Well since Marg updated, I thought it only proper for me to do the same and "return the favor" if you will. Though I wish I had something interesting to write about other than TV but I don't. So let's talk about what I know best. I've recently found that Sunday night shows are by far the best. The only things you can find on weekdays are Maui Fever and The Drew Carey Show. I don't think I need to elaborate on that thought much more. Enough said. But last night, I couldn't go to bed until 1:30am because it was one good show after another. It started off with my usual 10:00 and 11:00 sessions of Intervention. Now for those of you who don't know what this show is all about (may God have mercy on your soul) it usually involves individuals with eating disorders or drug/alcohol addictions. What I thought would be just another normal night of TV, took an interesting turn at 11:00. It wasn't just any old episode, oh no. It was about a 21 year old boy named Peter who is addicted to video games. Thats right. Video games folks. At first I thought it was only a joke but it certainly wasn't. He would play them anywhere from 8 to 17 hours straight and wore a diaper when playing.. well I may have made the diaper part up but I'm sure he's thought about it. Then during those commercial breaks, I would flip to TLC to watch a show called "I eat 33,000 calories a day!" Not only did these people eat what I eat in three weeks, but they sounded proud of it! (Well, there wasn't an exclamation point but there might as well have been after seeing them talk about the 8 steaks, 10 cupcakes, 32 bags of chips, 2 pounds of eggs, and 8 pounds of chocolate they ate that day). So you know I had to turn that shit on! And let me tell you, I never ever want to see food again. So after Peter was sent to rehab to overcome his video game addiction and most of the United States was eaten, a show called "The Smallest People in The World" came on. I knew that going from 700 pound people to itty bitty people wasn't going to be easy, but I was up for the challenge. I'm so happy I did because I think I may have met my future husband. Is it wrong to have a crush on someone who's only 40 inches tall and weighs 41 pounds? Now we all know that I'm a sarcastic bitch and you probably think I'm kidding. But I really want him. He's a primordial dwarf which means he's the smallest of the smallest. They also talk like they've just sucked up a whole lotta helium. Well, I guess I don't really care whether or not I get him, I just want one in general. So my birthday is coming up in a couple of months. Do what you can. This is what you're looking for..
Well I wish I actually had something to write about and if you've made it this far, congratulations! You made it through my ranting about absolutely nothing. Well I suppose I should go and do something productive. It's been fun LiveJournal but until we meet again..

PS: While it breaks my heart, I suppose it is my duty to inform you that Peter relapsed and is currently playing video games again. Poor Peter. Play Peter Play.
