The things I learn on tv

As I was looking at one of the pictures I posted below, I was reminded of something I saw while watching a show on HGtv recently. You see that light over our dining room table in the background?

Well, I was watching HGtv one day and one of the designers referred to this type of light as a "boob light." He said, "I find these all over the place. Why? Boobs belong on babes, not on ceilings." Now every time I look at that light fixture all I see is a boob. So, thank you, flamboyantly gay HGtv designer, I will now be looking for a new light fixture to hang above my dining room table. Do you have a boob light in your house? I bet you do! And I bet you'll never look at it the same, now.

  1. Was that comment from Color Splash guy? No wonder he hates them. He probably has no appreciation for boobs.

  2. It was actually a guy from the show Sarah's House. I do love Color Splash guy, though.

  4. I am terribly ashamed to admit that for my whole life that's all I (Kristin, not Brad) have seen those lights as! I don't know why I saw them as such... but I always called them boob lights and always thought they were a horrible thing to have in a house (although my parents home has them all over the place, luckily our apartment doesn't have any). I'm glad to know I'm not the only crazy "sick minded" person out there.

  5. So I dunno if this is the most appropriate place to say that I've hung a ton of boobs in my lifetime, as that is in fact correct electrical terminology. And believe me this is just the mild side of electrical jargon. And now for something completely different, tell Weston to check his e-mail for that muffin recipe that has been in his inbox for weeks.

    A' th best
