Hi, I'm Fiona Wallace
It's no secret that Lisa Kudrow is an aexceptional actress. I've always admired her for her incredible comical timing and understanding of her characters. Phoebe on Friends was always my favorite, and Valerie of The Comeback was tragic but oh som funny and downright brilliant. And now Lisa starrs in a new show, once again co-created by herself.
The show in question is Web Therapy, an online series, about five minutes per episode, where Lisa plays Fiona Wallace, a quite egoistic psychiatrist who has three minute therapy sssions via web cam, in lieu of the traditional 50-minute sessions, which she finds only contains meaningless talk.Most of the show is completely improvised, and it is truly hilarious. The show has had guest stars such as Alan Cumming and Coutrney Cox, and it is one of my favorite shows at the moment. So go check it our at www.lsudio.com.
Also enjoying Nurse Jackie, by the way.
Hope everyones great!
The national day of tastelessness
Ah, so it's here again - the only time of th year when terrible (I mean laughably bad) music equals something good - The Eurovision Song Contest! And even though I really do loathe the music, I never miss even one semi-final. There something incredibly fun with this whole extravaganza. And I, at least, have the sense to not take it dead serious, like most of my fellow Swedes. Anyways, to people in Europe: Don't forget to watch and laugh, and don't forget to vote for Sweden (even if, again, I hate the song).
I fly like papers, get high like planes
Isn't it weird how everything can change over night?
I was having a real TV-low. I haven't really managed to follow any of my shows this season, and I really didn't think it would change. But all of a sudden, I'm dying for the next Lost episode, I'm totally psyched about Dollhouse, addicted to Family Guy and How I Met your Mother, and working my way up to date with Desperate Housewives and Dexter. And I'm generally loving this TV season. Except for the completely brutal slayage of Pushing Daisies! Such a loss for the world of television.
And also quite happy because spring shows its face from time to time over here in the south of the north of Europe.
I'm also slaying in school. I had an exam on French phonetics today, and it was crazy easy. And best of all - my two best friends are coming to town today, and that almost never happens, since my friend moved all the way to Växjö about half a year back. I was a bit devastated at first, though, because I was supposed to work tonight (selling burgers at McDonald's at four in the morning really isn't as glamorous as it sounds) but after calling half of my co-workers I found a guy who wanted to take my shift. Hurrah!
Hope everything's well with you guys. And also, let's marvel at the fact that it's my third blog in a really short time. Guess I might be here to stay this time around, ey?
The king of clubs expects a picnic, but it's not his birthday
I'm such a good mood today, it's almost scary. The last half of 2008 was pretty dark for me, because I got dumped in July, and had a really hard time getting over it. But now it's almost spring here (granted, there are some snow left, but still) I just finished an extremely easy exam on french grammar and I've just purchased the new CD by the wonderfully lovely Jenny Wilson . And I'm sort of dating again, which is always fun/horrifying.
And to top things off, I've actually gotten back my lust for television, and to my great relief, it was thanks to Joss and Dollhouse. I've heard that people are a bit disappointed with it, but I honestly don't see it. It's everything I dreamed it would be and more. I have also decided to rewatch Nip/Tuck, and then continue with the two seasons I haven't seen. And I'm finally going to watch True Blood, which is way overdue. So to sum up, I'm sort of loving my life right now. And tonight we have the compulsory after-exam drinking fest. Hurrah!
Good News Everyone
I'm still technically alive.
I've been a really bad Viktor this past year. Or perhaps these past years. It just seems like life got in the way.
So, I figured it was time for an update. And hopefully I'll write again sometime. Soon, preferably. I still live in Gothenburg, in my apartment. It's been over a year since I moved in, and it feels really strange that it's actually been that long. Right now I'm studying french at the university, and after the summer, I'll hopefully do a term in Brighton studying English. It has been far too long since I studied it (as shown by my bad grammar).
Last year was really an eventful one for me. I moved, started at the university, had my first relationship and my first brakeup. But now all is great, even though I suck at TV at the moment. I watch HIMYM and Family Guy, and the rest has sort of faded away. I am however looking forward to Dollhouse.
So that's about it. Just wanted to let you know I'm alive and well, and I hope you still remember me? Keep in touch, yo. I will check in, hopefully very soon, but I can't promise anything, as my computer is sick and has to be repared. Again.
Take care, y'all!

Never before nor after did Manson sound and look quite as good like on Mechanical Animals. The songs are the most layered and advanced, with both kick ass rock songs and more mellow ballads. The lyrics are also amazing, spanning from tragic love songs, to drug abuse and suicide. The fact that the CD cover and booklet further adds to the almost clinical, alienated feeling of the Album, with hidden messages, and glammy pictures, only hieghtens the experience.
Mechanica Animals, in every aspect, is Mansons best wotk to date, and most certainly will remain that way. It's the ultimate CD from one of our times biggest artists.
