Really, Ill Get Better

Posted on 10/30/2006 by alianora

I have this bad habit.

I think I’ve talked about it before..no, not watching infomercials..although I do that..(I also own and love a Magic Bullet blender thing. Hush).

Reality TV.

Now, normally, i dont watch it. really. The Amazing Race? Never caught my attention, honestly, although it should…Survivor? Meh.

But, every now and then, a show comes by that is just..so…trashy? tacky? silly? that i JUST CANT RESIST IT.

Last time around, it was Paradise Hotel.

It was a classic, really. Raunchy and evil and full of backbiting vile people.

I LOVED IT. It was like watching a trainwreck! EVERY WEEK! ON MY TV!

Now? It’s Making the Team: The Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders on cmt.

i..i cant help it. girls getting cut from the team for being teeny amounts overweight! girls trying to always remember to smile and be gracious! there is something so fundamentally SOUTHERN about it all.

it makes me all nostalgic, or something.

Excuse me, Kelli’s kicks aren’t quite high enough, and everyone thinks Meagan hates everyone and everything, even though she DID read the book about Jackie O! i have to go!

Oops!

Sorry for the distraction and the lack of being here, but what can i say about life in rural Alaska? Its cold, it snows, which is better than the ice, because i dont wind up on my ass.

the kids are cool, although things are pretty different up here.

“what’s the capital of the united states?”
“Alaska!”

um..not quite…

i AM pregnant, which is somewhere between wildly entertaining and OMGHELP. it was planned, we have been trying for about a year, but we didnt exactly expect to get up here to the middle of nowhere and suddenly discover that i was pregnant! im about 14 weeks along today, and according to the doctor and books and people who have done this before, the crippling nausea should go away ANY DAY NOW.

also, it seems my contact page is being weird..hmm. anyway, feel free to email me at alianoraATgmailDOTcom, and i promise ill try to be better about updating.

Success!

FINALLY. We’re back and online and functional and all that good stuff. Long story involving getting hacked by a script that sent out tons of spam emails that caused my server to fully SHUT DOWN.

i shouldnt be proud, especially because it wasnt actually my fault, but nonetheless. i killed an entire server of my host! its amazing!

regardless, we now have a shiny NEW host, new passwords, and new script protection (i hope), so hopefully, there will be no further issues.

I have much to tell you, including how Alaska is going (cold) and the results of a pregnancy test (postitive), but I shall tell those a bit later. 🙂
