3 for 3 Friday

Read­ing:

Finally fin­ish­ing my copy of At the Breast: Ide­olo­gies of Breast­feed­ing and Moth­er­hood in the Con­tem­po­rary United Statesby Linda M. Blum. It’s about how breast­feed­ing poli­cies & atti­tudes in the U.S. have also been shaped by racial-ethnic & socio-economic stand­ing related to being a woman. It’s an inter­est­ing read & shows that expe­ri­ences differ.

Lis­ten­ing:

80’s. More specif­i­cally Jour­ney. There is just some­thing about Jour­ney, the big power bal­lads & the oh so touch­ing lyrics (often with an under­tone of cheat­ing), gets me every time. I don’t think the band is the same with­out Steve Perry, I mean that hair it was a rock-mullet. When times are tough you’ve got to remem­ber…Don’t Stop Believin’

Watch­ing:

Oh Bravo…THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!! I was going through Real House­wives with­drawal after my Jer­sey Girls went off the air but thank­fully Bravo knew what I needed & brought back the Real House­wives of Atlanta. It looks like the classy table flip has some com­pe­ti­tion with Sheree & Kim’s fight. Sheree does what every woman across Amer­ica has wanted to do to Kim’s bad wigs, in the pre­views for next week she pulls it & we all know that’s a “Oh No, SHE DIDN’T” Moment. Much like the beauty of the table flip.

Now to clar­ify some­thing before any­one gets offended by me point­ing out Kim’s “hair” I am NOT anti-wig. I know many women who wear wigs, some because they just like them & oth­ers for med­ical rea­sons, AND they ALL look FAB in theirs; how­ever, Kim’s looks like one of those cheap Hal­loween wigs. I don’t get it. With all the green­backs she’s drop­ping & had her ex drop for her on every­thing else you’d think bet­ter hair would be part of that. Still it’s going to get real Hot in Hot-Lanta with these ladies going toe-to-toe. So thank you Bravo, thank you for feed­ing my sad & sick Real House­wives addic­tion. I will now need to go & take a shower to get clean again.

OMG, Chris LOVES Journey! He has asked if we can have a Journey wedding! I told him that if that is the case- we are going to split it, half Journey and half Dave Matthews! Aren’t our wedding guests lucky!!

Have a great day!

I like Journey, too. However, I do not like Karoke Journey. Why, why, why do people torment people by trying to sing Journey? Seriously, those are some hard notes. Myabe I wouldn’t get irritated if I were drinking, but I’m usually the driver.

Friends don’t make sober friends listen to people croaking out Journey songs, =)

Cute blog.

Have a great day!

*Visiting from SITS
Happy Saturday Sharefest!

Great book you just finished, I think I need to read that one. It sounds interesting.

I am not really a talk show or reality show junkie, however RH of ATL sucked me in! I didn’t watch the last season but, kept hearing people talk about it. All I did was watch the pre season show and I was hooked!

Kim does need to get her hair together. Lol

However, I think they need to grow up a bit, and stop the High School he said, she said. It’s a show full of drama! I generally don’t do drama but I find it comical.

LOVE me some Steve Perry and RH. Let me say that the Housewives from New Jersey and Atlanta have the ones from California and New York outweighed in the interesting department. Can you tel that I’m a watcher? TeeHee
