TV crushes
by Denise Sawicki on May 8, 2009
I need to apologize for the rather fangirlish reference in my last goo. I was having a little crush on Marcus Cole when I made the goo... that is my justification.
When I say 90210 in the rest of this post it is perhaps incorrect because I mean in fact "Beverly Hills 90210", the old one, not this new one that came on TV this year that is called just "90210"... which I have very little interest in... but anyway...
Um, speaking of TV crushes is it just me or does Dylan on 90210 look quite a bit like Spike on Buffy ? :P He doesn't have the insanely prominent cheekbones really but there is this weird resemblance. They both have eyebrow scars, although on opposite eyebrows. Can you imagine how bored a person has to be to notice something like that?!?... I don't really have a thing for Dylan though. Spike is just more interesting. And he definitely dresses better, and there's the cool fake accent :P I read a theory actually that Luke Perry's character in the original Buffy movie (which bears very little resemblance to the series) played an early version of Spike. The character name was Pike... and while not a vampire he was supposed to be a cool dude... hmmm...
Anyway, I am not sure why people hate on Beverly Hills 90210. It seems like a good show. I would definitely say it seems better than our previous obsession, The O.C, which seems to have stolen a lot of their plot lines besides. The season 2 xmas episode we just watched was beyond dorky though. But it has usually been quite good, so far. Bringing it back around to the beginning of my post, Marcus is supposed to appear in 5 episodes of 90210 coming up 4th season. Yay...
90210 does kind of tend to have a moral in every episode and be a bit dorky, so it is kind of a cross between Little House on the Prairie and a more modern teen drama.... But hey... I love Little House on the Prairie, too.
I'm probably going to get embarrassed and delete/edit this.

Greatcoat
So I am rather pleased to have bought what seems to be a US Air Force greatcoat for $12.50 at a thrift store... Darrell wants to be Jack Harkness for the convention or for Halloween and I can't say I blame him. Go »Insecurity, North Dakota weather
Does my insecurity have no end? Will I ever stop embarrassing myself and annoying others by putting myself down? Is there some drug I can take to make myself stop? Go »Our dog is smart
Our sheltie, Philip, is really smart. Here is his latest Oscar-worthy film, where he shows off his ability to mimic Darrell doing the following actions: turn a circle, stretch, sneeze, lie down, roll over (partway), hop, and speak: link Philip also knows how to read a few words, kind of, though I think he gets bored with it :-). Currently he's in school for agility, which entails learning how to run around a course jumping hurdles and using tunnels and seesaws in a prescribed manner. Go »Vacation
Well I requested some time off work until January 3rd... For the price of 4 vacation days I get 11 days off. We're going to go visit my husband's older brother in Wisconsin around New Years... Go »Mystery Halloween costume
This might look like two guys in ugly clothes, but in reality it is a very nerdy Halloween costume. Can anyone figure it out? Edit: Steve West figured it out, answer is in the comments. Go »

We all have our nerdy crushes. More than one Survivor contestant has inspired a crush here, and Maura Tierney on ER. Then again, I somehow made it through five Star Trek series without being attracted to any of the women, not counting a high school crush on Terry Ferrell. Rosalind Chao was almost in the DS9 cast; I guess she counts.
