The Ross Blog

... and I don't really have anything to write about.

Oh well!!!

I hope ya'll have a wonderful day, blog buddies!

I'm running out the door to go on a long walk with my best friend Taya, my mom and my paw-fect little dog-ter, Louise. It's sunny outside and we're gonna walk along the river. I'll take pictures and post them tomorrow. Fun!

I HEART VACATION!!!
Ross

PS - GO SEE Dreamgirls!!! I went to see it last night and LOVED it! It's 90% perfect! Some songs are a little long and a couple should have been cut completely (in my humble opinion), but it's GREAT. Two words: Jennifer Hudson!!! She's UNREAL. And everyone esle is GREAT, too. GO SEE IT!!!

 

Happy Wednesday, blog buddies!

It's dark and cloudy and rainy and ugly here in Washington State and I'm loving every minute of it! It's SUCH a nice change to come up here from sunny Southern California to spend some time with my family. So far, we've just been hanging out, going shopping, blah blah blah.

Tonight I'm FINALLY going to see the movie sensation I've been DYING to see FOREVER - Dreamgirls. Expect a full report tomorrow.

I've got to tell you a funny story. Yesterday I went to the gym in town. Sure, it may be the holidays and I may be way up here in Washington State, but Celebrity Fit Club stops for no one and they'll still be weighing me in front of America when I get back home to LA. So I've been TOTALLY watching what I've been eating and TOTALLY working out.

Anyway, yesterday I went to the local gym in town and guess who I ran into. Guess. Okay, I'll tell you. I ran into Mr. Nelson, my elementary school gym teacher! Isn't that kind of funny? I was THRILLED I ran into him at the gym and not at McDonald's or a bar or something. He's still the gym teacher at my old elementary school and he looks great. Maybe there's something to this working out thing...

On another note...

Last night I went out on the town with my best friend Taya. If you read the blog regularly, you know who Taya is. We went to high school together and speak on the phone about 8 times a day. Taya lived with me for a year in LA right after college, but moved back to Washington State a few years ago and I miss her like CRAZY. So when I come into town, we hang out kinda non-stop.

Last night we decided to go a couple bars around town for a quick drink. Here we are at a cute bar in LaConner (I forget the name of the bar - oopsies!).
RT Toast.jpg

Isn't Taya cute?!?

The 2nd bar we stopped by is Althea's in Mount Vernon. And you'll never believe what night it was. Guess. Guess. Okay, I'll tell you. It was open mic night. IT IS ON! You may or may not know that I have the voice of an angel. Well, so does Taya. In fact, we have a little band called Common Ground and we shared a gift with those lucky enough to be at Althea's last night. We shared the gift of song.
RT Open Mic Night.jpg

We were AMAZING!!!

After our fantastic performance, we walked down the street to another bar called The Doublewide. Guess what we found there. Guess. Guess. You'll never guess, so I'll just tell you. We found the COOLEST jukebox I've ever seen!!! It actually downloads the songs like iTunes or something. Seriously! So you just search an artist's name and it gives you all their albums and you pick any of their songs. SO COOL!
RT Amazing Juke Box.jpg

After putting $5 in the jukebox and picking a ton of songs, Taya and I finished the evening off with class, grace and style. We slow danced!!!

Happy Tuesday, blog buddies!

Did ya'll have a great Christmas/holiday/Monday yesterday?!? Didya didya? I certainly did!

I went down to my brother's fiance's parents house to celebrate the big day with my mom and we had a GREAT time! In fact, Santa himself was there to greet us as we walked in!

Here's Santa and Louise:
Louise n' Santa.jpg

She looks a little scared of the big guy, don't you think?

Santa brought me a Seahawks hat!!!!
Ross n' Santa.jpg

THANKS, SANTA (even though we lost on Christmas Eve)!

My brother got to sit on Santa's lap, too.
Eric n' Santa.jpg

But the real fun was watching my nephew Kai try to figure Santa out.
Kai n' Santa.jpg

Here's a picture of Ward and Joan, Amy's (my brother's fiance) parents.
Ward Joan and I.jpg

Thanks, Ward and Joan, for a great great great Christmas day!!!

I was really touched this year by how seriously everyone took Louise. I know some people think, "Oh, what's the big deal? She's just a dog..."

Those people suck. Louise is WAY more than "just a dog" to me. She's a soul who makes me happy each and every day.

