I do my best thinking for some reason while drying my hair in the mornings. Not being a morning person, maybe the warm air activates the coffee circulating in my body and finally wakes up my brain.
The Antiques Roadshow on PBS is just as hypnotic as the Weather Channel and TV Guide Channel. Great amounts of time pass before you realize you’re still watching it, but not really watching it.
I just love my new name that JOAT's has given me. It's so fun and original - KaraMel! Thanks!
I wake up and have to kill a granddaddy long-leg-type spider every morning before I get in my shower. You’d think after their friends fail to return from their visit to the “pool,” that the others would realize the shower may not be quite the water retreat that they had in mind. Or maybe these are the really old or really sick spiders and I’m the spider equivalent to Jack Khevorkian? How horrible!
In a teaser before a commercial break, Fox 5 News Chief Meteorologist, Ken Cook, says, “A cold front is on the way. What will the dryer weather mean for you?” You better not be teasing me, Ken. Dry weather means good hair days, and that makes me happy.
My dog’s become quite the con-artist. He incessantly, and seemingly desperately, begs and pleads for me to take him outside, so you would think once we get outside, he’d get right down to business. But oh no. We have to chase bugs, eat grass, and sniff every rock. I feel like I’m on a 10 minute nature walk with an elementary school science class. Listen, Darby (that's his name), when I go to use the restroom, I don't sniff the soap, examine the toothpaste, or play with my curling iron - I use the restroom! Let's go!
I think I need to “Save a horse…”

Save a horse huh?
I always knew being a Cowboy would come in handy ;)
I love Antiques Roadshow! And someday I will take my Mom's antique orange juice squeezer on there so they can tell me it's a knockoff of a sex toy once used by Louis XIV.
The best ever was this guy that brought in an old blanket of his Grandmother's that supposedly was once owned by Kit Carson. Turns out it was one of the finest examples of some sort of early Navajo weaving, and also had an example of Navajo patchwork, and was valued at half a million, with more if they could prove the Kit Carson connection. The guy was in tears, talking about the years they struggled to eat and they had a fortune hanging on the back of a rocking chair the whole time.
You are very welcome KaraMel!
David - Yee Haw! LOL
Ben - I'd love to see your face when they tell you that it's a sex toy! And the episode you were referencing is exactly the episode I watched in the past few days that made me post about it! Too funny!
Monkey Boy - I did see one episode of Will and Grace where they took some porcelain cat to the roadshow just to get on tv and kept practicing their "disappointed looks" thinking it'd be some worthless thing, and it ended up being worth thousands. But yes, I can only imagine the junk-finders that haul loads of stuff there to have it appraised.
