Angel and Buffy..

HER: From time to time, Frank and I pick a TV series to watch. We either Netflix it or borrow it from someone.
We have been keeping up with quite a few series, trying to fit the time in between our busy schedules.
Last year, we kept up with Smallville, Heroes, Csi, Supernatural...
I picked up 30 rock, which I have to suggest, It is hilarious!!
The office, Friends and a few episodes of In the motherhood.
Recently, Frank and his Friend Chris W. Suggested Buffy and Angel. I remembered my sister watching "Buffy the Vampire slayer" back at my parents house while still playing on the WB channel. Probably passed by the screen and wondered what kind of show that was?
However, now that Frank has introduced me into the world of the supernatural. I decided to give it a try. He had mention how much he loved this show and I must confess I really enjoy it.

While the story shows an All American young girl with her group of supportive friends that help her on her mission of fighting a war against vampires, werewolves, ghosts and demons, struggling to balance the fight with their complex social lives. Frequently saving the world from its end.
Her love affair with a Vampire cursed with a Soul (Angel) and the deception of this prohibited love.
Angel works as a "private detective", helping the "helpless" and to restore their faith and save the souls of those who have lost their way.
Both of this shows are obviously connected. I personally find them really enjoyable. They capture the romance, drama, comedy. With a combination of physical combat and detective-style investigation.
We haven't finish them yet. But I can't wait to see what happens next.

With all this action on the screen going on. I am really hoping Frank and I would have the chance to get back to our summer fencing sessions at the beach! Last year, I had a blast kicking his.. .
while showing my Joan of Arc's moves in battle.
Now, he is amazing in martial arts. We have tried to simulate a couple of moves at home, it takes him 3 mins and I am on the floor. Duke and Dexter become his allies then, so of course, they give me no chance, 3 boys and 1 girl.. makes me wonder.. "Where is the fairness on that?"

I wish I had my pink boxing gloves here. Hoping to get back into Kickboxing soon.
