H2O: Just Add Water

After a week that began with all kinds of crazy and pretty much spiraled downhill from there (sing it, Patsy); at this moment in time, I’m not even sure where my camera is. With all the rain, I certainly hope I didn’t leave it outside somewhere. So no photographs to post.
I did take refuge in the Real Housewives of New York Reunion show this week, and this parody on YouTube. Unfortunately a little too x-rated for me to post it on my blog, due to language and content. But SO funny.
Kelly: Andy, these are my picture-taking glasses. I’m going to take pic-tures of everyone later. I brought some blow-pops …
And then there was Richard Lawson’s recap of the latest episde of the New Jersey mob Housewives:
Poor Jacqueline. She was wearing her little sailor costume and learning a dance to show her husband when he got home from work and making sugar pies in her playtime oven and everything was going nicely …
No images …
Saturday, June 5th, 2010I have no images today because why bore people with a picture, when there’s this parody of Real Housewives of New York making the rounds on YouTube.
Or the writing of Richard Lawson on Gawker, this line in particular made me snigger:
Then I choked when I read this:
And what possibly can top the breaking news that Theresa of Le Mansione Gaudy is declaring bankruptcy with almost $11 million in debt?

Far From the Madding Crowd
Today was a strange day of coincidences. It started with the mail, where I was in receipt of my Dear Addict, You’ve Spent Enough for a Freebie, Love Starbucks reward. I then received an email from aforementioned coffee company advising me of a new app for iPhones and iPod Touch where you can check your rewards on the go. You can actually pay using the app on the phone. Or something involving bar codes. It’s so cool, I couldn’t quite figure it out
The other day after realizing there were ways I could access Wi-Fi just about anywhere with my iPod Touch, it’s barely left my hot little hand, so I installed it. TweetDeck is another cool app. Love it. Can’t stop checking it. Hello #realhousewives, hello #addiction.

I feel preeety, oh so preeety
So, tonight after dinner and so forth, I decided I’d get a cappuccino and go to the lake and reflect on the Lion’s Den. Not THAT Lion’s Den, currently ripping Stars Hollow Owatonna asunder. The other one, the latest episode on BravoTv: The Real Housewives of New Jersey: Into the Lion’s Den.
Frankly, if we are to have a Lion’s Den in our Minnesota Nice community, I’m thankful it’s only one with nuddy stuff rather than Really Scary Housewife Danielle and an entourage of gnarly felons turning up at our Eagle’s Club Pancake Breakfasts. But I digress …
So, off to the lake with my cappucino, my iPod and my Interwebz, where I spent a very pleasant hour reading while the sun set, while more upstanding members of the community wailed and rent their Jewel of the Prairie T-shirts at the city council meeting, mourning the loss of the drive-thru McNugget’s wholesomeness. It is besmirched, now, in the shadow of the Lion’s signage. [Note to self: Buy McNuggets from Medford]

I howled with laughter at this and consider Richard Lawson’s recap some of the funniest writing, ever. I sighed with disappointment as news broke on Twitter about Manhattan housewivewife: Sonja Morgan (Sonja, how could you?) I tweeted Martha Stewart because she was tweeting about Steve Jobs and the iPad. Maybe it wasn’t the real Martha as she was sounding more like a 23-year-old geek. Techhead Martha didn’t tweet me back, perhaps the not-fake one would have?
I left the lake, went home and rounded out the evening by watching Hell’s Kitchen with all them fkn swear words.
An illuminating evening indeed.
