Those Wacky Scrubs Wearing Medical Professionals On [scrubs]

I remember the first time that I watched the popular TV show [scrubs], I wasn’t impressed. Their type of wacky humor just didn’t float my boat, in fact it was a major turn off, so much so that I didn’t give the show a second chance for over a year. But as time went by and I would once in a while be hard pressed for something to watch and ended up watching a few episodes now and then, here and there and now I’m pretty much a hard core fan. Watching these corn ball medical professionals running around in all their scrub uniforms, playing havoc with one another in such wacky off the wall situations, not only in their work environment at the hospital, but off the clock as well, just cracks me up.

I’m wondering if that show helped inspired the medical field to wear uniforms that aren’t just the normal green scrubs that we all have seen them wear in the past. Now a days they have such a wide selection of medical uniforms that they can wear for a much better variety for them to choose from, which I think is great. I don’t think I could wear the same thing day after day, year after year. After all variety is the spice of life. I love it when I see someone in Pediatrics and they are sporting a cute Disney or Winnie The Pooh scrub on and I’m sure that the kids like it better as well. Anything that helps make it easier for the kids (and the staff) is worth it, right?

Faithful

Content by Mac Kline

Ever since I was a little girl, fashion has been a huge part of my life. I would go shopping with my mom, and we would pick out the trendiest outfits together. We really bonded as mother and daughter on our shopping sprees.

Now that I am older, I still find ways to keep up with the latest fashion trends. Every week, I flip on my Dish tv and watch “What Not to Wear.” The show’s hosts, Clinton Kelly and Stacy London, make a perfect duo. They are both catty and witty when they critique the outfits of their guests. Stacy picks out the most amazing outfits, and Clinton is a genius at mixing and matching separates. At the end of each show, the finished makeover is always unbelievable. I have never seen a guest not like the end result.

I started watching the show about five years ago, when my fashionable mother introduced it to me. I have been a faithful viewer on a weekly basis ever since. One day, I plan on nominating my boss for the show. She needs a lot of fashion advice, as her wardrobe is very drab and matronly. It would be a dream to actually meet Stacy and Clinton in real life one day. Perhaps my fashion dream will come true.

Pit Boss Is Back

I’m so glad that the TV show “Pit Boss” is back on VHI with new episodes for us to enjoy until the summer reruns start in on us. So many times I find a show that I really can get into and wham it is gone, never to be see again, so I’m really surprised to see this show running into it’s third season.

We’ve Got Snow

Well we really have been lucky so far this year. It has been cold, but no snow. That is until yesterday. One minute it was starting to come down and in just a few hours we had over 5 inches and it was still coming down. The worst part is that right as I was starting to put diner together the power went out so a quick peanut butter and marshmallow fluff sandwich with a bottle of water, that I keep in the garage, was eaten by candle light and off to bed I went.

The house was starting to get chilly so I piled on the blankets and grabbed a flash light and my book and read for a few hours until my arms got tired of holding the flashlight and the book. It took a while but I finally dozed off,  I have to have the TV on when I go to sleep and of course with no power, no TV. At 3:30 the light came on in my room, so I turned the TV on and finally went to sleep for a few hours.

Man I hate snow!

I Like Free!

I like free stuff. I really enjoy going to Costco from time to time and spending an hour or two gazing at all of the goodies that they have there priced so cheaply, but in bulk, as well as taking advantage of all of the free samples that are to be found at the end of each aisle. It’s a good way to find out if you truly like a product before spending you hard earned money on it. The Food Court at the local usually has at least one resturant handing out free samples to lure you into there establishment. A great marketing strategy to be sure.

Some times I stumble onto good sites that I find on the Internet that offer free samples, freebies and free stuff and when I do I like to pass along the information here. So I’m encouraging folks to check out my latest find where you can find all types of freebies. Right now you can even find free cell phones, now how cool is that. Go to Freecatcher.com and see if you would be interested in some of their offers, I’ll bet you’ll find all types of cool deals to take advantage of. You just can’t beat FREE!

Eye Wear from Zenni Optical

Wow, I’m impressed with the idea and the feature that Zenni Optical has come out with. They now have a way for us to see what we will look like with the glasses that they have for sale with their virtual try on frames program. All you do is upload a picture of yourself and start choosing what frames you want to see on yourself. Now how cool is that?

The price of eyeglasses varies from place to place with some places charging an arm and a leg for their products. Zenni Optical is known for their affordable prices on their wide variety of eye wear and they just reduced more of their glasses from $8 a pair to $6.95 so that is promising in a time where the prices of just about everything are sky rocketing right before our eyes.

My eyesight is very important to me, bad eyes run in the family and I’ve had to wear eye glasses since the 4th grade. I’d love to have the laser eye surgery at some point, but I have to wait for the prices to come down some before I try that. The prices are dropping so one day I hope to have all most perfect eyesight once again and won’t have to worry about eye glasses ever again. That will be a nice change. In the mean time I’ll stick with Zenni Optical and their products. Now I just need to take a picture of myself and get the party started!

Pit Bulls & The Weather on TV

I’m so glad that “Pit Bulls and Parolees” is back once again on The Animal Planet Channel. I wish that I had known about the show two years ago when it first came on, but I did see all of last years. There are a lot of re runs on that I’ve managed to see and I’ve been waiting for tonight’s episode to come on, so I’m off to Reality Show Land for the evening and keeping an eye on the weather channel as well. We are expecting a huge snow storm, but we will see how it turns out tomorrow.

Did Anyone Lose A Cat?

This is one of the better animal pictures that can be found on the Internet. Most of the animal pictures are of cats and dogs, although I’m sure you can find just about any type of animal online. So I had a giggle or two looking at it and wanted to post it along here today.

The Christmas List

I appreciate the guest post, Lindsay Valdez

Christmas shopping doesn’t have to be hectic or stressful. It can be a lot of fun when there’s a clear picture of what you want to buy and the budget you need to stick to in order to make sure everyone gets what they want for Christmas. Gifts should always be thoughtful and personal to the person you’ve bought them for. The Christmas list is one of the most powerful tools for making Christmas shopping the kind of smooth process you need, and want, it to be during the holidays. As you master the list and learn how to use it to quicken the shopping process, you’ll find that you won’t be one of the unfortunate people that has to rush to buy gifts during the holidays.

When you leave your home, set your securitychoice home security alarm and prepare to have the smoothest shopping trip of your life. Before Christmas even begins, make out a wishlist of things you want to get for people. By doing this, you learn quickly if those items are going to be available and if there’s anything better for you to buy the people you love. Preparing ahead saves you plenty of time in the end, and you’ll be thankful that you did this once you get out there and see the crowds of Christmas shoppers that didn’t think of this step.

Facebook vs. MySpace

I had a friend over today and she took the time to show me around her Facebook pages and taught me a few things that will be good to know when I finally decide to plunge in and open my own account. I have to say that I think MySpace is a lot cooler, so I’m not sure what all the fuss is about with Facebook.
