I Love Cable TV

I'm linking up with Impulsive Addict and Seriously Shawn for Talk To Us Tuesday.  There are no rules! Join us.

I am loving having cable.

The fact that I can record all of my shows while watching TV with my husband has been life changing!  Now...instead of spending hours in my desk chair watching TV, I  can now sit in the living room watching TV.  I also don't have to pay for Bravo episodes anymore.

I've had cable for 4 days and I'm already addicted to a show.  It's called Property Brothers.  Have you seen this?  Twin brothers, Jonathan and Drew show people their dream home and then dash their dreams when the home is out of their price range.  Then they show them TWO homes that belong to hoarders/people that just skipped town and encourage them to buy one of them with the promise that Jonathan (the licensed contractor) can fix it up and make it their dream home!

I like what they come up with and the reveal is always very inspiring but I really love to see what shithole they come up with for these people to look at.  And on the last episode that I watched...there was a bidding war for the shithole!

These two are also very good looking.  I like looking at them.

So yesterday, I sat down with the remote and fell into a giant hole of Kardashian.  I have a question.  Does E play Kardashian shows 24/7?  Should we change the name to Kardashian TV?

I'm not a fan of the Kardashian family.  I think they are celebrities with no reason to be celebrities.  With that said....I really like Chole and Kumar.  Wait, is that his name?   Anyway, I've seen a couple episodes of their show and it was slightly entertaining.

Yesterday, I got sucked in.  I watched 4 episodes of Kourtney and What's Her Face Disgrace New York.  This is not the real title.  I can't remember what it's called.

So.....I'm guessing that The Hump and Kim are already married in the episodes that I've watched because Kim keeps flashing her ring.  Having watched these 4 episodes, I can completely understand why Kim's married didn't last.

The Hump married Kim and then moved into a HOTEL with her sister, her drunk ass husband and a toddler.  What the heck?  Why can't they get their own apartment?  Or hotel room?  Then, The Hump isn't allowed to have any friends over.  Seriously?  He's not a child.  He had a life before Kim.  THEN, The Hump gets a paid gig making an appearance in Toronto.  But then....he gets in trouble for going, when she was on a trip with her sister anyway.  THEN she runs off to Dubai for no reason.

No wonder The Hump was acting out and Kim wants to divorce him.  The Hump should be as happy as a pig in shit that he doesn't have to deal with her crap anymore.  If this is how she treats her husband....she has no business being married to anyone.

Also....the story line of Kourntey becoming a crazy coupon lady and buying tons of toilet paper and mayo when they live in a HOTEL and never cook?  It was ridiculous.

So tell me......what is your favorite cable show that I should be watching?

Bachelor Ben Drinking Game: Week 5

I'll admit. This week's drinking game is designed to get you naked wasted. I want all of you to be hung over with me tomorrow. WINNING!

Take a small sip of your drink when:

• Someone complains about Courtney.
• Courtney takes her clothes off.
• Ben does something stupid.
• Someone cries.
• Someone risks their life on a date.
• Someone threatens bodily harm. Finish your drink if it's Courtney.
• If someone pretends to speak spanish. 
• Someone says *winning*.

• Someone laughs maniacally.  Finish your drink if it's Courtney.
• Someone says the word *ball*

• Ben wears white.
• Someone talks about their *journey*.
• Someone says they have a *connection* with Ben. 
• Someone you don't like gets a rose.  Finish your drink if it's Courtney. 

When Bloggers Become Friends

I've been blogging since July 2007. 

When I started, my daughter was just a few months old and I'd been living in Utah for almost a year without making any friends.

I was heavily dependent on my imaginary friends that lived in my computer.

Early on....I met my soul mate.

We found each other because we both posted our menus for the week on our blogs.  We became fast friends and found that we had so much more in common.  We're both very organized and crafty, we both love a good drink and we both love to eat.  We're also both damn cute.

Over the years, she's become one of my best friends.  She's been the shoulder I needed to cry on and even offered to adopt me.  I was the first  and only person that she told that she was trying to get pregnant and I was the first person to know when that test was positive!  

Jessica came to Colorado last week to visit her family and she and her little boy came to Denver to see me....and meet MY family!

I'm so happy that the internet and blogging has helped me make so many wonderful friends!

Thank you Jessica for being one of those people.

Proud Mommy Moments: You're Beautiful

I'm linking up with Emmy Mom and Kmama today for Proud Mommy Moments. Has your kid done or said anything funny or embarrassing this week? Link up!

I love getting together with my Kinder Mom friends because we are all very involved in the classroom and I get to hear great stories about Alex.

My friend Jennifer worked with him on making a snowman the other day and she reported to me that he looked up at her with dreamy eyes and told her she was looking really beautiful.

She told me that it was so sweet that I'm raising a very nice boy.

I didn't have the heart to tell her that this is his new thing now...he's also told the lady in the drive thru at Wendy's that she's beautiful.

Jennifer also told me that she asked Alex if he watched the Bronocs. He said....Oh yes, we have to watch or my Daddy will scream like a little girl!

It's also worth noting here that for the first 3 home games of the season, my kids thought their Dad played for the Denver Broncos. He has season tickets and we would say he was going to the game. Then I'd watch it on TV and tell the kids to look for him. Finally....Mallory asked me what color uniform he was wearing.

Hey!  I'm talking about beauty resolutions on my fitness blog and BlogHer is having a contest with a Kindle Fire as a prize.  Come check it out!

Honey Badger Does Care

about his cuticles.

A couple updates:

*I escaped from my family on Saturday and discovered a great coffee shop with a cute owner. 

*I'm getting an upgrade to my cable package AND a DVR tomorrow. 

*The same day I found out that I couldn't have DirecTV I got a notice that my lease was up soon.  I thought it was a sign that I was supposed to move but my budget has other ideas so I'm not moving.  This news spun me into a depression that only time with my friend Denise could cure. *see first bullet point*

*I missed this month's PTA meeting because iKeith didn't come home on time.  My stuff doesn't matter.

*After watching an episode of Private Practice, I've decided to become a surrogate to the gays.  I'm really good at being pregnant and the hours are great.  Then maybe my husband will shut up about me getting a job.

*I got together with my Kindergarten mom's last night for a P(minus T) A Meeting and it was so much fun! We did a toast to Obama for making sure that I didn't miss any of my Tuesday night shows.

*I have a meeting with my son's teachers next week.  He's not keeping up with the rest of the class and I'm scared.

*I registered Mallory for Kindergarten yesterday.  There are 204 days until school starts. 

*There are 98 days until my beach trip to California.

*I need more coffee.
