I'm sitting here watching "The Amazing Race" which is one of the few reality TV shows I watch.

Oh man, I love this show! I know it's edited a certain way and I know they actively cast the show (as opposed to the general public applying) but there is always a dysfunctional couple competing. This season it seems to be Nathan and Jenny. He comes across as a total douche and she's a screamy whiny moppet. Also, Ari and Stella are really obnoxious (oh, ha! they got eliminated first LOL)

I'm totally loving the goth couple (someone and Vixen). His eyebrows are fab darling! I always have a soft spot for the family pairings too, like the Dad/Daughter and Grandad/Grandson.

A friend and I have said that we'd be great at this show LOL. We're (relatively) fit, we're both experienced travellers and we'll give anything a go. Plus, we can actually pronounce the place names LOL. I get the giggles when the competitors can't pronounce place names properly. I know it's bitchy and petty, but seriously, have these people not done any research or read an atlas in preparation for going on this show? I know I would.

In completely unrelated news. I've just received a missive text message from my boyfriend. No greeting, no sweet talk. This is what it said (direct quote): "can u get 2doz steiny 4 thurs hve invtd boys arund 4 a fw bevs". (Translation: Can I get two dozen bottles of Steinlager Pure because he's invited his friends around for a few drinks on Thursday). Oh of course honey. I live for doing your bidding! I also don't mind that you've invited them to our place, when it's the first day of your short holiday break back home (he's back for the weekend for a quick break) and I wouldn't have minded having some time together. Oh well. It's all fun and games.

Oh, speaking of fun, listen to the my new cellphone text message tone (this is what I hear when I get a text). It's hilarious and totally obnoxious. I love it!

I'm laughing so hard over your text message tone. You described it perfectly, hilarious and totally obnoxious.

I tried to watch a season of Amazing Race once but it just wore me out. All that running around and fighting made me anxious. I also don't generally love reality shows, other than Keeping up with Kardashions (I'm an E network whore, I'll watch any form of crap on that channel) and Idol. Plus, I've never traveled outside the states, so I'd be one of those people who couldn't pronounce any of the names of the cities LOL. So sad.

Have you seen this? I thought of you when I saw it (because he's your boyfriend and all).
