Random Thoughts...

I fell into a bit of a dilemma tonight -- Dancing With the Stars, American Idol and 90210(2.0) were all on at 8 pm tonight. My DVR was set for 90210 and American Idol, but I realized that I couldn't watch a third program if I was already recording two. What does Cablevision expect me to do? What if I want to watch a third program? In thinking this extremely important through, I realized that I could have watched DWTS in my bedroom and continued with recording Idol ... or I could get a second DVR for my other tv, but that seems a bit excessive, I watch a lot of TV, but I've never really had this issue before.

Either I'm done with idol for the season, or Fox pays my cable bill for the second DVR, I am now thinking about getting ...

Oh, to be me ...

Who Didn't See This One Coming...

Atlanta Housewife and her girlfriend DJ Tracey Young have broken up .. biiiig shocker!

Perez has informed me that Tracey was wanting Kim to make more of a commitment to her, but it seems that Kim was always running back to her former flame, Big Poppa!

Now let's think, What does Big Poppa have that Tracey doesn't...I can think of a few things ...

wink,wink!

Dancing With the Stars...the First Vote Off!

DWTS Live Blog - 3/30

This is the night I have been waiting for!!! I am so excited that right off the bat, Buzz is safe, phew, it was obviously my second voting phone call that saved him last week! I can rest easy and just assume Kate Gosselin is a goner.

hm, ok Pam Anderson is in the bottom two - I'm not sad about that.

I am loving The Beach Boys!! John Stamos is a God and Mike Love's still got it!!

ok, just heard that Evan and Anna are safe ... whatevs, he can dance, he's an ice skater..I'm okay with that.

My predictions for bottom two are:
Pam Anderson
Kate Gosselin and Kate goes ....

ok, Jake is safe...Nicole too, she was a sure thing though...

My initial thoughts for the bottom two were Kate and Chad Ochocinco, I love Cheryl, she worked wonders with Emmett Smith a few seasons ago, but not sure Ochocinco has what it takes.

Brooke Burke ... I like her a lot better than Samantha Harris, but why didn't they call me for this job!!! I can sit in hair and make-up all day, then read a teleprompter, maybe not though, as I am sort of the most awkward person on the planet, I reckon, my nervous stutter would be raging!

Erin and Maxs are safe!! I love them, I'm hoping the rumors are true and they're in the midst of a torrid love affair off screen!

WHAT, Ochocinco is safe?!?! oops ...

Niecy Nash is still a question mark, but I love her too -- so sassy! I hope she is safe tonight.

OMG, Kate Gosselin looks like she'll cut a bitch if she's voted off, I hope she is..and does!!

BlASPHEMOUS! KATE IS SAFE! CURSES!!

woagh, hmm, did NOT see this one coming -- Shannon is gone ... oh, well.
We'll miss you Shannen, I'll always remember you as 1/2 of this fantastic duo...




Until next week...I CAN NOT wait!

Who is YOUR Celebrity Baby Crush??

I was in the midst of a very riveting email exchange with a fabulous friend of mine, SCS, when she sent me an adorable picture of Harlow Madden - We love, love, love celebrity spawn, particularly Harlow ... she is just the cutest!! This led me to my latest blog post idea... a photo montage of my favorite and the most genetically blessed celebrity babies ... here we go ...

Suri Cruise - not the biggest fan of her, but she is Scientology's littlest princess, so I felt inclined to include her ...


Levi Mcconaughey - so adorable and will probably be the coolest, most laid back kid out there


Shiloh Jolie-Pitt - Adorable!! I think my favorite thing about her were the tabloid headlines from a few weeks ago that said Angelina and Brad were trying to change her gender -- not ALL girls have to be girly!! Shine on Shiloh!!


Nahla Aubry - With Halle Barry as a mom and Gabriel Aubry as a dad, there is NO WAY she won't be absolutely gorgeous when she grows up! In my humblest opinion she IS the best looking kid out there - totally my celebrity baby crush!



Blanket Jackson - couldn't resist ...


There is also:
Britney Spear's beloved boys: Jaiden and Sean P.
Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz: Bronx Mowgli
Gwyneth Paltrow & Chris Martin: Apple & Moses
Jennifer Garner & Ben Affleck: Violet & Seraphina

10 Ways to Fix a Bady Day Fast...

I was reading last months Glamour magazine and a fun article stood out - 10 Ways to Fix a Bad Day Fast ... this mostly applies to girls, I apologize to my male readers, I will be sure to follow up with something male oriented...

