The only number that really matters to me is how many times a year you go get an hiv/std test. If my guy asks me, I will tell him - the chances of my asking him are almost non existent though...I don't really care about the number. If I were ever so curious, I would ask, but this is not something I have any recollection of wanting to know in my past encounters/relationships.

i cant believe she has bail. smh

is it weird that i think he is hot?

LMAO fantastic

Dennis is right. The cast of Elfquest is mixed. I kinda hope they do another one with Cutter, Rayek and Skywise :D

Before I say anything else, let me state this. I love the show. I am obsessed with it. Ok...on to my issues.

I think at this point, my biggest complaint with the show is their handling of Daenerys. She is NOTHING like in the books. Every definitive scene that we experience her in...how she grows, how her relationship with Drogo develops, how she begins to believe and know she is Khaleesi, have been completely destroyed. Where she is in the show right now, by this point in the books, we know Dany is a force to be reckoned with, and her growth and development make sense. In the show, she is still this unsure little girl who is victimized at every turn.

This is not Daenerys. Like the scene in this week’s episode for example. In the books this is the first time we see her stand up to Viserys. There were two instances in that scene that were changed that drastically change the tone of the scene, and their relevance to Dany's development. Why the writers are choosing to do this, only they know...but I sure hope that we start seeing Dany come into her own - because she is one of the main characters of these books, and she just doesn’t feel that important to me in the TV show, even though she is getting the screen time.

Another big beef I have is Drogo. In the TV show he is nothing more than a rapist barbarian, and in the books, he is so much more. He is actually one of my favorite characters, and it makes me very sad that he is not getting the treatment he deserves.

The lack of importance given to the relationship between the Stark children and the dire wolves is also bothering me a lot, but I understand that there is only so much you can do here.

Now -this week’s episode. For a third episode I thought it did its job. It wasn’t as fast paced or intense as the first two, but we were introduced to some of the major players at King's Landing. I think one of my favorite scenes was Arya and Syrio. It felt very authentic...though I disliked the fact that the scene with Ned and Arya that eventually leads up to Arya and Syrio was completely changed. Maybe I’m being overly critical but for me, it is these nuances that the TV show seems to be skipping, that make these books so fantastic. Catelyn’s arrival to King’s Landing comes to mind.

One scene that I loved but again, had issues with (I’m such a complainer lol) was Tyrion and Jon Snow when the boys are putting their swords away. It wasn’t a big deal to me that they removed the black smith all together, and gave Tyrion the lines instead, but this scene was important because it made Jon realize that though he is a bastard, he still has it better than most, if not all of the boys at the Wall...and this was not as potent in the speech that Tyrion gives Jon.

I have so much more to say, but I will keep the rest simple. The casting for Petyr Baelish is perfect. Renly left me a bit unsatisfied, Varys is perfect...and I will leave off with the question I have been asking myself in each episode...

WHERE IS GHOST??????

(sorry if this is all over the place. wrote this at work. don't tell on me) :D

they still look like bobble heads though lol but yes...much better.

I feel bad of her if she doesn't know any women that would read GRRM and want to watch Game of Thrones because it is their sincere desire. What a boring circle she must have lol Fantastic write up.

*drools* this is marvelous.

i enjoyed this graphic novel very much and think it will make a great film, with the right director/producer of course.
