T.V.

So it is June. I will spare you all the woo-hooing going on in our house about coming home in 29 days. But i'm not counting, and neither is monkey. I won't tell you she put a countdown app on my iphone and shows it to me everyday with a big grin. That would be bad.. right?
But what is driving me nuts, is T.V. I miss my good shows!! Yes, i can download them. But truly, some of my most peaceful moments last summer were after the kids went to bed and I got to watch tv in peace. Well, peace minus the scramble for the remote as they snuck out of bed one by one. Saying they couldn't sleep, needed a drink, were hungry, etc. Trying to pause my favorite show... sniff sniff, that is going to come on this month and i will miss. Oh my vampires, and wolves, and so on. True Blood, i miss you. Not to mention Weeds... sniff sniff. Somehow 500 episodes of law and order, and not the good ones, aren't doing it for me. And HGTV, that was my thing, i loved it. The BBc version, not the same. There is one show, that is very good, but i can't ever remember when it is on. My poor midget is missing NICKELODEAN people! I had her weaned off Hannah Montana, we had discussed she's a bit... well you know what she's a bit of. We were done, and here, no nickelodean.. No good role model Icarly, although she too was kissing boys when we left, so who knows. She could be pregnant by the time we get back. Where are the good role models for her age really? I mean she's too old for some of the little kids shows, but does she really need to watch 13 year old girls make out on tv? Is there nothing inbetween? Of course this i write, while i am missing as Bob calls it my vampire porn.... But did you ever really watch the whole thing? I mean come on.. it's fabulous.