1) Put on your highest heels-or take those suckers off! (yeh, im more on the take them off side of this one)

2) Go into a closet. Shut door. Scream. Feel a little silly for screaming in a closet, carry on!

3) Just give up and put your hair in a ponytail

4) Throw caution to the wind and actually smile at a stranger. (I bet it not only makes their day, but yours too!)

5) Rub your own feet. Who needs a whipped boyfriend? (or go get a pedicure, ! agree though, never underestimate the power of a good foot massage, I prefer when someone else does it, I don't have a boyfriend and am fully satisfied with any lady at any nail place!)

6) Kiss Someone. Bonus points if they're over 83 or under three. (true!!)

7) Catnap preferably with a cat or a dog.

8) Get off that weird fat diet immediately, It's wrecking your day and your metabolism! (agreed!)

9) Have an orgasm, maybe two, it's how he'd handle it, right? (Glamour Mag is so sassy!)

10) Stop waiting for ? to make you happy. You're in charge! (AMEN!)

Hope this turns that frown upside down, THANKS GLAMOUR!!

A Housewife becomes a REAL Housewife ...

So, It's official Bethenny Frankel is finally married! I feel like she has been waiting for this moment for the past 39 years of her life. Her and her former fiancee tied the knot yesterday at New York City's Four Seasons Hotel and this morning she tweets, "I'm a real housewife!" Obviously, cameras were on hand to capture every moment of this skinny girl's nuptials for her upcoming special Bethenny's Getting Married. Once a famewh*re, always a famewh*re.

Their first child is due in June.

Mazel Tov to the Happy Couple!

Blindsided ...

I was talking with a friend the other day and, clearly about celeb gossip and obviously the topic of Sandra Bullock and Jesse James came up ... she came up with an interesting theory that perhaps Sandy was aware of the cheating and that maybe they waited to break the story until AFTER the Academy Awards. I thought that was an interesting theory ... I don't think there is any way that Sandy couldn't have known something was up.

I pretty much think that when you're in a relationship and someone is sneaking around, you know it...you can either choose to ignore it or refuse to believe it, but I think deep down someone always knows when something isn't right.

Was Sandy completely blindsided or do you think she knew something wasn't right?

Helpful Suggestion...

When I go to the gym, I enjoy listening to music on my ipod, but I also need the TV in front of me to be on because I enjoy the visual. During the week days I find myself watching Regis and Kelly and if I am there a little bit later, then Rachel Ray and maybe The View (GO ABC!)if it's a really slow morning. This morning as I was walking down, I was wondering what I would to watch ... going through the channels on the mini tv in front of me, I landed on Bravo network and lo and behold America's Next Top Model was on....not just any ANTM cycle, but cycle 4, one of the better ones in my opinion. It was the season that Naima won, but featured such stellar model wannabes such as 'don't worry I've taken anger management classes' Tiffany, Lluvy, Rebecca (who fell flat over in the middle of judging, and the best of the best, 'Scabies' Michelle!! BONUS BONUS BONUS!

and not for nothing, ANTM could quite possibly be THE best show to have on .. because nothing motivates me more than a skinny girl competition! (Nigel Barker isn't so bad either!)

so next time you are at the gym, consider ANTM as a motivator!

and PS: 'Scabies' Michelle has been dating Johnny Fairplay, of "my grandmother died" Survivor fame! They are expecting their first child soon ...

Thank Goodness its Friday...

Congrats Beyonce and Jay-Z!

Boyfriends, Booze and Books ...

play by play (somewhat) of Real Housewives of New York City episode 3/25...


ugh, I don't even know where to begin...Kelly is tall and phenomenal looking, Ramona brings her daughter to a fashion show then tosses her in a cab when she gets an opportunity to hang with PEREZ HILTON, see ya bloodline! Bethenny may or may not be on prozac? was unclear about that exchange that took place between her Kelly and Alex at her "event"...LuAnn....whatever...Jill ....here we go...oh, hello Gloria,(Jill's mom) nice to see you again ... but only for a moment ...

Jill, sick LV shoe"trunk"...I want...but if only my Old Navy flip flops and my Ugg boots are worthy ... what are these 45 second blurbs?...gives ma AMPLE time to blog though!...

