Some days, I feel like I'm living in a bad infomercial. You know, the kind that make you want to throw things at the television.
I digress but my personal favorite right now is the Snuggie. It's beyond absurd. There's a great article in this week's Time Magazine about the Snuggie. My favorite quote from the article, taken from a rant on YouTube is this: "It's a bathrobe. That is really long. That you wear backwards."
Some parts of my life are ill fitting right now. Many things that I took for granted now seem backward. Many other things have proven cozy and comfortable... I just forgot for a while.
Who knows what's coming next? I'll keep plugging along. And when I've had enough, maybe I'll put my bathrobe on backwards.

I was just thinking about the Snuggie this afternoon. Had a chill and the blanket I was trying to wrap around got in the way of my typing on the laptop! I thought, maybe I need a Snuggie!
OK, I must admit that the boys and I saw the infomercial on the Snuggie and thought "what a great idea!" I'm always cold in the winter, especially when I'm downstairs on the computer. The only reason I didn't order anything is because the last time I tried to order from TV it didn't turn out so well. I called to order and the guy kept trying to sell me other products. I told him no several times and told him if he tried to sell me one more thing I was going to cancel my order and hang up. Well guess what? He tried and I hung up! Never more on the TV orders! Kim

This is an ad parody that we laughed pretty hard over. The language may be a bit raw but it makes its point pretty well.
