Really Random

I know I've been quiet this week. I've had lots of thoughts to blog about but none of them ever transformed themselves to actual text. So maybe I'll cover them all randomly here.

What is our fascination with reality tv? Kristen and I caught a few episodes Sex Rehab with Dr. Drew. Really, there is a tv show about this. Sometimes these shows are like a train wreck that you can't look away from. They are sometimes so stupid that you sit there thinking, "Am I really watching this?" So what is the fascination? Do we simply want to feel superior to those poor fools? Or are we a society of living room voyeurs?

Speaking of tv... You can not turn on a television without hearing a plug for New Moon. I'm going to have to go see it. I read the books. They were definitely engaging but the movies are SO cheesy. Steven and I went to see the first one together and ended up laughing about how corny. I need a good laugh.

One movie that I really really want to see is The Blindside with Sandra Bullock. I've decided that Sandy is my girl crush. The movie is based on a true story and I love a good feel good movie.

I also love a good tear jerker. I need to rent one. I've been in a strange mood where I just need a good cry. Do you know what I mean? I've just been a little uptight. And the best way to get past that is a good cry. Devin thinks that is weird but I'm sure a lot of women out there can relate. You have a good cry and leave it all behind and move forward.

Speaking of moving forward. What is with all these shoes that tone your backside? Do they really work? Or are we just being taken in? Again? Our society is just looking for those quick fixes for the growing problem with obesity. Truth be told we just need to get off our behinds and do something. Anything. I'm guilty as charged of spending too much time in front of the tv and not being active.

So with that, I'm out of here.
