AAAAARGH!

We are watching our Tivo’d Heroes. My jaw si still agape with the revelation in this episode.

Damn Dishnetwork! The show stopped all of a sudden. It didn’t record the whole episode. I think, and hope, it only missed the last couple of minutes. When will this episode be online?

Personal Trainer – Day 1

I worked out with a personal trainer yesterday. The last time I set foot in the gym was in December. Yes, it took me that long to peel my butt off the couch.

I have been gone so long, I didn’t even know my trainer left. Oh, well. I was not that happy with him anyway. My new trainer is cool.

It’s getting to that time of year. I need to have tone a butt and legs for when the UPS guy sees me running out of the office to get some pants on before I open the door.

Pop and Lock

I went to my first Hip Hop dance class tonight. Wow, I have no rythym. I am going back though. I figure with enough classes talent might rub off on me. At one point a 70 year old woman came into the class. Hmm. I wasn’t paying attention to her. I couldn’t get my feet to mind my brain. I looked up at some point and she was gone. Maybe she was more of a Heavy Metal person than Hip Hop.

Apprentice Finale

SPOILERS AHEAD

We are watching our Tivo’d Apprentice Finale. We are trying not to FF to the end as I am so tired of listening to Trump.

Poor Frankie. He is not a good speaker.

Frankie just got fired because he hired Surya.

Nicole just got fired for her office romance with Tim.

James just got fired for wearing too much makeup. Just kidding. James should get hired just ‘cuz his kid is hella cute.

Ok. Decision time.

James just got fired.

I liked Stephanie from the start, but I still feel bad for James. Congrats to Stephanie!

24: Season 3 – Not a happy-go-lucky show

SPOILERS AHEAD

24 is not a happy-go-lucky show. We ae watching Season 3 and Jack is about to shoot Chappelle in the head. The terrorist wanted Chappelle dead or he would release the virus. Chapelle is an a**h*le but he doesn’t deserve to die. The actor must have asked for a raise. I can’t stand to watch this show anymore.

24: Season 3 – Jack Bauer is an idiot

SPOILERS AHEAD

Nina Myers is back. She’s like a cockroach. Jack has chance after chance to kill her and he doesn’t. He allows her to convince him that she “just wants to help.” What’s the saying? Trick me once, shame on you. Trick me twice, shame on me. Trick me three times, I’m a waste of skin? I can’t stand this. It’s like putting your enemy in a tank to be killed by sharks with lasers instead of just SHOOTING him.

DY-NO-MITE!

I was listening to this story on NPR about how these small paper mills in China were polluting streams and rivers. The local government would come in, shut down the mills and chain the doors. Not a few days later, the mills would be up and running again in defiance of the closure. The government has resorted to dynamiting the mills in some cases to ensure that they remain closed.

Seems severe, you say? I suppose. But perhaps it’s a solution for those Taco Bells that repeatedly have rat problems.

5 songs I love, my husband hates

Skrocki tagged me a while back with the new meme on music. It’s no excuse but I was traveling and the places I stayed charged $9/day for internet service.

Five songs or artists that I love but annoy my significant other:
1. Anything in another language. I love Cantopop from the 80′s & 90′s. My husband can’t stand it because he can’t understand it. So my daughter and I only get to partake in the car when we are alone.
2. Dixie Chicks, Not Ready to Make Nice, because I hum it when I am ignoring him.
3. Mariah Carey
4. Alanis Morisette, the emasculating one
5. Madonna

My husband is a rock, heavy metal kind of guy. So anything female or pop is frou-frou.

Tagging Scott, Jason, Rob.

Apprentice: 2nd to last episode

WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD

Oh my god! We are watching our Tivo’d Apprentice. We just got to the point where Frankie and Nicole’s team are shooting their commercial. They are going to have a mom who is visiting her kid spray Renuzit on the bum in the neighboring bed because he smelled. Nice. They are going to spray a patient because he smells. I think Frankie and Nicole are going to lose unless Stephanie and James really screw up.

My vote is for Stephanie. Next week will be “UGE”.

My kid cares about my husband’s well being, sort of

My husband and kid were taking a walk in the neighborhood today. He comes home bursting at the seams.

She said the funniest thing while we were out! What? Well, she was riding her trike and weaving around on the sidewalk. So I started walking in the street to catch her. She stops and says, “Hey, Mister. Stay out of the street. You’ll get hurt.”

Now my husband feels guilty about being called Mister. He thinks he should spend more time with our kid.
