The Love Fest Returns

Heroes came back with a vengeance after a much too long winter break. I have to admit, it was worth the wait. The show picked up right where it left off and then some. I was on the edge of my seat and literally tingling at times. Yes, tingling. Big thanks to the writer(s) and everyone who does the show.

Anything, be it a person such as hubby or Hayden or author, or an activity such as skiing, or a movie/show such as Star Wars or Heroes, that gives me tingles captures my heart. I become a dedicated fan/admirer/participant and I'm willing to forgive much in those instances. I just hope Heroes keeps it up and can keep from going the way of LOST. Nothing worse than being disappointed by something you love!

A few of my fave moments last night (seriously I loved the entire show!): Claire saving Peter, learning Linderman was behind everything including the group Claire's dad works for, watching Nathan become enraptured by the thoughts of power, Hiro finding the time line in the future and bumping into himself. The sound of the sword in the background from future Hiro pulling it out of the sheath was so cool.

Saddest moment, of course, was about Isaac Mendez. One less hottie on the show. But I loved how he said he finally got to be a hero!

Aside from watching Heroes, I worked on the book. Made it to the top of the wall I hit last week and may finally get completely over it today! Needless to say, the words are coming and new pages being added. Thank goodness! I'm still not at chapter six, but once I reach that the tally will return. Good thing with the deadline quickly approaching.

I'll try to make the Titanic Dinner the topic of the blog tomorrow. I want to do it justice, but at this point I probably just need to get it done!

So what out there has captured your heart? Did you get tingles while either seeing, watching, reading, doing it?

WTG on climbing the wall and going over it. I'm sure you get to chapter six before you know it.

Heroes totally rocked last night! But as my friend Mandy said over on my blog. Why the heck didn't Mohinder kill Sylar while he was unconscious?!

WTG on reaching the top of the wall! I'm sure the trip over will be fun!

I do enjoy my Bones and NCIS shows. Those are about the only ones I get the "tingles" from, as far as tv.
When one of my favorite authors has a new book, I become nervous and hyper and happy and scared to read it.

Dru - thanks. I'm on chapter five right now. I just cannot to be done with hit.

Tori - yes, that was strange about not getting rid of Sylar when he had the opportunity. Shock, perhaps?

Thanks, Brandy. Cool about how you feel with your fave author. Are you scared to read it because you don't know if you'll like it or not?

Brandy said...

Yeah, I worry that it won't live up to the last book, or that I won't like it and therefore lose a favorite author.
