If you read this blog chances are you read my "main" family blog and know what a bad blogger I've been. Times 3. But I've also been a bad television viewer. I'm far behind and watch sporadically - making it hard to blog about what I'm watching so this will be pretty random.
.
Brothers & Sisters - Even with the gimmick of the big "death" (Sorry, I don't feel like Robert's heart stopping for a few seconds counts as a death), I still LOVE this show!
.
Amazing Race - I very rarely like the young couples on Amazing Race but I was sad to see the young couple go (you remember the couple that were NICE to each other? I kind of have no opinions of who I want to win from the remaining teams. I would kind of like to see the siblings go home (only because of the brother half). I can tell you that I will NEVER go on this show due to the fact that I am scared of heights and there is a big chance I'd have to face this fear. I'm okay with being scared of heights for the rest of my life, no need to face it.
Dancing with the Stars/American Idol - Combined because we just kind of catch these shows whenever. No need for gasps. They are on ALL the time, chances are when we turn the television on, I'll see a. someone with a microphone b. someone with a spray on tan with a skimpy outfit or c. judges. BUT I'm rooting for Melissa on DWTS of course because I did invest lots of time over the past couple of months to...
.
The Bachelor - I know so many of you are all "I'm never watching The Bachelor again". I won't say it and I never have because there is no way I could ever NOT watch. Two things that make it even more fun to watch 1. Playing a game by ranking the "contestants" and 2. Facebook - people I would have never guessed watch this show updated their status talking about Jason and the show, instantly "Jason Mesnick is a (well, you can imagine some of the things that went here" groups were formed and if you check out Lexicon on FB, there is a huge spike of "Bachelor" and "Jason" on March 2nd. (I actually typed this out a couple of weeks ago and am editing it, but thought I'd leave this on it).
.
Lost - I love it. I don't care if it makes my head spin.
.
Chuck - WATCH THIS SHOW! You aren't listening to me people and it they might cancel it all because of you. Just like they did...
.
Pushing Daisies - Someday they'll put the finale on and hopefully they were able to give it a proper send off. I don't like how they cancel shows where they can't tie up loose ends.
.
Fringe - Somewhere along the way this show grew on me but it hasn't been on in FOREVER! I did see some sneak peek photos on Facebook so I know they are still filming.
.
Friday Night Lights = 2 more seasons Woo Hoo!
.
That's it for now. Maybe I'll post about some of the other shows I'm watching in the next few days...

"Hi From Bob"
My friend Cindy is at a meeting in KC for work and surprised me with this little picture today: Love him and that show!
Also, how bad have I been about posting on this site? Please check out my other blog - baby Leighton is getting a heart transplant and is needing prayers. Also the second post is an article I wrote on CF and Mackenzie.

Game On!
If there was a way to play a game with every single show I watched I would - because it makes it so much more fun! Even though I'm starting out losing - I'm having a great time.
Diane - after past performances in the game, I'm glad to see you winning! Click on the picture to enlarge it. I've left a few comments below - leave any comments you had about the show and don't forget to go to Lincee's Recap when it's up and Chris' Blog!
UPDATE: Can we please get more Chris Harrison?! From his blog: "So wait a minute. Our little Jason, quiet, little shy Jason got four kisses in one week. Well played, sir...well played! I mean how dare you, sir, how dare you!"Just a few thoughts on the show last night - the slow motion removal of the shirt was cracking me up!
A few of the girls I didn't have much of an opinion of last week I really like. A few of the girls I didn't like at all last week, I like even less this week.
Natalie reminds me so much of Tina Fabulous.
When Jason was talking to Nikki the night of the rose ceremony was he referring to her personality or her chest when he said "You've got amazing qualities and they're obvious".
Previews for next week - I teared up a bit when Stephanie saw Sophia on the beach!

See Ya!
I've been so bad about posting on this blog! Most of the few of you that actually read this don't watch this show but I still have to say...
I was so glad to see Kelly and Christy go last night on The Amazing Race!! I hope this couple is the next to go (I like Sarah, but Terence - not so much!)

99 Balloons
A shortened version of this was on Oprah yesterday and I cried right along with Oprah and Celine Dion...after the commercial break I was surprised to see the family lives in Fayetteville. They are doing a follow up on the live show Friday.

