due to an overwhelming amount of winter precipitation, the entire state of oklahoma (at least the portions that are populated) has been snowed in since early tuesday morning. since i am a resident of the sooner state, ive been apartment-bound for the past week. since i am prone to procrastination and definitely not overachievement, instead of studying or doing anything remotely education-related, ive thrown myself into several days of a sex and the city marathon.
its almost embarassing to say how much i love this show. its definitely my guilty pleasure. my girly outlet. and the fact that ive got every disc of every season makes this addiction possible and dangerous. i could and do watch this show for hours. but the thing i really really love is the characters have nearly unlimited time to change and reshape their personalities, lifestyles, clothing choices and love interests; time that you just dont get in a movie. also they get to date suuuuuper sexy men, an extra fifty-six billion points.
warning to those who dont religiously watch the hbo classic: im about to spill the secrets and dissect the decisions of these four single gals.
ive seen carrie transform from an semi-annoying yet mostly witty writer with awful hair and strange clothes into a semi-annoying yet mostly witty writer with better hair and kickass clothes. well, sometimes. some of her outfits look like they were thrown together by a blind, sadistic, gay man. and when it comes to her choice in bed and or life partners, even though aidan is the most perfect man in the world and theyre right for each other in every sense of the word, you cant deny what john james preston has with carrie. im a BIG fan.
ive seen samantha transform from a perpetually single, loud, blonde sexaholic into a perpetually adoring of her se-hexxy boyfriend, cancer-stricken-and-therefore-wig-wearing sexaholic. her best man-candy is for suuure smith jerrod. his abs make me melt and his face makes me go haaaauuughhhhhh
ive seen charlotte blossom from a classically classy, pearl-wearing, soulmate-searching, gallery director into a classically classy, pearl wearing, happily married, mother-to-be. favorite leading man is of course harry. even though hes not the hottest piece of ass char has brought back to park avenue, hes certainly the sweetest.
ive seen miranda transform from a unlovable, neurotic lawyer whose hair makes ugly gingers feel good about themselves into a brooklyn-dwelling, married mother of a ginger baby. when i started watching the show, miranda made my skin crawl and my face contort and my mouth say mean mean things. miraculously, she is now my favorite character on the show. and of course, steve takes the cake and eats the whole thing. i freaking adore steve, minus his imbecile-ish indiscretion in satc the movie.
all in all, i love these girls. i wish i could emulate their fabulousity in my everyday life by wearing couture and strutting down the nyc sidewalk in manolos. i guess ill just have to settle for the runways of norman ok.
as long as i dont slip on the ice..
