I just need to say, "God bless the DVD player". I put away my last black mourning outfit (out of respect to Sex and the City) and I've moved on to my next series...WEEDS!! Another quality show and I'm so glad that season 2 just came out on DVD. I've started to watch season 1 again so that I can refresh my memory. It's great to have some quality TV to watch if I'm in the mood for mindless entertainment. I can't take live TV anymore. To start, there is nothing on, and when there is something, it's a tabloid show talking about Lindsay, Paris, Nicole....and any other tragic starlet who is having a bad week.I was in the kitchen last night and the TV was on in the background. It was ET or Extra or one of those shows and they talked incessantly about inconsequential Hollywood things. That was taxing, but then that show ended and the next started and it covered all of the same information just repackaged with a new host and spin on the story. I literally had to stop what I was doing and go turn off the TV. The noise of continuous talking without saying anything was driving me crazy. Literally!! I'm scared about what is happening to our culture, we are just bombarded constantly with such junk ~ and the scary thing is we are becoming immune to it.
So anyway, all that to say that I am very happy to have Weeds to watch if I need a TV fix. It's funny because I went to purchase season 2 a few weeks ago and it wasn't on sale at Target, so when Daniel called to ask if I needed anything at Walmart, I asked him to check and see if it was on sale there. When he got home he informed me that they don't sell that show at Walmart. That just cracks me up. They won't sell a TV series that has drugs involved in it, yet they'll sell as many firearms as you would like. Gotta love it!! I could almost understand if they were completely against everything...porn, alcohol, drugs, weapons, and all those "anti-Christian" items, but when they start to pick and choose, it becomes hypocritical to me. So I have to say, no more Wal-mart for me (or for Daniel, sorry Daniel). I will have to purchase my firearms elsewhere. I should have asked Daniel if they were having a sale on the "Save our Kids" t-shirts :o
Okay, i feel like I'm on a total rant here...who's next....hmmmm...just teasing. I'm actually in a good mood today. It started when I went to he gym this morning. I finished my run on the treadmill and just felt really good. Some mornings it can be exhausting, but this morning it was invigorating.
After that I decided to stop at 7-11 for coffee....on a side note, I always feel like I'm second class because truth be told, I would take a cup of 7-11 flavored coffee over Starbucks any day. When I went in to get my coffee I was very excited because they had blueberry flavor. Yes, it sounds horrible, but it is quite good. As I poured my cup I literally started laughing at myself and the fact that I was truly happy about the coffee selection. It made me realize that it is the little things in life that can bring you joy. I mean, talk about low standards, a cup of flavored coffee was all I needed to start my day off on the right note....I guess they came up with slogan "oh thank Heaven for 7-11" for a reason :)
