what to watch this weekend: 12/11-12/13



In middle school, I spent one [very thrilling] day at a weather station in Monterey learning about cold fronts and barometers. It was a Take Your Kid to Work type of program - but I wasn't the weather person's kid - just a nerd with a well written application. My mom encouraged it, and now that I think about it, she had always encouraged both my brother and myself to pursue weather. (She wanted my brother to be the weather guy... admittedly just so he could say hi to her every night before sending it back to the news. "Hi Mom.") A mother's pressures aside, it's finally Friday, raining in L.A., and cold - cold - cold everywhere else it seems. [See map above.] What's better to do on a rainy weekend than watch some good TV? Bravo is airing a full day marathon of America's Next Top Model on Saturday. Perfect timing I'd say. Who doesn't want to cuddle up by the fire and watch skinny girls duke it out? And speaking of cuddling, this Saturday is also my parents' 28 year anniversary. My Dad decided to buy a new flat screen TV this week, so I'm guessing in years to come 2009's anniversary will be referred to as "the year he bought the flat screen". I love my parents. [Card is on its way Mom & Dad.] I also love season premieres.. and we're in luck... [See list below.] Happy Friday! Happy watching.
