So I'll try to get started

I watch a lot of HGTV. I'm addicted to Househunters, Househunters International, Property Virgins, For Rent, etc. I also watch Say Yes to the Dress. I'm fascinated by the people they choose to put on these shows. You know the ones. "I have to stainless steel appliances." "I have to have granite countertops." "I have to have double sinks." As if anything less is like living in a third world country. Even more so for the ones who are looking for vacation property. A bedroom 12x15 is "kind of cramped". You're on vacation, how much time are you spending in the bedroom when you're in some tropical location?

Anyway, my two fabulous beautiful daughters and I will spend whole afternoons watching these shows and ripping on these people. Particularly the woman who when looking at a three bedroom house, went into one of the bedrooms and said (I kid you not), "This can be Coco's room." Coco was her dog. Yes, her dog. It's become kind of an inside joke for us.

So I thought to myself if my two fabulous beautiful daughters and I can spend time mocking these people, surely the good folks on the internet would like to share in that. So that's what I plan to do. I'll try to be funny. I'll try to entertain. And hopefully someone else besides my fabulous beautiful daughters and my long-suffering husband will read it.

But this is the first time I've tried it, so bear with me while I suffer growing pains.
