This past episode was a tad bit blah for me. I don’t know if everyone else felt that way, but even with all the maneuvering around, and blindside talk, it still felt a little sluggish. But, that is to be expected at this point in this season especially, where every week it just seems to be the same focus on Abi being a b*tch and Lisa not knowing what she wants to do. Ok, we get it, Abi’s stupid and annoying to be around and Lisa is crazy and can’t remember that she’s playing Survivor and it’s ok to vote someone out. Let’s just get on with the season already. Let’s talk about something new already. I think this has just felt like a seriously extended season of Survivor. Does anyone else feel that way, as well? I feel as if every other season of Survivor has been done and voted on at this point. I don’t keep track of how many episodes this has been, but this has to have been the 307th episode … Continue reading →

Well, I didn’t win the $550 million Power Ball jackpot. I didn’t even come close. So, just like millions of other people across the United States, I wasted my money that I definitely could have used for something more important/necessary in my life. But, we’re all dreamers these days, aren’t we? Geez, can you imagine what you would do with that kind of money? What would the first thing you’d buy be? A car? A house? Pay off your debt? Give it all to charity? That last one was, of course, a joke. I would find it hard to give any of that money away if I ever won it. Sure, I’d have no problem buying some family and friends a car, or maybe telling them that any time we ever go out in the future, it’s on me, possibly taking a group vacation to the Bahamas or something. But, I couldn’t imagine just giving someone, or some charity, a check. I don’t want that to sound rude, but where would it stop? How do … Continue reading →

First off, let me start with a disclaimer.  Do not drink “Hallowine.”  It’s an apple and pumpkin wine, made with cinammon and nutmeg spices.  I should have known not to drink it the second I read the cork and it said “Illinois River Winery.”  I live in Illinois, and this is NOT wine country.  And, I’ve seen the Illinois River, it’s not a sight to see.  Chances are, it’s not even a winery, they just dump buckets in the River, throw the water in a strainer, boil it with apples and pumpkin seeds, and throw some cinammon and nutmeg into the bottle once it’s “finished.”  Although, if it means anything to you, I drank the entire bottle.  That’s just how I am.  I commit myself to drinking whatever I put in front of me (except warm apple cider & microwaved cognac).  Seriously, though, don’t f*cking drink this stuff.  I’m sure the Illinois River Winery owners are great people, but they really messed it up on this.   Ok, secondly, Happy Thanksgiving!    Third, we had … Continue reading →
