I have no clue where you live or what's happening in your world in terms of the unusual weather the month of June has delivered. I am hearing my soap friends in Michigan are dealing with tornadoes while Salt Lake City residents deal with mudslides. In addition, the northeast region of the country is being visited by an unusual coastal storm that could produce some serious high tides, and all I can say is Global Warming isn't what it's cracked up to be. It is not only cool where I am, it simply seems as though the sun has totally taken a break this month. What happened to June?
On a soapless summer weekend, we are more than often blessed with good weather which typically allows us to take a break from "You Tube" and the DVR and simply forget about the soaps for a couple of days. That is not necessarily always true in my case because I am watching all 8 soap operas and will readily admit I need a life. Still a sunny warm summer weekend is a much needed distraction for all of us.
Since the past few weekends have been more than dreary for many of us, I thought I would toss out a few suggestions for those times Mother Nature packs a punch and forces you to stay inside. Here are just a few suggestions:
- Rinse out your trusted fake pregnancy pillow because you never know when you will need it again. It doesn't even matter how old you are because soap chicks are becoming preggars at alarming rate when they are pretty close to their menopausal years.
- Hang online and stock up on those DNA collection kits that every soap resident must own. Sterile Hefty bags are a good thing.
- Purchase one of those hearing devices that resemble an MP3 player so you never miss overhearing one conversation within your zip code. Sonic hearing is critical for weekend down times. When the soaps aren't on, listening to your neighbors can be totally amusing.
- Take a field trip to the Emergency Room at your local hospital and simply lurk around while checking out your trusty listening device. It's at least a distraction from watching 'You Tube' clips featuring Otalia. You can also practice your baby swapping skills and raid the lab just for kicks if the ER isn't interesting enough.
- Stock up on batteries but of course not for weather related events. Instead, make sure that all those baby monitors in town are all powered up should you decide to visit a friend who is in the nursery way too far away from your sonic hearing device. Hanging close to a baby monitor seems to be extremely revealing on the soaps. Just remember not to drop a huge secret when you are close to one.
- Simply hang inside and drink whatever beverage is inside you crystal decanter. The weather is horrible after all, so a cocktail isn't a bad idea.
Running out to buy some batteries. I think my local hospital has a gift shop located right outside the Emergency Room and they do carry batteries. Share your thoughts on things to do on a lousy soapless weekend!
