Days of our Lives Website

Now, I'm a working girl...not that kind of working girl...simmer down! You all know how I love my tv...a LOT. I'm a little addicted to a show called, Days of Our Lives...heard of it? I think you have. It's one of the longest running soaps on daytime, and if you haven't heard of it-then maybe you remember that Joey Tribiani on Friends was on it and played Dr. Drake Ramoray. Is anyone scared of me yet? No? Well, the thing is though I love the show I can't always watch it when it's on...because...I'm a working girl. It repeats at night on cable, but seriously, I can't stay up that late. So there is a website called soaps.com and I'm pretty sure it's going to be one of my new best friends. It has daily recaps, soap star info, surveys, and spoilers. If I can't watch the show, soaps.com is definitely the next best thing. I won't lie, I've been to the shows official site, and it's very cumbersome and takes a lot of time to load just the first page. If I had that kind of time, I'd have time to watch the show. The soaps.com site for Days of Our Lives is extremely easy to navigate, and information seems to be updated a lot more frequently. Go ahead and give it a whirl...I know you are dying to find out who's skeleton it is...and who will get custody of Claire...and who Mimi is now dating...what the heck Sami is scheming to do now...and if there are aliens ruining the lives of Salemites...or if Marlena is posessed...or has amnesia...or is being stalked by her evil twin. Check out soaps.com for all the DOOL scoop! Like sands through the hourglass, so are the Days of Our Lives.

Slowly...but surely...


I'm trying to be more diligent with the blogging. In fact, it is my hope that I will be able to maintain a better schedule now that I have been approved for Pay Per Post...keep those fingers crossed!! It works in your favor really because I can do PPP twice a day with a "real" post in between. Just an FYI...I will be doing the PPP's in a different color (I'm a copycat-thanks Drewbie!!) so my blog fans can differentiate between my insane prattle and the advertisements. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't read them...because I may still infuse some of my wit and wisdom...how are you going to know unless you do read them??

But thus far things are swell...work has been a battle...there are a lot of things going on...but I'm surviving!! I missed the first half hour of American Idol last week because I didn't get home from work until about 8:15 or so. The joys of having responsibility!! My plan, once I've finished this post, is to run to the fridge and enjoy some fresh, crisp, delicious, brewed beverages (not tea!!) of the alcohol ridden nature. Then I will park my carcass in front of the tele and watch several hours of "Must See TV"...Paul Reubens is on 30 Rock tonight...so it cannot be missed.

I want to touch base on some items that I've neglected recently...for which I am ruefully apologetic. Wait...what does that even mean? Where's the beer?

Gilmore Girls:
-Hi...what the HELL kind of gestation is Lane going through? I know she's having twins...but are the twins having twins?? Girlfriend is huge!!!
-I want Rory to break up with Logan...very badly. The whole mess with Lucy has me mad, and I think more and more that I hate Rory because of Logan.
-I've been bad and read several "spoiler" type items that I won't allude to...but I wish I'd never read them. I can't say what they are - so don't ask.

-I hated the custody battle scenes the other night...I just want to slap April's mom! SHE was the reason Luke let Lorelai go in the first place (because she didn't want her around April)...then she lets the lawyer use the fact that Lorelai and Luke's relationship didn't last be fodder for her argument that Luke shouldn't have partial custody. A big huge WHATEVER?!?!
-I hate Christopher...he's such a loser!!!!
-Poor Richard!! Ugh!!! This does NOT make me happy!!!

American Idol:
-Don't get mad at the judges. Seriously, I've wanted to rip my own ears off several times with this year's auditions. Get mad at the producers who put these people through...but get madder at the parents/guardians/relatives/friends who actually tell these people to audition and that they are good. It's just mean. And for the LOVE of all that is merciful and Holy...when the judges tell you that you haven't made it to Hollywood that means STOP SINGING!! It's over-you can't change their minds. Deal with it...grow up and move on.
-Oh, and the guy who auditioned in memory of his "lady friend" last night was really adorable.

-Not so adorable...the guy who wants to make David Hasslehoff cry...haa! But hilarious, and reminds me of the kid who wants to buy the platform shoes in 40 Year Old Virgin...so he's my pick for the season!!

The Donald Trump Show:
-Did Tim really find it necessary to talk about how Belushi died in detail in front of kids on the tour? I'm thinking he should have been fired for that alone...but he's my season pick so I'm glad he skidded through the nonsense that is The Apprentice LA.

