What a coincidence.
Just one day after confessing my love of all things Taylor Swift, the country singer announced today that she will be coming to Calgary for the 2009 Calgary Stampede. She’ll be performing at the crappy old Saddledome on July 8th!
And while it is completely unreasonable to think this, I am going to take credit for it.
You are welcome Calgary.
>In the next couple of weeks, some of the best and some of the worst reality shows will be returning to our TVs for another season of sweating, bleeding, vomiting and crying. And that’s just on America’s Next Top Model 12th cycle!
But look out Tyra, Jeff Probst’s Survivor and Phil Keoghan’s The Amazing Race are both returning for their 18th and 14th seasons respectively!!!
All three shows have released the casts for their shows, so you can start your office polls early.

Meet the Cast!
The Amazing Race (CTV) (February 15th)

America’s Next Top Model (CityTV) (February 25th)

In honor of Taylor Swift’s 8 weeks reign on top of the Billboard charts, I have a confession.
I freaking love the song Love Story (listen here).
There I said it.
I don’t care. According to Itunes, I’ve listened to it 25 times. And probably countless times on Youtube. And I’m not talking about that annoying pop version of the song, I’m talking about the full out country ballad. I would usually say that I’m not proud of this, but I am. Taylor Swift haters be damed.
Now excuse as I listen to love story for the 26 to 39 times.
>I had the CRAPPIEST day on Wednesday.
No particular reason, it just seemed to be one thing after another.
Before I went to bed I ended up playing on youtube for a bit and I found the one thing that made me laugh and made me realize that my day could have been worse.
Don’t ask me why, but it hit the spot.

Obviously unable to deny the temptation of a Tim Hortons Double Double, it was announced today that Obama will be making his first trip to Canada on February on 19th!
Parliament will be closed that week (god forbid them opening), so the new president will be meeting with the ever personable Stephen Harper! Oh to be a fly on that wall!
>Check out my latest segment on Breakfast Television!
What are you going to be doing during the Superbowl?

The news isn’t looking good for people hoping that someday Grey’s Anatomy would be an amazing show again.
ABC has just greenlit a pilot by Grey’s/Private Practice creator Shondra Rhimes. The show is called Inside the Box and will about a slutty news producer and her emotionally unstable co-workers in Washington.
Shonda, we don’t need a new show from you, we need you to fix the ones you already got. Want a quick fix, have Denny suck Private Practice into hell. Just make sure Addison escapes in time to return back to Seattle Grace. There, problem solved.
