I suppose it stems from the fact that I’m house shopping myself. I usually tend to drift towards shows that are paralleling my own life. When I was pregnant I couldn’t get enough of “A Baby’s Story” on TLC. God, it was scary. Scary, but fascinating. When I was selling my house I watched “Designed To Sell” over and over and over. Thank goodness it’s been on so long – there were tons of episodes!
In addition to house hunting shows I have become addicted to the “crime procedural” show. Specifically, NCIS and NCIS LA. When I was in the Navy I shied away from NCIS. Not sure why, maybe I just didn’t want to be reminded of work when I was at home. Now, I have changed my tune. I try and catch both shows on Tuesday night. Have you seen NCIS LA? If not, you should. Especially because of this guy:
And to a lesser extent, this guy:
Yeah. Totally worth watching.
Heck, I even like the psychologist dude (the guy in the middle).
So far, I’m pleased. Now I have something to watch every night of the week. I think I might need to go to Target and pick up a life. Sounds like I could use one.
shit, TARGET is where we get a life? All this time I've been searching for it at Walmart.
ReplyDeleteYeah, Walmart is always sold out...
ReplyDeleteI avoid Walmart because I know I'd end up on that "people of Walmart" website, or whatever it's called.
ReplyDeleteI'm currently watching Top Chef reruns in anticipation or the restaurant wars episode tonight and DVR'd a rerun of Criminal Minds because I love that show.
Can I catch a ride to Target?
Let's all get a carpool to Target. I'm in desperate need of a life outside of Food Network and HGTV. The shows I watch on TV are more appropriate for a 70 year old widow than a 29 year old single mom.
ReplyDeleteI actually watched the Home Shopping Network a little last night. It's time for an intervention.
I met Chris O'Donnell once. It was almost 20 years ago (how is that possible?). I was at the races in Saratoga, NY with then-boyfriend, and Chris O'D was there. Boyfriend and Chris went to college together, but I had NO idea who he was. The brush with fame was completely lost on me. All I remember was that he was very pleasant and very short.
ReplyDeletewhoa who whoa...Chris O'Donnell is on NCIS LA? Where in the hell have I been?
ReplyDeleteGotta go DVR that series...I've had the biggest crush on him forever...I think b/c he looks like my high school boyfriend :)
I love NCIS and have been getting into NCIS:LA - it's no NCIS, but it's nice to look at! :)
ReplyDeletehey girl! good to hear from you. hope all is well with you & your precious daughter. also, do NOT let her ever ever ever see the Bella Sara horse cards that my daughter is obsessed with--although, unfortunately, it does seem to be a natural progression from My Little Pony...
ReplyDeleteMan, the pressure to buy just the right house and not overpay is immense--I'd be getting all the tips I could pick up too.
ReplyDeleteYou ever go in Target on a Sunday afternoon? At ours that's where every family in the county with a 0-2 year old goes for their weekend outing, including mine. We never, never escape that place for less than a hundred bucks.
I am always looking for a decent (doesn't even have to be good) show to whisk me away. It's always good if there are muscular men with tight shirts on too!
ReplyDeleteI am obsessed with House Hunters right now as well. We are relocating from Alabama to Houston next month. We are under contract on a house, which I will not see in person until we move there....ahhhh!!! I am amazed at how the markets vary so drastically.
