The closest portrayal of a typical Thanksgiving

Roseanne is a favorite show of mine. Sometimes I feel like my life is one big Roseanne episode. Anytime they show a rerun of the Thanksgiving episodes on tv, it's like watching my own family's Thanksgiving day take place from beginning to end.
I would write more but I have stuffing/dressing, whatever the fuck you call it, to make.

Things I'm thankful for (and really, why can't we reflect on what we're thankful for every single day and not just on this one holiday?):
The Bearded Man, our families, having a job, a place to live, a bed to sleep on, shoes for my feet, food to eat. Simple things.

Enjoy today!

Life of a night owl

More and more I find myself watching TV alone late at night because Bearded Man goes to work early in the morning, so he's usually out by 10:30 on most nights, what else am I supposed to do? I've tried going to sleep when he does but it does not work for me!
As I've mentioned before, I really really love watching TV.  Especially when it includes shows that gives me an inside look of people looking for and/or buying a house, people buying fixer-upper homes and remodeling them (I'm so jealous of people on this show because I want a fixer-upper, but that's another post for another time), and shows about remodeling bathrooms, kitchens, and back yards. I change the channel when it's a show about remodeling a basement, houses in California rarely have basements, so I really don't care for those episodes.
HGTV must be keeping track of what shows I watch the most because they give me hours-long marathon of House Hunters, Property Brothers, and Bath/Yard Crashers that I crave for this time of night.

People are looking for a house to buy, they're shown 3 houses, and then they choose which one they liked best or had the best price. My only reservation with this show is when they have this childless couple or a couple with only one child and they want like a 4 fucking bedroom home. Why do you need so many rooms for a family of three? Oh, you want more children? Oh, you want your child to have a separate room for their toys? Blah blah blah, first world problems. Either way, I can't stop watching. I like looking at houses, except for track homes. Those suck ass.

They're twins! One is a real estate agent who shows you your dream home but then tells you can't afford it. But don't worry, he's going to show you what you can afford, a fixer-upper home. Usually the buyer is a whiner who just wants a move-in ready home, doesn't want to deal with renovations, and other shit "too much to do, so little time." That's when real estate agent guy brings in his twin brother who's a contractor and shows the whiney buyer that buying a fixer-upper home isn't such a bad thing. It gives the buyer the opportunity to fix their house the way they want to, given if they budget correctly. All the homes turn out to be wonderful and so much better than the model dream homes they wanted in the first place. I'm so jealous of them. I would like a fixer-upper of my own one day. Baby steps. In about five years, I'll be calling you, Property Brothers!

First of all, I cannot stand the hosts of these shows, they're annoying. If one of them came up to me while I was shopping at Home Depot or Lowe's, I'd say no to their offer of fixing up my bathroom or yard in two days as well, just like half of the people they scout at the beginning of the show. Other than that, I really like the outcome of the renovations at the end. It's just a shame you'd have to spend two days with those annoying hosts.

Ooooh, House Hunters International is on! Yay!

The Object of my Obsession and (maybe) Embarrassment

Hello all to my very first post! Whether you like this or hate it, it really doesn't matter to me. I just don't want to be so bored anymore while I watch TV. Anyway, speaking of watching TV, I love watching TV, and I especially love watching reruns. As we all get older, we try to choose our shows wisely lest we want to be judged harshly by our peers. There are certain shows that you mention and everyone seems to be okay with it, and then you mention watching another show and people are up in arms about how shitty that show is. You can never win. Not even with TV.
Which brings me to this, I've become obsessed with watching How I Met Your Mother. It all started when I didn't have cable and it was on three different channels. And now that I have cable, all I watch is this show.

 It's Alyson Hannigan, Jason Segel, and Neil Patrick Harris! They were all in shows I loved before and now they're all in this show, so how could I say no? Yes, at times it can be a very cheesy and when the fuck is that main character going to reveal who the goddamn mom is? Don't you wish you could share a cab with them? Well, no you can't, because they took up all the seats in that cab and they're such a tight-knit group of friends.  No outsiders allowed. As much I weirdly like this show, I wouldn't want to be friends with these people, except for maybe Alyson Hannigan, Jason Segel, and Neil Patrick Harris. They seem like people that I'd like to be friends with, the other two could just tag along when we all go out drinking. 
I wish there was a How I Met Your Mother marathon today. I guess I could just watch this Snapped marathon instead while I wait for the laundry to dry.