Seeing my family embrace her the way they do melts my heart. Eric and Amy got her a fancy pink Coach collar! My mom wrapped presents under the tree for her, including snacks and a new pink shawl! My mom's best friend Boni got her doggie bones, a picture frame, and a neat-o travel bowl! Ward and Joan had a stocking hanging with her name on it full of goodies! I love love love that my family takes our bond seriously. It's a good feeling.

In other news...

Today's blog would have been up WAY sooner but I was having computer issues. My computer wouldn't turn on and - for the life of me - I couldn't figure out what the problem was. "Stupid piece of crap" (Only I didn't say "stupid" or "crap").

After about a half an hour of trying to figure it out I realized it wasn't plugged in.

Oopsies!

Until tomorrow, gang!
Ross

 

... MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS, BLOG BUDDIES!!!

The day we've been waiting for is finally here! Whether you celebrate Christmas or something else or nothing at all, have a great day today!

I'm going down to spend Christmas day with the parents of my brother's fiance (Amy).

Last night we had a mini-celebration at my mom's with friends, family, neighbors, etc. It was SO MUCH FUN!

Before the party, I spent the day madly shopping for gifts. I had a lot of the "big" gifts sent to my mom's house before I got here, but I needed a bunch of "littles". I think I did pretty well! Here I am wrapping gifts yesterday afternoon (just a by-the-way, I'm wrapping a paper towel holder in paper towels - pretty fancy, huh?):
R WRAPPING XMAS.jpg

Here's my nephew, Kai, opening a Seahawks jersey and sweatshirt from my mom:
K SEAHAWKS XMAS.jpg

We're a Seahawks family and, even though they lost yesterday, we're proud fans. Here's Kai with my brother Eric (his dad) and Eric's fiance Amy:
AEK XMAS.jpg

Then my Uncle Kenny and Aunt Carol came over to visit. Uncle Kenny and my dad are responsible for teaching me how to be funny - they were wickedly funny together.
EKCRL XMAS.jpg

Louise was a paw-fect little Christmas dog-ter last night. In fact, she scored a BUNCH of GREAT presents! Here we are in front of the tree:
LR XMAS TREE.jpg

It was SO nice to be back home with my family. Christmas has always been a time for us to pull together as a "unit" and celebrate life. Last night was no different.
MER XMAS.jpg

How was YOUR Christmas Eve? What are YOU doing today?

Have a great day, blog buddies!

... in just a couple hours, blog buddies!

Happy Saturday/the day before the day before Christmas!

I'm in a total rush. I have to leave for the airport in 30 minutes and my clothes are still in the dryer. After a full cycle on the "high heat" setting, the load still wasn't dry. That's probably because I put about 15 pounds of whites and colors combined in the same load trying to save time.

It turns out that doesn't work. Not only might some of my clothes get ruined, it takes like 4 times longer for a large load to dry than a teeny tiny load. Of course, had I planned ahead and done all this yesterday, it wouldn't be an issue.

To my credit, however, I was busy the last 2 days filming Celebrity Fit Club. That and I'm a total procrastinator.

Speaking of, I'm totally running late!!! I have to gather my toiletries and get Louise's stuff together before my clothes dry and I'm off in a hurry to the airport to catch my flight up to Washington State to spend the holidays with my family.

Don't worry blog buddies - the rest of the world may get baby Jesus's b'day off, but I'll be blogging like it's any other Monday (in between eating and opening presents and thanking baby Jesus and eating some more). In fact, I'll be blogging the entire time I'm gone (until Jan. 3rd), so keep checking back here every day!

Okay. I'm SERIOUSLY late. Ooopsies!

Until tomorrow!
Ross

 

Happy Friday, blog buddies!!!

I am in SUCH a rush. I spent yesterday shooting a "fit camp" for Celebrity Fit Club and today we're shooting the weigh-in ceremony. I have no idea when I'm going to get the crap I need to get done before I leave tomorrow for Washington State to spend the holidays with my family. Things like laundry, packing, sleeping, etc...

Oh well! I'm sure everything will work out.

To be honest, the thing I'm freaking out about the most is that fact that I still have a BUNCH of people to get gifts for and NO time to do it.

So this is my question for you: is getting someone a gift card tacky?

I can't decide. I mean, a gift is a gift is a gift, right? So who cares if it's a gift card, right? But then I think, the whole point of a gift is essentially saying, "I saw THIS and thought of YOU."

I'm worried a gift card might say, "I thought of YOU, freaked OUT that I had NOTHING, so I just got THIS to shut YOU up. Happy Holidays!"

