I have been watching a lot of TV as of late. When Randy isn’t around, its West Wing all the way, but every now and then something else sneaks into the mix. Here are some thoughts from my last week’s viewing.
1. Watched a Property Brothers this weekend where two (less robotically handsome than the hosts) brothers went in together on a $545,000 house to have the “perfect bachelor party house” complete with keg-orator. No matter how you slice it, I picture some tense holiday dinners in their future. It simply can’t work.
This home was a foreclosure property in a neighborhood where houses normally sold for over $1 million. Yep, the neighbors are going to LOVE them.
2. Also seen on this wild and crazy Saturday night – women’s college bowling. This is a thing?! A thing that gets TV time?! And they say cheerleading isn’t a sport.
3. I have learned more science from four episodes of the Cosmos series than my entire elementary career. I know Mrs. Ushi, my seventh grade science teacher who I swear couldn’t read, sucked nuts, but no one compares to Neil deGrassi Tyson. This show blows my mind every. single. time.
4. While I like the storyline of Downton Abbey better, the wardrobe of Mr. Selfridge is drool-worthy. So much better for those of us with hips and a love of hats. P.S. Not since Chandler Bing have I had a crush on a character like I do on Agnes Towler. She’s so pretty!
5. I may be watching too much television these days, but it’s hard to do too much when you’ve got this one your arm…
Rats… I thought I was going to get through one post without mentioning Miss Eggroll. Ah well, she is the reason I’m stuck on the couch after all. I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else.
