I stumbled upon the Duckcloth Blog today. DuckCloth sells fabrics in different prints which is all kinds of fun and I wish I could sew - and since I have a sewing machine, you’d think I could (it’s all a rouse!) The patterns available include some animal prints (yay, animals). When I saw them the very first thing I thought of was Dr. Temperance Brennan (Emily Deschanel) of Bones. Even when it comes to babies, she doesn’t very much like the thought of animals being depicted illogically - as we learned in the episode Baby in the Bough.

But I think they’re great fun. I’m especially loving the French Poodles. It combines my love of girlish glee, animals, and all things French! I’m sure Bones would say that animals do not want to wear full outfits, or even little bows. She might also point out that pigs don’t stand upright, and turtles are not red - “…except for the rare so-and-so turtle with a red-spotted shell. Which a baby would never be near unless they somehow were abandoned in an African cave in the 1800’s.” Well, that’s what I picture her saying! If you can think of other quotes that Bones might say about the way cartoon animals are depicted on blankets, as toys, etc - share them in a comment!

Turtles probably aren’t in Africa, huh?

Monday’s episode of Bones was (and I don’t want to oversell this) SUPER-FREAKING-FANTASTIC. Aside from that thought, could you help from noticing how often Bones’ books were mentioned? I don’t think this was a ploy, I think it made sense in the story. But it did get me interested in following-through on actually reading the books by Kathy Reichs that inspired this TV show. Inspired by, based on? I think it gets a little muddled, from what I hear the books are different, even though the character is named Temperance Brennan, just as on the show. I don’t think I will mind, though - because the study of forensic anthropology is interesting.

The first book Reichs’ wrote about Brennan (published in 1997) is called Déjà Dead. The latest book (out in August 2008) is called Devil Bones. I suppose I’ll want to read them in order, so I won’t get to that one for a bit. Oh well!

Bones (Emily Deschanel) and Booth (David Boreanaz) have great (I don’t want to say ‘chemistry’…) vibrations between them, that the end of the episode really picked at our emotions.

Fox TV is doing well.

If you’ve read any of these novels, what do you think of them?

Upon discovering Postcards From Yo Momma I have felt uplifted that I am not the only one with a crazy mother. I suppose this is nice timing (I can’t actually say I planned this) since Mother’s Day is fast approaching. I had to google the day myself. For anyone who may have forgotten and are asking themselves ‘when is Mother’s Day anyway?’ - worry no more: it’s on Sunday, May 11th for 2008. But as for a Mother’s Day gift, that’s up to you. And here’s some wise, kind advice: no one wants another coffee mug.

This post is similar to one I did about The Office, remember that? If not, that’s why we have tags! Basically, I’m taking the actual real quotes, and then assigning a TV character to match. It’s a fun game to learn and play. So, hereeee we go!

I must love you
This will be the title of all my e-mails from now on, since everything you ask me to do is a royal pain in the ass.

Could have been said by: Joy Lass from Dead Like Me (actress Cynthia Stevenson). Ever so cynical, you know she’d be a difficult mom to deal with.

Passover
Dear Sweetie Pie,

I have acquired a beautiful yet practical blue, gold,and clear glass seder plate for the [xxx] family. It is the kind I would choose for myself: artistic yet easy to wash, not too heavy, and having no crevices for food to stick to. It’s too bad they won’t have it for the first night of Passover. I hope they don’t go out and buy one. Can you hint that they won’t have to after Sunday? It would be a shame.

I hope your day went well and without travail.

Did [xxx] get my email?

Love, MOM

Could have been said by: Emily Gilmore from Gilmore Girls (actress Kelly Bishop). Specific, ridiculous requests have always been her specialty.

Aspertame
In my previous email, I forgot to mention the article about aspertame was under-previous columns.
You should also read the article on fungus.

Could have been said by: Temperance Brennan from Bones (actress Emily Deschanel) if she was a mom right now.

Jewlez CD
Hey,

I got a package from Jewlez (or something name like that today from Florida.) I opened it and it was a brand new Doors CD. I have not ordered a Doors CD. Did any of you? With the way things are, I wanted to follow-up to make sure no one is using my name/ID.

Well, if you solve the mystery, you get a prize. (No, it is not a trip to Hawaii, but it could be a very nice dinner at Applebee’s.

Also, Maisie has to have expensive surgery next week. Taz is ugly and your dad snores. My life is rich beyond words.

LOVE TO YOU ALL!

MOM

Could have been said by: Regina from Samantha Who? (actress Jean Smart). She is the type to drone on about her problems, be a tiny bit clueless, and then also say something sarcastic that makes you love her.
