It’s not often that I get the television to myself anymore. For years, I have endured (too) many action movies and not enough romance. I rarely see the movies I’ve been longing for.
[Like The Notebook. Still haven't seen that one.]
Last night, I rented a movie, thinking it would be one that Mike would want to watch as well, because if I want to spend time with my husband it’s on his terms. You know how it is, so don’t judge.
Fracture was the movie I chose, but he had no interest. None at all. So none at all, that he went to his layer the basement to play video games.
Leaving the television to me!
Me.
And the TV.
Alone.
On a Saturday night.
This is a special moment in time dear Internets.
So, I got on my comfy clothes and settled in for some quality time watching anything that I wanted. Anything!
But I couldn’t find Anything!, there was Nothing! on.
Stupid action movies, no romance. Not even a decent sitcom or re-run that I wanted to see.
*sigh*
What did I do?
Waste my precious time watching The Roast of Pamela Anderson.
Pammy’s shirt was COMPLETELY see through and sans bra … she didn’t realize just how see through until the end of the roast. *pfffft*
Quality TV right there Internets. High. Quality.
Where else could you see Bea Arthur, Andy Dick, Sarah Silverman, Jimmy Kimmel, Courtney Love and Tommy Lee (Mmmm Tommy… in a hot diseased sort of way) to name a few, hanging out on the same stage taking pot shots at each other?
An hour and a half of my life that I can never get back.
*shakes head*
It was mindless and stupid… yet enjoyable…in a weird train wreck type of way. All the while, completely embarrassing difficult to watch.
[anything with Courtney Love is hard to sit through except The People vs. Larry Flint where she did a decent job playing a dirty dirty heroin addicted whore - very similar to her own life.]
Trash TV always sucks me in. I am a complete sucker for celebrity train wrecks (Exhibit A: Britney Spears).
If I have time and access to the television, I end up watching Access, Entertainment Tonight, The Insider… You know, daily news updates.
What about you? Are you totally sucked in to the world of celebrity “news”? Spend too much time on Perez Hiltion. com or other trashy gossip sites like me? Tell me you do… I’ll feel better.
First time here, and I’ve gotta say I’m enjoying all the bloggy goodness!
If it makes you feel better…I spend a lot of time on people dot com and other such celeb gossip sites…I’m a stay-at-home mom who doesn’t get out enough…what else am I gonna do?
Glad you found your way here, hope you come back!!
At least you have an excuse (even though I don’t really believe it - cuz I KNOW how busy to SAHMs are) but Me? I work full time and any site that’s not bocked by our server I’m reading it on lunch! LOL

heh, I think this is exactly why I love to listen to Howard Stern. It’s helps me meet my personal trash quota most days. (Wasn’t Artie Lange on that roast? And what is up with Pam’s hair?)
Oh! I so miss Howard. *sniff* I NEED Sirius so stinkin’ bad!
No, Artie wasn’t on Pam’s roast, or if he was, he was just a seat filler that didn’t speak, but I didn’t see him

Oh, I caught a few minutes of that Pam-Roast a few months ago, and it was truly disgusting (in a Mick-Jagger-Is-Disgusting kind of way… You know, how you SAY that Mick is gross, and yet you MEAN he is strangely, sickeningly appealling).
Girl, you need Rogers On Demand!! They’ve even got a few movies that I actually WANT to see, and it’s a hell of a lot cheaper than paying overdue fines at the DVD rental place.
And yes. I check Laineygossip every couple of hours, every single day. I just need the laugh it gives me!

I’m totally with you on watching all the entertainment shows etc, counts as the real news. Totally addicted to watching celebrity messes.

So not into celebrity news LOl Maybe it’s because I live down here were so much of it takes place and we just sort of roll our eyes like BIG DEAL LOL Half of everybody in LA/Hollywood lives that way–just without the celeb and paparrazzi thing going on **shrug**
I guess when you live in the midst of it and see it all the time, there’s really no allure left. LOL

Even from Malaysia, I am stalking them celebrities LOL. My husband thinks it’s my secret wish that I was one of ‘em. Well, I wouldn’t mind being slim and having all the lovely ’stuff’!
You and me both sista! Wouldn’t it be nice to have their lives.. for one day.. then I’d probably have enough with the cameras.

Actually…no. I have no desire to watch that stuff. The closest I get to celebrity stuff is the show Tori and Dean: Inn Love. And that’s not celeb news or anything.

um, I missed that one, but the other night the channel was on comedy central and the roast for flavor flav was on and we could NOT turn it off… yes a train wreck is right, we could not take our eyes off of it!!
