Flawed and Fabulous

My favorite show - hands down - is "Weeds". Nancy Botwin. Her crazy, but genius brother-in-law. Her (quite hot) older and responsible son. Her murdurous slightly psycho, but brillant middle son. The neighbor Celia. Doug - the stoner accountant. Delicious. They are flawed, yes. As are we all. But unlike (most of) the rest of us, they are fabulous. Nancy has got the lythe, feline dancer thing going. The iced latte diet. And she is a Mom - fiercely protective, doubtful of her example , constantly juggling her needs with the needs of her family. I am not a mom. Not an aspiring pot dealer. But if I was to chose a fictional character to be these days, it would be Nancy. What can I say, she is just fabulous.
