The Week End Review

The week started off nice with the end to Amazing Race on Sunday night.  I was rooting for Margie and Luke till the end, but sadly they came in third.  It was still nice to see them finish in the top three.

It was not a good ending to Brothers and Sister, which had it’s season finale right after.  It was extremely uneventful and I have a feeling this show will be canceled very soon.  They just keep pushing the characters around in the same old scenarios and nothing really exciting is happening.  Ken Olin needs to light some thirty something into this show and do it quick!

Big Bang Theory had its season finale on Monday night.  Still loving this little sitcom and hope to see it continue!

On Tuesday, I was finally able to snap photos of Scabby the Robin when I came home from work.  This is a sad little robin that seems to live on our property.  He can’t fly very high.  He’s so ugly, he’s cute.  I always feel sad for him, but he holds his own with other birds in the yard.

We skipped American Idol on Tuesday because Netflix delivered Underworld 3, which was released  that day.  Great film as part of the trilogy, but I didn’t enjoy it as much as the first two.

On Wednesday, there was more good news.  Stealing Wishes had received another 4 star review on Amazon by reader Cheryl Anne Gardner.  Cheryl writes for an indie author site called PodPeep that I frequently visit.  You can read her full review there.

On Thursday, I said good-bye to J that morning.  He was off to work, and leaving after work to drive to Springfield, MO for his aunt’s wedding on Saturday.  I was unable to go due to scheduling conflicts at work.  So, I have the house to myself this weekend.  And outside of dinner with a friend on Friday night, I plan to spend the majority of the weekend writing.

Thursday night I watched Survivor.  I’ve grown so tired of this show and don’t pay much attention to it, but was glad to see Coach go.  I never liked him.  Hell’s Kitchen also ended on Thursday with Danny as the winner, who I never would have plugged from the beginning to be the last man standing.  Oh well….that means both Survivor and Idol will be coming to an end and my favorite show, So You Think You Can Dance, will be starting…next week in fact!

I also rented The Curious Case of Benjamin Button this week.  J refused to watch a Brad Pitt movie outside of maybe Interview with a Vampire.  I like Cate Blanchett though and enjoy a good supernatural tale, so we’ll see how it goes.  A friend also suggested I see Shortbus.  It should arrive today.  I love Netflix.

And that’s my week end review this week!
