Is it just me, or is the US news dragging stupid stories out for WAY too long?

This 'Runaway Bride' crap is so retarded, and yet CNN, MCNBC, and every other friggin' "news" channel on TV have extended this trivial story (which, btw, isn't even local channel news-worthy..much less nationwide news-worthy) for more than a week now. The woman isn't attractive, her husband's not rich or famous, and NOTHING F***ING HAPPENED! What a crappy waste of network money and my 2 minutes of attention. Isn't there a war going on or something? Shouldn't CNN be reporting all the GOOD we're doing in Iraq and Afghanistan? F*** the news.
And, why the F*** are the Backstreet Boys back on the airwaves?! I leave the continent and things all go to shit!
Anyway, that's my rant.
We're scheduled to look at our last option (we get two) for GHRP housing tomorrow - and I have my last Italy-based OB/GYN appointment. We really don't want to look at the house, but we've got to turn it look at it to turn it down, so we're gonna do what we have to do. I'm still hoping to squeeze in a spot for us in tomorrow's Lamaze class. The stupid appointment line is a piece of crap and I never got through to make an actual appointment. Thank god I wasn't in any actual trouble or anything...
Janel and Xander came and hung out with me today and we played with the animals in the backyard and then went out to run some errands. She's pretty bummed that Nick left today, understandably, and I could always use the company. She ended up buying 'Phantom of the Opera' and we attempted to watch it (it was kind of hard with Xander yelling and Gabby and Onyx messing with each other the entire time). Exactly one week till I leave - the countdown begins!