The Office
I so enjoyed last night! If you do not watch this show, WHY NOT?? I have the first three seasons (and need to buy the fourth) if you want to give it a chance - you will not be disappointed. Just let me know...Funny thing is - Jason's boss has the first two seasons so I'd have to get them back from her!
I can't pick a favorite part from last night, too many!
I also left a long comment on my last post to let Mitzi know Lindsay did the header and to tell Terri all about Fringe (how the first episode was kind of freaky scary, the second episode was VERY freaky scary...9 month gestation period in a matter of minutes freaky scary, and the third episode not freaky scary at all really), but I don't know what happened to it.

National Rev Up the DVR Week
YAY - Fringe wasn't as creepy last night so it's still in the rotation. Probably would keep it even if it was creepy because Joshua Jackson does 'dripping with sarcasm' so well.
One more day...
I seriously looked for a countdown ticker for The Office yesterday - I think I'm most excited for it to return. I'm excited about Grey's (previews have been good) and Survivor (especially since it will be in HD). Thursday night is going to be fantastic! Here's a little The Office Flair in closing...

Well, week one of new television has come and gone and unfortunately I was so busy last week I feel like I only half watched everything!

Saturday Night Live I almost forgot! SNL back on Saturday night hosted by Michael Phelps! Can't wait! One of my favorite hosts was Peyton Manning - he did such a great job, I hope Michael does too.
What have you thought so far? Are you going to watch that human tetris show?
I'm so excited! I'm having lunch with Jen and Traci this week! Jen and I have been reading each other's blogs through our mutual friend Traci's. I've also decided Jen is my TV Twin.

Chuck
The first season of Chuck comes out on DVD on September 16. The first episode of this season comes on September 29. Do the math! That gives you almost two weeks to catch up! Are you still sitting there? Go preorder now.
This show has what I like in a movie - a little of everything - comedy, action, romance. It also has that love triangle girl from What About Brian? and lots of fun guest stars.
I remember talking about this show at the beginning of last season to a non-television watching friend and she told me later she had caught it...turns out she had actually caught Pushing Daisies (with Chuck). I guess she also could have been watching Gossip Girl (with Chuck).
Now I've typed Chuck so many times it looks funny...

Olympics, Olympics, Olympics
That's all that's been on in our house (except for Army Wives). Jason probably wouldn't mind a little less (I kind of picked up on that when he insisted we watch a RERUN of Letterman last night instead of more Olympics). Between the fact that we are all interested in watching different sports and the fact that I'll watch swimming and then rewatch as I make any member of the family that missed it watch - it's been a lot. Just SOME things I've enjoyed so far:
- Michael. Phelps. Sure it seems to be all about Michael but it's well deserved - AMAZING.
- The Men's 400 Relay.
- The drummers in the Opening Ceremony. Mesmerizing like a kaleidoscope.
- That little boy walking with Yao Ming - he went back to rescue classmates after the earthquake because he was hall monitor and that was part of his job!
- China.
- Olympic venues, I am fascinated by the Cube.
- Looking for Kerri Walsh's wedding ring.
- The Office commercial with Jim's new Olympic sport.
I could go on and on, but I really need to pick up...or watch a little Olympics.

Who Is The Crazy Neighbor? (That's Me With My Hand Up)
What do I love besides my family and friends? Office supplies, television, and the internet (in no particular order). So I think it's understandable if I go a little bit crazy moving into our rental house on a Saturday and not getting cable hooked up until the next FRIDAY. So when nice Omar comes on Friday to install the cable, knocks on the door to let me know he is done and to see if I need anything else I say "no, that should be it" and I take off running (probably before the door shut) to start hooking everything up and to get everything going. First the DVR - hmmm, it's powered up, connected, and the television is on - why a black screen ? On to the computer - wait a minute, this thingy with a wire can't connect to this other thingy with a wire. I think, remain calm, I'm sure there is an easy fix to both of these problems and they can just come back and fix it. Then I remember that it took almost a week for this appointment. Unleash the crazy. I RUN outside and Omar is just rounding the corner (there is one house between us and this corner) and I start yelling (loudly) "HEY, HEY" and waving my arms. But Omar came back (told me I kind of scared him), showed me the cable box did work (I just had to move around a few cords) and gave me a connector for my other problem.
I gave him great scores on the telephone survey I completed a later that day!
So now the neighbors have two reasons to stay away from us: 1. They think I'm crazy and 2. Jason mowed until 10:30 one night...no Welcome Wagon for us.

