And I didn't even get you anything!

apocalypsosAlanis Morrissette!God, if you're up there, thank you for two different versions of Project Runway for me to obsess over at the same time.
1. MARK! *hearts him* Oh, man, he's so catty and squeally and he has ice cream hair! And he's a good designer, too! I want to KEEP him. And hang out with him (and maybe Leigh, too) at some fabulous gay bar somewhere.
2. Also awesome -- Petrovna. God, she's so WEE and cute. And I kind of want to raid her closet because she's got such great pieces that she wears. And also some faboo designs of her own. The beach-to-bar outfit was lovely.
3. Oh, and I like Shane. He's laidback compared to everybody else, but he's very professional and appears to know what he's doing.
4. As for for I haaaaaate ... Helen. Oh, Lord, like the PR world needed another Wendy Pepper. Wait, I wake that back. She's not entirely Wndy Pepper. Wendy might have been a ginormous bitca, but at least she spent more than five minutes working on her bloody designs. Ugh. And because I hate her, she'll probably stick around forever.
5. I'm also not all that keen on Sophie, Oren (who may redeem himself next week, who knows?), and Brent (ugh, I saw that "I'm a menswear designer" in the previews for the rest of the season and cringed).
6. HENRY. WOOT.

Oh, I almost forgot last night was America's Got Talent. Thank God my schedule starts to roll back around next week so I can start watching my shows as they air.
This is Donald Braswell singing "You Raise Me Up" and winning the crowd back after they were willing to throw him away at first.
These are the Dallas Desperados cheerleaders. I didn't like them personally because while, yes, they are very hot and energetic, but I was catching a lot of missteps and a few of the dancers out of sync, and if I'm catching it that's bad. But they're going to Vegas, so. *shrugs*
These are the ZOOperstars. They're kinda silly and stupid, but they made me smile.
This is Kenneth Paryo doing a killer robot act.
If YouTube's any indication, I didn't miss much last night. And I'm loathe to read the TWoP recap because ... well, there's so few of their recappers anymore that read like they hate things about TV rather than TV altogether.

EDIT: Hrm. I think I may have accidentally dumped on my mother over the phone. She called from her vacation and asked if anybody had called me back for any new jobs, and I vented about being woken up the other day by a creditor, my boss offering me an unwanted layoff, and her, "soooo, basically nobody I wanted to hear from." Is what I think I said. Er. Hm.
No, really, I don't mind hearing from my mom. You know, just as long as it's not about what a self-centered idiot my brother is.

Date: 2008-07-16 10:40 pm (UTC)I jumped on the PR Australia train a few days ago. I have a really bad feeling about this season of PR Original Flavor, so the Aussie one could end up being my go-to reality show for the summer, despite their extremely subpar Tim Gunn replacement. (But how many people could replace Tim adequately? NOT MANY.)

Date: 2008-07-20 05:23 am (UTC)Mark's ice cream hair is RIDICULOUS, but I like him. Actually, as of right now, I don't really hate any of them yet, though I'm edging toward annoyance with the guy who Just Can't Finish. Helen doesn't bother me -- yet. If she keeps harping on how fast she is, however...

Date: 2008-07-20 09:13 am (UTC)Helen just ... ugh. The thing that bugs me about her saying she's such a fast sewer is that Christian used to say the same damn thing but he looked like he HAD to be fast, you know? His stuff was so complicated (albeit awesome) that there was no way in hell he was getting finished if he WASN'T fast. Helen's stuff looks like I could make it by myself without a pattern in the time she's got and I can't make anything without a pattern. So hearing her go on and on ON about how she's so fast and oh, isn't it annoying how she has to help all these slow people, WOE, just makes me want to bang my head off things.
But Mark makes up for a lot. Oh, MARK. I also kind of want to adopt Petrovna and her adorable little hat.
