Sometimes you have to extend the weekend just that little bit more. Yesterday evening, me, YoCo, Minky Von Fabrege, Rachel and Marjorie had some Coronas @ South William and talked about Big Brother, scary people breaking into your house, and general goss. Then Aoibhinn and her homies came along and I ended up staying later than I should have. But I hadn't seen her forever and needed to hang out. So that was fun.
But. Do you ever wake up on Tuesday and feel like you have already done an entire week of work even though you have yet to get started? That's how I feel today.
Probably because I got up too early and decided to watch breakfast TV:
RTE 1: They REALLY need to get a breakfast show. There was some dodgy English sitcom followed by The Nanny. Seriously, who is going to watch The Nanny at 7.45am? Ok, fine, I watched it.
TV3: That said, Ireland AM wasn't exactly brilliant stuff either this morning. "How much for the steamer?" asked Alan Hughes as a 90-year-old man demonstrated how to pull wallpaper off what looked like a large, thin notice board. The steamer, by the way, was around €50. Then Republic of Loose came on and as usual, when there are bands on the couch, Mark Cagney makes a big hoopla about how he likes Moosic, knows Moosic and wants you to know he's down with it, yo.
Living TV: Bewitched! Yes!
MTV: Hogan Knows Best. Truly the worst MTV programme ever. Is it really sensitive to be showing the young Hogan guy racing around in cars since he has left a kid practically brain dead in hospital following a drunken crash and is in jail himself? Pull this programme. Now.
Sky News: interesting report with "great access" (as we were informed) from Afghanistan and an interview with some Taliban guys and scary footage of a suicide bomb. All of this was spoiled by the stupid "for queen and country" logo in the right hand corner of the screen. That said, I like when Sky News split their coverage between the studio and another setting - in this case, a British army base in Afghanistan.
E4: Music videos. I never noticed Noel Gallagher is wearing a Claddagh ring in the 'Don't Look Back In Anger' video, and forgot how awesome the Bravery's 'Honest Mistake' video is, even if they themselves look like eejits.
GMTV: High pollen count in Dover today.

Yup...I also tried to prolong the weekend. Woops...!
Does anyone remember being unemployed and it all seemed like 1 long weekend? I think I should sign on for 6 months, I think everyone should experience that at some stage. Oh on Hulk Hogan, he was on Larry King crying. Phone calls between him and Nick while Nick was in jail have been put on youtube, where Hulk is heard saying its not Nicks fault about John as John is a bad person and its God's will and Nick agrees that John was a negative person.
Paddy Alien, I'd like to see anyone wangle Una's lifestyle while on the dole :p
yeah she seems to have her own private jet, i think i took the wrong career path. im blaming DCU!!!
I opted for VH1 & VH1 classic as a quality breakfast alternative. The former had 4 hours of power ballads from 7-11 (though some of the songs status as power ballads was questionable) while VH1 Classic had 80s at 8.
I only really watch Ireland AM to get the headlines on the papers after the hourly news.
"Is it really sensitive to be showing the young Hogan guy racing around in cars since he has left a kid practically brain dead in hospital following a drunken crash and is in jail himself? Pull this programme. Now."
How delightfuly Daily Mail.
I try.
However, the programme should be pulled namely because it's shit, regardless of the glamourisation of the life of a kid who talks about racing cars, and in 'real life' has ended up in jail for it.
yeah its sad world we live in, but you know MTV will probably have him in front of the camera the day he gets out of jail. Dog the Bounty Hunters show got pulled after he used some racial slurs but was eventually put back on.
It is a sad state of affairs that he will leave jail and go back to a cushy life and his own tv show. We all know that show is going to have a new series and the sadder fact is most of us will watch it, if even to watch the first episode so we can bitch about it online and call him all the names under the sun.
I've never watched an episode of it.
Dry your eyes.

Check your facts Una, he wasnt drunk! He lost control of the car because he was speeding. Im not excusing him and what happened was a terrible tragedy but no drink was involved. At least hes serving his time unlike some other celebs i could mention. He stood up and took the blame.
He had a blood alcohol level over .02

I dont think this is gonna happen somehow. The mad wife has left him and Brookes having a nervous breakdown and why do you all care so much?? Why are you still watching it?? Who has a gun to your head?
'He had a blood alcohol level over .02'
I stand corrected, but even still it happens all the time, people die,get maimed, etc, I stand by what i said though at least hes serving his time, unlike other pampered princess' who get out after 84mins or 5 days or whatever it was. Again i aint condoning nor condemning the guy. But this stuff happens all the time, just because hes famous its news.
