Late aMUSEment

Judging by the myriad of True Blood tributes throughout the blogosphere, I know I'm not the only fan patiently counting down the days until the new season starts. With Vampire Diaries taking a seasonal hiatus (sigh), I'm more than ready to welcome Sam, Eric, and of course, Jason back to my television screen.

Uh, that's Sunday night in case you've been living under a rock too busy to check the TV guide.

In the quest for Sookie's love, I'm solidly on Team Eric - and Eric has been my muse avatar before and undoubtedly will be again very soon. Like, maybe Monday if I don't get enough of him Sunday night.

But I think Ryan Kwanten got dealt a bit of a raw deal last season, causing some people to forget he existed - or was, in actuality, one of the show's original heart throbs.

Not to worry, Ry. I got ya covered. (Sidenote: a quick Google search shows a lot of pictures of Ryan uncovered *bites knuckles* - he isn't shy in the slightest...)

Anyway, Jason wasn't the most reliable guy in the first season and while you might think that would make him a lousy muse avatar, I have a different opinion. Just as Jason is a little scattered, I figure I'm going to be pretty scattered this week as well. My lil sis is getting married Saturday and I'm in beautiful Nova Scotia to do whatever I can for her.

Inbetween making centerpieces and wrapping wine bottles, I hope to get some writing done. It's not going to be to schedule (my muse avatar post is even a day late - but hey, I was on a plane for most of Monday...) but it will be inspired.

And let's face it, Ry is rather, er, inspiring.

While I have every inclination to spend some quality time with my laptop, I don't think a 'task master' type muse is realistic, at least not this week. So if Ryan is a little distracted, I'm ok with that. If he would rather sit back and have a beer in the Nova Scotia sun, I'm ok with that, too.

And if he'd prefer to sluff off the entire week, hey, I accept even the hardest working muse deserves a few days off.

  1. I don't watch the show, but thanks for the morning eye candy. Always nice to see something so sweet so early in the day ;-)

  2. That show is on HBO isn't it? Hubs periodically changes which movie channels we get (because all the good stuff is ALWAYS on the channels you don't have, right?). Anyhow I don't think we get that channel, so I am hopefully absolved of my crime against nature in not watching. Love eye candy in the morning!

  4. I LOVE that show! I spend about two weeks in an online streaming coma trying to catch up on episodes a few months ago. Can't wait for it to come back on!
