I Hate Hockey

Just in case anyone misterpreted yesterday's post, I hate hockey. Absolutely hate it. The only good thing about getting blown out last night by the Leafs was that I had a nap in the third period so that I could stay up til all hours watching Survivor and Grey's Anatomy. Here's my take on things this week...

SURVIVOR

The only thing right now that I hate almost as much as the Leafs is that ditz "Poverty". I hate her big teeth, I hate her annoying voice, and I hate that she's worked her charms on Nate and now he's falling for her. She rallied the girls over on the Hot Young Stud side and they all bashed the guys for lying around and doing nothing. Ummm....hello, ladies? Take a look at 'em. They're hot. They look like Greek Gods. Their bodies are beautiful. Taking part in such activities as stomping around in the jungle, building fires, or fishing might result in scratches, bleeding, and scars. Like, seriously. Get over yourselves. Those girls should be happy to do all the dirty work, because they've got four Hot Young Studs to admire day in and day out. They're not on Survivor. They're in paradise.

My favourite Survivor remains Adam. He got over his whiny ways from week 2, and he's still the hottest of the hot. After the Studs lost the Luxury Challenge, the Whatchamacallits sent him packing for Exile Island. However, they chose not to show us footage of Adam frolocking on the island; instead, they provided clips of the Whatchamacallits climbing trees and attempting to murder baby birds. To be fair, the main culprits, Cao Boi and Jonathan, did seem to regret their actions. Here's a word of advice, fellas: Next time you're up a tree and the mama birdie is squawking at you and flapping her wings aggressively, it'd be a good idea to bugger off. They did manage to save to poor wee thing and get the nest back up in the tree, thank goodness. Stick to the fishing, boys.

At the Immunity Challenge, JP sucked at the swimming, and the girls sucked at building a fire, so they lost. The concensus back at camp was that Stephanie would be packing her bags after she admitted to being the weakest link on their team, but the girls then put their heads together and came up with a plan to oust the studly, if a bit arrogant, JP. They were successful in their endeavour, and if a Stud had to go, I guess JP was my least favourite. However, I was more than a little shocked to find out that they even persuaded Adam and Brad to help their cause. I still wish it had been "Poverty" saying farewell, but I rarely get what I want. I think the Gods let Lukas win Rockstar for me, so now I'm pretty much screwed with everything else I cheer for. That includes the Hot Young Studs and the Senators.

GREY'S ANATOMY

I love this show. I love it. Have I mentioned that before? 'Cause I really, really do. This week, I learned that McSteamy, aka Dr. Mark, will be joining the cast permanently. This just tickled me to death. Now that JP is off Survivor, and Dr. Mark is now a mainstay on Grey's, it officially overtakes the lead at the hottest show on TV. McSteamy, McDreamy, McVet, Alex & George (they don't have McNames) - all I can say is YUM!!

So this week, Izzie made her way back to the hospital to beg the chief to let her back into the program. However, memories of Denny prevented her from taking that step, and she spent the entire day outside looking up at the hospital while everyone inside wondered if she was okay. It was Alex who finally went out after dark, gave her his coat, and walked her home. God, do I hope they let those two characters hook up again. There's something about malicious Alex that I liked...but there's something about sweet Alex that I adore.

Meanwhile, Addison was trying to get the aforementioned Dr. Mark to leave town, when we all know darned well he ain't going nowhere. And Addy doesn't want him to leave, either. I mean, my Lord, if you had that man in your bed, you'd be forgetting all about your McDreamy husband too.

And George was scared of how quickly things were moving for him and Callie, so he basically kicked her out of his place, forcing her to check into a nearby motel. I don't know what to think about Callie - one week I love her, the next I'm wishing George would get rid of her. George is such a sweetheart; I'm not sure Callie appreciates him for all that he is. Out of all the handsome men on this show, at the end of the day, George is probably the one I'd pick to take home with me. He's just that kind of guy. I wish I knew one of him in real life.

Last but not least, we had Meredith, still dating both McDreamy and McVet, and loving every second of it. I loved her line, after the two lads showed up with coffee and cake for her: "I'm dating. And it comes with snacks." Man, I want to date!! However, the affection from both Derek and Finn has already begun to wear thin for her, and she's getting sick of the them competing for her. Now, seriously, Meredith. Patrick Dempsey and Chris O'Donnell...and you're sick of them?? I'll tell her the same thing I told those girls on Survivor. You're in paradise. Enjoy it while it lasts, honey!

Alright, that about wraps things up for today! I started writing this at 8:30 this morning, but due to persisting technical difficulties at work, I was unable to complete it until now, at 9:15 PM. My apologies, folks - but I do hope you all have a good weekend!
