We did go dancing Thursday, which was a blast. I REEKED afterwards, which would be the reason I don't go out as much as I would like. I hit the shower as soon as I got home. Ick.
So we've been watching this show on FX called Black.White.. It's about two families, one white, one black, who put on makeup to look like the opposite race, and then they go out in public and see how they are treated. It's really interesting. I personally think that the black family looks for racism. I don't deny that racism exists, but honestly, he misinterprets a lot of things. Still, if you get FX, check it out. It's fascinating. It's on tonite at 9pm.
In other news, my beloved Florida Gators are in the Final Four!! Yay!! And the one year I don't put any money on my bracket....so sad!! Of course, I have them winning, just like every year. Ha. And now they actually have a shot at it.
Ain't that just the way it always is.
Saturday I went to the most elaborate bridal shower I have ever been to in my entire life. At an Italian restaurant downtown, in a private banquet hall, 75 ladies with a catered lunch and chocolate fountain with TONS of desserts, and honestly more presents than we saw at OUR WEDDING. It took 2 whole hours to open them all. Incredible. Everyone won a door prize (I got a way cool vintage coke glass). Maybe b/c I've only been to chintzy Mormon showers, but I did not expect a shower like this. Is this how normal bridal showers are thrown??? Enlighten me, please.
Well, my tummy tells me it's time for lunch. Happy Hump Day!

Hello Fellow blogger! I realize this is a little off topic from my normal routine of promoting pranks & Gags but, it threw my train of thought off so here goes:
I feel that this story must be in the same category as Pranks & Gags so here is my opinion on the stupid series which came on FX tv.
Is it me or did they miss something in their research?
I am referring to the fact that they chose 2 families one black and one white. (spray painting their skin)
That's fine, but the problem I have with this theory is that the 2 families they selected are medium to very high income. Is this something that is prevalent throughout our United States? To get the real feel of how one race is treated would be to select the families from the low income neighborhoods.
This is where the real racism is because, the don't haves, live there- be it Black or White.
Do you have any opinions on this subject? Let me know. Post your opinion here.
To me this show must be a Prank or a Gag.

Have a Nice Day!
