Tired

This morning while putting my makeup on, I had the TODAY show on in the background as I do most mornings. They were reporting on the latest from Bev Hills and the latest Charlie Sheen scandal. Hospitalized with chest pains, partying with adult porn stars, drunk off his ass..yada, yada. Same story...different day. It got me thinking about all of the things in the news that I am SO TIRED OF HEARING ABOUT. So here they are for your reading pleasure:

-"The Homeless Man with the Golden Voice"-Latest is his mom is begging him to go back to rehab after he checked himself out a week ago. Great rags to riches story. Goes to show the power of You Tube. After posting the video he gets a billion job offers, they clean him up, cut his hair and reunite him with his mom. Great. But if you go from owning a just a cardboard sign and a camo jacket to all of a sudden flying all over the world and getting every job offer imaginable, do you blame the guy for having a celebratory drink? Unfortunately for me, now when I hear him on the Kraft commercials talking about how "yummy" Kraft macaroni and cheese is all I visualize is him as a homeless guy and I loose my appetite. That nappy hair and snarled teeth....yuck.

-The Royal Wedding- Who gives a flip? They dated for a billion years and now they are getting married. YES..that is what people do after a billion years of dating. Enough of the "royal countdown" to wedding day. I am over it. I will not be waking up at 3 AM to watch the wedding happening live. I can only hope William keeps his willy devoted to Cate and doesn't find a heinous broad like Camilla.

-Charlie Sheen and Lindsay Lohan- I am tired of both of these train wrecks. I understand that drugs and alcohol are serious demons for most people, but I am so tired of hearing about every line of coke, every "non-alcoholic" drink they are drinking..etc..etc. The fact that Charlie Sheen is still employed and is apparently the highest paid actor in Hollywood is appalling. He is a world class douche bag who needs to be in a straight jacket for a month and fed bread and water only.

Winter blah

So apparently I am not the only one feeling the winter blah's. Aaron Carter just checked into treatment for "emotional and spiritual issues." AKA..you are blowing coke and boozing into the wee hours of the morning. Secondly..does anyone care about Aaron Carter? He is a washed up celeb who happened to star on "Dancing with the Stars." Which in my opinion that show is full of washed up celebs anyway. Brandy..Jennifer Gray....Brooke Burke..come on. The fact that Aaron Carter has checked into rehab made the People.com webpage means it was a slow news day! He is hoping to gain "guidance and cleansing" from this experience. How about to take a shower and hit up monster.com? There is a novel idea Aaron Carter.

January is such a BLAH month. It has been snowing like a mother outside and I started thinking about how I feel now about the snow versus how I felt about the snow when I was 12. When heavy snow used to fall I would PRAY to GOD that school would be canceled. No school meant playing all day in my snowsuit with my sister, hopping inside for lunch and a hot chocolate, back outside for some more snow and then inside for the night. I remember snow days being so much fun! Now when the meteorologist calls for snow, I pray that he is wrong, so I don't have to worry about getting up early, warming up my car for 15 minutes, snow boots and falling in the snow! It is funny how our opinions on thing change as we get older. I am SO ready for sunshine, air conditioning, iced teas, flip flops and painted toes!

Let It Snow..Let It Snow..HELL NO!

So I am not a huge fan of the snow. I was praying, wishing, hoping (just ask my co-workers) that my MBA class was canceled last night, but ALAS our teacher said that class was on. I showed up early and sat through a riveting discussion centered around Economics. Class was dismissed around 8:30 PM and as I stood in the parking lot warming up my car, dusting the snow off with my new $5 ice scraper/broom from Walmart (thanks Wally World) I realized something. I truly hate the snow and I need to move to Hawaii. My MBA is scheduled to wrap up this December (WHOOP WHOOP) so why not get my graduation on, pack up and buy a one way ticket to laid of frozen cocktails, sharks and hula skirts?

This idea sounded even better this morning as I AGAIN stood outside trying to shovel my car out from under 3 inches of snow. I really do hate the snow. The cold weather I can handle. That is what they make cute jackets, fake UGGS and gloves for. It is just the snow I can't handle. People drive like jackholes (causing accidents) while others FREAK THE F*&K out acting the end of the world is upon us. I am already tired of this weather and it is only January 11th. OY. If the ground hog predicts 6 more weeks of winter I am going to kick him in the jaw.