XM Radio:
-Love it. Seriously...it's good stuff! It's making me like my commute...especially the early days when I can listen to Ellen. I'm also becoming a fan of Opie and Anthony...but I think it was because the creator of The Office, Ricky Gervais, was interviewed the other night and I love him. I've seen a few episodes of the original The Office...and I like it a lot...I like it a lot. He stars in another show that's on HBO called "Extras," which bases it's premise on actors that are extras in films and such. I guess it has a huge following...I've got to add it to my Netflix queue. If anyone has seen it...let me know. (**Update...I saw this last weeks episode and it is laugh out loud funny...it's been added to my Netflix queue and I'm sure it will be my newest addiction!!) At any rate, in the interview, which is unedited because it's satellite...someone asked Gervais what he thinks of Steve Carell and how his popularity has exploded since taking the role of Michael Scott when Gervais originated the role and it basically didn't do much in England. Gervais just laughed and said something to the effect of "what do I care...Carell's doing all the work and still making me millions while I sit home on my couch." Love it. I also like the way he produces shows for the BBC...or even the Extras show. Even though it's popular, he doesn't make them go on for years and years because he wants to move on to new and different projects. People who work on the shows gain popularity and as he said, like little birds he "sets them free." So yeah, I'm thinking I'm not really a fan so much of O & A so much as I'm a fan of Gervais now that I read this. I've also recently seen A Night at the Museum, which he is in...and I don't think I laughed harder than when he appeared on screen. That was a great movie-but subject enough for a later post!!


I'm a bit beat from my trip to Bangor this week...mostly because of the cold. A friend of mine asked me today if it was really bad and I likened Bangor to being a cryogenic lab. It's just not funny how cold it was up there...not funny at all!

A must have for the crapper...

I want this...I'm not kidding...my only problem (aside from the obvious animal cruelty! ha!) would be the fact that I can't really enjoy looking at the fish. Well, they would probably be making mean faces anyway. But it's really convenient if you think about it...when the fish go belly up...you don't have to worry about spillage when commuting the corpse to it's eternal resting place! Ooh...it looks like the filtration system is built right into the can...seriously...I'm not even kidding now...I want it...even with the Spongebob Squarepant accessory!!!

Happy BirthdaySSSS!!

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting


Ha!
Happy Birthday to Peggy...she's 22!! And Happy Birthday to my pal Allison, whose age I will not disclose...even if she is younger than me!! I can't wait to celebrate both birthdays! But I have to remember...it's not about ME...or is it?? :)

Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes...it's the Apprentice Intern Contest!! More appropriately known as "The App-Reese-tice!" Apparently the ratings for the Donald's show tanked this past weekend...I'm thinking people are getting sick of the anger and hate being spread around right now. All I'm concerned about is my points for the game! Ha! So, before I am accused of being a jerk and a loser...I thought I'd let you all know that questions are available now. If you lock in your answers today then you get the best chance of a bonus. If only I'd locked in my questions earlier last week...well, I'd still be smoking y'all...just more so:)

Bye bye bye, Martin!


So basically, the "it" thing to wear is a picnic tablecloth blouse under a pin-stripe blazer? I'm pretty sure I missed that editorial in "Metrosexual Monthly." My bad. OH, wait...was the boardroom on Halloween and you were going as Morris Day and the Time?? OK...I get it. Ha!


The Apprentice 6 in LA started last night, and even though I pegged him to leave...my favorite "pompous ass" is already gone. My joie de Martin began when he asked Trump if he could use the can during his introduction, of course he also offered a hug which the Donald immediately resisted to Martin's dismay. I immediately hate Frank...something tells me he's a Yankees fan. Plus, I can't stand the way he pronounced Ivanka's name. "Eye-vahnka." He's loud and rude, and I'm hoping he hits the pavement soon. I could not believe his reaction to Martin being fired...if I were Trump I would have told him to get lost too. I'm telling you...he reeks of Yankee-fandom. I have a hunch.
Since when is it ok to wear brown shoes with a black suit? Did he just swipe this from Martin as he was leaving?



There are a lot of changes this season...most glaringly the absense of Bill, George, and Carolyn in the boardroom. Trump is sitting with Ivanka to the left, and in a Survivor-like "change the rules when I feel like it" twist...the winning project manager will join him in the boardroom on his right. Vewy twicky, Donawd. The chick who won last night went in with a strategy to eliminate the stronger contestant, thus taking the advantage with a weaker candidate returning to the tents in the Valley. However, Donald gave her a big, Dana Carvey impersonating the elder George Bush "Not gonna happen." You may have just read over the last few sentences...tent? What? Yes, fellow Apprentice pals...the losing team are full fledged backyardigans this season. No fun pool, no ac, no beds, no electricity, no fancy kitchen...just them, sinks that don't drain, and a possibility of rats. Incentive to win...just a little. Also, the trademark Yahoo! HotJobs Cab is gone...probably looking for a hot job.

My first laugh out loud moment of the show was in the opening when Donald spoke to Melania on the phone, Barron gleefully giggling in the background. Please. Please! It was so fake it was hilarious. Someone in the sound department needs to get fired!

I'm enjoying this season already...and it's not too late to join "The App-REESE-tice." I'll win anyway...so just join for the fun! Haaa!
