Having No Shame

I'm sure there are times in our life when we make mistakes that we wish we could take back.

Some of us may be rethinking past errors in judgment, like voting for "W". Okay, I don't regret that, since I didn't.

Perhaps it's looking back on the ignorance of youth...like the time where, while receiving a present in front of approximately 150 people, I loudly asked my mother if she wanted to save the wrapping paper.

Maybe it's wishing we could rethink that "bartender, one more drink" comment (and being caught on tape in the back room of a bar in a rather compromising position).

Well, fans...I've hit a real low point. And I can't blame this on youth, alcohol, or political propoganda.

Tonight I watched "Gameshow Marathon".

You got it.

Lest we are in the least bit unsure we have no social life, this little gem, when taking hourly twice a week, will remind us of that salient point.

CBS has risen to new heights by gathering the penultimate in "B" listers including, but not limited to: Leslie Nielsen, Paige Davis, and Kathy Najimy. Like an oncoming train, we have to follow this disaster to (as a former acquaintance of mine used to say) its "inevitable, horrible conclusion".

So who won Round One, you ask? Okay, you didn't ask...but I'll tell you anyway. Fitting for a show of this caliber, it was a blonde. No, not Lance Bass, the alleged current squeeze of gay reality icon Reichen Lehmkuhl. No, no, no...he was beaten by Brande Roderick...a purported actress and ex-Playmate...who looked as shocked that she won as I was.

Looks like there is enough "lack of shame" to go around....

Tick tock tick tock tick tock....

That's the sound of the clock, passing time ever so slowly until vacation....

Have you ever noticed that (as we age) time seems to move faster? That is until we want it to move quickly, at which time (pun intended) it moves at a snail's pace.

We're all about being prepared for the vacation this year. About the only thing I need is a time-released feeder for the aquarium and I'm set. Already taken care of the cat, don'tchaknow...and no, she doesn't get to eat the fish!

They say we'll have a formal night, a semi-formal night, and a pirate night on the Disney Magic. Haven't decided on taking a tux. I don't dress for Halloween...but surprisingly I'm considering it for the cruise.

That's it for now. All of this talk about ticking clocks and pirates is getting me in the mood for "Peter Pan". Ironic, wouldn't you say?

A Quarter

...as in a quarter of a year since I posted last. Well, I'm back just so you can say I haven't forgotten my blog. :-)

(singing)
29 days until cruise on the wall, 29 days until cruise....
