Admitting it is the first step, right?

jebbypalOkay, I soo totally have a problem. I'm just as incapable of not mainlining a TV show as I am of not attempting to read a good book in one sitting, irregardless of it's length.
*we interupt this post to ask that you excuse any typos. I have a migraine. Deal.*
Just finished the first 8 episodes of Entourage from the 2 discs I recieved from netflix. First off, wow, fast service.
Secondly...thoughts on the show. Except for Piven's character, it really had to grow on me. It's amazing how Jeremy Piven can play a lovable character and an asshole with the exact same energy, but generate a totally different response. I'm not sure if it's just how the characters respond to him that causes it or what. Well, and he smiles a lot less. Which is sad. But still. Seriously, Piven's character in Cupid totally sent me on a "receding hairline" fetish for a few years back in college. I still fangirl him. Amazing actor and the only thing that kept me watching for the first three shows.
After that, the formula started to change subtly. The last episode (or eighth) it changed the most and gives me hope that the next season has a slightly different energy. If I'm wrong, let me know and I'll dump it down on my queu. May split those discs up a little anyways. *makes note to do that tomorrow when my head isn't trying to fall off*
But seriously, I'm so glad that I've yet to try a hazardous substance that could hurt me. Just TV, reading...and now writing. Which are all kinda bad in their own ways---except for the TV one, they totally make me be bad in the whole staying active and eating like an adult things. And behaving like an adult thing. Course, this is probably the wrong place to complain about that. I know I'm talking to a flist full of fandom enablers ;) LOL.
Okay...gonna go find some clean sheats and get ready for bed. We'll see if I decide for the excedrin or not to take before I sleep.
