Jul. 21st, 2008 08:21 pmThe sister financial / real estate / legal stuff continues apace and OMG WTF BBQ it might kill me. Not really. But ARgHhh in general. Fielded atty. calls today and possible good results look like they won't pan out, drat. Repacked most of the stuff she left at my house in nice new copy paper boxes and got rid of the old stinky buggy boxes. Yay copy paper boxes. Life's small pleasures.
Had a great time with a friend on Sat. bike riding (after I drove her to bike shop when she discovered both her tires were flat) swam at her condo pool (note: nice! must do again), watched DVDs of my newest tv addiction: Big Love. Sunday, repacked aforementioned boxes, gardened a lot, weeded my out of control magazine stacks, ran an errand for mom, watched more Big Love, gulped Aleve for my gardening backache.
So, yeah, I like it. A lot. Oh, and the music! David Byrne is the show's music guy. The opening segment is WONDERFUL - the Beach Boys' "God Only Knows," with the 4 characters joining each other on skates on ice which then cracks (death?), then shows them wandering through veils, then finding each other, and landing on, I don't know, Planet Big Love/the afterlife, together again. It's really good and the Beach Boys! woo hoo! Plus, each show ends with a marvelous, perfectly appropriate number.
Speaking of music: Weeds has 4 seasons of music for free here: http://www.sho.com/site/weeds/music.do?source=m_weeds4_email406_july08_music
Hmm. My fave shows have good music (IMHO; YMMV) over their opening segment, except for Entourage. I hate the opening sequence song and always fast forward through it.
