  1. Sorry to hear about your situation Scorpio. I was in your shoes almost a year ago and was furloughed with 30 of my co-workers when my government contractor company didn't get an expected contract renewal. Three months later, the company hired about 20 temps (at about 1/2 of what most of us were making and without benefits). I'm in my late 40s and ageism is definitely out there. My advice is to get your resume ready and start looking but keep your job as long as you can. I have a Bachelors Degree, am a Veteran (held security clearances for over 20 years) and can't even get an interview for jobs that make $10-$12 an hour.
  2. Tasha and Khalyn are gorgeous! I don't know what it is about Savannah, but to me, she either looks really good or really bad and I can't figure out why. Smile, no smile, model pout, natural...doesn't matter to me; it's just one or the other and no in-between at all.
  3. I can't tolerate commercials every six minutes so I dvr and catch up with the live show towards the end. Must've missed the announcement about the new show preview and like a dumbass, watched it for a good five minutes thinking it was a dream sequence and wondering when the hell I was going to see someone I recognized. I thought when they ships officers were eating dinner and talking about the new land that they were going to get shipwrecked and end up being the start of the zombiepocalypse somehow. Yup, I'm that dim (like the lighting) and I seriously thought TWD had turned into Pirates of the Caribbean.
  4. YES! Bridezillas is back! I lost WEtv on my cable selection awhile back, but it showed up again last week...just in time. I loved the narrator they had during the older shows; she was a riot. So glad I found this trainwreck again; my trash tv is seriously lacking without 90 Day Fiance.
  5. Well, crap. There goes my afternoon. Started out watching Hoarders and then cleaned for two hours, took a break for lunch and now this gift from the gods is on. Avery has always been the smartest person on this show. Ramona is certifiably batshit crazy, but she and Mario did a good job raising her.
  6. Angela reminds me of Amber Frye; the gf of murderous dickhead Scott Peterson.
  7. I had multiple (18) bi-lateral PEs that almost killed me; it really does change your life. He may have scar tissue in his lungs depending on how serious the clots were. I've had 4 other clots in my legs with residual pain and decreased lung capacity; life pretty much sucked for the first year after it happened. Even if he is on coumadin (which in itself it's a hassle); there is no guarantee he won't have another clot (I had 3 after my PEs). It's not just the physical effects of the PEs; there is a psychological component of one minute you're fine, the next you're in life-threatening danger but then sent home with a pill and a kick out the door; it's a complete mind-fuck. There aren't a lot of "does" on the strip but there are plenty oh "ho's"! Caleb will have plenty of animals to hunt since they are in a largely unincorporated area still being developed although there are plenty of coyotes; I have a condo right next to Lone Mountain/215 and often heard them at night.
  8. Thought I was watching Vanderpump Rules with all of the "IT'S MY BIRTHDAY" noise from Ashley. If it was your birthday, you should've done what you wanted to do and not make an ass out of yourself at the wedding. But, she got her present, more camera time. I had the curling iron Libby's stylist used; it was called "Z-crimper", and yup, it made little z's in half of your hair and came in a Lisa Frank-colored box. Wish I still had it; I'd send it to Libby for a wedding gift. It was nice of Libby to share her dark lipstick with Evelyn. Nicole looked nice, but watching her with her mom makes me so sad. Robbalee knows one wrong move and Nicole and May will be gone. (but still within ATM reach). Nikki confused me; she seems like such a strong woman, yet she was blanketed over him in such a weird way. Horrible posture, almost sitting behind him, both arms around his, yet she was spitting venom at both Chis and David. Any armchair psychologists here?
  9. Halfway watching "Our Story So Far" and Nicole's sister Ashley could be related to Evelyn's friend Mikayla...did anyone else see the resemblance?
  10. “These Boots are Made for Talkin!”. You can watch/listen on the DCC Facebook page, Mondays at 2:30 pm. Edited to add you can see the older episodes on the DCC Facebook still; just scroll down through the feed and you should find them pretty easily.
  11. Nikki is gorgeous; she reminds me of Iman a little bit. She needs to take her kids and let Chris and David Pour implode. And as someone upthread stated, Annie showed us who she really is; she's going to stay in the US and she doesn't give a rat's ass who pays for it.
  12. Someone please teach Gina how to smile and not look like a total beeyotch in every.single.picture. Love Lacey checkin' out Steven's uh...abs. Kalyssa is so pretty.
