    Yay! Big Brother is Back!

    Can’t wait to watch the new season of Big Brother. It’s my favorite reality show. I just love to watch the human dynamics at work when you put a bunch of people together in a confined area and make them compete against each other. This season has lots of good looking young people from all over the country. I’m looking forward to watching each show and trying to forecast which one will win this time!

    Happy Fourth!

    I love the Fourth of July! It has always been the day when the family gets together and has great food, lots of fun on the water skiing and wakeboarding, and we top off the day with a fireworks show over the water. I especially love it when the fourth falls on a Friday or a Monday so we can a long holiday weekend out of it. Of course, a lot of people try to plan their summer vacation around the fourth, so the beaches are the most packed that week. But if you are young and single, the big turnout that week just increases your chances of meeting some great guys and having even more fun!

    So, Happy Birthday America! I hope everyone has a great holiday!

    Cranberry Juice

    Every woman should probably keep a small bottle of cranberry juice in the refrigerator, just in case they start to feel the twinge of a possible bladder infection. Something in the cranberry juice does wonders for flushing out the bad bacteria from a bladder. Any time I feel that warning twinge, I head for t he kitchen and drink a full 8 ounce glass of cranberry juice, cut out caffeine and alcohol for a couple days, and drink lots of water. If you catch it early, just this change in what you drink might be all you need as opposed to taking antibiotics for 7-10 days. The cranberry juice and cutting out caffeine has saved me many trips to the doctor’s office for a prescription over the years. Of course, I’m not trying to give anyone medical advice, but I wanted to share this tip that has worked for me for many years and if it helps you, too then it’s great.

    The OTHER Danica

    The problem with an unusual name is

    1. People mispronounce or misspell your name
    2. People mistake you for someone else

    My whole life people have spelled my name wrong. Its a nuisance when you go places that have volunteers or low paid staff writing your name on the “Hello! I’m ____” name badges and any place where someone being “helpful” is filling out some kind of form or registration for you. But in most cases, it is relatively easy to correct or has little real consequence, so who cares?

    But. For the record, I’m not the Danica who races cars. I don’t look like her.  I’ve never met her. I don’t watch her races.

    So that we’ve cleared that up, let’s not go there again.

    Nothing on TV

    I have to say that since the writer’s strike and all the shows getting a false start and some being dealt a fatal blow when the networks decided to not even bring them back at all, there is nothing on TV that I like to watch anymore. I used to like The Unit. I liked Amazing race, and I used to like Criminal Minds. But there’s been no sign of The Unit, I think they’ll have another series of Amazing Race but haven’t seen anything that says when that might start up, and Criminal Minds is not as good as it used to be. In fact, Criminal Minds lost it’s appeal when one of the stars left unexpectedly and his replacement is Yuck, but also the writing style seems to have changed to be more on the gruesome side. I don’t like all the scenes of torture and dismembered bodies. I have an active enough imagination that I can figure it out to my own comfort level without having to actually see a lot of the blood and guts and sadistic activities of the criminals. I’m more interested in the story behind how the agents solve the case. So I guess i’ll be watching DVDs this summer and just watching the news at 10:00 before heading to bed.
