Random Tuesday Thoughts — The Late EditionToday is Random Tuesday and I know, I know I’m late to the party. And not, fashionably late. I am “you completely missed dinner would you like some leftovers” late. For some reason, I am have a heck of a time getting my shit together today. It must be a mother’s day hangover (or my brain got sunburned). As Libby would say, “What ev…” and not in a polite way. On Saturday night, I took the ladies to see Nim’s Island. Libby and I liked it, but it was a little scary for Joanna (mental note, maybe the 6 year old is too young for PG movies). The Small Town hosted a movie day in the gym. The acoustics left something to be desired, but hey, it was free. Who can argue with free. As I write this, I am watching something called Charm School. It features Ricki Lake trying to teach some manners to the rejects from Rock of Love Bus (why would these young girls want to date Bret Michaels, he is older than me) and Real Chance of Love (young girls try to date 2 guys I never heard of). I highly recommend you check out Charm School (I missed both of the dating shows so I am only watching the rejects). Charm School will definitely make you feel good about yourself (although not so good about the future of our country). I think some of these girls have cut their own hair, and not well. And then it goes downhill from there. Ricki Lake just had to tell a grown woman to use her words. There is a phrase I haven’t had to whip out since Joanna was 3. Depeche Mode is coming out with a new album. As far as I am concerned, Depeche Mode totally rules (did I mention my love of 80′s music). I haven’t heard anything from the new album, but I can’t wait. I wanted the band to play Depeche Mode at my wedding, but they refused (although they had no problem playing the freakin’ chicken dance. There is no accounting for taste). The other day, Joanna told me a little boy in her class wants to marry her. While he is in kindergarten with her, he is an older man. Fortunately, I found out that she told him that she isn’t allowed to date or get married until she is 18. I hope she remembers that in middle school. Libby is 9 and still has not exhibited Joanna’s level of interest in boys. I think we are doomed. If you have made it all the way through here, don’t forget to check out Keely, who launched all that is random. She always shows up on time. |
I TOTALLY watched the first two seasons of Rock of Love to feel superior. I haven’t watched Charm School, but maybe I should give it a try. I could use a boost.
And I am VERY excited for the DM album. Dave Gahan + tight pants = crazy sexy
I love Depeche Mode, too!
I loved Rock of Love! The first season I couldn’t keep from watching it. It was a great train wreck. I haven’t seen Charm School but it sounds fun, perfect for the summer.
JD, Charm School will give you the boost you need. I have trouble believing these people are as bad as they appear.
GreenJello, mmmm, jello. Depeche Mode is one of the best bands ever.
Jen, If you like Rock of Love, you will have an advantage over me. I have trouble telling the difference between all the girls with fake blond hair. They all look the same.
I have not seen these shows…perhaps I spend too much time in my goat house.
Hmmmm, maybe they need Goat Charm School. Abby could certainly benefit
Charm School started already?! I was not aware. It’s soooo going on my DVR to-do list. And Bret Michaels is ookie. Hence the abundance of stripper/sluts that sign up to romance him. Shameless trash, but much like a train wreck…you have to tune in?
you mean there were *rejects* from the list of girls that were on Rock of Love? Naaaaaaaaaaaaaagh! Not really?!That just boggles the mind.
I caught the ending of one of the charm school shows. Those girls need something, because they are surely lacking in charm.
I watched the second season of Rock of Love, and tried to watch Rock of Love Bus, but it was sooooo bad, I mean hanging out in front of the methodone clinic after the strippers got out of work. I think that’s how they found them all, no offense. I think they are lacking other things besides charm, like morals, clothes, underwear, virginity, etc. Very funny post today.
I love Depeche Mode too. Awesome band. Of course I grew up in the 80′s and listening to these guys. We saw Nims Island too. Such a cute movie. I love it. Thanks for stopping by today. Hope you had a great Mother’s day!
Pricilla, I am not sure Charm School is appropriate for a sensitive goat.
Mrsbear, I will have to check it out. I believe they took the worst of the worst from Rock of Love for Charm School.
KindaSassy, I really wonder how these girls are able to get through life.
Laura, they are lacking in charm, but they are certainly enjoyable to watch.
Stacy, having seen Charm School, I wouldn’t be surprised that they were lacking underwear. They dress them in these trashy private schoolgirl uniforms.
Michelle, Depeche Mode totally rocks! I think I liked Nim’s Island better than the girls.
I heard the new album is actually really good, too, they’re not just cashing in on the children of the 80s and their disposable money.
I seriously haven’t watched any of those shows. I think I’m tv-challenged these days.
Oh Anne, we have boy stuff going on and I am scared!! Even more so when the boy had all the girls in Oakville calling looking for him ~ LoL
Hmm, be careful about who wants to marry her in her class ~ I married the guy from my 10th-12th grade homeroom. We’ve been married 35 years! LOL
There’s nothing like the 80′s music. I agree that Depeche mode rules!
In Australia we don’t have Charm School – sounds bit like a programme we get to see based in England Ladette to Lady – the most uncouth of ‘women’ I use that term loosely – and we turn the winner into this beautiful young women suitable for British royality or least hierachy!
I don’t think I’ve ever seen Charm School. It sounds pretty funny, though.
You love in K? Yikes! We made it until the beginning of first grade with the youngest boy, much later for the older boy and girl.
Whoa. Love already? A little young isn’t it?
I can’t stand Charm School Those women drive me right up the wall. It should be called “Plastic Surgery School” as many boob jobs as those women have!
