It's no secret to those who know me, but I love trivia.  I think it combines my interest in random, usually worthless facts and that thrill of knowing something that someone may not know.  So, for those people like me, you need to check out my favorite trivia website: http://www.sporcle.com/

It has all kinds of fun trivia games...so enjoy!  If you get addicted, I am not to blame.

Last night was Emmy night and although the awards began at 8pm, I was focused on the red carpet at 6pm, specifically who looked the best and more importantly THE WORST.  There were a lot of black and white and those who wore color, stood out & not always in the good way. 

First my favorites, I had a tie for my best dressed woman between Kim Kardashian and Claire Danes.  Not to be cliche but Kim looked white hot in her Marchesa gown.  Claire Danes looked sparkly and gorgeous in her Armani Prive gown.  I will also throw some love out there to Tina Fey and Kelly Osborne, two women who I normally think dress horribly, also looked very pretty last night.  My favorite man was John Hamm, who is always perfect in my book.

Now on to the worst...by far my least favorite female was January Jones, who looked like she had just swum out of the ocean and onto the red carpet.  I hated everything: her dress, her hair, her makeup, her shoes.  Unfortunately, my worsed dressed man was Ty Burrell.  I love him in Modern Family but my god, that grey suit and those awful shoes.  P.S., if his wife was a celebrity she would have been my worst dressed.  So, I guess they can be my worst dressed couple.

Well, congratulations to Modern Family, Mad Men (Lost was robbed) and the rest of the winners.  The awards were entertaining, but nothing compares to the red carpet.

So against all rational thoughts my friend Michelle convinced me to create a blog...well, actually she created it for me and told me that I needed to write something.  So, since she will probably me my only reader and follower, this one's for you Michelle...

Last night was the premiere of Keeping Up With the Karadashians, so I decided to catch up with Kim, Khloe, Kourtney and the rest of the family.  Not a disappointment.  There was crazy Kris, organizing a house warming party for a clearly OCD Kim and then deciding instead of helping with the party, she plays beer pong with her son's friends.  Finally, a mother I can love.  Then there was Khloe continuing her hatred for Scott, Kourtney's horrible baby daddy.  I can totally understand her disgust with him, after all he is disgusting.  They have some fights, Bruce gets in the mix and then blah, blah, blah, Kim and Kris make up and Kourtney and Khloe make up and all is well with the world.

Clearly, that was a great recap of the show.  Although I was entertained watching the show, I kept wondering one thing...why can't Kourtney afford a home for her and baby Mason to live?  Why was she living with Khloe in the first place?  What happened to her condo?  Was it, dare I say, rented?  Kourtney decides to move out of Khloe's and into Kim's?  Kim, the same person who in this episode, declared that she hates mess, fingerprints, and dirt.  Good luck with that.
