Hey, It's Okay Tuesday!

I got this idea from Glamour magazine. They have a section called Hey, It’s Okay and will list a bunch of things to be okay about. I think I’m going to do this every Tuesday now. You're welcome to join in and do something like this on your diary. Doesn't have to be on a Tuesday either.

Hey, It's Okay....


To be a little creeped out by all this talk about Bed Bug infestation.


To be annoyed with how long it took to announce the winner of Big Brother.


To be rooting for the old side of Survivor. (For those who don’t know, the teams are split young vs old.)


To still argue with your husband even though he’s all the way in Korea. (I can’t even remember what he said but it pushed my button and I think I told him f you. I promptly apologized but honestly, he needs to watch what he says to a woman that he’s left behind with two crazy children.)


To be ready to read the new Shopaholic book by Sophie Kinsella which comes out today.


To enjoy watching Joseph Fiennes in Shakespeare in Love and be a little bitter that FlashForward, a series he was in, was cancelled.


To not be surprised that Lindsay Lohan failed her drug test. Throw her in jail! To heck with the overcrowding. Maybe the other inmates will snap her into shape. (Literally)


To have listed more stuff on eBay here. (Tom should be proud of me. He’s always like, “You never get rid of stuff, blah blah blah...”)


To have really liked the new show The Event. I miss Lost, maybe this’ll help feel the void.



To prefer this dude,



who played Thomas Culpepper on The Tudors

to the dude who most girls fawn over who played Charles Brandon.



He is attractive, no doubt, but I prefer Thomas Culpepper (who in real life is Canadian and for some reason I have it in my head that all Canadians have been to Prince Edward Island where one of my favorite movies Anne of Green Gables was filmed....and plus, he looks good in orange, which is a hard thing to do.)

  1. I'm going to disagree on that last one. It's NOT okay haha. You just made my morning a little better with that picture of Henry Cavill.

  2. Is it ok to pretend to be working while watching the Jeremy Kyle show? I should be ashamed.

  5. I missed The Event, but really liked Hawaii Five-O.

    I was hooked on the Tutors. Especially the last season. I rationalized that obsession by reading through history books along the way. Now I can name all of Henry's wives...in order, and what happened to them. This makes me feel smart. You can keep Culpepper, though. Henry Cavill, even after he got old and took a French mistress. (Just noticed he plays the son in The Count Monte Cristo recently and thought I'd made some huge discovery!)

    You were surprised by Lohan?
    I think she WANTS to go back to jail.

  6. Yeah - why are all the news programs talking about bed bugs? Is there REALLY a bug infestation or are the news channels just jumping on the band wagon? Yuk!

    I was ticked off that Flash Forward was canceled, too. I taped The Event, haven't watched it yet.

  7. We're rooting for Team Old on Survivor also. That young bunch seems like a bunch of assholes.

    ReplyDelete
  8. Crap, you reminded me that I had heard about The Event and wanted to see it, but didn't set the PVR or even research if we get it :-( And also, I wanted to see Lonestar. Damn. Since it's Tuesday, I guess that's ok.

    ReplyDelete
  9. I know exactly what you mean about the bed bugs! Ugh! I saw something on the news about them a couple months ago and immediately leaped out of bed and washed all of my blankets, sheets, pillow cases, etc!! Ew ew ew, haha!

    ReplyDelete
  10. Love this! I'm so pulling for the "old" team especially since I guess I'm considered one of them (I'll be 40 next Spring). I miss Lost too and haven't heard of the new show you mentioned. I'll have to check it out.

    ReplyDelete
  11. I love your Okay Tuesday lists! I miss LOST too. The thought of bed bugs makes me want to cry.

    ReplyDelete
  12. i agree.. dude in orange looks way good.. and oh my! i could sooo get lost in those eyes of his!!!

    ReplyDelete
  13. I was SOOOOO sad that Flash Forward isn't returning for the Fall lineup. I am hoping ABC does what they did with Lost, and it returns in January or February! Fingers crossed! PS I LOVE Joseph Fiennes in Shakespeare in Love.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Oh girl, I hear ya on Joe Fiennes. He is beautiful, BEE-U-TI-FUL!! He is criminally under used in the acting world.

    Bed bugs.....creeped out just thinking about it. Good thing I haven't been reading up on it.

    I love your Tuesdays. Just thought you should know.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Did FF officially get cancelled? Boooo! I really enjoyed that show. I don't get it. ABC brought on two completely new shows last night.

    Did you watch The Event? I think it will be a good one.

    ReplyDelete
  16. I'd take either of those hotties. So if you see em' send em my way!

    Lohan is an IDIOT!

    I cant wait for the next shopaholic book! EEEEEK!

    I am so bummed I missed the Event! Think they'll have a rerun?

    ReplyDelete
  17. The bed bug stuff is sicking me out. It makes me itch when I think about it.

    I loved FlashForward! I'm sad that is was cancelled too.

