It's been an odd week for me. Can't really put my finger on the exact "why" but it has been. Been out of sorts so no blogging in the last week either. But I am coming out of my fog and thought I'd drop some random thoughts.
* I am thrilled that my man Obama has gotten the nomination for the democratic party!
* I read where my new boyfriend Gerard Butler is making a movie with Katherine Heigel. I suspect another romantic comedy and I am happy about that.(insert swooning here)
* We have been having some really bizarre weather for the mid Atlantic region. Yesterday tornado's and tree's falling on people while driving and killing them. We don't normally get tornado's so this was very odd....and sad.
* My Yankees are in the cellar and there doesn't seem to be a way out for them this year. (insert heavy sigh here) I'm sad but in my lifetime there haven't been a lot of these so I guess I shouldn't whine....but I will at times I'm sure - be warned.
*Speaking of baseball my FAVORITE show in the summer is "MY BOYS" if you haven't seen this show - what the hell have you been watching in the summer?"
This show is so damn good. It's quick, it's witty,and it's just plain fun. I love the whole concept. This pretty young thing named PJ is the lead. She is a sports writer for a chicago newspaper. Her friends are all men with the exception of one very pretty foo-foo girl named Stephanie. It's a great balance for her because she can sometimes be too much of a tom-boy and Stephanie will reel her in, in a cute way but she will never be like Steph. Which is a good thing. PJ reminds me of my friend Kathy. Cute as hell, the boys loved her and she was most comfortable in their world and she never really knew how damn pretty she was.
I like all the characters because to me they are so real. I have to say that while I have so many favorites it truly makes me laugh when one of the guys, Brendan, is on this list that is published as one of the years Sexy Bachelors in Chicago and he really changes. They all decide to have an intervention - a "Douchebag Intervention." It's hysterical to me. Check it out on TBS.com or TBS this Thursday on the 12th. Hey I don't even get paid for this. I would so do advertising for this show - for free - I love it that much!!
* It's hot as all get out here. In the 90's and the same with the humidity. Going to the lake tomorrow and hopefully now the lake is warmer than 63 degrees so I can jump in with my floating chair and have my favorite beverage.
* I watch the CBS evening news, yes I am the one. I saw Katie interview 8 women who were Hillary supporters. She was asking them who they thought they would vote for. I found it interesting that they weren't sure. They really think Hillary was robbed because she was female. They think it was all a sexist plot? Really? Not because she was abrasive, a bully, had PAC or Lobbyist money, or that you had to take Bubba too, or that they have entitlement issues because the Clinton's think they just should ALWAYS WIN or that she is polarizing? So now they think they are confused? WTF?
You can't vote by gender ONLY you dip shits. DUH!
* David Sedaris has a new book out. Check him out from this week's The Daily Show.

I defy anyone to read his books and not laugh out loud.
* As ya'll know I am a TV fan. This week on WGN there has been a 70's sitcom extravaganza. Each day is a different 70's show. The first episode is the premiere episode. Then the other 3 are favorites with 1 of them being the absolute fan favorite. Monday was Mary Tyler Moore night. The favorite was the clown funeral and I still think that is funny. Tuesday was Barney Miller. I remember when the show about them eating hashish brownies first aired. It was so forward thinking for the times. Funny as hell too. Last night was Taxi. I love Louie DiPalma - 'nuff said. Tonight I don't care about - it's Welcome Back Kotter. Didn't even like it in the 1970's But after MTM, Friday's is what I can't wait for. WKRP in Cinncinati. I used to absolutely love this show. I had read somewhere that the reason you don't see this show on Nick-at-Nite or TVLAND is because of the licensesing rights to the music. It is not cost effective. So I guess they paid a boat load of money to show these 4 episodes. Do you remember when they dropped turkeys from the plane for a thanksgiving promotion? And as the poor turkeys were plummeting to the ground they were in horror because the numbnuts thought turkeys could fly? The head of the radio stations says, "As God is my witness I thought Turkeys could fly." Trust me it was funny. It was a very much not a politically correct society then. Now PETA would be in an uproar even though it was fiction. I wish we could go back to being less politically correct dont' you? You can have humor without hurting anyone really you can. Humor people is good for the soul.
