Do you have Showtime? The new series "The Tudors" is amazing. Well, of course Jonothan Rhys-Meyers is a hottie, who, self-admittedly bears NO resemblance to H8, it is a really juicy, beautifully done foray into the early years of H8's rule, specifically his break with the Church and Anne Boleyn.

I'm loving the Tudors and it has nothing to do with the hottie king who always has his shirt off and some rock hard nipples... um... ahem... well this is awkward.
I've never been so happy for the free 6 months of Showtime in my life yay for being a new cable subscriber.

And it has nothing to do with the firmly carved upper lip and constant glisten to his shirtless torso. The piercing blue eyes really do nothing for me.  Nah. Not so much. I need a moment alone now.
OMG!!! He is one sexy beast!!

I love to read Philippa Gregory and about all things Tudor, too!
I will be starting David Baldacci's latest, Simple Genius tomorrow. I always have three books going; a hardback for bedtime, a paperback in my purse, and one for reading aloud to my mom. My current paperback is Traitor, by Stephen Coonts, and S Is For Silence, by Sue Grafton for reading aloud. My uncle & I share thrillers (Vince Flynn, Brad Thor, etc), but my mother prefers "nice, clean murders"(!). I like thrillers & historical fiction best, and the occasional mind candy. I seriously considered subscribing to Showtime just to see The Tudors, but I'm sure it will go to dvd somewhat soon. At least, I hope so!!
Reading my Bible goes without saying.

Nothing but textbooks lately...
Well, I've been slowly burning through the Jack Ryan series by Tom Clancy. Cardinal of the Kremlin has been being read 2-3 pages at a time since the beginning of the semester

Currently I'm reading Lucy Sullivan is Getting Married, A Supreme Conflict, and The Alexandria Link. I usually read two or three books a week on the bus and before bed.

Acceptance by Susan Coll.
This is a really funny work of fiction. It is a look at the college admissions process of three families and a stressed-out admissions counselor at a LAC that has just moved into the top 50 on the US News rankings through a data calculation error. The HS is supposedly in Montgomery County but it could be any upscale suburban school. I was on the waitlist for this book for a month but it was worth it!

Mostly legal texts, obviously, because of law school, but I finally finished The Beer and Whiskey League: The Illustrated History of the American Association. It's about the early days of baseball in the American Association, its fight with the National League, and the players who made up the league. I'm a baseball geek, so the information is very good; however, the authors get a bit overboard at times in complaining about the better AA players not being in the Hall of Fame.
