Reality TV update

This will be quick...











DWTS- shocker that Steve O is gone, it was only a matter of time, I'm honestly getting bored with the show. BTW, Cheryl loves Gilles...too bad his wife is in the audience each week. And what in the WORLD was Chuck Wicks wearing? That shirt should be banned, it was worse than the gayest of gay ice skating outfits- it was men's lingerie, literally- I can't believe he wore it, he must LOVE Julianne!





AI- So...Scott is gone, finally! Tonight, I forsee Lil, Matt and Anoop in the bottom 3


I think Matt is gone! Danny is great as always- my top 3 picks have changed...they are now:


Danny, Allyson and Adam- but we'll see...





More to come tomorrow...


Thanks for reading

Reality TV - recap

I've been terribly behind on blogging my shows- not that anyone has missed me- but Here are some quick random thoughts on AI, DWTS etc...

1) Holly Madison and that random other chubby guy were kicked off last week- not a shocker
Holly looked terribly uncomfortable on the dance floor- for someone with such a hot bod, she sure doesn't know how to work it- guess that's what happens when you shack up with an 84 year old for 5 years...and that other guy was just ridiculous- I don't even know his name...ummm Steve Wozniak- who is he again, how is he a start? How is Holly a star? Oh yeah...as long as you can be "googled" you can be on the show! HA!

2) Last week- Megan Joy was eliminated off Idol, her number was up- it was just a matter of time, but dang, when is the blind kid going home, seriously- it pains me to watch him sing!

3) This week- DWTS was so boring, I ff on my TIVO to the end and b/c it was down to 2 people I could care less about- I didn't even watch the Dance Off- who cares right? I'm routing for Gilles, who BTW is so sexy and can really dance, go Cheryl! I'm routing for Melissa and I'm routing for Shaun- so anyone outside the top 3 (who I believe will be in the finale) can just go home, I'm bored already!

4) This week AI- guess we'll find out tonight who goes home- for the sake of entertainment, I hope the blind guy goes...whoopty doo that he got up from the piano, he cannot hold notes, I think he's only on the show for his disability and nothing against anyone who is visually impaired, but he can't sing and I wouldn't buy his record, I wouldn't even keep the radio on if his song came on...blah! (I'm just saying). My top 3 are now: Danny- my boy! (he'll probably win)...and then Adam (he's so entertaining) and then there's Allyson - that girl can sang! (not sing, but saaaang!) Lil needs to step it up a notch, not to be a "home town traitor" but she's too karaoke for me...and her style of music is not my style! But I'm still rooting for Danny! He seems like a genuinely nice guy, he's got a voice that is just so incredible and I look forward to watching his performances week after week- b/c I like him! I look forward to Adam's performances, just for shock factor to see "what is he going to do" this week.

Anyway- I have no idea who's going home tonight - time will tell...but those are my thoughts on these two shows! I am so excited LOST is on tonight! I would need a entirely separate blog just to talk about all that is going on with that show, but I'll save myself and everyone else the trouble and just read what's already "out there" on the web- I love Sawyer and Kate and they need to get back together...not a big Julie fan- but it's getting so good this season, finally - some answers!

Got to run...so much to watch and now to "read" - hopefully I'll have some more "entertainment" for you soon :)
Thanks for reading!

Twilight- can't believe how much I like it!

Ok....so for the past year, I kept hearing everyone tell me how good the Twilight series of books are...and I"m not a huge reader, I can't remember the last book I read, or even finished...I have a low attention span and I"m a TV addict, so if there aren't pictures or it's not a movie, I'm usually not one to jump on the band wagon... Ask me anything about US Weekly Magazine, People Magazine, or any TV shows and I can tell you just about anything- but it's pop culture and pictures (enough said).

Anyway, I put Twilight on our Netflix Que and actually got it the day it was released...but took about a week to sit down to watch it...so this past Saturday night, we watched it and I was surprised at how much I like it...and thought to myself, I bet the book is incredible...so I went to Borders Books on Monday and bought the book and finished the entire thing last night (Tuesday)- wow...really? over 500 pages in 2 days...that is SOOOOOO not me! I can't believe how much I am digging Edward Cullen- this book allowed me to go back to being a 17 year old girl, all over again, and reminded me of the "crush" feelings I once had in high school- amazing!
His character is so complex- and their "forbidden love" is so exciting, dangerous and honest that I can't get enough. I will admit, these books are an easy read, I was joking at work that of course I could read a 500 page book in 2 days when it's "Beverly Cleary" level writing (remember Romona Quimby books!?!?!) :) But seriously- these books are great! I'm one chapter into New Moon and can't wait to get home from work tonight to read more of it!

I'll blog more on my thoughts later...I've got to get to a meeting here at work...thanks for reading :)
