RANDOM FRIDAY ON BBCA'S "BEING HUMAN"



Let me just first admit that I love the BBCA channel. They bring some awesome, sci-fi/fantasy/supernatural shows. From “Dr. Who” to “Torchwood” to “Primeval” to “Being Human”. Awwwh…. “Being Human”. I am a huge fan of this show. It’s basically about a group of not-so-normal friends trying to live a normal life.


You have Mitchell, the sexy-ass vampire, trying his damndest to live without spilling human blood.
Aidan Turner

There’s George, the good and somewhat socially challenged werewolf.
Russell Tovey


Nina, George’s werewolf girlfriend/baby-to-be-mama, who’s spitfire personality helps to balance George’s quirkiness.
Sinead Keenan


And last but not least, Annie, the sweet & friendly ghost.
Lenora Crichlow

Not to be confused with the current American version that comes on the Syfy channel. I mean, don’t get me wrong. They’re the same basic show but the American version feels so rushed. Hell, it’s the 1st season and the werewolf’s girlfriend is already knocked-up. Not cool.

However, BBCA’s “Being Human” has taken the time to develop the characters to the point where you don’t feel like it’s some quick, fly-by-night romance where you don’t even know what the other person is allergic to or where you're not quite sure how to spell their last name correctly. No. This show is on its 3rd season, in which, by the way, the werewolf’s girlfriend is pregnant. Thank you.

Anyhoo, I absolutely cannot wait for Saturday night’s season finale. Last week’s episode had me screaming and talking to the TV. Well, actually the characters. Er, uh… It’s great TV so give me a pass people. Lol.

Holla at me if you’re a fan of the BBC version. Btw, I do watch the American version but I’m not that fond of it but I am trying to give it a chance.


Have an awesome weekend!

FRIDAY FREEBIES - MY CURRENT OBSESSION

My Current (and growing) Obsession - Nail Polish


It happened so suddenly. I was perusing through a magazine. Maybe it was “O”,“Essence” or "Style" magazine. I dunno. Not sure, but when I saw that Tracy Reese had a line of nail polish from partnering with Sally Hansen, I got a little excited. I like Tracy Reese’s clothing line, so my interest was totally peaked with the idea of her dabbling in nail polish. I caught a glimpse of her fall 2010 polish line and really wanted in on the action.

 Evening Fog”, “Fedora”, and “Wet Clay”. By the way, why can’t I find any of these friggin' colors?! Was this a limited edition line? *Frustrating!* This is upsetting to me seeing as there are three of this line, in particular, that need to be in my growing family of polishes. If anyone knows where to get these particular colors, please let me know. I am even willing to purchase them online. Yes... I am.


So I went to my local Walgreens and spotted their stash of Sally Hansen’s Complete Salon Manicure and commenced to shopping.

Now, it innocently began with my search for a gray nail polish.

How it morphed into me hording various nail polish colors beats me. It's like a switch was turned on in me.

So ended up purchasing the “Commander in Chic”. Not exactly gray but I thought it was rather cute and would look good on my hands. Then I remembered that I was looking for gray, so I ended up purchasing “Pedal to the Metal”. It was close to gray, well..more like a metallic lavender-ish, gray.

Still not a definite gray. So I went back.
"Navy Baby"
And instantly fell in love with “Navy Baby”. So chic and a little bit "rocker-chickishHaha! Problem solved.

*Ooh, I got issues.*
"Choco-Latte"
Oh, but I still haven’t purchased the gray nail polish color that I want. So I went back and ended up walking out with “Nude” because everybody needs a nude nail polish color, right? Damn! Gotta go back. And it’s gray. Gray! So I’ve got my focus, right? And I’m looking for gray but I don’t see any. Not to be outdone, I purchased a beautiful red in its place. Cause every woman needs some red something in her life.  And oh, my God! This color is soooo gorgeous on!
"Red Zin"

*sighs*

Okay, so it’s almost nothing left to get but gray. Haven’t found it in this particular nail polish line, so I’m thinking I need to branch out to other lines, like Essie. I will try to pick it up this weekend but please….

Don’t judge me if it’s not gray.  ;)

Anybody else out there obsessed with nail polish?....
