Week 12
I know it is a little weird but.....I like to watch Dog The Bounty Hunter. It is so cheesy. But the reason that I like to watch is that Dog reminds me of my oldest son. The estranged son. The son who is the father of the kiddos that I am raising. This son is tall and lanky with a bit of a belly. Just like Dog. His face is haggard. He has a history of jail. Just like Dog. And he used to wear his blond hair in a pony-tail. Just like Dog. But unlike Dog, his is real hair. Not hair extensions. And like Dog he has tried his hand at working for a couple of bails bondsmen. So there. Now you know that I am a little bit weird.
When stopped at a stoplight, I.....look around to see who is stopped beside me and what they are doing. Or glance down at my phone to see what it is doing. I don't text and drive but I will answer a text at a stoplight. Now that I have a new Droid Mini, she reads me my texts and I can answer while driving. But mostly I like to see who is in other cars and imagine where they are going.
My guilty pleasure is.....potato chips and sour cream. I have pounds and pounds that are resting right here on my hips (and thighs and stomach) that are directly related to loving to drown my sorrows in potato chips dipped in plain sour cream. Yum!
My favorite way to unwind is....a cocktail or a glass of wine, cheese and crackers and a bowl of green grapes. And Army Wives in the DVD player. Every Saturday night when my youngest son, Justin, comes to stay I head to my bedroom, close the door, and unwind. Just like this!! Thank you Justin.
Now I am on my way over to Nicole's blog to see how everyone else Finished These....care to join me?
Potato chips and dip is so yummy. I love plain potato chips in ketchup with black pepper. Thanks for joining us again this week, it's so fun to read your responses!
ReplyDeleteBlack pepper and ketchup. Now that is weird. I will have to try it.
DeleteI like your guilty pleasure; I think we all need something like that. Glad you have one night you can unwind a bit!

It is good! Usually I am sleeping with one ear pealed to his coughing just in case they need me!
DeleteI bought a bag of Lay's potato chips last week. It's been FOREVER since I had any...they sure were yummy and I sure did feel guilty for how many I ate. You can't eat just one, ya know.
ReplyDeleteNever just one!
DeleteLife wouldn't be the same without guilty pleasures! Mine is Judge Judy but don't tell anyone......X
ReplyDeleteAh Judge Judy. How much better would this world be if there were real Judge Judies out there handing out justice?
DeleteI used to watch Dog all the time. I haven't watched it in a few years though. I also look around at other people who are stopped at the light. You catch people doing some funny stuff.
ReplyDeleteI don't watch Dog anymore either. I don't need to fill that fantasy of him being my son
