Bored

This place is a wreck.

There's a storm coming.

I've worked 21 hours out of the last 48.

The only thing on TW is 48 Hours Mystery....or 48 Hours Crime.....or 48 Hours No One Cares.

Somebody needs a nap.

Or a cocktail and then a nap.

ZZZZZzzzzzzzzzz.........

Reality Bites

OMG.....I'm watching the reality dog show and it totally rocks. I'm all, "Go Bella Starlet, you can do it!!"

It has all the plot elements; drama, suspense, comedy, intrigue and well, cat fights....somebody goes to the Dog House and at the end of the show, the loser and their pup get expelled from Canine Academy.

It's Best In Show in a parallel universe.

Big Brother

Jesus there's nothing to watch on TV this summer. Usually I watch all the junk I elected not to watch during the fall; but with the short season because of the strike and my limited viewing options, well, there's pretty much nuthin on but one reality show after another. What's up with that? In America where the national pastime is denial?

So what's the point of Big Brother? What do all those people do in that house all day? And more importantly, why does anyone care enough to watch them bicker and sneak around for an hour a week?

Am I missing something or is it really absolutely pointless?

Mountain

We went to The Mountain today. I slapped a twenty in my favorite quarter chili pepper machine and played on it for over an hour. It was glorious....up to over $40 on at least three separate occasions....down to less than $5 a couple times. I felt sure the big score was upon me, so when I finally got down to only two plays left, I put another twenty in it.

Turns out I might as well have run right over to the cage with that twenty and handed it directly to the cashier.

The third twenty went in painfully; while watching it dwindle, I got a couple hits and got my bank up to $25. So I cashed out and implemented Plan B.

I bought a WV Powerball tic on the way out.

Dig

My son is home for about ten minutes this weekend.

Dig it.

It don't get no better.
