I finally saw Brokeback Mountain 0

What an amazing movie. Spoiler alert: The ending was so sad. I was hoping that in the end, there would be some sort of soap opera-like twist and Jack would still be alive. LOL. Too many soaps. Too many soaps.

But, that really was an awesome movie. I’m so glad that Ennis finally caved in and continued to see him. When he told Jack that they can see each other every now and then, that was a relief.

So, there’s my take on Brokeback Mountain. Hope there’s a sequel or something.

What’s going on with the Logan sisters’ mom on B&B? 0

Wow. This is a weird storyline. I first thought that she was dying and didn’t want them to know. But, now, it’s like she’s hiding something bad that she’s done. I wonder what her big secret is. They need to hurry up and let it out, because this storyline is getting boring fast. This and the Marcus storyline are the only two good things going on on The Bold and the Beautiful. I wonder if their lack of good storylines is the reason that they’re on for 30 minutes.

Lean Pockets Whole Grain Supreme Pizza - not bad 0

I normally avoid any whole grain/wheat products, because I don’t like the texture of the bread. But, the Lean Pockets Whole Grain Supreme Pizzas are really good.

I tasted them today for this first time-this evening, actually. I just ate another tonight, and found out that I overcooked it when I made the first one today. I’m used to buying the Three Cheese Quesadilla and another flavor-Mexican something. Those take 2 minutes and 15 seconds to cook. The Supreme Pizza, only 1 1/2 minutes. They taste even better when you don’t overcook them. Ha.

If their Lean Pockets taste this good, I wonder how good their Hot Pockets taste, and if they taste about the same, I wonder why people don’t just eat the Lean Pockets. I just checked a few websites and it looks like the Hot Pockets average 17 grams of fat compared to the 7 grams of fat in Lean Pockets.

I’m going to stock up on them at Kroger. I got a coupon the last time I went, plus they’re on sale.

Did I miss something? 0

Apparently, I did. Jerry and Alexis had sex yesterday on General Hospital. I must have blacked out or the writers really screwed it up -so to speak- and failed to show it on air.

At the very least, they could have shown them making out before it all happened. I’ve been waiting for her to finally just give in and be with him for a long time. This is huge! How could they not show that??? I can’t imagine what they thought was more important than showing a sex scene between anybody (lol), let alone Alexis and Jerry. I hate to think that they chose to show blah Kate scenes over Jerry and Alexis.

There’s something incestuous about Johnny and Claudia’s relationship 0

Something’s telling me that if Maxie doesn’t do the job and split up Johnny and Lulu, Claudia will take matters into her own hands. LOL. I get creeped out when I see those two so close.

I can see it now. Lulu walking in on Claudia’s trap, which is to see her and Johnny getting it on. Then, Claudia, in her low, raspy tone, tells Lulu something like, “I guess you were right about me, Lulu. I will use sex to get whatever I want.” And, then she lets out one of her little chuckles, and leaves Lulu standing there with her mouth wide open.

LMAO! I’d die if that ever happened.

I’m getting so tired of this back and forth between Patrick and Robin on General Hospital 0

Do you want him in your baby’s life or not, Robin? Patrick, do you want to be a father or not? Gawd, they annoy me. They are the most boring characters ever-and that’s including Elizabore, so that’s saying a lot.

Her name is Marty 0

We all know that the woman in Ramsey’s Todd’s penthouse is Marty. But, for some reason, my closed caption refers to her as “Woman.” That’s weird

Why does Kate even try? 0

She’s no match for Carly.

I bet Carly is just tempted to tell Kate that she slept with Sonny, but, of course, she’s going to keep her mouth shut while she’s still working on her marriage to Jax. But, just wait until they fall apart. I can’t wait to see the look on Kate’s face when she finds out that they slept together.

Maxie, I see where this is headed 0

She’s headed for big trouble. Aside from the obvious players (Lulu, Johnny, Lucky, Nikolas, and possibly Kate), I wonder who is going to be pissed at Maxie’s new scheme - seducing Johnny. I don’t know. These schemes just never work as they’re intended on the soaps. lol. Something has to happen. Either someone’s going to get hurt-maybe she’ll drug Johnny to get him to give in to her, and he’ll have a bad reaction, or she’ll do something to piss Claudia off and Claudia will turn on her and try to kill her.

All My Children is the most boring soap opera 0

Right next to Y&R. And, I’m taking Guiding Light into consideration, so that’s saying something.

I just can’t get back into this soap. I don’t want to see casual talk in every scene. What’s with that?

The last time I was watching AMC on a regular basis, the whole Babe/J.R./Babe’s best friend love triangle was taking place. And, some guy’s father was buried alive? A girl with autism was kidnapped. The show was worth watching. But, not now. Where’s the excitement?

I think they need to bring back Natalie’s crazy sister, Janet. Or, perhaps, bring back Skye Chandler, and sneak in some of her bad General Hospital influences. Unfortunately, I don’t think even that will help AMC. They need to quit trying to be ‘cool, hip, and modern’ by having so many boring young storylines, or simply make them more explosive. Until then, I can’t watch All My Children.
