thoughts on tv {so far}

So have y'all started on the new premiers?  I have been enjoying the premiers so far (of course it's only Monday).  I spent a large part of last week watching Ken Burns' "The Roosevelts".  That was a 14 hour commitment, so I really feel like I have accomplished something there.

Last week "The Mindy Project" premiered.  It was awesome.  Man, oh man, do I love that show.

Last night was a big night of premiers for me... 60 minutes, Madam Secretary, and The Good Wife.  CBS drives me nuts on Sunday nights.  They never budget enough time for stupid football.  Then it jacks with my DVR, and Drives.  Me.  Nuts.

Anyway, I was very excited for 60 minutes.  Big.  Fan.  I have a friend who is also a big fan, so we can always discuss the episodes.  Total Nerd Alert.

Madame Secretary was off to a decent start.  I think it has potential.  It has great actors.  I just wish they hadn't dumbed it down so much, and I also wish that there weren't so many inaccuracies.  I don't mind not working my brain for an hour, but I don't want my brain to hurt for an hour due to the inaccurate depiction of the government offices.  So I'm willing to give it a go, I just hope that it gets better.

The Good Wife... what in the world?  Holy moly.  This show is good.  It's just so darn good.

I'm looking forward to more previews.  I'm just about beside myself because Thursday is the "Big" night for premiers and Texas Tech plays football.  Who in the world scheduled that?  I mean, good grief!

Any thoughts on previews you guys have seen?  Or am looking forward to?

Europe 2024 {Day 10 ~ Munich, Germany}

On December 22nd, I departed Salzburg train station at 8:00 and arrived in Munich at 9:40.  The station is under construction and a real mess!  I finally made my way out and found it was really raining.  I made my way to a taxi and took it to my hotel.  My hotel room wasn't ready but they kept my bags for me and I headed out.   I have been to Munich a couple of times and wanted to see a couple of things I haven't had a chance to do before.  I planned to to go to the Nazi Documentation Center first since it was raining, but when I looked it up on my phone to double check the hours, I learned they had just closed for renovations.  So rain or not, I was going to have to head out to Nymphemburg Palace.  I took the tram out and then walked to the palace. I don't know why, but I didn't take many pictures on the inside. I also bought a ticket to the Royal Stables Museum which houses lots of coaches. I really found all the sleighs to be a sight to see, bu...
