Ok so I was going to write a Monday post about my weekend but why don’t I kill two birds with one stone? When you’re done reading all my drivel, head over to Keely’s by clicking the above ham-tastic button.
- As the title says, I went out on Saturday. It was Girls’ night and we had mediocre Mexican food which was made better by beer and tequila. Then we went to the Wine Loft which sounds pretentious but actually isn’t.
- We then went to the 5th Avenue Tap Room, which was a bar actually for people my age, surprisingly. They had a good cover band playing and it turns out the lead singer is someone I worked with at CompUSA ages ago. Kind of cool.
- I know everyone’s gonna bitch about the time change in their posts today; all I have to say is screw you, America. We’re no longer farmers; let’s abolish Daylight Savings time in ALL the states. Hoo-rah!
- If you happen to see pics of my youngest boy and notice the bumps and bruises, please don’t call DCF. He’s learning to walk and very determined. I can’t keep up with him!
- If your grocery store carries Snack Factory pretzel crisps, OMG get your hands on them and nom nom nom.
- I am turning into a total hick. I listen to my country Pandora station a lot now (interspersed by the Sinatra and Soundgarden/Tool stations). I am so diggin’ “Chicken Fried”; I don’t care if it’s ‘kuntry’.
- I eagerly await our tax return.
- FYI: I applied to about ten online jobs. Not one has sent any kind of confirmation or follow-up email. This is utterly depressing.
- We’re honestly considering getting rid of DirecTV. I mean, getting rid of all service, period. I don’t watch that much television but I do still want the option, you know?
- I would be sad if I had to find a place to watch Bones online.
- But otherwise, I’d be OK with just Netflix and dvds.
- Could you go without the television?
This week’s Man Candy I just happen to come across while looking at pics of my intended specimen, Josh Kloss. This is Derek Theler and I was more drawn to his all-American boy look. He’s been on some TV like The Hills and Cougar Town but I think I am digging the fact that he’s freaking 6’5” and ripped. Two pics today to showcase his goods. Happy Tuesday!

We’re about to get rid of our Direct TV as well. As soon as Hulu Plus comes to the Xbox, that crap is history. Although, I did call a bitch at them for raising my bill for the second time in a year and they gave me a bunch of discounts – I went from paying $72 to $44 a month, not bad. So maybe call and complain and you can get a discount.
My constant water-dropper is also almost four, hence my frustration. Grr…
Daylight Savings Time! Ugh! FTR, they do it in Europe too, but we haven’t “sprung” yet. We move forward on the 27th which just happens to be my birthday. Happy Birthday, you get one less hour of sleep.
After living with about 10 channels for the past 2.5 years, I have to say I can’t WAIT to get back to America and watch a billion channels of nothing and have TiVo again. Oh, sweet, sweet TiVo! How I miss you and your ability to pause and back up shows! Oh, they have something similar in Germany, but not for those poor American saps who live on post and want to watch American shows in English. I know they laugh as us.
Bones {heart} is available on hulu BTW, but we can only watch it when they’re being nice and letting it work in Germany. Bastards.
That’s my birthday too!
Your Girls Night Out sounds like so much fun! Especially the Wine Loft… 😉
I’m right there with you – get rid of the time change, we don’t need it any more, but we need our hour of sleep!
We got rid of our DirecTV and went back to Comcast. Though I tend to watch most of my favorites online (like Bones – I watch it on Hulu…Hulu ROCKS!) 🙂

We have Dish Network and really wish we could pick that channels we want to watch–and not pay for all the stuff we never look at–like eleventy billion sports and shopping channels. But we love the TV and it would be tough on us without it.
Nom, nom, nom man candy!
I suspect that any politician that took the platform of getting rid of DST would be immediately voted into office, no matter what their other stances are, since every mother in America would BE AT THAT VOTING PLACE to vote for them.
That model is like if James VanDerBeek and Ryan Phillipe had a baby. OMG.
I could do without TV if we had internet and Netflix.
It’s always nice to get out for the night without crayons, a diaper bag and a sippy cup! I could definitely do without TV. I could also do without Daylight Savings Time. Happy Tuesday!
I don’t think I could go w/out the telly. I mean, I’m not a couch potato by any means, but I like to sit on the sofa with my husband and watch one of the many things that has been sitting on our DVR for weeks.
Daylight savings time, on the other hand… that can go die.
This is in no particular order.
NUMMY eye candy. Thank you, I needed that drool. MMMMMM
I hate daylight savings time. Die Mofo, die!
I have neither cable or Netflix, cuz I had to cancel both and I occasionally cry, but mostly I spend a lot of time on the internet annoying cyberspace.
I do, however, miss House, and Bones, and Law & Order, and a few other shows. I hate watching tv on my PC.
Sounds like you had an awesome time! I’m supposed to go out not once but twice this weekend. For the first time in 4 years or so. I’m agoraphobic and have severe social anxiety. I’m petrified. Don’t get me wrong, I leave my house to do errands and such, but haven’t gone out socially in forever.
Gawd, I’m so freaking lame.
Hope you hear on some of those jobs soon! Good luck!
And good luck going out! Should be fun.
I have a strict policy that I won’t date anyone under 23. How old is this guy?
He’s either 24 or 25; he passes.
