Goodness, I haven’t had this much of a blogging “dry spell” since Capt. UberHusband left for Iraq. Usually during the summer I blame my less-frequent posting on lousy TV options but this year…eh, just lazy. Not much to talk about.

I’m sure none of you want to listen to me complain about how I’m doing all the work on my Org Behavior team project because the guys (literally, I’m the only chick) are patently clueless. Seriously. 3 out of 4 still don’t understand the point of the project and we’re three weeks in, with two left to go.

Actually, I do have some television to talk about…Big Love returned last Monday after a year-long hiatus. Back when CU returned from Iraq, we bought a new LCD TV for our bedroom and after hooking it up to the cable, found out we somehow were picking up our neighbors’ Comcast On Demand feeds on various channels. In the mornings it was usually Nick Jr. shows or FitTV but after about 9:30 PM…bow chicka bow wow…the “adult” entertainment came on, as well as reruns of Entourage, Big Love and The Sopranos.

Anyhoo, that’s how we discovered Big Love…it’s what the neighbors were watching. After a couple of episodes we were hooked and after we also discovered the brilliance which is Entourage, when we switched to Dish Network, we decided to keep HBO. By the way, whichever neighbor of ours watched the “adult” entertainment…he/she fast-forwarded through all the dialogue. No joke.

The one funny thing about this season of Big Love is it picked up two weeks after Barb’s disqualification (Damn you Rhonda! Damn you!) from the Beehive Mother of the Year contest…even though the last season ended a year ago. What does this mean, you ask? It means the “little kids” are clearly no longer little, as Teeny clearly looks a year older. Funny though…Ben looks younger than he did last year…and Sarah…has…um…filled out. I continue to love Nicki and we now know Wanda is several marbles short of a handful of marbles.

What else is on our summer viewing schedule? Entourage (of course), The Closer, Last Comic Standing (if you want some vintage snark, check this out), The Starter Wife…and…yes, I’m watching Army Wives. CU watches it with me so he can point out the technical inaccuracies (”The wives don’t have to buy the filters for the gas masks, that stuff is issued to you at the CRC.”) and I watch it so I can laugh at CU when he points out the technical inaccuracies (”Aww honey, I would have bought gas mask filters for you if you needed them, too.”)

To wrap up this post I’d like to provide you with a quote from Will Smith: “I’m going to be so sexy when I’m older. You have no idea.” Thanks for sharing, buddy.