Oh great, Jill is hosting a party for some of her "faboulas" girlfriends...I mean, what else do you do during fashion week! Apparently LuAnn talks about her divorce...GLORIA gives amazing advice...my god, GLORIA, you AND ROSIE need a show ... Laverne & Shirley 2010!

hahaha, OH Ramona, never one without a rumor....apparently Jill is returning too much to Saks...so god forbid, she hold an "event" there...wait, did LuAnn just call Kelly "funky" or "spunky"? I hope, Spunky!

Welcome, Simon!

Exchange between LuAnn and Ramona...awkward! "The Countess is lying, if she is lying about this, what else is she lying about..." Point to Ramona, what ELSE is she lying about...hopefully she's referring to her "loose" ways while married...(still waiting for Bravo to acknowledge that!)

moving on ..

Enter Boozy Alex...bringing up the son crawling up a leg thing....first of all ... lets talk about said leg ... whose leg was this kid crawling up ... was this person sitting down? standing up? I don't fully get it? was this leg as large as a jungle gym? I guess I'm just a little confused ... how does a 4 year old "crawl up a leg"- basically how small is this kid, or how big is this leg ... weird.

however, Team Alex on this issue...who is anyone to bring up anyone else's parenting strategies, if a kid wants to climb a leg, let them ... now if it's JILL'S leg, then fine...have an issue...but what do you care if someone else's kid is acting their age.
(side note: still need to know what sort of situation these kids were at, were other kids there, was it an adult party they brought their kids too?)

Ramona loves her some Pinot Grigrio...can't blame her...

Wait, hold up, so LuAnn, the COUNTESS LuAnn, offers up information to Ramona saying that her divorce was final that day ... and Ramona get's all, for lack of a better word, RAMONA on her ... sympathetic and whatevs, and LuAnn looks like she's over it ... well than don't drop that bomb on her at Jill's "event" sorry, LuAnn, you're not ALL that ... Team Ramona...

Ramona is crazy? Kelly thinks she reads gossip? Miss Australia?? Kelly is now confronting Ramona? "im asking you, but I don't want to know???" ?????

I'm exhausted, these women just don't disappoint!

So, this leads me to my next question....Do you ask someone who you may speculate to have fake breasts if they are in fact fake??

canNOT WAIT for next week ...

Dancing with the Stars...

So tonight is the first vote off of Dancing with the Stars! I sort of cant wait for it...this is going to be a great season! so many fabulous "stars".

Granted it was week one, so nobody stood out as being totally stellar yet, but as they say this show is about progress and not raw talent. I never understand this concept, how is it that they can expect an 80 year old man (Buzz Aldrin) and a former pussycat doll (Nicole Sherzinger) to compete in the same dancing competition ... or how they'll have former boy-banders competing when dancing is their middle name!

Anyways: I'm thoroughly excited for the vote off tonight -- and I promised I wouldn't get political, BUT on Monday night I voted for Buzz Aldrin.....twice!

This just in ...

Perez just informed me that The Hills is being canceled, there will be one more season then its DUNZO! I can't say im surprised, the show went completely down hill once Lauren Conrad left .... so much so, that I coulnd't even really watch it...what o what will Brody Jenner and Frankie Delgado do now?? I hate to say this but I'll sort of miss these reality show winners!

I make no mention of Speidi ... I have no time to waste on them .... unless it's to watch that this gem of a video ... Heidi's home made music video for her non-hit single Higher ... produced, directed and shot (with what appears to be the video setting on his handheld sony coolpix camera), Spencer Pratt! Enjoy!

American Idol...

So, I have to fully admit that I haven't really been watching American Idol this season...yet...I enjoy the silly auditions .... but once they get to hollywood, the weeding down from however many to 12, I tend to not watch ... then I start tuning it at the top 12.

For the past few seasons of Idol, I've been meeting up with my best guy friends, MH, BP, & RDL on Tuesday and Wednesday nights to tune in, discuss and vote on our fave future American Idols! If one of us was unable to make it, we'd obviosly email our thoughts in a group email the following morning. We take our Idol VERY seriosly ... for the finale's we'd bbq and enjoy finding out our latest star over America's favorite meal .. burgers and dogs!!

Anyways, BP went off to grad school, MH got married and RDL moved to NYC, so waching idol alone doesn't offer up the same enthusiasm as it would if I were with the rest of the gang....I offered up the idea of all of us sitting watching on skype ... but that idea was quickly shot down ... so to say my heart really isnt into the competition this season is accurate.

