Ok- I am not crushing on this guy... I mean maybe in 7th grade, but MPG has always been a good looking guy, like here:
But, really... in his new show on TNT he looks silly. I can't take some dude with long hair seriously as a lawyer. I haven't watched the show and mostly because I think he looks silly.
There should also a sleeveless rule- I mean wow! Last night I caught a bit of the Emmy's (not the daughter, but the show where rich people give awards to other rich people and talk about how fantastic all the rich people are- and what they are wearing)
Mary Tyler Moore- talented, comedic actress- is officially of the age where she shouldn't be showing off her arms. She may be thin (way too thin) but her arms just have WAY too much movement! Maybe she is trying out for Skeletor in the next horror-ible movie!
I heart Anna Farris! She is so funny! I went to House Bunny last night with one of my friends while Mike stayed home and watched 2 football games. Highly recommend it!
***NOTE:*** Anna Farris is hosting the next SNL! Can't hardly wait.
So has anyone one heard of these X-BOX "Red Rings of Death"? I hadn't but, boy, do I know all about them now. I had played a burnt disc in Drew's x-box because it's all we have for a DVD player right now. He asked me to take it out and put his NCAA game in while he was on the phone so I did. Suddenly, three red rings around the power button went off and Drew had a melt down. He started talking about these red rings of death and pretty much just went limp on the floor while the rings kept flashing. I really wish I had taken a picture of it! Anyway, he pulled it up online and apparently, it's a real term and means something is wrong with the hardware so he has to send it in to get fixed. I guess this takes up to 4 weeks and puts everyone out for the NCAA season cuz we save everything on our hard-drive. So, tell your husbands sorry! He actually wasn't mad at me cuz I didn't do anything wrong! I do know I won't be able to play burnt discs in his x-box again. Anyway...I just thought I'd send you a warning about the "red rings of death"!!

Last year when Mike and I went to Thailand, I got eyelash extensions. I loved them. I remember looking at my newly enlongated wonders and thought to myself- "This is what I have always wanted mascara to do for my eyes!"
*Problem with eyelash extensions: 2 hours to apply and $150. Also, they eventually all fall off unless you are willing to commit yourself to the monthly maintenance visit. Once they all fall off- you are left with itsy bitsy eyelashes that enable you to finally see what you would look like should you be a little too close to the gas grill when it lights up with a healthy dose of gas built up.
I found the next best thing. My eyelashes have grown back to their original length (thank goodness!) I branched out and tried Cover Girl's Volume Exact. I had 5 people in the first week inquire if I had reapplied my eyelash extensions! That is almost as good of a compliment as: "Wow! You look great! Have you lost 90 pounds!" (or how I imagine that would feel)... anyway, I have been blessed with shockingly long eyelashes as it is, but I have a friend who is not so fortunate. I told her about my new mascara- she tried it and her eyelashes were AMAZING!
This support group is such a great idea for the wonderful wives of these crazy fantasy football fanatics! I knew the creator of this blog was Leslie even before I saw her name due to the clever and whitty writing! How is that book coming? I really think you're going to be the next J.K. Rowling. Someday you'll be able to fly us all in for these support group meetings. But until then, this will do. A wonderful pink sanctuary from the endless sights and sounds of football. Now if you've seen our blog, after five years of marriage to a sports fanatic, I've kind of come around. I enjoy a good crowd, fun game, and juicy hot dog as much as the next person but will never understand sitting in front of the television, with laptop out (fantasy football team website up), for hours and hours of football watching all players on his fantasy team rack up points as he refreshes the page to see where he stands. I'm surprised Drew doesn't have hemorrhoids! Now I must say that I support his hobbies in that I'd much rather him into sports versus many other not so wholesome activities. And it's an opportunity for me to do my own things without him all up in my grill. My complaint for today is that I have to miss the 2 hour season premier re-run of "America's Next Top Model" (aka ANTM) so Drew can glue himself to the couch for the rest of the night after already watching, what I think, is a substantial amount of football. I missed it on Wednesday so it's my last chance! Gosh I miss Tivo and room for a second TV! Anyway, that's my 2 cents for the day! Good luck to the rest of you!

Let's be honest with ourselves, ladies... football season is not at the top of our list. It may be high on our list- but not the top (our priorities may be a little more in the realm of reality with our busy lives). In fact, fantasy football season may be even lower on said list. I managed to experience 4 years of marriage with out giving up my husband to the computer, the big screen, and of course the phone between various plays that may or may not have earned him big points. In those early years, I would (with a slight roll of my eyes) watch as my husband sat at the edge of the couch during his Broncos games- jumping up and down with excitement or throwing something in frustration. But- in those days, I only committed myself to 3 hours (sometimes up to 4 as he made his mandatory calls to Chad so they could do their play by play action)... Now is a totally different story.
Fantasy has entered our life- and not the good kind where we finally live out the crazy imaginary scenarios- but the kind that gets me super grumpy by 10PM Sunday evening when I realize I have devoted 10 hours of my day to 3 different games, only to learn that I have to watch one more the next night. (And witness the constant trash talking amongst his fellow "team owners".)
S0, to combat the 18 week blues that are surely to over take me tomorrow (which I got a taste of Thursday evening) I created this blog for us ladies. Here's a place that can be our sanctuary- our place that is full of girl chat whether it be new recipes, cheap weekend date ideas, a place to drool over Chrisitan Bale (or whomever you find irresitable), a fun work out... What ever we want to chat about!
