I woke up Sunday morning, slid into my skinny jeans, a low-cut, tight black shirt, and stilettos; and slipped on a pair of shades. There's something about going to visit the set of a series that has been labeled "slick," "sexy," and "dangerous" that just makes a gal want to look good...even at 7:00 a.m. And just why was I dragging myself out of bed at such a god-awful hour on a weekend?
