i got an email yesterday from an internet galpal. essentially she said that i had converted her.

only in the fourth paragraph of the email did she detail what i had converted her to.

i am no tom cruise with the scientology gig, no madonna and kaballah…but as the email went on, she still didn’t state what i had converted her TO. she alluded to it several times, stating that i really promote this on my blog and she had wondered what the big deal was, and now, she was watching. addicted. her words.

i was tres concerned, because i KNOW that i do a lot of wiggle promotion on this site. could i have converted her to the wiggles? i only know this person from the internet, could a normal person be enchanted with the wiggles, nay, addicted? if so, what sort of person were they? could jeff murray anthony and greg appeal to the adult audience if there wasn’t the promise of child silence attached to it?

thankfully i didn’t have to ponder this one further. it turns out this brilliant girl has gotten addicted to

yes

THE AMAZING RACE.

i was chuffed. any time i can bring phantastic phil into someone’s living room i am pleased. and we’re down to the final three, with the finale this thursday evening. bye bye mojo. i actually thought jo looked a little like jude (not my jude, the other one, jude law) from some angles. didn’t mind saying goodbye to them.

don’t mind going public in saying that would be ecstatic if the hippies pulled it off, but somehow i don’t see that happening. i like rayo (ray & yolanda), we just have never gotten to know them. but she has great legs and they’re picking up speed. so we’ll see.

as for the frat boys, they’re growing on me. their comments last week about gold leafing parties at college really made me laugh. plus, they gave the hippies some flip flops, which they didn’t have to.

i really don’t mind who wins, but id love to see the hippies pull it off. anyone, when they’re faced with eating a big bowl of deep fried crickets and grasshoppers, who can come out with a statement like, "hey, i ordered the pad thai!" and "dude, you’ve got cricket on your face", is very worthy in my book.

i struck zero for two for mother’s day, anyone else not get hold of their mum? but tried, really?

i tried calling yellowknife, but the lines have been bad (AS YOU KNOW MUM) and the one time i did get through, nathan answered the phone and said, "yeah, um im just talking to my mum". so i did try, but didn’t actually get to talk to my mum.

and before that, i tried to call gran, but she was out gallivanting, as one does at 91 years of age.

magnificent and i are going for dinner and a massage tonight. cannot wait. yay.

  1. Might be better if you had dinner, then stayed in for the massage.

  2. Hey Tess, guess you’ve been busy huh?! Been following your blog for a while and am pretty much up to date on your life. Congrats on the menagerie. A couple of the little ones really have Blakes icy blue eyes. Myself, I’ve got 2 (just two)little boys. Five and two. Alex and Spencer respectively. I can safely say (and with enthusiasm) that I AM DONE! I’ve been remarried since ’02 (yeah do the math, we were bad) I’m still in the navy, but perhaps not for much longer. There’s been an opportunity for me in Alberta and it’s pretty darn good. Drop me an email so I can send off some pics of my boys etc.

  3. So sorry, Tess! I didn’t mean to keep you from talking to your mom! Will you forgive me if I tell you that I agree with you almost 100% concerning Amazing Race, the one show I absolutely will not miss? I really don’t want to see the frat boys win though – they’re just too arrogant for my liking.
