It’s January people, and let’s face it, it’s a boring month. Meg’s excitement over the holiday weekend consisted of re-grouting her bathroom tub (a joint project with the husband), shopping on-line for laptop batteries, and continuing her lucky streak of not having to shovel a single inch of snow so far this winter. Good times!
She doesn’t have much on her mind today but feel free to play low stakes Potpourri Jeopardy with her anyway. Shall we?
Meg is fascinated with the Bachelor, who reminds her of a cross between Owen Wilson and Spicoli from Fast Times at Ridgemont High, which is assuredly NOT a good thing.
Isn’t he so deep? Can someone explain to me how skiing with a group of ho-bags in San Francisco is worthy of a bucket list life experience? That’s all the shallow Meg needs to know.
Wait. There’s more shallow:
That right kids, the Bachelor has about 18 girlfriends right now. Why would a group of 8 year olds even be aware of this show? Moms, would you let your kids watch this? Not sure what ABC genius thought this promo up, but they should be fired, pronto.

Meg loved the Elton John/Madonna feud the other night at the Golden Globes. Elton’s hubby got into the act with some nasty Facebooking:
But honestly Elton, shouldn’t we be more upset about the dress she was wearing?
Madge, when a designer gives you a sample dress, it doesn’t mean wear it. Get the right size.

Want to see something cute and adorable?
I know! Squeal! Adele Enerson took a cheap pocket camera and arranged everyday household items around her sleeping baby to create adorable little montages!
In other baby related news, it turns out babies can read lips while they are learning language. Oops! Parents, better not let them catch you reading Go the F**K to Sleep.
Stay tuned for Meg’s next Potpourri post, where she caulks all the bathtubs in her house.

You’ve been really productive compared to me. My Christmas tree is still up and I’ve been in my PJ’s since Cape Cod Kid and Cape Cod Girlfriend left a week ago.
I never did get the dresses that squeeze your boobs. How can you breathe?

I saw that baby lady on the Today show this morning. OMG, those are cute pictures! You know I so want to put my grandbaby on the floor and take those kinds of pictures of him. However, I am just not that creative. I may have to steal her ideas.
P.S. I’ve always thought the Bachelor/Bachelorette shows are stupid. Who finds real love like that??

Okay, first of all? I’ve never watched those Bachelor/Bachelorette shows because I’m afraid I’ll catch an STD through the TV.
That skiing was just horrifyingly gross. All the spread eagling in bikinis. Seriously, who does that? Oh right, reality ho’s do that.
And you’re right. Who the hell thought it would be a great idea to bring The Bachelor to elementary school for Career Day?
And I LOVE this whole Madonna/Elton feud. I’ve always found Madonna to be a mediocre talent with an out of control ego. David Furnish was right. Her speech was incredibly narcissistic, awkwardly so.
I say, go get her, Elton. She deserves every bitch slap you can bring to the table.
And thank you, Meg, from the bottom of my heart, for sending me to our beloved Cupcake’s beautiful post about losing her father. If words could be a balm, Cupcake’s are the best medicine. Much appreciated.

I think Madonna was giving herself a Mammogram in that dress!
I just can’t bring myself to watch the Bachelor. Perhaps that I’m trying to keep my dignity as a “single” and seeing these women who have tossed theirs to the wind is too depressing.
Oh, and I’m totally on Elton’s side in the Madonna feud, but have to say that I think he has even more fillers in his face than hers.

I must say that if I had won that Golden Globe I would have talked about how great I am also and I would have talked about how I’m even better than my awesome self and that I am even better than I am all the me time.