I'm also not quite sure how I feel about Ellen Degeneris as a judge ... LOVE LOVE LOVE Ellen as a comedian and talk show host, but as an idol judge? not so sure...what does she know about music ... yes, she likes to dance...but does she know the ins and outs of what makes a good singer?? I guess I think they should have picked someone with a little more industry experience.

THIS ALL BEING SAID -- I tuned in for the first two singers on Tuesday night, Lee Dewayze, who I was very impressed by! I liked him!! but good lord, Paige Miles? What was that? how did she ever make it that far ... needlees to say I hear she was voted off last night....now, I didn't see any of the other singers, but if there was anyone worse than that I would imagine Simon would just quit right then and there...

America, you got this one right, see ya Paige....

Oh my, apparently Reggie Bush may have cheated on Kim Kardashian ... who cheats on Kim Kardashian?? I mean, I guess she is a bit of a wet blanket in the personality department, but she's hot!! I'm inclined to think that Reggie can do no wrong, because he is, after all, a New Orleans Saint ... but cheating is never the answer ...

has anyone been watching this season of the Real World in D.C.? I haven't gotten too into it at all, but caught the episode where one of the castmates comes home from the club with a girl .... he calls his girlfriend, breaks up with her over the phone, then proceeds to get it on with the girl he brought home! I mean, I guess that's the way to do it ... but still ... not ok.

My Blogging Rules ...

1) I will not use full names unless I am thanking you for a helpful suggestion or have gotten permission from you already ... instead when I reference you, I will use your initials or a nickname I know you have!

When my blog inevitably blows up ... I don't want to drag you all down the fame train with me ... except for my sister, who will clearly become my partner in celebrity crime...and my mother who will be my manager a la Kris Kardashian ... this will then all spiral into a reality television show ... Hangin' with the Hoffmans ... then Sarah and I will open up stores in NYC and Miami .. then there will be a spin-off reality show of us managing our store in Miami .... somehow this all sounds oddly familiar ... hhmmm

back to my rules ...

2) I will not get political, do not want to alienate any of my readers...

3) I will try to comment back to as many comments as possible, if not by "comment" then by a blog post! I like the comments because they often spark new post ideas, so keep them coming!!

Also, I'm beginning to take apps for the rest of my entourage .... I definitely need a Turtle...

Hollywood Marriages ...

What is up with Hollywood marriages?? Why can't they last? I don't buy that whole ... well we're busy so we're away from each other for a while .. bla bla .. ok maybe that's a factor for growing apart ... which I can accept ... but if you're getting married, and you take those vows .... then stop cavorting/canoodling/sleeping with other people! Unless your Mo'nique and her husband .. rumor has it they have an open marriage (but don't even get me started on THAT)

Sandy & Jesse James ... yikes ... what happened there? I really really liked them! and Sandy is totally a friend in my head, she seems so real and funny and talented....I really loved how she was married to somewhat of a badass! Well, bad ASS indeed .... cheating with that women? I'm dying to know what she has that Sandy doesn't ... besides a sever and offensive amount of tattoos .... and not for nothing, it's also been reported that she is a white supremecist (thank you Perez) and now it's coming out that Jesse may be one too?? Poor Sandra Bullock ... I hope she is comforted everyday by her shiny brand new Oscar ...

Kim Kardashian & Reggie Bush ... I actually liked them together, but after hearing reports that she was trying to outshine him at the Superbowl .... see ya Kim. Let someoene else have the spotlight, espesh your boyfriend as a superbowl CHAMP! ... you need to work on your jealousy issues....and Reggie...call me! :) I have an odd feeling though that its not completely over for these two ...

This leads into my next poll question ...

Would you rather be cheated on by someone who is hotter/more successful than you ... or less?

Count De Lesseps

If you all were wondering who the homewrecking broad was that broke up the Count and Countesses happy marriage ... well here she is ... Princess Kemeria Abajobir.

She is an Ethiopian royal and the granddaughter of King Abba Jifar II...and yes, her and the Count are still together! I guess if you are going to cheat, mine as well cheat with actual royalty!

LuAnn De Lesseps

Oh LuAnn, Countess Lulu ... what would I do without you ....

I'm not quite sure where to begin ... but one of my oldest most wonderful friends JMcDubs mentioned in a blog comment (yay, people are reading!!) that she isn't finding LuAnn so awful this season ..... weeelll, here are my thoughts on that ....

Her and Jill are total mean girls ... and yes, Mario's comment of "countess, countless" while albeit TOTALLY hilarious, was immature and rude....but, like, get over it ... he was merely making a factual statement over the fact that she is now less one count in her life.

