I Like Mike and Ed

Magic Mike

Call me a horny housewife.....but I loved Magic Mike.  I'm seeing lots of tweets and blog posts about how wrong it is to like the movie and objectifying men.  If loving naked men is wrong....I don't want to be right!

I did feel badly for my husband.  Aunt Bobbi and I saw the film at Noon while he took the kids to Brave.  Then we went and sat on a hot patio and drank a couple beers.  By the time we got home I was tired and his window of opportunity had closed.   Poor guy!

Katie Holmes

I love Katie.  We were pregnant at the same time (Suri and Alex were born two days apart) and we're both married to older men.  I'm proud of her for putting her daughters needs first and breaking free.  She must have really had some dirt on Tom for this divorce to be settled so quickly.

The Bachelorette

I don't know why....but Emily is annoying me.  Her outfits are weird and she wears too many necklaces.  I really just can't wait for this season to be over so we can see how long her and the man of her dreams last.   The funniest tweet I saw last night said that...in the most dramatic rose ceremony ever(!) Emily picks Chris Harrison and they adopt Jef (with one F). Funny!!

Bachelor Pad

I'm excited for this piece of trashy TV because.....ED IS BACK!  Do you remember Ed?  He was the winner of Jillian's heart and they didn't make it.  I fell hard for Ed and I can't wait to see him on my TV again.

Come to Mama
Playful Minds Math

I found a free iPad app that is helping keep my kids ready for the next school year.  It's a math app and it's for Kindergarten through 2nd graders.  Your child creates their own avatar that travels from island to island completely math problems! You can find info about it here.


NBA Summer League

Are you a basketball fan?  Did you know there is a summer league and an app to go with it.  Download it today!

School

For those that are keeping track....there are 37 days until school starts.  Don't get me wrong...I'm not trying to rush summer.  I just like to be aware of how much time is left so I can plan things accordingly.  I don't like to be caught unprepared or unaware.  This is why my family will survive the zombie apocalypse.  This is also why....I bought the school supply kit from the PTA, school clothes have been purchased and hung in the closet and a lunch box has been pick out and stashed away for the first day of school.  WE are READY!

Drinking

I just love summer and having cocktails on patios! Even better if it's raining while I'm drinking on the patio.  Did you see my Ivy Gimlet from yesterday?  Better check it out!

I'm linking up with Impulsive Addict and Seriously Shawn for Talk To Us Tuesday!

  1. A.) I am so annoyed that I have not had time to see Magic Mike; I think objectifying men is only fair. B.) I've been watching some of the NBA summer league; it's a nice in between before NFL. C.) I have been drinking outside lately too! Even though it's been high 90s here, it just seems appropriate for summer.

    1. I think it's a proven fact that drinking outside in heat makes you cooler.

      GO SEE MIKE!

  2. I have heard so many people complain about the bad acting in Magic Mike. I say who goes to see that movie for the acting?!?

    I love that you're so prepared all the time. We will purchase our supplies in the mass hysteria of Walmart 2 days before school starts. And we will also be the first to die in a zombie apocalypse.

    1. Seriously. The acting wasn't that bad. It's not like they will be nominated for an academy award or anything! GEEZ!

      You can came to my house if the Zombies attack!

  3. As a single girl, Magic Mike was like a friggin dream come true. I don't care if it's wrong and horrible. Dance for me, Channing. Dance for me all damn day.
    Feel bad for your hubs, though. lol
    Cocktails on the patio are the best. I need to have more of them. ;)

  5. Men have been objectivwhatever women forfreakinever so who cares! And the only ladies that would have a problem with it are those that hate men.

    I did check out the gimlet. sounds delish.

  9. I don't think Emily will last with whomever she chooses because that girl is not giving up the gravy train in Charlotte to move, no matter what she says. She's got a good life there.

    I suspect you may be right about Katie and Tom and some dirt she likely has.

  10. I was doing good, keeping up ith everything you said until you mention Zombie Apocalypse, now all I can think of is GET IN THE HOUSE CARL!

  11. Emily's voice is stupid. There I said it. I don't watch the shows but I see the promos and she just seems like such an airhead!
    Aw, poor hubby. You watched Magic Mike and you still weren't ready for him? I thought that was the benefits for the guys? ;-)
    I'm trying to rush summer. It's our first one here in the new town, and it's SO DAMN HOT. I'm not a fan of 100 degree days at 11am. It'd be better if we were closer to the water or somewhere that we could cool off.

  12. Team Katie. What a weirdo! My husband loves Katie and was thrilled she is back in the game. He informed me that he is too, if she calls... Ha!

  13. I drooled all over myself at the movie. My Mike showed me his magic later but the moves werent QUITE the same. Close though..

    I love Emily but yes, too many necklaces. And BP is my fav hot mess of a show! I'm also getting excited about Big Brother which starts tomorrow!! Eeeeek! (And I still watch Real World on MTV). I'm a tv junkie.
