I got Wes the first season of The Wire for his birthday last year so that he could learn about the lovely Baltimore. I had never seen the show, but I used to drive through areas where they were filming and such. I'm am totally addicted and just finished the first season today. To put this in perspective, that's 13 one hour episodes and I finished it in three days. Yeah, I have a problem. Fortunately, Wes bought himself season 2 so I can continue to feed the addiction! Watching this show makes me simultaneously homesick and terrified of my hometown. I will never look at someone on a payphone in the same way.

Here's Little Kitty observing the Christmas tree. We both miss our own decorations currently in storage. :-(

I miss you Honda Civic! I look longingly at your English counterparts dreaming of the day I'll have another one. Especially days like today when the bus never shows up and I have to take the crap one instead.

I'm an NPR podcast freak. My favorite is This American Life but I just discovered the one for Radio Diaries which is fun too.

This picture doesn't fully reflect the poor state of my nails. I miss Estelle. :-(

I hit the motherload of US magazines at the Borders in Bristol! I have been DYING for a People magazine. See the little yellow and white sticker under Rob Lowe? That means it's an American import. See the price on the sticker? Yeah, £3.25. That's $6.50 for one magazine. I had to stop myself with these two, but I couldn't believe the selection! Cooking Light...US Weekly....Southern Living....O....the list goes on and on. I was in heaven!
