I know, I know
April 16, 2008I’ve been a neglectful mother again, baby chickies. Well, let me spit up some more life stories to tide you over.
The latest busy-ness has been me taking Kaplan courses all day Mon-Sat to prepare for Step 1, which is less than 1 month away! I don’t know anything! Stop! I need to study!! (I even went out and bought caffeine pills so I could re-create that Saved by the Bell scene)
But this morning I said “screw it” and slept in. Then I did a little bit of studying, but I also worked out with a friend, and then he cooked dinner and invited a bunch of us over.
Then we watched the first episode of Rome. It’s totally high-quality, but some of the scenes really brought back memories of Xena: Warrior Princess. God, I miss the nineties.
Ok back to work: lymphomas!

What are you trying to say about X:WP?
I liked the Rome episodes of Xena, and I found them to be high quality, what with Karl Urban as Julius Caesar and Manu Bennett as Mark Antony. The costumes looked great on them, especially the latter.

I’m one of the biggest Xena nuts there is. But you have to admit, their production budget was a bit smaller, and some of the special effects were pretty cheesy. Like the CGI Poseidon?
And let’s not forget the baby-throwing fight scene. No show can take itself too seriously after a scene like that.

(although that is also my favorite scene of the entire show)
