Please don't judge me too harshly

You'll never guess what I did yesterday. Never guess. HA. I should make a contest out of it but to be fair, I won't.

I took yesterday off from work and got together with my 2 closest cousins and we went to a taping of the Jerry Springer show! I know, I know. One of the worst "talk shows" (if you can call it that) out there but we went. One of my cousins got tickets on a whim and asked if we would go with her. Why not? It was something to do together minus kids and we got to hang out for a little while. The JS show recently moved their studios to Connecticut; along with The Maury Povich show and Deal or No Deal - so we didn't have to travel far.

The show? Well, we three found it pretty lame. Jerry is a dirty old man. LOL. But it was entertaining for a couple of hours. The show may or may not air. We'll have to see. Our vote was that it won't air because it just didn't have enough "action" as most of his shows do. Some pushing, some shoving, some fists flew, some hair pulling but it was tame. VERY scripted.

It was a LOT of work being in that audience! We were told when to cheer, when to boo, when to chant Jerry! Jerry! Jerry! When we left the studio, I was parched and exhausted. LOL.

We hit some traffic heading back home so we detoured to Norwalk and found Stew Leonard's and did a little shopping and had lunch. Marsha? Did you hear me shouting for you on the streets of Norwalk? LOL!!

So like I said, don't judge me too harshly. But if the show DOES air, I'll let you know when so that you can find me in the audience! LOL!

Enjoy your day!
Jen

    That is too funny.

    I never cared for his show, but I did enjoy it when he was on Dancing With the Stars.

  4. Oh my gosh! You should have shouted just a wee bit louder, because I would have heard you. I could have been there in two shakes of a lamb's tail! Ha! Speaking of lambs, did you visit Stew's Little Farm? Miss Punkie Pie would have liked that!

    S.W.A.K.
