sports abound

Sorry for the lack of interesting (or any) tv posts lately - it's been a very busy sports filled week. The Yankees sweep the Red Sox and I was at 2 of 3 of those games, the first of which was highlighted by extracurricular entertainment in the form of squirrel atop the foul pole near my seats - the squirrel is famous, it even made it onto the back cover of the Daily News the next day!




















I don't have much else to report, other than the fact that I think Jessica and Eric are totally adorable, though I very much question Eric's decision not to use the Power of Veto.

Well, off to start my extra long weekend which will start tomorrow (yay for a day off from work!) in the form of a trip to the aquarium with the kids and then shopping at the outlets! And so I shall return along with Big Brother at the end of the weekend. Happy Labor Day!

big girls don't cry

Another season of The Hills is back and oh how I've missed my MTV! This season, Lauren and Heidi's friendship is in the gutter, Heidi's too busy playing house with Spencer to care and Lauren is now rommies with Audrina, whose boyfriend is some weirdo named Justin. And the drama! There's lots of drama and lots of cat fighting and lots of everyone being upset about the fights but too stubborn to cry about it. Good times.

pink!

Yes! Finally, proof that my obsession with pink is scientific!

Justice is served.

beer pong!

Big Brother won my heart this week by revolving the episode and mainly the food competition around my favorite drinking pasttime - beer pong! Oh, how I miss my college days thinking about the fun of beer pong... seems like just last month that I played. Wait, was that last month? No, no, it wasn't... I think it's been a solid 5 or 6 months since my last game of beer pong. heehee. In any case, Danielle is HoH AGAIN and I think it is very, very dangerous for Jessica and Eric to be aligning themselves with Danielle and Dick, but we shall see how this plays out. I sense that Jen has at long last worn out her welcome, so is it possible that after weeks of flip flopping, she finally goes home?

We're getting close to entering a difficult month for me... the overlap month of regular season football colliding with the last month of regular season baseball... and thus there goes any chance of me doing anthing but watching sports and following the pennant race very, very closely. Bye-bye social life!

ahh...friday!

It's been a long week filled with crazy things at work, outings after work, storms, tornadoes and long commutes and so nobody is happier than I am to be home in pajamas on this chilly friday night parked on my couch in front of the tv. The very busy week also means that I haven't had much time for tv, BUT I have managed to keep up with Big Brother because that show is SO entertaining and I would just like to say that I am ecstatic that Jessica won Head of Household and especially that it happened so brilliantly. Genius! It's fabulous tv - get on it!

Burning in the Bronx

Burning hot that is... that's what it was today at Yankee Stadium. And when I got home I discovered I may have gotten myself a nice little sunburn. oops.

Speaking of burning, I continued watching The Bronx is Burning tonight when I got home. I gotta say, I'm not all that enthralled with this miniseries - the book was WAY better, so read it!

More entertaining to watch is Big Brother. And if you have SHO, on Showtime Too every night from minight to 3 AM there is a live feed called Big Brother: After Dark!
