Lindsay's BIRTHDAY

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

RHODE ISLAND WILL NEVER BE THE SAME!

DON'T LOOK BACK

Annie Wersching...my new favorite person

The season 8 promo shot of Annie Wersching who plays Agent Renee Walker on 24 (or just Renee Walker now as she's no longer an FBI agent.) We are introduced to Renee in season 7 as an FBI agent who pretty much goes by the book until she meets Jack Bauer, who takes her under his wing as they try to save the world. At first hesitant at going against protocol (because we all know Jack is not the kind of guy who does things the way the powers that be want him to do things)and by the end of the season she was a pro.

Renee & Jack strike up a friendship but their relationship SHOULD have gone further but didn't. :( I was rooting for them to kiss but alas my wishes were not granted. Annie & Kiefer (Sutherland) have such amazing chemistry with each other that the moments that their characters (Renee & Jack) have together are just so believable and emotional and as Brennan in the show Bones would say - 'heartcrushing'. Especially in their first encounter in episode 4 of the 4 hour season premiere of this season.

We learn that Renee had a breakdown after last season and has been let go (or she left) the FBI and has gone through some emotional stuff. And by the end of the 4 hour season premiere of season 8 we learn that Renee has become one badass woman! And I am LOVING the new 'dark Renee'. Oh man. Annie Wersching is phenomenal and brings her character so much depth and believablity.

She has become one of the people I absolutely NEED to meet! What.A.Woman!

Lindsay Is Death

Lindsay has the sniffles! She even took the day off work. Send her your get well wishes here!

Ireland. Oh yeah!

So it's a definite...no more hoping and dreaming, it's happening. September 17-25th! Ireland. I am SO excited. Mark and I are going and we're going to have fun. This will be the first time I'm in a different country without family members. I'm most afraid of driving on the opposite side of the road, scary!

Originally we were going to go for 10 days but Mark couldn't take a lot of time out of work. I'm most excited about going to the Cliffs of Moher...they are GORGEOUS. I've heard so many things about how amazing they are and have seen pictures that will take your breath away. Hopefully we don't fall off.

Oh man. I wish it was time to go there!

Ireland

It's happening.
Sept 17-25

Mark and Lindsay in Ireland.

We've never been. And Lindsay's been everywhere (ask her about her time in that Brothel in Harlem).

Where is Lindsay? She's obsessed with Tumblr. And she just doesn't care about her readers. We have readers, right?

If Julie Powell can have readers. Why can't we? What would you like us to write about?
