Chit Chat

At this point, I just hope the commercials are good! We'll record the game and let it get ahead, while checking the score online occasionally. Depending on how it's going will determine if we go back and watch it or not. I may have to FF the game and just stop to see the commercials! We rarely watch the halftime show anymore. Recording the game and deciding later whether to watch it is the way to go if you loathe a particular team. It's less stressful that way!

I'm pretty far behind in my viewing, so I just watched this one today. All things considering, I thought that $125,000 wasn't bad for the land they purchased. I'm kind of surprised that the house ended up costing $850,000 to build though. I know that prices for home building supplies went up after covid, so I'm assuming those things haven't come down very much. Of course, if they went high-end on everything, that'll eat up your budget quickly! I don't begrudge them getting everything they want though. Might as well do it the way you want to if you've got the money! The house they built was pretty, but I didn't care for the kitchen countertops, or the bedroom being right off of the living room. Barn doors can be pretty, but I don't care for them. YMMV. When I see a wall of windows, my first thought goes to how energy efficient they are. I'm sure they got the best of the best, but it's still a wall of windows. We had some windows replaced recently that are supposed to be of high quality. I can tell a difference already, but when that temperature dropped down in the teens the past few days, there's no window that won't feel cold and radiate it too! Brr.

I thought so too. The third home had terrible views! It felt like a big box with a few windows in which you can see the building next door. I have to have windows and a view! I was afraid that her friend was going to talk her into that one. I'm glad she went with her gut and bought the one that she knew was best, not what her friend wanted. Maybe the renovations won't be as bad as her friend kept suggesting they'd be! The town where the third home was looked really nice. That whole area was pretty.

A kinder, gentler sport! 😁

I think so. She said this after Bruce couldn't muster the courage to donate blood: "Was it fun to watch Bruce break? Yes. Will I tap into that memory repeatedly over the coming years, maybe even in a sexual context? Absolutely." (It's at the 10 minute mark in the show). I had to go back & rewatch it to make sure I got the dialogue right!! I love Joyce too! The only actor I was familiar with is David Alan Grier. I had no clue as to which shows the other ones have been in, but I'm liking all of them! I think they make a really good ensemble.

Matt kept yelling for the patrons to park on their own side. Then, later on Ed came in and said that the receptionist quit due to Matt's constant yelling. So true! Maybe one of the guys at his shop persuaded him to get one. We once had an Amazon Echo sent to us free with our order from Amazon. It's still in the box! Maybe he got it free and decided to use it.

I thought it was funny. The sex partners form was a little over the top, but it made me laugh. I'm trying to figure out if Serena's scrubs are actually a jumpsuit. It looks like it on some closeups. I remember way back in the day when jumpsuits were popular, and boy are those a bitch to go to the bathroom!! Maybe it's a scrub top & pants, but it sure looks like a jumpsuit.

After watching the Commanders vs. Lions game last night, it actually made me feel a little better about the Bucs' 23-20 loss to the Commanders. They did something right to hold them to 23 points! FWIW, we were rooting for the Lions since they've been underdogs for a long time. Sorry about that, Lions fans. It was an exciting game though.

That's where Matt's optimism and naivety come into play. Alex knew they had a snowball's chance in hell of getting those inmates to reconcile, but she felt sorry for Matt and decided to help him. Out of the handful of new shows I'm watching, this one is my favorite. YMMV. :)

In the south, it's either 'hey you' or ' hey y'all!' That should cover everyone! 😁

He was probably reliving a moment from his teenager days. It was fairly easy to get back in the day. Hopefully it won't constantly be a "him" vs. "them" kind of show, but I found some of his comments quite amusing. I'm sure he and his daughter will find a happy medium at some point. His house on the show is quite similar to the Home Improvement set. The kitchen looks almost identical to the HI set.

I don't like the way these 2 women are written, and I posted that soon after they were introduced. They're a freak show compared to the rest of the show. If that's the case, then TPTB got it wrong! Many of us women like the "mechanics" of sports and in particular, this show and their depiction of the oil industry. Taylor Sheridan has offended many women with his portrayal of Ainsley. He needs to keep his teenage fantasies to himself.

It wasn't always this way. I think that modesty went out the window a long time ago. Sigh. If I had a daughter, there's no way she would've been allowed to dress the way I see some of these young girls dress themselves.

Tommy said it best when he told Cooper to move slow with the relationship. "Ariana is hurting in a way he can't understand and she's trying to find somewhere to put it." Perfectly said! He probably needs a tetanus shot after that!

Bama beat Notre Dame for the title in January 2013.
