Why is Shark Tank a Thing?

Tonight I walked a mile on the treadmill, showered, and wandered into the bedroom to find the lovely H watching a show called "Shark Tank on CBS (it came on after the silly Agents of Shield show she's been watching with Oldest Daughter.) Foolishly, I sat down and started to watch too. The basic premise seems to be that they take small home grown businesses, sample their wares and then bash them until they are willing to sell stakes in their business for way less than they are probably worth. This is America at it's worst and I don't want to live on this planet anymore. Especially since Ashton Kutcher (yes Kelso from that 70's show) is one of the investors tonight.  I think I'll add this to my list of reasons that I love Netflix, pick good shows and ignore the rest of the crap like this.

Jake's Second Wednesday...

As always...terrible grammar but you get the idea. Emily was looking forward to an uneventful Tuesday, her work schedule was clear and Jake had plans to watch the game with friends.  Emily was looking forward to grabbing Chinese take out for dinner and flopping in front of Netflix. Gilmore Girls or something equally mind numbing. She hadn’t had any “me” time since Jake’s last boys night over a month ago.   It should have been an easy day but by noon she was on the verge of tears, by 1 she was thinking about escaping to the closest tropical beach. Tuesday turned into the day that wouldn’t end and it was well past 9 by the time she pulled into the driveway. Days like today she hated being a grown up. As much as she loved Jake, she was glad he was out enjoying himself. She knew she wouldn’t be very good company tonight. A night to herself to unwind was exactly what she needed. She sometimes wished Jake and his friends had weekly guys nights, not that she would tell him that.