Side comment: I LOVE how Mario's justification for his comment was that he didn't say it TO her, hhaha, dude, your 50 yrs old ... act like it.

anyways my point ...

I feel bad for her ... she's in the midst of a divorce, that's awful/sad ... but that's no excuse to be bully-ish! we ALL know my thoughts on Bethenny ... but when her and LuAnn were meeting for drinks and LuAnn started off by asking who was paying?? what is that ... i dont understand that concept ... I will fully agree with Bethenny .... so EVERY time I suggest going for drinks, dinner, bowling, surfing, skydiving, on a vacation to the maldives (somedaaaaay) that I am paying for this? makes no sense...sorry LuAnn ... Team Bethenny for that argument.

ALSO, how was Bravo able to gloss over Ramona's comment regarding LuAnn's, ahem, sluttiness while she was married .... we need to explore THAT! I hope LuAnn's loose ways are brought to light this season ....

This season will be explosive, and I'll be watching/blogging every step of the way ....

also Bravo, if you're reading .... bring on more Rosie ... I want a spin-off show on Rosie the housekeeper .... thanks!

The Bachelor

My mistake, one of my loyal readers and wonderful friend (Hi, LMD) reminded me that I do in fact watch The Bachelor .... how could I forget! well, here's why ... I was MAJORLY into The Bachelor/Bachelorette in college but sort of just stopped watching. Not for any particular reason why, Im just assuming that something else came along that I started to watch instead ... then I sort of started to hate the concept behind the show ....

I don't really get it...why would any girl (or guy) sign up for that ... I mean its one thing to date a guy whose seeing other people, but when you have to live with them?? it just all seems sort of bogus to me ... this all being said ... if the producors behind the show called me to be on it, I'd be there in a hot minute ... you reading ABC?? call me!

I, however, DID start to tune into this past season around the time of the visits to the girls homes .... and, now with all the contraversy surrounding Vienna and Jake, im sure happy I did!! apparently he cheated on her with his ex gf RIGHT AFTER TAPING ended .... all speculation though, I cannot confirm those rumors, BUT I did spot Vienna in the audience of DWTS this past Monday night ...

Helpful Suggestion ...

So every Tuesday and Wednesday my Friend SJS and I meet at Starbucks for a treat before class (although, now that it's warming up, we'll soon be switching to Robeks) but learned a little secret the other day ... I had NO idea there was a secret drink size that is not on their menu!!

I am not a huge coffee drinker, so I drink it as more of a little treat than a necessity for caffeine. Around the holidays my go-to is a peppermint mocha, so festive :) and jan/feb/march my go-to is a skim chai latte ... but those calories add up!!

The other day I went to Barnes and Noble and stocked up on new cookbooks .. this one I bought called Hungry Girl: Recipes, and Survival Strategies for Guilt-Free Eating in the Real World by Lisa Lillian gave me this tip ....

Now when I go to Starbucks and get my skim chai latte I order it in size "short." It is smaller than the tall ... only 8 oz, but perfect for that mid afternoon sweet fix, minus the blasphemous calories!!

Thank you Hungry Girl!!

Millionaire Matchmaker...say who?

O M G! so here I am watching the new episode of Millionaire Matchmaker on Bravo ... minding my business watching Patti do her thing ... when all of a sudden one of my sorority sisters appears on the screen! It's the scene when Patti is interviewing the potential girls for dates with the guys .... Carol is her name .. and Patti did not like her ...

I wasn't positive it was her, so of course, the next logical step is to head straight to facebook. I messaged Carol and asked her if I just saw her on Millionaire Matchmaker (keep in mind, I have not seen her or talked to her since college) then immediately called my sister to share with her my television sighting! Sarah was a Kappa too and knew Carol well also...

Sarah raised a good question ....
Would you rather be on Millionaire Matchmaker and picked to go on a date with one of the millionaires OR be iinterviewed by Patti and deemed NOT worthy???

Breast Milk .... Cheese?

As I'm watching this weeks episode of 90210 (2.0) I am also catching up on last weeks People Magazine ... I know, I know, a few days late as its usually my weekend read ... but I was too busy basking in the glory of Long Islands wine country to check my mail back home ...

ANYWAY ... there is an article that caught me a little bit off guard...NYC chef Daniel Angerer made cheese out of his fiancee's breast milk. She apparently makes an overabundance and they simply ran out of freezer space for it, so out of sheer curiosity he made some cheese, why not!

