Ok, I will admit it, the writer’s strike forced me into a torrid affair with reality TV. Actually, Laura started it and I just joined along. I think the only real show we watch is Lost.
My favorites in the reality sector are “Rock of Love with Bret Michaels,” “Hell’s Kitchen” and “America’s Next Top Model” to name a few. Laura is all about the last one, not me…suuuure.
Last night was the season finale for Rock of Love. I was so damn excited all day I could hardly stand it. Now, the show is so stupid and I know that. Bret Michaels from Poison is looking for love. That’s understandable. There were some decent looking girls to choose from and there were some busted up looking freaks. Why they let them through the door, I will never know.
The two finalists were Amber and Daisy. Daisy is a nice rocker girl and 25 years old. She had some issues, but I was still on her side 100%. Amber is 37 and has some control problems. It’s like she was everyone on the show’s guardian. She was always having to control everything and was always yelling at everyone. She really pissed me off.
Have I ever told you I never get my way when it comes to stuff like this? I told Laura that I wasn’t going to be able to sleep if he picks Amber. The final moment came and he picked…Amber. Wouldn’t you know it. Is he on crack? I am so upset. I am just wondering what was going through Bret’s head. Bret, if you are reading this, please post a comment.
Next week is the reunion. Daisy gets in a fist fight Springer style. Life is too short to miss stuff like this.
Yup, college educated Jay Gaulard signing off.

I just got back from our very expensive local grocery store. I just wanted to share a little story.
I had to pick up a few things. I am going to surprise Laura tonight with nice portobello mushrooms on focaccia bread. It’s going to be sooo nice.
I usually don’t go shopping this late on a Saturday and now I know why. All the freaks are out. The store was full of local yocals. I thought I was going to get sick while walking by a small cluster of rednecks that stunk like cigarette smoke. Yeah, have another…you just keep looking better and better, folks. They were talkin’ it up though, so at least they were having fun. Anyway, I just did my shopping with my nose in the air, like I normally do.
After I checked out and was walking through the exit, I noticed this lady following me. I was sure she was one of them, so I looked behind me to give her my, “I am different than you so stay the hell away from me, stare.” Well, right as I turned around, she says, “I’m impressed!!!” At first, I thought she was talking about my butt. If that was the case, I would have to agree. It ends up that she was talking about my reusable bags. I didn’t forget them at home this time. I instantly turned my scowl into a big smile. I was so happy that there was someone else out there in this little town who gave a damn. I could tell she had a brain. We chatted for a bit about how I usually forget the bags and how she does too. I giggled and she laughed. Then, we parted ways and I thought about how I wanted to write about this during the whole ride home. So here I am, writing about it.
You see, there is a silver lining in a lot of things out there. This time, it just ended up in my reusable bags.
Good bye.