  13. It doesn't help that the freeways/tollways in DFW are ridiculous on a normal day. I swear, if someone sneezes, traffic backs up for 10 miles. And if someone is changing a tire or getting a ticket? Forget about your plans, because you're going to be in for some serious pavement appreciation time.
  14. I'd say 7-8 miles away; and I know for sure the Tom Thumb is right next to the highway (287) so I assume they'll just jump on 287 and head south...it's do-able at noon. Would love to hear about Gina if someone makes it over there!
  15. Ooohhh, K&J won't be happy with that video if they see it; what a mess. LINES....!!!....GUIDE!!! Shannon was awful; totally uninterested in any thing the girls had to say. Probably pissed someone added 30 minutes to his day and it showed. Courtney (?) tried to get things back on track, but if that's her boss, not much she could've done I guess. I liked the Facebook chats so I hope the podcasts improve because today's was shite.
  16. Me either. I still don't believe there's a Bess and a Tess. I finally know who Lexie is though...so progress! My kin are all from the hills of KY; my dad was 71 when he died and had been out of KY since he left for Vietnam at 18; he didn't lose his accent at all. I love hearing KaShara talk because she sounds so much like my relatives (I was born in CA so no accent for me). Gina - she must have a really good redemption edit coming up; like she rescues kittens from wells or knits blankets for the homeless when she's not on the show. I dislike her more every time she talks. It'll be interesting to see what prompts the discussion with Jenna; maybe she kicked her head during practice or the heat got to her, but I can't imagine she thought it would be a good idea to bring up her punishment again.
  17. The season isn't too far along; would they/have they ever cut some one during the season and brought another girl in?
  18. Figures. Not my night for tv; my hockey game was pre-empted, missed MTT, but it looks like Gina had a talkin' to, so that gives me something to look forward to.
  19. Dangit! I have to watch on the CMT website and totally forgot until 9:57 (stupid hockey opening night...love hockey and just forgot about MTT completely); does anyone know when CMT loads the show online? I can usually watch the 10:30 repeat, but of course since I need to tonight, they're not playing it.
  20. I can't remember where I saw it (Caila's IG maybe?), but there was a dance class video of Holly, Jenna, Maddie and Caila (and one other girl, but I for got who it was, maybe Victoria Kalina) and they were dancing in a triangle and it looked awesome. I'm so mad at Holly, Jenna and Erica for messing up; for all their issues off the field, they were great dancers and I feel like we've been cheated of seeing a fantastic front line. Breelan's sister is gorgeous; not sure if she dances or not, but she definitely has the DCC look.
  21. My BFF doesn't need to train in boots; she's good enough to wear sneakers and doesn't need the extra time in the boots. KelliQ was the other girl that did an eye-roll and had an odd smile after Holly was called in. I like Jinelle; always have (although I think it's time she hung up her poms and moved on...isn't this her 9th year of cheerleading here and in Oz?) but in my opinion, that wasn't one of her regular smiles. Lauren is saving this season for me; she's like KaShara 2.0; always happy, never a bad word to say about anything and seems like she'd be a riot to hang out with. Keyra is fun to watch too; they almost make up for Melissa R and Gina. Seems we saw a lot of Kalyssa during the first few episodes, but she seems to be fading into the background.
  22. Someone mentioned earlier that Jinelle had an odd smile after Holly's name was called so I just watched the re-run and KelliQ did a quick side-eye and had a little smirk on her face. Did anyone else see that? Kelli was sitting next to Kelsey, but it didn't seem like she was looking at her. If looks could kill man, Judy could put holes in walls. The way her shoulders dropped after Holly said "I don't talk to players"...and her demeanor changed...eek! I wouldn't want to be on the bad side of either K or J.
  23. Love the idea of Kitty taking over chats with my boo Gina; Kitty sees right through her cheshire cat smile. She's been in the biz a long time and can spot the attitude at a 1/4 mile.
  24. Agree with a lot of the opinions here; weird open spaces and then others are cramped together. My BFF Gina looks like she shares an arm with Keyra (is that Keyra...on my awesome Iphone 4 which is mixing some pixels) and oh yeah, I'm old. Lauren is tilted a weird direction but her smile looks nice; Maddie looks like she thought they were on a break and was resting her face, gorgeous Chantel looks really plain to me, Cersten looks pretty. Wish they'd let KelliQ have her hair short like Amy or rookie Christina. I saw a few photos of her on IN with the shorter hair and I think it looks so much better. Overall - not impressed.
