I am so very Down with Love!

Are you guys watching Down with Love, a currently-airing Taiwanese drama starring Ella and Jerry Yan?

Because if you are not, YOU SIMPLY MUST.

DwL has just started airing on Sundays - two episodes have aired and both are subbed on viikii (good quality vid/subs) and I am sure a subbing group has picked it up as well.

Ella is a good-hearted, somewhat mannish girl chronically short of cash and doing odd jobs to get it. Due to a combination of circumstances, she gets hired as a nanny by Jerry Yan, a top lawyer. He has taken in his small niece and nephew after the death of their parents and has been going through nannies at a frightening speed - either the children frighten them off or they try to make a move for him as he is a very eligible bachelor.

One quirk: Jerry mistakes Ella for a lesbian (long, hilarious story) and is quite happy about it - at least this nanny won't make a move on him - one less thing to worry about. And Ella must go along with her masquerade to keep her job.

Hilarity, sexiness, and awesomeness ensue.

Seriously - this is SO CUTE. Ella is her own hilarious adorable self. You can't help but love her. Jerry Yan is, always, sex on legs (he will always be my Domyouji :P) and I like that his character might be icy and brusque but is, at base, well-adjusted. I appreciate that rare quality in a drama leading man. The secondary characters are great - from the two kids (I just want to squish them), to Jerry's laid-back friend, to Ella's bossy awesome sister (I crack ship her and Jerry's friend), to random one-off characters.

The only one I can't stand (but I am not supposed to) is Jerry's quasi-ex. Sure, when your long-term boyfriend proposes to you, dump him. Then decide you'll keep him dumped for 3 months to show off and then take him back and he'll be so ecstatic. WHAAAAT? That's insane. Anyone but a lunatic would move on, as well he should.

Next episode promises me Jerry Yan being beaten up by thugs. Thank you, Taiwan!

Due to insane snow storm

Our internet is out (I am posting this on bberry).

Well, at least we have light and heat.

But obviously updates will be sporadic. They can't get anyone here this week, we are out to Hong Kong next week and week after that we can't match our schedules till the 24th. So yeah, no net for 2+ weeks. Let's see how a junkie copes.

Don't worry, I am an addict so I will try to find wifi spots.

The beyond-awesome Mr. Mousie did something to rewire things so now we have internet even if no wifi. Yay!
