A bit of randomness to begin your week:
- The tile is ongoing. I am only a grouter and know better than to engage the actual saw so the heavy work only gets done on weekends when hubby is home. The floor is finished but the built in wall/shelf and the front of the tub are still in the works. Pictures coming soon.
- I watched the You Tube debate last week and actually found it very interesting. I don't think I have watched an entire debate before. We all know politics are important, being involved and all that citizenship stuff but putting all that aside, I couldn't get over the post debate commercial. Obviously networks target adds toward assumed viewers. Dora dolls in between Diego shows, Tide and Palmolive are at home on the Food network, etc. So this is You Tube, I would image a young, hip, techno savvy crowd. Imagine my surprise when 'ol Anderson Cooper raps up his opinion on the debate along with some of his distinguished friends only to be followed by an announcement as to why I should buy a Cat Grass Chia Pet for my furry friend. What does this mean? Is the young, hip crowd so techno savvy they have lost their humanness and only have relationships with cats? Or perhaps is the older, crazy-cat-lady crowd suddenly found a place to feel needed and understood on You Tube? Discuss.
- Where is the justice in placing the Chipotle in the same building as the dang Gold's Gym. I'm just trying to get me a burrito. I don't want to share the sidewalk with lycra clad men with pecs embarrassingly larger than mine. Rather than trying to shed some calories running for the door I am only trying to bite into mine a bit sooner. Then as I leave the building with said burrito and its mate of chips I must confront chipper twenty-somethings in their little outfits with their little gym totes skipping to their little cars. Not only am I not working out but I can't even wait for the car to delve into the warm saltiness of my bag 'o chips. I did try to maintain some dignity by pulling out a chip with an elegant teacup grasp, little pinky held aloft but all the daintiness was lost due to my mitten clad hand acting more like velcro and emerging from the bag looking like a chip paw. Rats, foiled again.

I think some of those You Tube questioners were the reason for the Chia cat commercials. Seriously, did you hear what some of those freaks asked?
And dearest, darlingest Em. You are the reason girls go to the gym. Because we want to look like you, and we don't, and it makes us angry. Enjoy those chips. You deserve them!
amen on your second comment stie: my favorite things...I see emily most everyday...and I'm reminded of how I could eat a little better and work out a little harder to be as lean and as good looking as our dear friend Emily.
I watched most of the debates (while blogging of course) and it was a joke!! Most of the questions were silly and a waste of energy to answer. I was pretty disappointed in CNN.
The you tube team who selected the questions should be fired!
I really want non-biased news that allows me the opportunity to think for myself and engage in intelligent conversation...blah blah.
