LOL

This is why I don't ever want to have kids of my own, much less two of them.

Our Newest Disney Princess!

Okay, so I know I'm seriously late in the game, but I finally saw Tangled...

It may have just been one of the cutest movies I've ever seen. I honestly thought Rapunzel, would in no way be able to compete with the classic Disney princesses like Belle, Snow White, Cinderella, Ariel, and Jasmine, but she definitely fits in with all those girls. I was a little skeptical when I heard that Mandy Moore would be voicing the character, since we all know that Mandy Moore has done her share of flops, but her voice fit in so well. It honestly made the character more innocent, and she really did put allot of emotion into her voice. I honestly think my favorite part of the whole movie though was right after Rapunzel leaves the tower and she has all the conflicting emotions about how she was a terrible daughter and how she never wanted to go back. I cracked up, that was honesty just so perfect. The leading man wasn't some prefect Prince Charming either, he was arrogant, and a little off putting at first, with a good heart. All in all, I really loved pretty much everything about this film, and Rapunzel is very much one of my favorite Disney princesses now.

Keeping Up With The Kardashians

Keeping Up With The Kardashians, has been a constant in my home since the show first started airing in 2007. At first I kind of thought the girls were just more heiress party girls, like Paris Hilton or Nichole Richie but after watching five seasons and now moving into their sixth, I honestly think these girls are some of the best role models for younger girls. Sure one of the only reasons they became famous was because Kim had a sex tape released but what she does in her private love life is no one else's concern, she didn't release it, but she did take advantage and made her self something off of it. What else could she do, the damage had been done?! The media found out what they could during her initial 15 minutes of fame, found out about their father being the lawyer on the O.J Simpson trial, found out their stepfather was an Olympic gold medalist, and found out she had two crazy sisters and the E! network, turned them into something huge. They are some of the most recognizable media figures today. I even think they've matured some through the show, in the beginning they did kind of just seem like dumb party girls, but I wouldn't call turning themselves into a brand, dumb. It was smart, and now their on everything. Their making the most of their time at the top, by coming out with  as many products as possible, and airing all their personal drama for the world to see on t.v every Sunday on the E! network. There are two things I dislike about the show, and one would be mama Kris Jenner...

Am I the only person who watches this, and just wonders how not only is she still married but why don't Khloe and Kourtney hate her?! I mean she obviously favors Kim above her other children, she even got a face lift just for Kim's wedding, why not for Khloe's? It may not even be that she favors Kim, she just prefers the kid who brings in the most cash. Also she is horrible to her husband, she treats him like an assistant, and after watchign that last episode where she said she wanted to change her last name back to Kardashian, I mean WOW, that was the most insensitive thing anyone could have done. I mean she divorced her first husband and remarried, she has no claim to the Kardashian name anymore. And to find out Bruce wasn't even in the family hall of pictures and he had no pictures in her office like her first husband does, how messed up is that?! This is one of the few reasons that, despite her brash and sometimes crude behavior, I really like Khloe. She pointed all that out to her mother, and voices what most people would never say to their mother. She called her a groupie, which is what Kris seems to be. I can be fair and say that the girls probably wouldn't have their empire without her though. The second thing I dislike, Robert Kardashian...

That boy is just plain lazy, all he does is live off of his sisters. I honestly can't even believe Khloe gives him an allowance. But I guess, why does he need to be driven at all, when he can just live off his family name. Jeez! Someone needs to smack some sense into that boy!

Despite a lazy brother and sometimes unfair mother, Keeping Up With The Kardashians, has and still is one of my favorite reality shows. I can always tune into whenever I need a good laugh since these girls always seem like they are up to something nuts. You gotta love them!

A Forever Family Favorite!

A show that I can watch over and over again no matter how outdated it may seem to my generation, is definitely Roseanne! A show about a working class, blue collar family, that uses humor to get by. I can honestly say this may be the only show in history to ever acuritely portrayed real families. The mom was not a size 2, beauty, the husband didn't always bring home the bacon, and the kids were in no way perfect or just constantly cute, everyone looked real and had real problems. From financial troubles, spousal abuse, child abuse, teen sex, teen marriage, live in boyfriends, and crazy grandmas.

