Our internet is being annoying.

*is annoyed*

Everyone is having to deal with the thing getting slower and slower, and some websites refuse to load entirely.

*pouts*

(Plus I have to go to lunch early, when I'd anticipated that I would go to lunch late. I had a big breakfast. Luckily lunch is light, but I'm going to be starving by mid-afternoon.)

Genarlow Wilson will finally be freed.

Most importantly at this point, the attorney general seems to have FINALLY conceeded that he's going to lose this fight and Wilson should be let out of jail.

Randomly: it's really hard to do one's necessary weekly internet research for clients when websites won't frickin load.

Ugly Betty

I want to know why I watched the show all last season, loved it, and never had an urge to icon, but the past two weeks have spawned two icon making sprees.

As the one I'm using on this post is the only one that I could make that I liked, there's sadly none others for anyone else. (I kind of wanted Yoga in the icon too, but damn if I could find a picture of the two of them.)

Seriously. Best line last night.

Yoga: "Crazy pesce."

The whole Charlie storyline has officially ruined Betty/Henry. *cries* It was such a good pairing, but the idea that they had to do so much to keep them apart killed the whole thing. Now I actually look forward to them getting rid of Henry (if that ever comes about), because they're just not suited.

Also, the glee over the supporting characters has led to the writers forgetting the fun of the main characters. It's like they walked into this season forgetting who Betty was and forgetting Daniel. The most fun those two characters are comes when they're playing off one another and it's them against the world. Alexis is an okay character, but the fact is, she doesn't bring out the fun ("I can do this") side of Daniel, which makes him superfluous. There are natural pairings on this show. When an unnatural pairing occurs, it takes some of the joy out. And to be quite honest, I prefer the pairing of Betty and Daniel (platonically, although at this point, they could be romantic and I'd be fine because it's better than Henry) because they play well off one another.

Right now, they've added too many characters to the mix. Someone needs to be cut. SEVERAL someones need to be cut. Accounting department needs to go bye bye (they should have used John Cho as a stylist of some sort, or a graphic designer). Betty's family is fine as is. Alexis could fade into the wordwork and it would be okay, or just cut her back to supporting like in the first half of season one. Mark's boyfriend I can handle, as long as we get him in small doses (so as to not take away from the joy of Mark and Amanda or Mark and Willy). We need less Bradford, the same amount of Willy, bring back our dear sweet seamstress, and find a way to make Claire and Yoga the stars of the show. (What? I LOVE YOGA. Okay?)

I'm predicting this post will take 20 minutes to load. *sigh* Stupid internets.
