Reality bites.
Well hubby is back — hooray.
Squirt is out with a friend — Hooray!
Silver_Fangz fell asleep on the floor in front of the TV (right in front) where she was laying in order to hear. Poor kid. I feel bad for her. Wish I could make this go away. As a mom, I just want to fix it. Aaarrrghhh….. so frustrating!
I have homework due — uh…. no hooray.
OK — is it just me or are there any other Survivor fans out there disappointed in this years show? I’m having problems getting into it. I think it’s just too — blah. They aren’t really “surviving” — they are given food — including chickens, started with a hawaiian sling to catch fish, started out being giving flint. It’s pathetic. They are living the cush life. Basically they are just camping out. The challenges are all the same and aren’t really that challenging. Maybe I’m asking for too much, but it seems like they could at least come up with some new stuff for them to do. I guess I’m just to demanding, but I want to see some uncomfortableness… not just oohhh… so and so doesn’t like me…. WAH! It’s SURVIVOR — not prom night and voting for most popular. Blech….
OK — enough ranting about the incosequential events such as reality (yeah..right) TV.
I’m off to do some real life things of my own, like laundry, dinner and homework.
Question of the day:
What would be difficult for you to do from a reality type show??

I don’t watch a of of tv. but have found one reality show I stay home for. The Bachelor. I love this show because the viewers are clued into the ‘good girls’ as well as the ‘bad girls’ and it takes patience waiting for the guy to weed out the dross. He usually ends up with one good and one bad and you wait for that final episode where he picks the one he could eventually propose to.
Your question ,what would be difficult for you to do from a reality type show would probably be one of the ‘good girls’ who has to tolerate the kniving, cut throat, nasty women who are all out for the man, while keeping my good girl-ness intact. Some of those women need their rears kicked for their stunts. LOL! However, it would also be fun to be one of the girls because the show takes them to cool places like Paris, etc…
*sigh…I love this show! If I was a guy, it might be a little hard being the bachellor and picking just one girl.
Yay for hubby being home. Sorry she isn’t feeling better faster. I know we as mom’s want to take all the pain away and make it all better and it kills us when we can’t.
Glad you got the samples and books. I really was amazed at all the new stuff.
If I get your ?? right I would say I wouldn’t be able to go on one of the make over shows where they get all cut up and stuff. I wouldn’t mind doing the Amazing Race. We haven’t even watched one episode of Survivor this time. Last years was kind of boring I thought.
I don’t much care for the reality shows. I would hate to have my life filmed anyway, but it is the editing that really sucks. They only show what makes you look the best or the worst. They can portray you any way they want. I couldn’t do it at all.
RYC: A cat day is absolutely a great idea, napping, stretching, and sitting in the sun, or curled up with a book…well, mine actually curl up ON the book I’m trying to read but we can modify some things!
I don’t watch Survivor but my son Tony (20) got me addicted to Rockstar SuperNova this year, I told him at the beginning of the season that I’d be happy as long as so and so didn’t win…. Well so and so won, think his name was Lucas, and I vowed to never watch again. LOL
:wave:
ahh… real life…
Nice to see you
Peace, Denny
I’ve watched every Survivor and I’m with you this season. I can’t get into it. Every character is like every other bland character, they don’t stand out. It does seem too cushy this year. Plus, can’t they change it up a little and go someplace that’s not an island? Do they need the younger women in bikinis for ratings?
On another note, do you actually live in Hawaii? I didn’t realize that until your comment on my site. That sounds like a lot of fun. I would definitely miss the seasons changing though. Are you there indefinitely?
i couldn’t eat gross stuff, but I could do wife swap, that would be fun
My daughter Tracy got me on hook on Big Brother this summer.
It was good.
I don’t watch the reality shows, so I can’t say. I am really glad you stopped by, and thank you for the compliment. Come gain! Ironically, my daughter-in-law (who is here for a visit-with my son and family. He’s Navy), home schools in Honolulu!
I would have a hard time not wanting to stangle ditzy people. Kinda like that one chick on survivor who thinks flirting is her numero uno asset.
I meant strangle..
yep, thats it.
Thinking on your question, and thinking of that horrible atrocity called Fear Factor, I could never eat gross things. Bulls testicles, live magnet and raw squid spleen are not my idea of a good meal. :whocares:
I’ve watched every Survivor too…it’s like a soap opera this seems like. I have night class on Thursday’s this semester & I missed it this week. So I watched it online, it seems like the same old stuff. And what is up with all the skinny girls & good looking guys…geezz! Get some REAL people on there! LOL!
Hope your weekend was good and that SF is feeling better
Dallana, i think thats how you spell it. I liked her too. anyway talk to you when i get home,have a great night.