Project Runway Recap!!
"This is Project Runway." Yes it is Heidi, yes it is! The girls are at sleepovers and Jason is mowing so I'm going to type a bit as I watch (although let me preface by saying I am NO Lincee Ray of Bachelor Recap fame, I'm not nearly as clever, funny, or witty. Also, I don't sew or know much about sewing. Bet you are dying to keep reading.).
I'm so excited. I am especially excited that they aren't having any of the casting stuff. I always end up liking or being interested in someone that doesn't make the cut.
MEET THE DESIGNERSJarell Scott, 28 - former model, had to make his own cool clothing when he moved to NY.
Blayne Walsh, 23 - Fashion designer for 6 years, loves tanning.
Joe Faris, 41 - Two girls, 5 & 9 are his main motivation.
Stella B. Zotis, 42 - Designs for rock stars, hookers and pimps. Hopes she doesn't get eliminated right away – does anyone?
Jennifer Diederich, 27 - Popped out of a spool of thread.
Kelli Martin, 27 - Started own store "Black Market".
Terri Stevens, 39 - Aerosmith, Lauryn Hill, Michael Jackson – now there is a dinner party. Really fast – she can make a three piece suit in 8 hours. (hmm…what if she had to make it out of candy wrappers, still only 8 hours?)
Jerry Tam, 32 - Actually doing very well as a designer, has his own company, is on the forefront of being a big name in the industry. He's also very modest J or they are editing him up for failure.
Suede, 37 - He has one name, he designed a lot of jeans. Tired of making millions for others, wants to make millions for Suede. Says his own name a lot.
Keith Bryce, 26 - Urban/Little Bit Rock. Apparently has bracelets with "WWHW" (What Would Heidi Wear?) Self taught designer was just "born with it". The needle in his hand had to hurt his mama when he was coming out.
Korto Momolu, 33 - Originally from Liberia West Africa, currently lives in Little Rock, Arkansas. Shout Out! Said she was going to be the second woman and first African American to win…didn't knock on wood.
Leanne Marshall, 27 – Started a clothing line that I'm going to assume is spelled Leannimal? Or maybe Leanimal? Or Leanneimal? I'll google it later. I see pleats and ruffles.
Emily Brandle, 27 - (I'm probably going to be getting the three girls with brown hair and bangs mixed up a lot). Smoke and Mirror clothing.
Daniel Feld, 25 - Inspired by nature. (The last time I took a walk through the forest I did notice the leaves on that one tree looked like playing cards.)
Wesley Nault, 23 - Young, secure, clothes are divine (his words not mine).
To the roof! Tim's great as usual, Heidi teases that the first challenge is about to start and the contestants shake hands and exchange pleasantries.Kenley Collins, 25 - Why didn't we meet her before the roof? I saw her in the background because she's one of my confusing brown hair with bangs girls. Made a BFF when she noticed Blayne's tanning and complemented his blue eyes. Print mixer.
4a.m. – Good morning Tim Gunn! Was a non-towel wearing person available to open the door?
My Unprofessional Opinion: That sleeve reminds me of Rosie O' Donnell.
Professional Opinions: Mid Range Score
Challenge Info: Drawer Liners, Shoelaces, Jump Rope & Potholders
My Unprofessional Opinion: I'm speechless. My husband should have a photo of this for when he wants peace and quiet. He could just hold it in front of me.
Professional Opinions: In with the lowest scores.
Challenge Info: Grocery Items: Oven Mitts, Fusilli Pasta, Muslin & Tomato Can Labels – "Tomato Hot Plate Spaghetti Fusilli Dress"
My Unprofessional Opinion: Turned out pretty cute, especially since no tablecloths were harmed in the making of this dress.
Professional Opinions: Mid Range Score.
Challenge Info: Garbage Bags
My Unprofessional Opinion: Maybe she had her hooker clients in mind?
Professional Opinions: In with the lowest scores. Austin wishes for something more impressive than thread. (Spaghetti?) Heidi's not impressed.
Challenge Info: Paper Towels, Lipstick
My Unprofessional Opinion: Hey, it's not a tablecloth.
Professional Opinions: Mid Range Score.
Challenge Info: Vacuum Bags, Bleach, Dye, Coffee Filters, Thumbtacks, Notebook "Pretty ugly in a great way."
My Unprofessional Opinion: I really like the thumb tack area and down, I'm not sure about the bust area.
Professional Opinions: In with the highest scores. Nina – thinks it's great. Michael thinks she pushed the envelope. WINNER.
Challenge Info: Mop Heads & Tablecloth
My Unprofessional Opinion: Terri, I shouldn't have questioned the mop heads.
Professional Opinions: Mid Range Score.
Challenge Info: Shower Curtain, Tablecloth, Gauze, Napkins & Rubber Gloves
My Unprofessional Opinion: I don't like it but I did shout at the television for him to explain his "April Showers…" theme.
Professional Opinions: In with the lowest scores. Michael - Bridal nurse? ( Night out on the town) after she left the hospital. Heidi - Hospital plumber. AUF'ED.
Challenge Info: Tablecloth & Doggie Waste Bags.
My Unprofessional Opinion: Suede's hair matches the dress.
Professional Opinions: Mid Range Score. Not boring. Heidi – Playboy Bunny gone grunge. Michael – wrestling challenge.
Challenge Info: Tablecloth, Laundry Bags, & Car Shade
My Unprofessional Opinion: More car shade, less tablecloth.
Professional Opinions: Mid Range Score.
Challenge Info: Tablecloth, Kale, Bell Peppers & Cherry Tomatoes
My Unprofessional Opinion: It's still GIANT and YELLOW. But she did use what normally goes on top of the tablecloth so points for that.
Professional Opinions: In with the highest scores. Nina- Impeccably done. Michael-Right girl in the right dress styled the right way.
Challenge Info: Tablecloth (yawn), Meringue Cookies, Coffee Filters, and Marshmallows.
My Unprofessional Opinion: The coffee filters look like giant versions of that craft you do with glue, tissue paper, and the eraser end of a pencil.
Professional Opinions: Mid Range Score.
Challenge Info: Tablecloth, Balloons, Napkins & Bouncy Ball.
My Unprofessional Opinion: Why is that piƱata attacking that models head
Professional Opinions: Mid Range Score
Daniel
Challenge Info: 260 (not 259, not 261) plastic cups & muslin. "Sweetheart Cocktail Dress".
My Unprofessional Opinion: That is pretty impressive. Imagine what he could have done with 261 plastic cups.
Professional Opinions: In with the highest scores. All the judges like it (I think maybe because there isn't a tablecloth in sight).
Challenge Info: Tablecloth, Fly Swatter & Plastic Cups
My Unprofessional Opinion: Not too much on Wesley leading up to the runway…hmmmm…..
Professional Opinions: Mid Range Score.
Challenge Info: Dodge Ball, Lawn Chair & Tablecloth
My Unprofessional Opinion: Stiff but fun.
Professional Opinions: Mid Range Score.

