Happy Friday!!!

Good morning darlings!! Hope your Friday is treating you well!! Something about Friday just makes me happy. It's the sheer knowledge that I won't be here tomorrow that puts a smile on my face and some pep in my step. So, Alexis doesn't need to provide me with my necessary mojo today...

So, last night I was sitting on my couch eating my 1 point soup when Nelson just lifted his little leg and peed... while staring right at me. I think I even caught a smirk on his face. Little Bastard! He is SOOOO lucky he's cute! So I did my best to punish him because I was furious about this. The problem is that when I punish 1 dog the other 2 go into a panic thinking they're in trouble too. Thatcher starts smiling, Reagan starts barking, and its all out pandemonium. I eventually made Nelson go on the back porch as punishment. I know this doesn't sound bad, but it was really cold and dark and the little man gets scared. I felt bad after about it after about 5 minutes but held out until the 10 minute mark. Then we had a discussion where I attempted to explain that "mommy isn't doing this because I don't love you... mommy is doing this because I do." I think he missed the point entirely and was just happy to be inside. But the nerve of this 11 pound little menace to just throw his leg up and pee while I was looking at him still makes me irate. If I had the money I would invest in some of these gadgets they have where they claim you can talk to your dog and then understand what your dog is saying. I already have a pretty good idea of what mine are saying, and I'm pretty sure it involves a detailed plan to drive mommy mad.

Anyway, so there is apparently some sort of conspiracy out there that Katie Holmes did not actually run the New York City Marathon in it's entirety. I am not sure how one gets to the bottom of this, so I am asking my friend Erin to click on this link and specifically look at some of the comments, since she is the only person I know who has actually run this marathon. This is quite the conspiracy I learned last night, and while I clicked on several links from this link, I just couldn't decipher the "technological chip" and "split time" lingo they were throwing around. Sounds like a fun little conspiracy theory, though. This of course is coming from an SP (Suppressive Person). Ha Ha!!

Also read where Brody Jenner denied making out with Paris Hilton and then said that he did have a girlfriend, and "NO her name is not Lauren Conrad" -does he have to be so rude about it?? I don't want to have to remove him from my "list" but if he starts being mean to Lauren I won't have a choice!

A new entry into the Dad's Hall of Shame occurred when a man physically forced his son to wear a Packers Jersey last weekend by tying him down and taping him to a chair. To the kids mom who turned the dad in, and to this little boy I say... GO GIANTS!!

It appears that a Nevada Judge dismissed the lawsuit that would have prevented participation in the Nevada Caucuses. THANK GOODNESS!! This means that even if Obama loses, he will have lost fairly. This news apparently upset ole Billy a little as he went off on a reporter about it. Also before you click on that link, please note that because the Caucuses that are held in this particular county which contains Las Vegas have significantly more people in it, they are given additional points for their Caucus winner. They are given 5 extra points for their candidate of choice. This is, of course, because they outnumber those participating in the more rural Nevada counties 5 to 1. Makes sense, and was no problem at all before. I'd like to again note that all parties were gung-ho for these Casino Caucuses before one candidate was endorsed by the Union containing the majority of the workers who would be participating, and then the lawsuit came about to prevent their participation. You gotta love them politics!!

So, has anybody else out there seen that show on A & E called "Paranormal State"? Well it is simply the most frightening show on television. I watched the first episode with Brad and then haven't been able to get the nerve up to watch anymore of them. I am literally petrified to watch anymore of them. The one I saw was about a little boy and it was like the 6th Sense for real. I've got goose bumps even thinking about it!!!

What a great idea to have Lindsay Lohan serve 2 days of community service at a morgue!! Wonder if she could bring Britney along for the life lesson??

OK... SO I SAVED THE ABSOLUTE BEST FOR LAST!! Now, nobody go and get your hopes up, but it appears that the writers may have reached a "tentative" agreement and may begin writing again soon!! This of course, means that I will live after all!!! HIP HIP HOORAY!!!!!

As a total BONUS, my movie comes out today!! Now even though this is truly my story on film, I was sadly unable to attend the premiere, but am definitely going to see this over the weekend and am SO excited!!!

I couldn't step on the scale this morning, so I will post my week 2 results either after my lunch break or after work!! Talk to you then sweet-peas!!

ON A LIGHTER NOTE, LETS TALK HOLLYWOOD!!

Okay I am sure that y'all know this already, but it's just news I can't handle... SERIOUSLY!! Tonight, at 9:00 pm the VERY LAST new episode of this show will be aired. Not ONLY does that mean that the writer's strike has to end, but then we have to wait for the new episodes to actually BE filmed!!



In addition, I heard from my Husband Vinnie Chase that my VERY favorite show may not be back at all if the strike doesn't end soon!! Are these people totally unaware that they are ruining my life?? I am a single girl with no kids, no dating life to speak of and a healthy obsession for my beloved television shows! So, to the writers and whoever they are striking against I ask... "WHAT ABOUT ME DAMMIT!?! WHAT ABOUT ME?!?!"



