nothing to do, no where to go....

I want to be sedated...
now, that is a classic song, and a perfect description of my day today...
We are sitting at home, watching a ton of television that was have saved over the last month of being gone. We have to catch up on Big Brother after dark, (comes on showtime, jeff got it while i was back home visiting). Also top chef (we call it top chief) and a ton on movies we saved since getting showtime..
So, it is off to the sofa for me. I have cleaned the kitchen and walked to rite-aid to get some toilet paper and paper towels and some razors that had on sale all before 10am.. (i know very exciting) but that is what i am going for this weekend, nothing and i mean NOTHING exciting!!!
LOVE IT!!

Common Down...

I am sad to see this come to an end. What will i watch when i am home sick? What can even come close to replacing the most exciting hour on television? What memories of the poor Hiker that contestants would over guess the price and send him tumbling to his certain death, but to only return to the show a few weeks later. And who can forget the large checks that the women would get up to write and misspell the numbers or not even know what to do with a check. And i cant forget the inspiration we had in college while watching this most exciting hour on television, to glue beer bottles on the roof of the house and send hockey pucks down. It even SOUNDED like PLINKO!!!! We had some heated games up on that roof.
And the last year for me, while i was going back to school and completing my Film Studies Degree, i watched Bob every morning. I would cheer and boo the contestants. I had visions of me on stage spinning the big wheel or even better, getting into the Showcase Showdown and saying "I think I'll pass this one Bob", to get to the better showcase where they always told a story.
I wont forget seeing the String Cheese Incident in LA for Halloween a few years back and from the side of the stage and the voice of Rod Roddy saying "Common Down"... as the cue for the band to take the stage.

Goodbye Bob... I will always spade and Neuter.
