Random randomness and then some tunes

"You say I'm crazy. I GOT your crazy."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I was frustrated last night. I was hoping to see a new Grey's Anatomy last night, since The Office wasn't going to be on. But no. It was a re-run. Private Practice, too. Smallville was new, thankfully, and a pretty decent episode. I like the Chloe/Davis/Clark triangle much more than the Chloe/Jimmy/Clark one. I'm upset that the writers had Chloe and Jimmy get married just to brak them up 5 episodes later, but whatever.
Of course, Smallville was on at the same time as In the Motherhood and Samantha Who?. I'm interested in In the Motherhood, but have yet to make a final decision on it. I know it's supposedly based of stories from real moms, but it seems a bit extreme. I love Samantha Who? but only watched it during Smallville's commercial breaks.

I want a DVR. Or to be able to find ALL the shows I want to watch on Hulu.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Since I wasn't watching my regularly scheduled programming last night, I flipped to E! and saw the THS of Bret Michaels. Now, I've watched every season of Rock of Love. (No judging.) About a year ago we got cable and the first season of the show was in a marathon. Anyone who's ever watched a TV show marathon-style knows it's a sure way to get hooked on the series.
So I've watched every season. But I didn't know how much I didn't know about Bret Michaels till I watch the True Hollywood Story. For example: Did you know he dated Pamela Anderson? News to me.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Have you seen those Old Navy SuperMannequin commercials? I can't stand them. First of all, the mannequins at Old Navy don't have faces. Do any mannequins have faces anymore? Secondly, isn't it weird when the one mannequin's clothes get ripped off and they censor it out? Half of me thinks that if you have to censor it, it shouldn't be a prime-time commercial. The other half thinks that it's just plastic, and they are dumb for censoring it.

In any case, it makes me not want to shop at Old Navy. Which I'm pretty sure is not what they want you to think after watching their commercials.

I'm really excited for General Conference tomorrow. You guys all had some great ideas, ones I'm anxious to try out. I think I'm going to go to the stake center for a couple of the sessions, and I actually got an e-mail yesterday from someone with packets for me to print off for the kids.

I'm going to try to take good notes, and I honestly encourage you to do the same. I get **so** much more out of the talks when I'm writing things down. Come back here and we'll discuss what we heard. I'm not sure if I'll post at the end of every session, but most likely the end of each day.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Since the "2 lies and truth" was so much fun the other day, here's another one for you:

1. I teared up watching Horton Hears a Who for the first time today.
2. I opened our bedroom window last night even though it was like 35 degrees outside, just to listen to and smell the rain.
3. I thouroughly enjoyed the playdate I went to today. It wasn't lame at all!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And finally, 10 random tracks from pretty much the best playlist ever. (Or so I've been told.)

1. She's Every Woman -- Garth Brooks
2. Smooth -- Carlso Santana
3. Never Think -- Rob Pattinson
4. Billie Jean -- David Cook
5. Roll to Me -- Del Amitri
6. Time After Time -- Eva Cassidy
7. I Walk the Line -- Chris Daughtry
8. Put Your Records On -- Corinne Bailey Rae
9. Mad World -- Gary Jules
10. Streetcorner Symphony -- Rob Thomas

I really can't stand the commercial where the finger breaks off one and the other one breaks its finger and gives it to her.....weird!

BTW...any playlist that includes David Cook is pretty much awesomelicious!

BTW#2...did you get your shot before watching each season of Rock of Love?...if not...you might want to get tested...LOL!

I like the Davis triangle better too though it does make me mad that Jimmy had to be involved at all. I sincerely hope his role on the show is over because there's only hurt ahead for him at this point.

I LOVE your blog! Who knew that Random things can be so entertaining?

(found your blog on Mormon Mommy blogs)

Did you get it from Brenda? I'm printing it off as I type this. . .

Annette Lyon said...

I'm betting the play date was totally lame.

Mother Goose said...

I have not watched most of those shows, but I did see smallville! I'm wit ya on the love triangle!

Motherboard said...

I bet the play date was lame-O!

I love Gary Jules too. I watched ER last night! I can't believe you didn't... what is wrong?? :>)

You stole my title... that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy! :) We should do lunch again!

AAACCK!! I was so anxious to see Private Practice after that hot steamy kiss between Adison and the cute doctor/patient's husband dude (who I can't remember his name--Noah?).

And what's going to happen now to Izzy? And the Irish looking dude who strangles people in his sleep?!!

How can they leave us hanging like that?!

Apparently I only identify with the women on these shows, since I can't remember any of they guys' names.

p.s. I'm guessing your #3 is the lie. Play groups are never fun. Unless it's a play group where you go to lunch with a bunch of ladies your love...and you leave your kiddies home with the hubs.

I am so looking forward to conference too. Play dates are cool. I love sleeping with the window open, cold air pouring and and heavy blankets around me. m

#3 is the lie. I'm sensing a lot of sarcasm there. Please share.


Love my DVR. I don't think I could survive without one now.


Yay for Conference weekend!


And I'm really hoping you win my giveaway.

I hadn't thought about the Old Navy adds that way before. Thank you for opening my eyes. : )

Ugh, I hate those Old Navy commercials too. And I like the store, but NOT the commercials. And you already know I love my DVR to pieces. But I was frustrated tonight because since Idol went overtime I completely missed Adam's ENTIRE performance, and he's my favorite! It cut off during the commercials before he even came on. So that made me wish I had watched it live and not an hour later on my DVR, because I missed the ending! Frustrating!!!