Now, I like cheese....a lot...but something seems so wrong with that. Part of me wants to try it, but another part is totally grossed out by it. If I can eat cheese (and lots of it) from animals such as sheep, cow and goat ... why can't I eat cheese from made from a human ...

alas, the article states that according to a NYC Health Dept rep "breast milk is not intended for adults or for wide public consumption"

fair enough .... thoughts?

Bethenny Frankel....

In the past couple days I have found myself being asked about my feelings towards Real Housewife of New York, Bethenny Frankel .... In the past I have always been a fan ... but for some reason this season I find her to be totally, 100%, rude and offensive. I am extremely happy for her success ... this whole skinny girl thing has really taken off, i guess?? But I'm getting the feeling that her "fame" has completely gone to her head.

I can appreciate a no nonsense bitch who makes no excuses for her behavior (hello, Jules from High Society) but Bethenny comes across now as just plain abnoxious ....

At Ramona's labor day bbq ... when that random friend of Ramona's and apparently Jill's was talking to Bethenny and not for nothing was being perfectly pleasant about the situation was merely informing her that Jill felt a little slighted ... cut to Bethennys voice over ... "who are you, why are you talking to me, what are you the caterer?" ... seriosly?? who are YOU....you just so happened to name a drink that people have been drinking forever ... patron with lime ... not rocket science.

I also found her behavoir in this past weeks episode at Jason's birthday party totally abnoxious when she was making fun of Jasons friend for his accent and how he speaks ... I love how her boyfriend called her out on it ... then she retorts with ... "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.." nice save .... or not.

No me gusta, Bethenny

My Television Shows ...

I figured I'd add a list of shows that I watch on a regular basis ...

Gossip Girl - WB
Dancing with the Stars - ABC
Price of Beauty - VH1
Melrose Place (2.0) - WB
90210 (2.0) - WB
Real Housewives ... - Bravo
Kell on Earth - Bravo
Million Dollar Listing - Bravo
The Office - NBC
30 Rock - NBC
High Society - WB
Entourage - HBO
The Marriage Ref - NBC
America's Next Top Model - WB

I feel like there are several that I am missing .... some of the shows above I don't watch religiously, but those are the ones that I tend to catch on a regular basis ....

Other shows I catch randomly are ...
Diners, Drive Ins and Dives
Iron Chef America
Everyday Italian
Millionaire Matchmaker
Barefoot Contessa
Man vs Food



I have to say I've been LOVING The Marriage Ref - last weeks trio of Cedric the Entertainer, Martha Stewart and Jason Alexander were hilarious! Martha's gangster, and she knows it! The show is highly entertaining...if you haven't seen it, I highly recomend checking out.....Thursday nights at 10 on NBC (I have to DVR, b/c obviously this is when Real Housewives is on ....)

Am I old...?

Watching Gossip Girl that I had recorded from last night .... Serena mentions the movie Dirty Dancing .... Little J has no clue what she is talking about ... I understand she's 16 .. but come on, its a classic!

My sister and I had a similar situation last month ... we were both working her companies sample sale and we were sitting there with her boss's daughter, a senior in high school. This was right around the time that the news broke that famed Growing Pains character, Boner (Richard) Stabone was missing.....so of course, my sister and I were knee deep in discussing the different headlines we had heard surrounding this when her boss's daughter more or less asked what Growing Pains was .... my god! She said that she had HEARD of the show ... but had never really seen it .... if anything the young ones need to check out the birth of Leo Dicaprio's career, the God that was Kirk Cameron or the Thicke that we all know and love, Alan .. (the thicke that THEY know, Robin's, FATHER ...)

yep, I'm old...

L&L

And so it begins ...

So I find myself sitting at home watching television and I have so many thoughts regarding what I'm actually watching! I am particularly fond of the Real Housewives .... after each episode it is necessary for me to rehash with my sister, my friends ... basically anyone who will listen .... so I figured I'd take it to a blog...thus My Reality was born ...

This site will be much like a double major in television shows and hollywood gossip with a concentration on the Real Housewives ... and a minor in everything else ... attempting to channel a walk through my brain ... not only will I know what goes on up there, but now you will too ...

I am not sure if this is something that will last a week and eventually lose interest ... or if it's something I will keep up with forever ... but for today, I am excited about it :)

I hope you all enjoy and comment!!!
