Can you believe Thanksgiving is next week? It has really snuck up on me! I’m so excited! Then after Thanksgiving comes Christmas! I can’t wait to decorate my house for the first time. It’s going to be really awesome and exciting, once I come up with an awesome decoration scheme. All I’m sure about is that I want a big tree in my front window with lots of lights. Lots.
You know how sometimes your birthday or Christmas rolls around and everyone says, what do you want this year? And you really can’t think of a single thing you really want?
Yeah, me neither. Especially this year. I can think of lots of things I would like to get into my hot little hands. Some of them are things I really need (in ivory, king size, please), some of them are things I think I need (size medium, thanks) and some of them are things I’m fairly sure I don’t really need but might die if I can’t have (size ten, if you are in the market), and some things that I just think are downright pretty and might want to come live at my house, with me (I’m a libra in case you were wondering).
Speaking of things I want and like, I want to amend my statement that Lie to Me is the best show on television. It’s good, don’t get me wrong, but I’ve decided I like Castle the best. Partially because I love it when ridiculously good looking people do mundane every day jobs on television shows, but MOSTLY because I love every single article of clothing worn by Detective Kate Beckett. Her clothes are obviously not in the average salary range of a new york city cop, good thing her back story includes her being a park ave princess in her earlier life, you know, before tragedy struck and her mother was killed and she swore to avenge her by joining the Force. It makes it all so much more believable, especially the part where she wears spike heels while chasing criminals through the streets. The unbelievable part is how completely obsessed I am with all the different leather jackets she sports. I love all her coats, and her shoes. Sigh. So, sorry Lie to Me, until you can beef up the wardrobe, Castle is in the lead. And a quick search of the internet leads me to believe I am not the only one who is obsessed with this aspect of the show.
I hope you have all enjoyed this installment of “I’m a materialistic fashion whore who watches too much television.” Tune in next week for “I like to complain about things that don’t matter to anyone but me to everyone I can corner and make my captive audience against their will.” Actually, next week might be more along the lines of “Listen to the nutty, crazy, ridiculous and embarrassing things that were said and done by my family on Thanksgiving after a few bottles of wine.” Who knows, you just can’t ever tell. (Note to family: I’d never really report such things on the blog, I keep them all written down somewhere else for the expose novel I’m going to write one day about everyone I know and love).
Man, I’m cracking myself up with the jokes this afternoon. 🙂
the thin line between optimism and delusion... 
So I just read your blog entry and was about to hit the “like” button when I realized that, no, this is not Facebook and therefore there is no “like” button. But there should be.
