I think Monday’s Six Word blog is going to have to share space with….MAD MEN. Soapy as it is, lines and characters predictable – I love it.  And to think I almost forgot to take charge of the remote in time to see it – we all know Peter was well on his way to watching CONFESSION on TMC!

Monday Morning Recap

It was painful to watch Roger succumb to the demands of a haughty, self-aggrandizing client and put on the Santa suit.  Oh those of us whose income depends on pleasing on a client rather than the use of our own intellect and talent… Hey isn’t that all supposed to go together??

And then there’s Don – so true to form!  We can count on him to get drunk and screw some skirt that happens to pass by in his visual field,  impaired as it must be considering his state of inebriation.   Props go to the nurse who so outrageously flirted with Don, but scooted away safely when she realized there was nothing to be gained there.  Too bad Allison, Don’s secretary  couldn’t think past the drunken attention she was receiving from her boss!! She presented an unflattering depiction of an attention-starved woman, an over-giver and worst of all, a pathetic embodiment of a naive, although I think she should have known better woman who believes that if a man fucks you, then he must really like you!  Too bad Carole King and Gerry Geffen’s hit,  Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow? hadn’t been written and recorded yet!!! AND  what’s really telling about that song (all women take heed) is that Gerry wrote the lyrics!!!!!!!

Talk about PAIN – poor Allison felt like a $100  hooker the next morning and Don… well, and we thought  Betty was made of ice lol lol.  The laugh’s on us – he was one cold bastard the morning after the night before!!!  I wrote six words describing despicable Don:  womanizer, unfeeling, cold, angry, drunk, selfish. Pretty harsh I know and I like him – although truth be told I think my feelings have more to do with his looks than anything else – oh yes I know how shallow that makes me.

MAD MEN, Don Draper, New York City, ad men, Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?

And he looks so charming too, Who knew?

However, one possible explanation for Don’s dismissive attitude towards Allison in the office was that he had a blackout! Oh how redeeming that would be as well as damning because who needs an alcoholic who blacks out in their life???
