form bitchery. tonight the housewives bubble was broken and we got a broader glimpse of Wisteria Lane and its fictional landscape. i'm not gonna recap it; i'm just going to keep raving. so good. how the story pans out is a tad unrealistic, yes (as it always is). a little on the cheesy side, yes. but in the process a point is made, faith in humanity restored. Bravo.

earlier tonight i went ice-skating with 8 other friends (whose respective skills and learning curves varied tremendously). last time i did this was a little over a year ago in providence so i was a little afraid that i'd forgotten and shit. and i did! it took a while to get familiar. AND i fell, um, twice. that said, knowing how to rollerblade helps a bunch. ah how i miss grade school.

me looking stoopid as usual. should photoshop sth in so i look like im holding sth. guitar? maybe a huge watermelon.

OK, i'm not over desperate housewives yet. and it's not just me and my natural tendency to melodrama, since lots of people can attest to this. i should give the ultimate credit to the guest star Beau Bridges though. i'm not a fan of drama (thus grey's anatomy consistently on my bad side) but tonight's episode can move all hearts.
