Post Dearest Mommie

(wow! It's been awhile since I've posted a new topic! lol)

I *really* liked this episode. Blair and the yo-yo is priceless. From the time when she first tried it "You've got it trained!" to the time she "attempted" around the world. Notice that when she was about to do around the world Nat screams "Hit the Deck!" before the yo-yo is even in the air. LOL Then after it happened and Toot, Nat, Jo, and Mrs. G. are on the bed, you can see them all laughing and Minday says something to Nancy and then Kim says something to Mindy. lol, Candid moments....

Was it just me, or did the opening credits seem to go ALOT faster this time? They kinda ZOOMED by.....maybe it was just me because it was 4:30 in the morning.......

I still think we should have seen Ellen. THAT would have been nice. I can't just HEAR about a person I hafta SEE them!


I'm done now, all in all I REALLY liked this episode!

B: You look fine!
N: Fine? I look like an eggplant!

------------------
Mr. Bradley: .....and that girls is the thrill of victory!

Tootie: Or the agony of DA FEET!

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

Natalie: I'm not jealous.....I'm wounded.

I loved this ep too. The who yo-yo thing was hilarious! But like you said, it would have been nice if we could have actually SEEN Ellen! lol

------------------
Blair: (sighs)
Jo: "I hate it when you do that!"
Blair: "What?"
Jo: "Sigh!"
Blair: "I don't sigh!"
Jo: "Well if it isn't a sigh you've got a slow leak!"
Blair: (sighs)
Jo: "You did it again!"
Blair: "That's called breathing."
Jo: "You do it just to annoy me!"
Blair: "No,I do it to keep from dieing."
Jo: "Now there's an idea!!"

I really enjoyed this episode. My best frined is Adopted and she wants to know who her mother is but her adopted mom doesn't want her to know yet. I think her mom should watch this episode. I also thought the part with Blair and the yo-yo was funny.

------------------
Nat: Alright I can't take criticism I never could even when I was a baby if people didn't laugh when I was being cute I would spit up

Blair:Yeah!Like wash it?
Jo:No!I was going for that brain less look you've got!

I loved that episode! It encouraged me to go get one of my yo-yo's out....(ugh...there was also some other stuff under my bed I didn't reconize...
This is one of my fav qoutes from that ep:
Jo: Hey, don't cut the string!
Blair: Of course not, we'll just cut my finger off
Jo: I'll got get the cleaver

------------------
Jo: Nobody move!
Blair: Why?
Jo: I lost my shoe!
Blair: Well find it you barbarian!

Blair: There's a lesson to be learned here
Mrs. G: What?
Blair: I feel like that roast!
Jo: Though and shriveled?

Jo: You've proved that Eddie and I are two dumb kids leaning way over our heads with no money, no education, and no chance
Blair: Exactly
Jo:That's why it's gonna be even sweeter when we make it work
Blair: Make what work?
Jo: Ya know tonight I was gonna say no to Eddie but you've helped me realize that he's the only one I can trust and maybe we don't have anything else but we have each other

J: Josephine's is really fancy; they even gotta dress code...
N: No bare feet is not a dress code.
