dumb

dumb
Today was a bad day. There isn't just one thing that sticks out...it's just the culmination of a lot of bad things going on at work. (And because I've taken a blogging oath not to discuss specifics about work, I'll just continue to be vague.) Let's just say that things aren't all rainbows and puppy dogs at the office anymore. Not sure if they will ever be again. I got to work at 730 this morning. 730AM!!! What the hell is wrong with me? Ugh. I digress. Anyway, the point of all of this rambling is that why, after spending so many hours at my desk in the office, do I feel compelled to get back in front of a computer at home? I must secretly love the idea of carpal tunnel syndrome and constant neck tension. Who knows why I do dumb things like this? I mean is it all to read the celebrity gossip sites? Which leads me to wonder....why do I care that much about celebrities? Damn I need help. So instead of talking about the fact that Britney Spears made a very brief court appearance, I'll talk about the latest international news....German experts say they have identified the true identity of the one and only Mona Lisa.

And because I'm on some strange stream of consiousness right now, I'll continue with my random thoughts...Can you imagine being the one to discover who she really was? What must that feel like? I guess it ranks pretty far up the list. I wouldn't know anything about that. I get excited about saving $40 in Ottumwa! So clearly, something this earth shattering would probably send me into the stratosphere. Clearly I need a life. Heck, a hobby would be good. And on that note, I'll call it a night.
Sweet dreams.

ps. and because i'm especially dumb tonight, i posted this whole thing on the wrong blog! yeah me!

new fall shows

So I haven't said anything about the new fall season as of yet. I have a few favorites....actually quite a few. That list includes both old favorites as well as new ones. I won't go into great detail, but here's a quick run down of the shows that you should be watching....if you're not...
Let's start on Monday:

Chuck

Okay, so it started out that the whole reason I watched this show was because I actually saw Zachary Levi, Chuck, in NYC back in May. Aside from the fact that in person he is flawlessly gorgeous, this show is actually very sweet. His character is completely endearing and well, his smile just sucks you in.

Next is- drum roll please....Heroes...

Let me start by prefacing this with .... yes it's seen abysmal ratings so far this season, but that doesn't mean the show is without it's shining moments. Maybe I'm one of a few true...loyal fans, but I still adore this show and have faith that it will pull through the difficult times a stronger more revered program. I guess barring the writers' strike, only time will tell.

How I Met Your Mother

This show is truly a diamond in the rough. The ensemble cast is stellar and Neil Patrick Harris might be the biggest surprise success story actor of our generation. As Barney, the womanizing best friend, he is lovable, huggable, and downright detestable. God bless Barney.

The Big Bang Theory...yes, it's totally cliche...nerd loves hot girl neighbor. Somehow, it totally works. And now, I'm completely hooked.

Life...oh boy....how I love this show!!! Two words: Damian Lewis.

Hotel Babylon (which is on BBC America and if I have not mentioned is hot!!!)

This was a book...a dirty little read turned dirty little tv show. Two thumbs up.

The usual Office...Scrubs...and this year's new favorite....30 Rock...

This may be THE funniest show on all of television. What it lacks on publicity, it makes up for in its jokes. Alec Baldwin, aside from his irritating personal life, has the best comedic timing of anyone currently on a 30 minute primetime comedy. If you haven't sat down to watch this show, then you haven't laughed enough this year. Watch it. Trust me. You won't be disappointed.

Sticking with Thursday nights....add Ugly Betty to the list. I cannot put my finger on what it is about this show, but I love it. I tivo the hell out of it and savor it like a fine wine.....god it is that good.

And finally, Friday Night Lights. This may be one of those few shows that comes along where the critics love it, viewers adore it, and it gets cancelled before you know it. It's flawless, it's fierce, and it just may be the best show you aren't watching. If you want to feel like good things can happen to kids in high school (even though they are still dealing with the craziest crap you've ever heard), then this is the show for you. Not to mention the fact that the cast is hands down the best looking cast currently on any one tv show at the moment. Seriously, study this picture and find one flaw with it. Yeap, not happening, right? That's what I thought.

So there you have it....I watch too much television...don't read enough....and am a happy happy girl because of it. Go my friends....watch these fine shows. Soak it in. Laugh, cry, enjoy.

I want a full report in the morning.