    I'm so tired of hearing about Lindsey Lohan. Just put her in jail like you would anyone else who's pulled all the crap she has. She used to be special, but I think she's ruined that now.

    ReplyDelete
  18. I hope its ok to wish Lindsay back in jail cuz if it were one of regular folk we'd still be in jail..

    I taped the Event. I hope i like it

    ReplyDelete
  19. I am rooting for the one young looking chick on the old side. I think she makes us look good.
    I watched The Event last night. I don't know if I can keep up! But my huband and I are also hoping it will be Lost-like.

    ReplyDelete
  20. I LOVE this meme!!!

    Also, you have won an award on my blog!

    ReplyDelete
  21. I look forward to this post every tuesday.

    Yes! What is up with the bed bugs? It's on the news all the time! Blech.

    ReplyDelete
  22. FlashForward was kinda good, but I'm not sure even The Event can replace the LOST void.

    Ha!

    LOST void....that sounds redundant.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Dude. I get all skeezed out and feel creepy crawly all over my skin every time anyone even MENTIONS bedbugs. Ug. Thanks for that. . .

    ReplyDelete
  24. Is it okay that you mentioned Lindsay Lohan without mentioning Paris Hilton?

    :)

    ReplyDelete
  25. New shopaholic book? I need more hours in the day.

    ReplyDelete
  26. I LOVE the Shopaholic series! I cannot wait to read the latest! I'm also really looking forward to "The Event" as well!

    ReplyDelete
  27. I agree on Lindsay Lohan...she needs to be thrown in jail!

    ReplyDelete
  28. yeah, and worry about bed bugs now when you go to the movies...is my head itching?

    oh my gosh LiLo is so annoying (say that in the voice of the lemur from madagascar). I just read Vogue with her "that was my college phase I'm through it now" and I was thinking shut up, you are such an addict and wtf did she do to her lips - she looks awful? but worse is her dr who was quoted as saying "she was not an addict" yeah bet you feel stupid now, huh?

    here's mine - http://parentplanet.info/?p=1596

  29. I find it amusing how much of your "its ok" I always agree with!

    ReplyDelete
  30. The new shopoholic book is out today? Cool! But I'm waiting a year to read it (when it's out in paperback!). LOL

    ReplyDelete
  31. I love the Shopaholic series! They are the best!

    ReplyDelete
  32. thanks for the heads up on shopaholic - I had no idea

    ReplyDelete
  33. LOL! I love all the sexy men on Tudors.

    ReplyDelete
  34. I missed The Event. All the commercials for it drove me crazy.

    ReplyDelete
  35. YAY for Shopaholic and Shakespeare in Love (in general)! I got very confused during the event. :)

    ReplyDelete
  36. I love your list - and I have no idea who either of the guys are (sorry living way down here in Aus. but I like your taste - even in orange!

    I have been following for a while but haven't commented before and thought it was time to say hello :)

    Love the idea of It's okay Tuesday and might borrow it if you don't mind?

    ReplyDelete
  37. Ooh, we saw The Event last night...very intriguing(sp?). And..I love Anne of Green Gables!

    ReplyDelete
  38. Lohan went back??!! And I had such faith in her this time. I mean, last time. I mean, the time before that.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I totally checked all the beds and couches in my house for bed bugs... I'm so freaked.

    ReplyDelete
  40. I like the nerdy ones too! Thanks for stopping by my blog during my SITS Day. I really appreciate it!

    ReplyDelete
  41. I'm hoping its ok that I haven't blogged for so long!

    ReplyDelete
  42. I agree--Thomas Culpepper--in orange, or green, or blue, or black, or ...

    ReplyDelete
  43. Bed bugs...{{shudder}}..they give me the skeeves. And BB's announcement was totally lame. Hell I fell asleep before they made the announcement b/c it was SO long.

    Over Lindsay but I disagree about the hottest Tudor. :D

    ReplyDelete
  44. I completely agree about Joseph Fiennes in Shakespeare in Love *swoons*

    My son had wanted to watch the Event. I wonder if I can find it on the internets somewhere for him to see it. Darn that I didn't realize it was on already.

    ReplyDelete
  45. I'm still pissed about Flash Forward getting canceled. I loved that show. Now I'll never know what happens...

  46. I couldn't get into the Tudors other than to drool over some of the men. They need to stop cutting Lohan breaks. Send her to rehab or jail and be done with her.

    ReplyDelete
  47. I have washed all my bedding twice in the last month because I've gone bat-shit about this bedbug thing. I don't actually have them, but I'm not about to give them any reason.

    I've just started the 3rd season of The Tudors so I haven't made it to Thomas Culpepper yet. Although, I actually think James Frain (Cromwell) is oddly attractive. Perhaps it's due to his role as Forney in "Where the Heart Is" or maybe it's all those flowing robes he wears.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Any man that looks that good in orange has to be worth a second, and possibly closer, look. ;P
