I watch entirely too much TV. I love my TiVO and I am not shy about using it and then staying up until 2:00am in the peace and quiet and watching things like "Ace of Cakes", the soap opera I have watched since I was 12 years old (I'm not saying which one because it seriously sucks these days) or any of the other shows that I like to watch and Brad doesn't.
And then there is my all-time favorite non-mainstream show (meaning one that isn't "Lost", "CSI", etc) that I like and Brad can't understand why I keep watching. It's returning for season 4 of April 15th and I.CAN.NOT.WAIT.
Is it a cooking show? A craft show? Parenting? One that has James Marsters reciting the tax code naked? Nope.
It's Deadliest Catch, the show on the Discovery Channel about crab fishing in the Bering Sea. Today I entered a sweepstakes to be one of 40 (+ guest) to attend one of the 2 Deadliest Catch Season 4 Launch parties, one of which is being held in Philadelphia on April 22nd. I'm choosing to believe that the fact that the deadline to enter is my birthday means that I am destined to be at that party.
I can see it now....drinking beer with Sig and maybe even The YummyYummy Blake.
Perhaps they'll even invite me on to their boat for a season and I will realize that my true calling is as a crab fisherman. Only problem with that is that it looks kind of cold off the coast of Alaska in November-January (and I get cold when it is 70 degrees), I doubt they'll wait while I fix my makeup, I might break a nail and I'm fairly sure that 3-inch heels aren't a good idea on a fishing boat. Other than that, it's all good!
If nothing else, I know that I can swear as well as any crab-boat captain.

My husband and five year old son LOVE that show. Watch it whenever it's on.

You do, of course, realize that wishing to hang with some sweaty smelly fishermen drink beer and telling dirty jokes is likely to have some self-righteous pompous bitches call you a "slut" right??
😉
Is it "Days"??? You have to tell me. I must know. Or GH? Is it GH??

We love deadliest catch in our house! In fact we seem to watch a lot of the shows on Discovery Channel. We love to watch Mythbusters and Dirty Jobs.
As for being out on a fishing boat in the Bering Sea, no thanks. Just a little bit too much testosterone for me and wobbling around on 4 inch fuschia high heels wouldn't be an option and I am not seeing any designer survival suits with bling. So count me out.

PS: as for having a penis - no thanks the one attached to the hub is already enough trouble for one day.

We love Deadliest Catch and the other Discovery Channel shows, too. Don't really want to get any closer than my tv set to a fishing boat, though.

My men folk love these shows too... that and Dirty Jobs... fishing boat? Nope, couldn't do it.

Just make sure you take your laptop with you. I have a feeling fishin in sexy stilettos would provide hours of blog fodder.

James Marsters might not be reading the tax code naked but he will be in concert this Saturday night in San Diego (yes, I'm thinking about going... by myself -- I am truly pathetic) and he'll be in some Lifetime movie (as a sociopath-murderer) on Sunday. Rock on, James.
