I Am the Boss of TV Tips

Wednesday, September 19, 2012

Today's tips from my WEEK O'TIPS are about what television shows you should be watching. You can see my other tips here and here.

I have excellent taste in television shows. You know it's true because even after Marc and I decided to stop watching tv (which you can read about here) and cancelled cable, the shows we watch are so good that we had to buy a ROKU and start watching them again. I know!

So if you love your J. J. Abrams like we do you will certainly be watching the final season of...

1. Fringe-because alternate universes and bowler hats and super mind powers=YES!

2. The same way you will be watching Revolution and hoping it can take the place of Fringe which was taking the place of Lost. I watched the premier, it looked good. The set reminded me of Terra Nova which was pretty disappointing especially since it looked like Lost and Jurassic Park had a love child that was going to be super awesome. But it wasn't. 

3. Marc and I both watched the first season of the night time soap Revenge, and we are looking forward to some back stabbing, long staring, enigmatic smiling second season.

4. And you don't want to miss Modern Family. Marc wants you to know that he knows it is true. 

5. We also picked up Once Upon a Time last season and are looking forward to it coming back. It is coming back isn't it? Can someone check that for me?

I was sort of hoping I wouldn't think of anymore shows so as not to appear overly invested...but the truth is we also watch every show Gordon Ramsey has. Not really. Just Hell's Kitchen, Master Chef, Kitchen Nightmares, and Hotel Hell. That's like, only half of them, right?

So what are you waiting for? Go set your DVR.

P.S. What are you watching?

It's All Complaining

Friday, April 23, 2010

I am sad because part of not paying an even bigger chunk of taxes was making a contribution to our 401K thingie. And for some reason, like we are poor planners, I wasn't planning on it. But then Marc said we had to do it anyway even if I had all kinds of vacation fantasies for that money.


But now it's gone until we are sixty-gasp-five.

I try to comfort myself by saying that it has gone to a better place where it can grow and get better. It is safe from accidental spending. Marc says I talk like it has gone to the Celestial Kingdom.

I am also sad because we had the stomach flu for the last week. Today even my dog is throwing up. Grossness! I keep cleaning and it keeps coming. But at least I can make him stay outside and barf...which unfortunately doesn't work with my kids seeing as how they can open the door and all.

As long as I'm discussing things that bug let's just go for it.

I am tired of my car lights burning out.

I'm sick of people saying diet coke dehydrates you (ICE people!).

There are a ton of restaurants right here in my own home town of Walnut Creek that I haven't been to and I know I won't get to for a long time because of budget constrictions and I tell you what, it REALLY chaps my hide!

I wish my car had a rear horn so I could honk back at people who honk at me.

And finally, what is wrong with Modern Family that they can't get a new episode up every week? Laziness, that's what I call it!

And one more thing, I want a tassel for my hutch but I don't want to make it OR buy it. It should just appear.

My friend Shawni always writes positive and uplifting things on her blog. If I have bummed you out in anyway, you should find her in my sidebar and go over there. Go.

It's so annoying to be responsible for other people's feelings. Meh.
