Commercials playing over and over again

by

LOL I’m sitting here watching late night TV as I work on the computer – again. What else is new huh?

Don’t you hate it when you’re watching TV – at any time of day – and the same commercial plays two or more times either in a row, or perhaps 6+ times during a half hour show?

Is it the television stations that are messing up or are the advertisers really asking for their commercials to be run that often? Don’t they know we hate it?

Just tonight I’ve seen the same ad for no exam life insurance over and over again! It’s nuts! There’s a few others that I’ve seen repeated several times too.





Putting Chris to bed

by

I just had to coax Chris to go to bed. All week he’s working the early shift so he’s got to get up at 5 a.m.. Yikes! Of course, Ottawa and Anaheim are playing the fourth? Stanley Cup finals game tonight.

He would have stayed up to watch the whole game if he could have, and when Anaheim took the lead in the 2nd period he wanted to. I was keeping my fingers crossed that Ottawa would tie up the game because I knew I’d be able to coax him to get to bed if the game was at least tied.

Ottawa did tie it up so he’s in bed now. That’s a good thing too ’cause Anaheim just took the lead again!

Yes you read that right. I actually left the hockey game on even though Chris has gone to bed. I don’t know why … well other than the fact that I hope Ottawa wins this game too! Hey, it’s my home town, I gotta hope the Sens win!

We lost!

by

I did end up watching most of the hockey game last night. As I said Chris and I ended up cleaning out our freezer last night due to a thawing problem we had earlier in the week so the hockey game was put on pause on the DVR while we did that.

By the time we finished throwing out food from the freezer and making dinner it was definitely time for me to relax. Now, watching hockey when I’m trying to relax isn’t all that relaxing but I did end up getting into the game towards the third period.

It was a close game with the Senators scoring the first goal, then by the third period the game was tied 2 to 2, but in the last few minutes Anaheim scored another goal and won the game 3 to 2.

Oh well, that’s ok. There’s still possibly six games left to play. Ottawa could still win.

You know, if I complain about watching hockey at this time of year Chris turns around and looks at me and says something like “But this could be the last hockey game of the year!” You know, like there’s nothing else to live for. It’s kind of funny.

Hockey Night in Canada

by

Well it’s the first night of the Stanley cup finals! Go Ottawa Senators!!!!

I like hockey, especially if it’s my hometown team that wins, but I’m not all that into watching it.

I’ve had a lot of work to finish up in the last 24 hours and I’m getting close to having it all done so I was looking forward to just relaxing for the rest of the evening. Unfortunately, since I’m not all that into watching hockey on TV I think I’m going to end up working on my sites for a while.

My husband on the other hand managed to put two window air-conditioners in and he’s now glued to the tv set. Sigh ….

If I want to relax I’m going to have to watch hockey ….

Our neighbors humorous voice

by

Oh dear!

I was about to go outside since my husband is kindly watering the flowerbeds at the front of our house, but he has a few of our neighbors circling around him.

Our neighbors are really nice, but one of the guys that’s out there now is the kind that if you start talking to him he’ll never leave. Somewhat like my husband!

I love this guys voice and laugh too.

Have you ever watched the animated series “American Dad”? It’s on on Sunday evenings. Well, this guy talks and laughs just like roger the alien on American dad. He’s a really nice guy, but every time I’m around him I think about roger the alien and I’m sure I’m smirking at him as he talks, or worse laughs!

Sometimes I have to go in the house, or to another room just to let the laughter out.
