My husband and I get a kick out of Tosh.O

by

Do you ever watch Tosh.O on TV? I do, or rather my husband and I do. I made the mistake of taping an episode one night last year and showing it to my husband the next evening and ever since then he’s been hooked. It’s one of his favorite shows.

Typically the show has outtakes of video from the internet of people doing strange stuff or making fools of themselves. Most episodes he lets someone who has a high rated embarrassing internet video come on the show for a remake or redo. It’s usually pretty funny.

In the latest episode to air there was a girl doing gymnastics and she had an awful landing. They showed the video in slow motion and you could see both of her ankles collapsing as she landing. Ugh I’ll bet she was in double ankle braces for a long time after that! Wow! But … overall the show is funny … it does show some accidents like the one I described above, but mostly it shows funny crazy things.

So … have you ever watched Tosh.O? If you have what do you think of the show? If not .. check it out it’s worth watching at least once.

Charlie Sheen – Facinating

by

Well I must say I’ve spent the whole week just fascinated by the whole Charlie Sheen spectacle.

I’m a nurse so my alarm bells are ringing for him … but I have to say he certainly kept his cool when his children were taken away the other night by the police. If he were having a mental breakdown I don’t think he would have been able to stay so calm. Heck .. if someone were talking away my kids or even my dog I’m not sure I could have stayed quite as calm as he appeared – so good for him. I’ll give him that.

There’s an amazing amount of smoking going on in Sheen’s house too! I just quit smoking a few months ago and I can’t imagine being around that many smokes, or davidoff cigars.

What do you think of everything that’s been happening with Charlie Sheen?

Not very hungry lately

by

I was just saying on my other blog that my husband and I just finished eating a late dinner. I think we ate so late in part because I wasn’t really very hungry most of the day.

I haven’t been very hungry at all in the last two weeks. I do get hungry around dinner time but that’s about the only time that I really get hungry. I think it’s because we’ve been eating a bell peppers pretty much every day and they’ve been acting like the best appetite suppressant that I’ve ever had. I’m convinced that that’s what it is.

Have you ever experienced this .. Try eating bell peppers every day for a week or so. I don’t know if it works raw or not (probably). I’ve been eating them grilled or roasted – just a third to half a pepper a day and wow … no cravings for snacks between meals or feeling hungry at all.

Back to school

by

I just found out that my nephew went back to school in January. I was speaking with my sister the other day and she mentioned that my nephew had applied for an online business degree course and had started taking it in January.

I’m really pleased for him. He’s still young but he’s started a few different careers in the last couple of years and then stopped without finishing and this time it sounds like he might really see it through. I really hope that he gets his online business degree.

Sunday is going to be very busy

by

Sunday seems to be our big shopping day lately. I’m not sure how it’s turned out that way, but that seems to be the day when we go out grocery shopping for the week ahead, and run around to any other stores to get things we need.

Other than buying groceries, Sunday doesn’t make all that sense when I think about it, because the stores close so much earlier … we’re always scrambling to get to all the stores that we need to get to before they close. Silly isn’t it. I guess we should do some of our shopping on Saturdays or other weekdays.

On top of shopping I also have to read some jack3d reviews for my nephew either later tonight or tomorrow. He’s a fitness nut and he wants me to check this stuff out.

I think tomorrow is shaping up to be a very busy day.
