SA & TV

Hello everyone! Happy Valentine's Day (and Happy Birthday to our little romance-baby Jackie...who is currently celebrating her bday in Brussels after a mad dash around Europe for the past 2 weeks for work - poor baby)

Anyway - i'm in Denver, having just spent a week & a half in San Antonio with the fam. Here is the rundown of being in SA for 10 days.

Highlights:
Saw 5 concerts at the rodeo.
Wore my boots more than I ever have (and they're finally comfy!)
Ate delicoius rodeo food (corn dogs, lone star light on TAP)
Spent mucho QT with the fam
Had an unhealthy amount of tacos
Went on nice healthy, relaxing walks more days than i was expecting
IT was betwen 60-80 degrees every day

Lowlights:
I lost my camera
I gained 30 pounds

Now i'm back in denver for the rest of the week, and going back to Delaware next week (exciting).

I dont have a ton of new information to share with you all, but thought i would leave you with some new Television Show recs (based on my excellent taste). Maybe next time i'll discuss old tv faves (the ones i've been watching for more than the past 2 months or so)

- Make me a Supermodel (no explanation needed - this is basically a re-tooled version of ANTM, but with more realistic modeling scenarios & it happens essentially in real time. All of the action on the show takes place about a week behind when they air it. So the show tonight will feature everything that happened in the past week or so. At the end of each show, the judges pick the bottom 3 contestants, and you (the public) get to vote online or via text (like Idol) for who gets the boot. then next week, that person gets booted at the start of the episode, and the cycle repeats. Bonuses are that 1) it's co-ed, 2) it's realistic - ie they tell them they're fat, etc, 3) tyson beckford is a host. this show is on Bravo on Thursdays

- Rock of Love (season 2). Ok i admit i never watched the first season, but i saw an ep of this one in a hotel in phoenix and OMG i'm addicted. these women are absolutely insane. Its genius. They're basically trying to out-trash eachother and win the (oh so worthy) heart of Poison's Bret Michaels. There are some chicks on this show that are just wayyyyy out there in crazy town and he eats it right up. There is also some extremely entertaining fashion and hairstyles on the show. it's basically an x-rated version of the 'bachelor' (which had gotten boring anyway). this one is oh VH1 on sundays.

- How to look good Naked. This sounds like porn, but it's not. it's hosted by Carson Kressley (of Queer Eye fame). He takes a different girl/lady every episode. Usually she's a little overweight (but not always) and has major body-image issues. He spends a week with them making them realize they aren't fat and disgusting and are beautiful and wonderful and perfect. by the end of the week, he's convinced them of their hotness and they usualy agree to a nude (tastefully nude...and strategically covered) photo shoot. really, a great feel-good show. also - often times he takes them for a bra-fitting (bc most of them are squeezed into the WRONG bra) and he calls the woman at the bra place the 'bra whisperer', which i find hilarious. This show is on Lifetime (not sure of the day)

- Millionaire Matchmaker. Full disclosure - i've only seen this once and i didn't even see the whole episode, BUT it was pretty entertaining. I need to watch a little more before i give a review. but it's on Bravo also if you want to check it out.

that's all for now!!!!!!
