Troubled Tuesday |

Troubled Tuesdays is basically my complaint day to complain about all of the troubles I have, which could range from what is happening on TV shows to who knows what.

I used the Magic Bullet and it did not work like I have seen on the infomercials. I tried to make S banana ice cream. I froze bananas for that reason, but they did not blend well in the Bullet at all. I guess I will try it again making something else. The bananas did not get all creamy like they do when I put them in the food processor. Maybe they were too frozen?
S has been waking up at 6 am for the past 3 days. It does not matter what time he goes to bed 8:30, 9:45 or 10:30 he is still getting up at 6 am. That is way too early for me. I prefer any time after 8, but really any time after 7:15 is okay. I have forced him to take a nap the first day, the second he fell asleep on the way home from the birthday party, and yesterday he refused to take a nap and did not go to sleep until after 10:30. Driving him around is how I get him to fall asleep, so yesterday we drove around for over 45 minutes and he never gave up. I did get him to lie down and watch a movie for a rest but that was it.
Why does it have to be so stinkin’ hot out? I mean 90° with a heat index of 96° at 11 am is a little much. I know Phoenix will have a high of like a 110°, but this is not the Southwest this is the Midwest.
Let’s talk about Glee, while I do feel bad about Cory Monteith, at the same point I don’t. My feeling is this; Glee should have released him after he checked into rehab. The show is geared toward tweens and teens and by allowing someone who had a drug habit to try and reform and come back gives kids the wrong idea. It should have been a no drug tolerance, and while it is great that he did seek treatment he should not have been able to stay on the show. Show viewers there is no tolerance for drugs and it is not okay, and you will be off the show. Just watch it come out that it was a drug overdose or a death related to drug use. If not I will eat my words.
Why is it when I freeze fruits or vegetables in ice cube trays that all of my ice in the freezer has to take on the taste of them? First I had strawberry flavored ice cubes, then sour cherry, thank goodness not broccoli, and finally summer squash.
