Posts from November 2011

So I just watched the final episode of Live with Regis and Kelly. Starting next week it is just Live with Kelly. I have watched Live for years , way back in the Kathie Lee days and then I wasn't sure how I felt about how Kelly Ripa as going to work out but she really did and was great also. I can't believe they just said she has been on for 11 years, it seems like just yesterday it was Kathie Lee (wow I am getting old). ANywho it is not about Kelly or Kathie today is all about Reege. I think he is really entertaining and a great morning show personality. I have always loved watching ths how and while lately I haven't been watching it as much as I used to when I do catch it I still really find it so fun to watch. It was like nothing classy or flashy but just good fun morning chatter and celebrity interviews and lots of games people could call in and win on. I feel like it was the perfect low budget , hosts will do anything fun but somehow came across as a little classy.

ANwyho, so today is Regis's final episode and they are doing all these tributes and video montages and y'all know I love myself a good video memory montage and I seriously was balling during Kelly Ripa's goodbye speech and when the cast of Rent sang Seasons of Love but personalized it for Regis. Ridiculous that I started balling twice during Regis's last episode but really it is a goodbye. He really is a class act.

So my parents and @paul and @terry are coming over for dinner tonight and 1 of the 2 things I am making I have never made before and does not have a clear recipe....this could be a disaster

haha so true , I loved this

@paul really got his dance on last night, hopefully hearing this song again will make him dance dance dance:

So I'm in charge of making the bulletin board at work each month and usually I love doing it but we've been so busy at work and stuff that I haven't had time to do it and it is already November 4th! So yesterday I decided, I know , I will make everyone in my department make hand turkeys and that will fill up the majority of the board. I brought in tons of glitter glue and crayons and markers and everyone made a hand turkey. I think it was a much needed morale booster and everyone enjoyed doing it! And plus that will fill up a lot of my bulletin board. I think my calling mihgt have been kindergarden art teacher because it was really fun!

I have an idea for my costume and it is not put together at all. Luckily it doesn't involve much but I work til 5. ugh. I can't find what i've been looking for though I've been working so much I haven't had much time to look but hopefully it alll comes together . I'm sure i'll be a ducktapped , stapled in, mess like always!

So I started watching some old videos on my camcorder from prolly around 2002-2008 maybe , not sure of exact times but some are pretty great. A lot are just stupid me , @jill, @mk and others being ridiculous and also a lot from estrip parties and when me and @jill and @lilho did estrip interviews to drum up traffic in the early estrip days. WE used to be pretty hardcore about getting new members. Theres a a lot of video of e:matt's 24th or 25th bday I can't remember now.

Wathcing these videos made me realize how crazy yet awesome and fun me and my friends used to be. Like we never drank and we just were ridiculous. THere is one where we all dressed up, Yosepha and Jen like dolled up gals named Pralene and Cream , @mk as a vietnam vet that wore sunglasses from the Nanny and kept PTSDing screaming "watch out cece", I wore a ladies thong over my jeans and a blond wig and was named Skeets and jill was my pimp/lover bambam. And we went out walking around Elmwood dressed like this and acting out our characters. We were so weird but I loved every minute of it. Now all the craziness usually ensues because of drinking but then we were just plain crazy fun.

me and @mk are going to get together on WEdnesday night and watch the videos and eat delicious snacks like heated salsa. Hopefully @jill can make it too...

one day maybe I'll put some of these vids on here, especially from estrip parties and what not.

So after my last post I was trying to find Kokomo on Youtube and this is actually one of the first results that came up: Are you F'in kidding me, Trolls and Kokomo , this is my dream come true!!!!

Instead of driving home from work on like the 290 or 190 to thruway to 33 or scajaquada or whatever highwayish way I used to go , I've instead been just driving straight down main street from Williamsville to home. I swear it only takes a few minutes more and is a much more pleasant drive. Mind you I wouldn't do it at like 5 but when I get out at 9 or 11 and there is little traffic it just is a pleasant drive I really enjoy for some reason. I usually listed to Delilah where people call in and she plays sappy love songs. I love it, always have and it is a nice end to my day. I am so glad I started driving home this way instead, for some reason I swear it makes work seem better. AND to top it all off last night they played Kokomo by the Beach Boys which is like my all time favorite song ever! Ever! EVER!! I MEAN EVER! NEVER TO BE TOPPED BY ANY OTHER SONG! When I was young if it would come on when we were driving home I would make my parents keep driving around the block until the song was over (and they would , was I a brat? unsure).

Anywho, this post was really supposed to be about Delilah letting me down a little. She has always done commercials for products and she suppossedly uses and loves them all but this latest one seemed extra scammy. It is for some pill that cures eczema, asthma and everything else. Not a prescription but like an otc vitamin of some sort. And she talks about how this pill is a gift from god and helped out her daughter so much. I feel like that is really playing on her core listeners and they trust her so much and will be like "a pill from god, well gosh darn it I need that!". I just didn't like it Delilah...... but i still love your show and will listen forev!

It's Omega XL , here's the link



And lets end this with a little kokomo,...ok wait I was gonna post a video but am gonna make it a whole new entry
