Gossip Girl: Getting Down with 3P

There is one thing, and one thing only, that I want to talk about tonight. I was so surprised, but also not so surprised. It makes total sense that it happened this way. If I wasn't so blinded my love for Serena, I would totally have seen this coming. Were you surprised? I totally didn't see Jenny not knowing how to ballroom dance, did you?

Naaah, I'm just playing with you. Let's talk about the fact that Dan, Olivia, and VANESSA ABRAMS had a THREESOME. AAAAAAHHHHH. One, AWESOME FOR DAN. I didn't think dude had it in him. Two, I think this does an away with any lingering dislike I may have ever had for Hilary Duff. Can we please, please, please make her a series regular? I think she's great. Three, (and this one comes from my dear friend Tali), I'm worried about Vanessa's annoying quotient for next week, because this threesome thing has dropped it all the way down, and like the Dow last fall, there's going to be a lot of volatility moving forward after this event. My real fear is that this little menage-a-trois is going to make Vanessa realize she is secretly in love with Dan again, which will make my insides scream "Go drink coffee and leave me alone!" I'm also afraid that will set off some kind of psychotic break in Olivia which cause her and Dan to break up and Olivia to leave the show. All in all though, the threesome was a bit of a snoozer. If only Serena were involved.....

Brief rundown of the rest of the episode:
  • Serena going after a Congressman even after she says she won't = stupid and ambitious
  • Jenny Humphrey trying to become Queen of the UES = ughh
  • Jenny Humphrey having her escort stolen from her by some new girl = Awesome
  • Jenny Humphrey using Nate (YET AGAIN) to get back in with the popular crowd = Really?
  • Serena and Blair reconciling because Chuck locked them in an elevator = Sugar and spice and everything nice
  • Serena's Dad writing to Lily = HIGHLY UNBELIEVABLE. (1) He would call (2) He would show the fuck up (3) Serena is going to go on a coke binge and sleep with Congressman Trip because of this.
I apologize if this post seems a little disjointed: I'm operating on very little sleep. I couldn't let the threesome go unacknowledged though. Have a good night.