Sunday is the New Thursday
What night do you feel like your DVR might explode? Mine is usually Thursday. Now that it's summer, it's Sunday. Army Wives, The Next Food Network Star, Design Star, various movie for the kids...I'm so proud of it - it always keeps up!
Design Star - IT'S ABOUT TIME TRACEE WENT HOME! She can't blame it on editing. I'm sure even watching it, she still thinks nothing was ever her fault. Little sad about Mickey V. Was anyone else surprised Trish had a wedding ring? I thought for sure there was a little love connection between her and Mickey V. I really have no preference on who wins out of those that remain.
Army Wives - Please bring us more scenes where all the wives (including Roland) are together. Those are my favorites and there just haven't been enough this season. Looks like we'll have a little together time next week when the Hump Bar reopens.
The Next Food Network Star - Paula Deen, haven't you heard - if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. Did you have to tell Lisa you HATED her mac and cheese? Couldn't you have stopped at "didn't like"? I'm sad Keley is gone, I liked her...hope it's Lisa or Aaron now.

"I'm Sorry Nick"
Quote from Zulema Griffin on Season 2, Episode 8 of Project Runway after she requested the model "walk off" (how Zoolander of her!) and stole Nick's model.

Also, EW.com has a fun gallery of past Bachelor/Bachelorette couples with a little write up of the last two "contestants"...let the memories begin HERE.
