busy bee busy bee

lately it seems like i can’t catch up! you know how you say to yourself “ill get to that tomorrow”? well tomorrow doesn’t seem to be showing up, big projects, possible projects, house showings, taking an idea from idea to reality, watching the wings, trying to bike and run and swim, wife time, jaxon time, eating, sleeping, cleaning the house, mowing the lawn that is growing like crazy thanks to all this rain, and this and that.

that about sums it up.

how do i fit time in for everything and when will tomorrow arrive!

i’d say its vacation time but that only makes it worse.

anyhue, that is what is going on, soon enough ill have more interesting posts for the world to see.

Goodbye Scrubs! You will be missed!

Tonight was the finale of SCRUBS, whether it was the series or the season, it is definately over. With J.D. leaving and Kelso as well I believe the show is not and will not be the same. Just the episodes this last season without J.D. were missing something. I believe SCRUBS falls in with Arrested Development as shows that were not understood or appreciated as they should have been. SCRUBS did last 8 seasons but it never really seemed to get network support because the numbers were never there.

I am so very happy that this last season was made, the show was sent out the correct way, with a finale that highlighted many different parts of the 8 seasons as well as many of the characters that came and went. (Although there was no Tara Reid sighting)

I really enjoyed the last 10 minutes. The goodbyes, and the final walk out the hallway and then we got to see the future, what was to come, the lives as they were going to be lived out. Giving us fans what we all wanted to see, J.D. and Elliott finally getting hitched, having kids, still hanging out with Turk and Carla and the Dr. Cox family.

My all-time favorite episodes are:

Season 3 Episode 14 “My Screw Up” – This is the episode where it ends at Ben’s (Brendan Fraser) funeral, it really is an amazing episode that goes from comedy to tragedy.

Season 5 Episode 16 “My Bright Idea” – This is where Turk and JD find out before Carla that she is pregnant and they stage a big congrats when Carla wants to be able to tell everyone but they already know. There is a moment at the end of the show where Turk and Carla are going over the fact that Turk has told everyone and she doesnt get to share the news but she is justĀ  beyond excited about the fact that she is pregnant that it doesn’t matter. That scene gets me. Something about the connection and the joy of finding out about your little one that is so amazing!

So goodbye SCRUBS, you were my first show, 8 seasons of hanging weekly, discovering new music, laughing and picking up new nicknames for close friends, the time was great and live well in re-run land!

Swine Flu.

Every 5 minutes I get an update of swine flu closing down this school for the week or this event has been cancelled due to possible swine flu. This has truly amazed me how as to how the media can take something, blow it up, hype up the scare and just keep fanning the flames and get thousands if not millions of people in hysterics over the flu.

I understand for some people it is serious, but so are other things. For elderly and babies/children these symptoms should be paid attention to. I dont think you need to run to the ER with a fever though.

All the media does is get the crazies to think they could have this swin flu because they do feel a bit under the weather. Then that person goes to the ER, the ER gets overcrowded with more people who think they have it and maybe one who does. The last place I want to head is the ER until I really need to, because if I don’t it seems more likely I would catch something there!

Anyways, I should have bought stock in masks 2 weeks ago, that is really what I am annoyed with!

Oh and maybe all that really is needed, is for someone to play the heck out of the COWBELL!
