Slickdeals + US Weekly = Booya!

Good news from the bayou people. Thanks to my eagle eye husband (and slickdeals) I have been receiving US Weekly, well, weekly. Jeremy found an add on slickdeals promoting a year long subscription for only $5. That's right...$5. That's like 52 issues of non-stop celeb gossip delivered right to my mail box. Hells Yeah!!! So far it's been like a great ride at a theme park...one that I never want to end. I get to find out the latest details about John and Jen, Reese and Jake, Miley and her photo shoot scandal, who's betraying who from the hills cast, and much much more. I thought about throwing out each issue after I read them, but I changed my mind thinking that in ten years or so what could be better then whipping out my July 2008 issue and re-living all of the details of the birth of Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline (Brad and Angie's twins). That day will be pretty great. So, the moral of this post...keep your eyes open for slickdeals such as this. You never know what can happen. Oh, and by-the-way, I'm looking forward to my next issue where I hope to have some clarity on this Christian Bale assault situation ....HELLO!

The Countdown Begins!

Tonight is the night. It's the moment we've all been waiting for! OK, maybe not all of us, but can you blame me for being excited when there is NOTHING on t.v. during the summer??? So two men remain, Jason and Jesse. Talk about polar opposites! I'm positive that tonight is sure to be the most intense rose ceremony ever!!! Let's take a look at our two remaining bachelors.

First we have Jason. He is my pick! I will be shocked and a bit emotional if he doesn't win Dee's heart tonight. What he has going for him: He is from Seattle, Washington (big bonus in my opinion), he maintains a steady career as an account executive, he is handsome and super sweet. Why DeAnna may not pick him: Despite his many good qualities, Dee can't ignore the fact that she would be jumping into an immediate family if she chooses Jason, since he already has a 3 year old son. I don't think this should be a deal breaker though, because she talks like she wants to start a family pretty quickly anyway. Jason, just do your thang tonight and you've got this in the bag!

The next bachelor we have fighting for DeAnna's heart is Jesse. Although I am cheering for Jason to steal the show tonight, I have to admit that I really like Jesse too. In the beginning I thought he was a super freak, but each episode he "continues to surprise me", as Dee would say. He's like a weed that keeps growing and growing on me. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever imagine that he would be entering into the final rose ceremony. Way-to-go Jesse! What he has going for him: He fun loving, adventurous, seems like someone DeAnna would never get bored with, and on the softer side, he treats her very well! Why he may not win Dee's heart: He is still pretty young, he doesn't really have an all together plan for the future...Pro-Snowboarding can only take you so far dude, and his lingo isn't quite as elegant as DeAnna's. Example: "I will be so siked if Dee picks me because I think we could have a blast together shredding it up in Breck. Dee is seriously tight, and smokin hot, and I am so stoked to have made it this far". OK, so maybe those weren't his exact words, but basically that's the way he talks. I'm not sure DeAnna is feeling that Urban dictionary.
So that is my analysis of the two bachelors. I can't wait to see who she chooses! Oh, and be sure to tune in after the final rose when DeAnna returns with the man she chose and the bachelor she sent home crying like a little girl. Good stuff!

Happy Anniversary!

It's been three blissful years since Jeremy and I were married in the Salt Lake City temple. I still remember that day like it was yesterday. Everything about June 29, 2005 was perfect. The best part is that we were able to be married on the same day, and in the same sealing room as my sister Sara and her husband Ryan. Thanks for the memories guys! Also, this is the first of our three anniversaries that Jeremy and I have been able to spend together. All-in-all I feel like a pretty lucky gal to have a guy like Jer. Thanks for being my best friend and a great husband. Here's to eternity!

Now Does Anyone Believe Me???

The year was 1999, the movie, The Sixth Sense..."I see dead people". I guess I should have expressed my prediction on this movie out loud, because no one seems to believe me that I figured out the ending before it was revealed. Did anyone else know that Bruce Willis was dead the whole time?? Well, this may come as a surprise to some of you, but I knew! Seriously!! I knew he was dead before the movie told us he was. I just put two and two together on a few clues and I figured it out. It was BEFORE this scene that I knew in my head that Dr. Malcolm Crowe was already dead. The problem with this is that I never told anyone until the movie was over...well, I didn't want to spoil the ending for everyone else. So, because of my silence I have been mocked and made fun of for years. So, let me now get to my point with this post. I feel that after last nights episode of The Bachelorette I can finally be taken seriously about my ability to predict certain outcomes. All of us who watched last night know that the lovable Graham was given the boot by DeAnna. Didn't I say that this would happen??? True, it was an easier puzzle to solve then the ending of The Sixth Sense, but the fact remains that I am capable of figuring these things out. I rest my case.

My Prediction

Who else thinks that Graham is getting the boot on next weeks episode of the Bachelorette? If you're afraid to come out of the closet and admit that you are a faithful Bachelorette junkie (like me), don't worry, I allow anonymous comments on my blog. I really like Graham, but it was pretty obvious to me after watching the preview for next week that he's the one to go, especially after DeAnna turned on the water works and admitted that she was "second guessing her decision". She is still venerable after what Brad did to her, and now I think she fears that Graham will do the same. So, as much as I hate to admit it, I think it's safe to say that like a fat kid in dodge ball....he's out! Does anyone disagree???