Roseanne Barr and John Goodman, play heads of household, Roseanne and Dan Conner. Neither are the perfect, have every answer, parents we see on television now, these two were sometimes just as clueless as the kids themselves. Becky Conner, the eldest Conner kid, was smart and considered the golden child by her parents until she married her slacker boyfriend at the age of 17 and moved away from the family. She was portrayed by two actresses, Alicia Goranson originated the role, but was replaced by Sarah Chalke during the shows last four years.Sara Gilbert played dark and sarcastic Darlene Conner, is every parents worst nightmare. She started off as tom boy, progressed to a depressed and witty teen, later became the first Conner to leave for school, and ended being married and a mother. D.J was the typical only boy child, living in a household completely dominated by women, he was weird and kind of freaked everyone including his own family out.

My Favorite Character...

Portrayed brilliantly by Laurie Metcalf, quirky and loyal Aunt Jackie is the sister/aunt you can always depend on. She's the first one the kids would go to when they have some big news, and they need help taking to their mother  She has had numerous careers, boyfriends, random hookups, and the best one liners. This is definitely one of my favorite scenes...

(Not Mine!)

The show aired from 1988 to 1997, lasted nine seasons, and 221episodes. It still airs on TV Land, The Oxygen Network, and Nick at Nite. It was a favorite of my mothers, is a favorite of mine, and even every one of my siblings can watch this show and still laugh about all day. They really may just be the most realistic tv family ever, and I love watching them. 

A Movie I Can Watch Over & Over Again!

The Birdcage (1996), an absolutely hysterical, well written, and slightly unconventional film, about a gay couple reluctantly toning down their flamboyant lifestyle for one night, when meeting their soon-to-be in-laws. Quite possibly the only film I can watch repeatedly, and never tire of it. It's crazy and quirky cast of characters have seriously never failed to make me smile, and being set in South Beach, Florida makes it all the more amusing.

The Funny Men of The Birdcage

   

Robin Williams & Nathan Lane portray the Goldmans. He owns the drag club downstairs, while "she" stars in the the clubs big show as Starina.

   

Hank Azaria, plays the Goldman's faithful houseman Agador and Gene Hackman takes the lead as head of The Keeley clan, a family "right-winged moralists", and coming off a scandal of their own, journey to meet Armand "Coleman", his "house wife" and "butler".

I was introduced to this film when I was still a kid by my mother, who like me, loves the film for all that it is and even now when I find the rare occurrence of it airing on cable, I just have to watch. Whether it's on AMC or TV Land's ever amusing, edited version. I never knew that a network would go so far as to actually paint bikini bottoms on a person, I was watching one day and wondered "Hey, where did all the asses go?!". I honestly think this a movie everyone should see, all of the actors are amazing and there is not one boring part. You'll laugh, till it's over, and still after. 

Pointless Post

There really is no really behind this post, I just really miss these little guys. What ever happened to all the Nickelodian  cartoons from the 90's, they were Fabulous!

Look at his little face!

It never mattered how old you were, Tommy Pickles, could make everyone smile. He was devoted and loyal to all his friends, he always had a screw driver stored in is diaper for when you needed it, and her knew everything there was to know about Reptar.  

I miss you, you bunch of Rugrats!

Why I love Netflix...let me count the ways.

This month I signed up for a free trial of Netflix and I love it! I am on the third week right now and have begun to debate whether I am going to be keeping the service, and I think I am.

For $10 per month we get to have one movie out at a time and we can watch unlimited shows and movies from 3 computers. This has been by far the very best feature for me, since I am always on here I miss a lot of tv but now thanks to Netflix I have been catching up on a few of my favorite shows.

My favorite show which went off the air last year is Monk. I actually had caught on to this show in about the 4th season and had missed many episodes. Now I have caught up all the way to season 5 and only have 3 more to go. Being able to watch these episodes when I take my breaks from working has been so nice.

That's why I will be keeping our membership. I think it's a really great deal for only $10 per month!

Relaxing.........................

Relaxing......................... that's what I am going to do this whole weekend!

I swear this week was so incredibly crazy, there was so much work to do and I never even had a chance to break out the remote control. I managed to get some tweets in for a few giveaways but other than that, did not get a chance to enter any new ones. 

So that is the kind of relaxing that I plan to do this weekend. I want to grab the remote, find a mind numbing TV show like The Real Housewives or maybe one of the really corny lifetime movies and while I half watch I want to blog hop and enter giveaways. A lot of the Valentine giveaways are ending this week and I want to get as many entries in as I can. 

I did win an INCREDIBLE and I mean INCREDIBLE giveaway this week and I will share that with you this weekend. It was my only win of the week but it is a doozy and I am completely excited waiting for it to arrive. 

(please let it get here soon)
