TV

Ok so I am one to watch TV for sure ....

I started with Sesame Street I love it and will always love it.. I watched "Captain Kangaroo" "Electric Company" "David and Goliath" I loved cartoons.........I stuck with that until sitcoms came about I remember when I was a teenager my fav shows were "Cosby Show" and "The Fresh Prince" I couldn't get enough of them. Still now I love to watch re-runs of Fresh Prince and have passed this love onto my son, Blake.
I moved up a notch as the need for social drama came into my life watching "90210" and 'Melrose Place" and that wasn't enough for me I got sucked into "Jerry Springer" "Montel" "Maury Povich" "Jenny Jones" all the crazy shows. Oh how I loved screaming at the TV ... You know you cheated on her!!!....of course that's your baby!!! It was great diving into a life that was not yours to get some DRAMA and Chaos. After you heard the same thing over and over again...the Drama and Chaos soon became a headache ...I began to think ...Oh my gosh...why? Why are these people living the life they are...and none the less showing the whole world. It didn't seem as fascinating to me anymore. So no more crazy talk shows for me.
I moved onto more serious drama like "X files "and "ER" "Sex in the City" now this got me thinking a little bit more but not much ...I still got a little bit of the dysfunctional relationships and some mystery or suspense as well. Now I watch "Lipstick Jungle" it is a show supposed to be similar to"Sex in the City" but ...Nothing will or can replace "Sex in the City" hahaa
Hmm what about sitcoms ....I did watch "That 70's show" which I love to watch reruns when I catch them Now the only one is "Samantha Who?" I love this show it's 30 min long 15min if you have it TIVO'd and run through the commercials .
Then there is REALITY TV ...Oh how soon I am sucked into this.. The "REAL WORLD" had to be my first ...it was the buzz ...these were not actors so of course all of it had to be true ...you just saw this cameraman following them around so how could it not be hahaha...It was great I watched them all good and bad "Temptation Island" "Who wants to Marry A Millionaire" "Married by America" "Survivor" "Fear Factor" "American Idol"and so many more I can't remember ...Reality TV expanded into everything cooking, singing, sports, weight loss, parenting, marriage, home decor, wardrobes, shopping, buying a house, ....whatever it is there is a show or soon will be a show for it. I am totally consumed with Reality TV ....I love it! The shows have it all DRAMA, CHAOS, SUSPENSE, MYSTERY ...tricks of the trade and some learning tools too!!!
The all fit into your life someway ...You want a show your captivated by for 6-12 weeks fine watch "American Idol" or " Dancing with the Stars" ....do you want a quick final result watch "10 years Younger"or " What not to Wear"

I guess I have a well rounded selection of TV in my life hahaha

I support some networks more than others ...umm like HGTV
...I wish some shows would have never ended ummm like "Sex in the City" my all time favorite and some shows I'm looking forward to watching like "Blush" on Lifetime ...a realty show about make artists

I Tivo all my shows so who knows what channel or Network its on ....or even what time they air ....How in the world did I survive without this awesome invention hahahaha

What I'm watching now....
Samantha Who
House Hunters
Find your Style
Design on a Dime
Myles of Style
Lipstick Jungle
Secrets Lives of Women
First 48hrs
Beyond the Box
What Not to Wear

Memories of sleep

When I was younger I remember my friend spending the night and the next morning waking up to them staring at my face.... waiting for me to wake up. They would be rummaging through my yearbooks and picture albums for hours waiting for me to finally get up

When Blake was just a newborn ...he slept with me in the "family bed" bed so there were not many sleepless nights. He just snuggled right into me until the next feeding...then poof right back to bed.


Today... I get up to go to work at 6:30am hitting the snooze button at few times till it's 7am. I stumble into the shower for 15 or so mins then drag myself out to get ready. I think ....Thank God I wear a hat to work so I don't have to take the time to " Tame the Mane". I go downstairs look at the clock it's 7:30am ...No time for coffee, I will get it on the road. Stop at the Ingels Quick Mart for coffee...YUCK! never again. By this time it's 7:40am and I'm starting to think I maybe late to work ....Thinking again in my CA mentality...that the traffic might hold me up. I get to work at 7:50am just in time and 10min before the Mgr.

Work was good today got there at 7:50 -off by 11:45am ....My kind of day!

So why am I so tired that I fall asleep while watching a movie on the couch for some 2 1/2 hrs
Is it because I didn't go to bed until 12:30am??? Maybe ....It was relaxing so I can't complain
so now I'm here pecking at keys wiping the sleep from eyes. I guess it's time to start my day at 4:19pm

Ok up and running...well up and trotting

I think I'm getting the hang of some of these features...A lot more to play around with

I am the turtle in the world of computers....

So What is this?

So what is this? Is it the bitch fit area? DO I need an appt? Do you really want to know?

These are the ?'s I ponder about as I click here and there ...trying to figure this out

Is this where I was just 10min ago ...Is this even the same addy I was 10min ago

So lost in a world of buttons, click, screens, pixels

Oh what a world what a world.....

And the drama momma award goes to.....ME!
