I goofed

When I told you all that Tina Fey would be hosting SNL last night, after seeing the promo on NBC, I honestly thought the network was capitalizing on the Tina Fey/Sarah Palin sistahs-from-anotha-motha comparison and had brilliantly scheduled a timely guest who would make the most of the situation.

And then I found out it was a repeat and the season premiere of SNL is NEXT weekend, hosted by someone who looks like NONE of the candidates: Michael Phelps.

I guess we'll have to take off our comedic hats and put on our Olympics-lovin' hats for the evening.

By the way, what IS it with the hat talk? We keep hearing about how McCain's got to take off his Republican hat and put on his American hat. I'm confused.

We thought...we've mentioned it before...I could've sworn...

I don't even wear a hat! Maybe I should...

Anyway, I fell victim to the advertising and assumed that SNL was new, too. This wouldn't have happened in the good ole' days when the REAL TV Guide was still around. I'm not talking about the "can't-decide-if-it-wants-to-be-a-TV-guide-or-an-Entertainment-Weekly" TV Guide we have now. I'm talking about the little TV Guide that was near and dear to my heart and has been gone for a while now. I used to read it religiously for some reason...

Hair

This has become the age-old question...Why do men hate short hair on women? I've been thinking about this a lot because my current style, an angled bob, requires a bunch of fussing every morning to get it to do anything. My favorite haircut of all time, as far as ease of care, was my pixie cut. I loved that I could wash it, gel it, and be done. No blow drying or flattening or curling. Just gel and go. Very sporty. I thought it looked cute. My husband has another opinion. The longer the better is his motto. Thing is, my hair becomes an unruly, tangled, nappy mop when it gets long. If I had all the time in the world and Jennifer Aniston's budget, I'd be more than happy to grow it long and have others style it every day. In real life, I guess I'd rather go for comfort and convenience. And if you ask me, I think the pixie is dang cute. I suspect heterosexual men aren't hot on short hair, in general, because it's too much like their own hair. No matter how much jewel

Ho, Ho, Ho, How Many Times Can I Use "I'm too busy" as an Excuse?

I haven't had time to write. Work, swim meet volunteering, holiday decorating and shopping. But truthfully, I've not been in much of a mood to write anything anyway. Last night we put up the tree and Santa chachkies, and I drank my first egg nog of the season, so perhaps I'll be in a cheerier mood. Also, I have spent some time writing the annual Schoon holiday newsletter. If you happen to get a copy, treat it like a drinking game. Every time I make you roll your eyes, take a drink. Nog, wassail, Everclear. Whatever gets you through. One sure way to assist with merriment motivation is listening to Christmas carols. I'm not going to get into a debate over what truly constitutes a carol. You can "Jesus is the reason for the season" yourself until you turn blue; I generally lean toward the secular end of the holiday tune spectrum. And if you just gasped at my use of holiday instead of Christmas, go suck on a candy cane. It's my blog and my opinions. Deal.
