I went to the PARIS hotel in Las Vegas!

Today I went to the PARIS hotel in Las Vegas and had lunch. I had a croque monseiur which is a ham and cheese sandwich with bechamel sauce served hot with melted swiss cheese on top. Oh my god it was heaven. It was so good. There is a place in Seattle that serves them, but it is pricey. This was like a French cafeteria. It was fun. Then I did some shopping there, but there prices are high for the tourists.

Watched King of Queens Season II Tonight!

Tonight I watched King of Queens Season II that my brother Bill gave me for Christmas. I love KIng of Queens. I think it is funny and I like the relationship between Carrie and Doug on the show. The older shows are classics to me and I love watching them right before I go to sleep. I used to like to watch 48 hours Mystery on the weekends before bed and I ended up thinking too much or I felt bad for the victim of a crime and could not sleep. I try now to watch something peaceful or funny before bed. I like Leah Remini and Kevin James they are a quirky couple on the show and they have such funny arguments about nothing. Like the time Carrie said she did not want capers on her pasta and she got capers on her food and freaked because the waiter said she did not say no capers. Later, she thought they were talking about her, because they rolled their eyes, so she came home and had to fixe a lean cuisine. That is a good episode from Season II. You should check it out or watch the reruns.

How Evil Are You?

How evil are you?

Insomnia

I just saw a commercial for Chasing Farrah a new reality show starring Farrah Fawcett. I wonder if she will stare off at nothing like she did on Letterman, that was funny, but I do not think I would want to watch that long term. I am a fan of Farrah, so I will probably check it out, I love reality TV. I liked Charlie's Angels, a movie Farrah made called "The Burning Bed" about her abusive marriage, and Extremeties where after being raped she fights back. I recently read, "Paper Life" by Tatum O'Neal and she did not exactly paint Farrah in the best light. I guess when Ryan O'Neal moved in to Farrah's place and they exercised, enjoyed Super Dieters Slimming Tea, etc. Tatum and her younger brother Patrick were teenagers alone living in a beach house. The part about eating dog food was gross, but hey welcome to show business families I guess. Any Thoughts. Post a comment.

Insomnia, Insomnia, Insomnia

I have not been able to go to sleep tonight. I think I mostly have trouble falling asleep and staying asleep after I wake up or I am disturbed or something. Does anyone else have this problem? I end up watching shows like Pimp My Ride on MTV, sure I like to watch cars get blinged blinged, but gold hubcaps, gold seats, a lighted steering wheel and photo booth with printer in this girl's car. There is a TV that you can watch while driving and a bubble machine in the back. Her car came in a dull white and she left with a red pearl coat paint with a gold padded top, 6000 watt stereo and a spoiler with painted lace. I have to admit her ride did look so much better, but a little over the top and a tiny bit tacky, but of course she loved it. After watching I think I like that show where they put two mini coopers going opposite directions with a hot tub in the center and an air brushed design and smoking paint job. Just my opinion.
