10 Most Redic Shows on TV

10. Maury. Because only on Maury can a girl have 8 different guys tested for paternity for her baby and have none of them be the father. (its gotta be noted that although it makes my "most redic" list, I love Maury and watch it as much as I can.)

9. The Simple Life 3. Because the first 2 weren't bad enough. Really, enough with the Paris Hilton already.

8. Diary of an Affair. Is this supposed to be a rip off of the "A ... Story" on TLC?? Cause it's just depressing.

7. Who's Your Daddy. No explaination needed.

6. The Will. Who doesnt want to watch a disfunctional family go at it? Whatever happened to just spying on the neighbors?

5. Walker, Texas Ranger. I think Conan made this point for me. (pull the lever again!!)

4. Passions. I like soap operas and open to crazy plot twists. I'll tolerate Vanessa coming back to life 3 times (AMC), Todd getting kidnapped or trapped somewhere at least twice (OLTL), a 60 year old drug lord/ murderess (AMC), but I draw the line at vampires.

3. SI Swimsuit model search. Because you watch the show for the "plot twists." Get some porn and move on.

2. My Super Sweet 16. Because we really dont have enough shows that highlight the problems faced by rich white kids in cali.

1. Wife Swap. Because the only thing worse than a show that was ripped off from a Dave Chapelle sketch is a show that was ripped off a show that was ripped off a Dave Chappelle sketch.

Top 10 reasons I am changing the blog's format

9. Since I started moved, my days mostly consists of going to Home Depot, which isn't nearly as exciting as "Real World: Winchester"

8. Starting to suffer from carpel tunnel from my long rambling entries.

7. Prove to everyone out there that I can count backwards from 10 (and more!)

4. Something to think about in between Law and Order reruns on TNT

3. Seemed like a good idea after 5 beers (but really, what doesn't?)

Shifting gears yet again...

Gretch has requested an update, so of course here i am. i am working on shifting gears cause im tired of the "day in the life of..." boring commentary. but today i am uninspired (my muse must be stuck in the snow outside), so you guys get one last look into the fabulous life of...me. *wink* *blows kiss*

random thoughts, its 2005. that's insane, it doesnt seem like that long ago that we were throwing sock at ceiling fans in Quebec ('96), duct taping people to chairs ('99), and going to starbucks everyday(96- ...oh wait, i still goto starbucks everyday. haha.) 2004 brought me some great new people into my life, kept my old favorites, and an "expiration date" as wendy williams called it on the radio yesterday. all in all, i still remember how lucky i am and heres to a fantastic 2005. (i think that calls for a drink!)

this saturday is my cousins baby shower. its scary to think people i know are having kids and all. after all, its not like she is that much older than i am (10 years and 1 day...to the hour). and a bunch of other friends are getting married. i rmember when i was little, and going to me cousins's (same cousin as before) wedding and i had decided that 23 seemed like a good age to get married. now that i am 22, er i mean 21 for the second time, its really lost all its appeal. haha.

So to everyone who uses this as a procrastination page, don't worry I'll get you guys some content soon. :) check out gretch's blog if you cant wait.