At least I am also a Reality TV junkie and my favorite shows in this genre are not only undisturbed, but several are coming back on significantly quicker than they would otherwise!! There is, of course, my favorite of them all that sadly only has a few episodes left. But Thank GOD that this starts this month, to be followed by this and this in February!! I might live after all!! If only This, my other absolute favorite, would come back with it's Paris plus some episodes, I could be sure of it!!



...So, while we are on "favorites", I thought I would share some of mine with you (aren't you just brimming with excitement!!). First up are my absolute favorite female trendsetters and celebrities in Hollywood. They are, in no particular order I might add:

So, there you have it... my glorious lists!! Glad to have that off my chest :-)




ALRIGHTY THEN!! So after pausing, saving & actually accidentally posting this post prematurely- all in an effort to STOP what I was doing to watch the Grey's final new episode... all I can say is that it was so sinfully good that I fell asleep right after and just now awoke to finish what I started on here. But I have a question here about Grey's people...



who the hell is "rose"??



"Rose" the Nurse... where did she come from, why is she stealing Meredith's Mojo, and why GOOD LORD WHY is McDreamy interested in a "Sela Ward circa mid-1990's lookalike"??



We need no more entries into the Seattle Grace drama arena. We like who we have already, thank you very much!! It was bad enough when "Ava" or whatever the hell her name was kept coming back, but now we have a "Rose". Two names I CANNOT stand in the first place, but more importantly two Grey's additions I consider totally lame. Maybe the writer's strike actually happened before we knew about it!!



Okay, so now on to the trainwrecks of Tinsel Town!! FUN FUN FUN!! It was bad enough when Jamie Lynn turned up preggo, but now This crazy woman is too? And rumor has it that she is also pregnant, although she may be slightly sane. When I found out about this celebrity pregnancy earlier in the week I considered it a GREAT thing, as my boy will surely make some damn beautiful offspring...



Speaking of that couple, I know we have all been-there-done-that with her ex's proven insanity, idiocracy, and the brainwashing of his formerly likable wife. Suri is actually quite cute though she looks JUST like her Momma leaving me to wonder if this story could be true... SPOOKY!!! But back to the formerly likable wife bit... WHATUP with her making this movie that nobody will go see?? I can't believe he let her out of the house to make the movie to begin with, especially when the combined forces of this awesome actress and this fabulous one could have tag-teamed her and had an intervention...



OOPS..MY BAD, LOOKS LIKE TOMMY HAD THAT ONE COVERED ALREADY!!



Now onto the FAB movies, and all I have to say is HOORAY FOR HOLLYWOOD Y'ALL!! I know that one of you stole my story, increased the number by 10 and sold it to make this new movie about my life!! But, I don't care who did it, I'm just super-excited to watch my life on film, with this rockstar playing me!! YAY!!! Here's a cute little shot from the film's premiere, and a fun little preview to get your juices going since it doesn't open for a few more weeks...

That's all I got from Hollywood today folks!! But back in the real world, I would just to throw in how un-fun it is to be an adult instead of a kid when it comes to parental vacations that until I turned 18 I used to be invited to. Now I'm out. That sucks! Especially since my parents have gone on some amazing vacations since then, including to here, here, here, here, here and here... and those are just the ones I remember!!




But earlier this week on my Mom's 58th Birthday, she woke up to view of this...

While her beloved first born woke up to a view of this...

BEING A GROWN-UP SUCKS!!! BUT I DO SO LOVE ALL OF YOU, MY ADULT FRIENDS... JUST DON'T SEND ME A POSTCARD FROM YOUR FABULOUS VACATIONS :-)

PS- HOW IN THE WORLD DID THE PAPS MISS THIS, ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING THAT ONE OF THEM IS HER NEW BOYFRIEND?? I WAS HOPING THAT MY FRIEND RAVEN WOULD RUN INTO HER AND CONDUCT A GOOD OLE' SOUTHERN INTERVENTION ON HER WHEN SHE GOES TO LA SOON, BUT APPARENTLY BRIT-BRIT HAS FLED THE COUNTRY!! MY GIRL IS HANGIN' BY A SINGLE THREAD OF SANITY THESE DAYS... HOPE SHE MAKES IT BACK ALIVE!!!




YOWZA!! IN THE TIME IT HAS TAKEN ME TO WRITE THIS BLOG THIS HAS HAPPENED... NO WONDER THERE IS A DAILY BRITNEY-WATCH!! :-)


**Also before I continue to leave you wondering, I did NOT step on the scale yet... but technically it's early D-DAY as we speak. So, I am going to go back to bed in the hopes of losing weight in my sleep :-0 and will be back later today to let you know the results of my first Weight Watcher weigh in!! Wish me luck!!