But then again, I love love love getting gift cards. Hmm...

What are YOUR thoughts?

Okay. I seriously seriously seriously have to run.
Until tomorrow!
Ross

 

AHHHH, blog buddies!!!

I've been running around all day like a chicken with its blog chopped off. I had to be at NBC at 8am to get ready to go to the Cher auction to film the 2nd part of The Tonight Show segment that will air sometime in the future. But, before that, I had to drop Louise off at my friend's house and swing through Starbucks (oopsies).

Then we went to the auction and shot all day (maybe we even bought a little something special - you'll have to wait and see).

Now I'm off to get into makeup and wardrobe as Sonny Bono to shoot a little musical number with Tonight Show announcer John Melendez as Cher.

Don't worry, blog buddies - pictures tomorrow.

ALSO, DON'T FORGET THAT I'M ON THE TONIGHT SHOW TOMORROW NIGHT (Wednesday, October 4th)!!!!

Until then, blogarino's!
Ross

Happy Birthday Day Annie's Hubbers.

Can't wait for the show tomorrow! In 1974 I was living in Westwood for the summer and going to UCLA scriptwriting
classes and was stopped on the street to do a promo for the short lived "Sonny Bono Show." I went to see Cher in concert in about 1976 or so and she was awesome. I loved the silver CHER logo she had for her show. Anxious to see what you bought Ross! A hui hou!

They say we're young and we don't know We won't find out until we grow


teehee.. babe.. I got you babe!
I can't WAIT to see you with the sonny bono facial hair.. and I have a mental image of John Melendez that scares me!

b

OMG..I know I'm wayy over my limits of posts, but I have to ask:

Biscuit, Did you have anything to do with THIS!?!

LMAO..Disturbing yet funny!

Annie, I hope you are feeling better, but I couldn't help but think of that totally annoying commerial "HEAD ON"! LOL

Ross, Did you get tons of kisses from Louise when you got back home?

Fellow Blog Buddies, Did anyone see Oprah today? She said that she had never been to a yard sale before!!! OMG, that seems hard to believe. Happy Tuesday evening all.

Ahh the challenges of being a Hollywood Icon. I like the phrase "I feel like a head with it's chicken cut off" personally. I feel like that often. Can't wait to see you Wednesday.

um, no joey.. that was just bizarre!
and why did he keep pullin biscuits from his pockets when they were right there on the plate in front of him? linty biscuits??

oh no! I missed Oprah today!! :o( awww.

Ross
i love sonny bono and cher!!

dont forget rosie on nip tuck tonight at 10 on fox
i will tivo!!

take care
have fun
smiles
peace~

Excitement is building for tomorrow night's chat. However, the trolls were really irritating last time around. Any chance that a functional expert (someone like Glynnis) could act as a sort of an anti-dementor, guarding the gates of castle Rosschat and evicting the trolls as soon as they appear?

Ross-ola,
If you ever need a Cher impersonator, I'm your "babe". LOL ;)

See ya tomorrow!!!! Yea!!!

Sarah

Ross- OMG the Cher auction!! Was she there? I can't wait to see the segment and pics!!

Daria- Seeing you in a red dress could turn me str8t!!.....NOT11

Joey- Your just twisted my friend. Love ya!!

Whabbear- I'm going to be trying something in chat tonight. If it works, it will freak out any trolls tomorrow night. I'll give you more info in chat. I refuse to let anyone say something bad about Ross or anyone else that comes into chat!! You guys are my friends!! Chat is a hate free zone and we need to keep it that way!!

You are so funny, love you, love your blogs, love you on Jay's. and I think you are just awesome. I was just dropping by for a little dose of Ross. Keep Rocking!
LOVE YA!!!!

"Running around like a chicken with its blog chopped off"????? OUCH!!!! That sounds painful!!

I don't know which will be funnier: Ross as Sonny or John as Cher. The idea is too hilarious. Think y'all could get Daria to be Chastity?

Everyone resting up for tomorrow night?
I don't have cable so I wont get to see NipTuck tonight. waaaaaaaaaah. Someone let me know how it is.

Ross - I cannot wait to see you in a mustache. You may have to incorporate that into your Silver Fox look if it works for ya. Sounds like TTS has you pretty busy, but at least it's "fun busy"!!

Mrs. EHarmony - I did see Oprah today and I was LOL at them driving through the cattle feedlots in Goddard, KS. That totally cracked me up when they went to that yard sale too...although the people having the sale did not give the best representation of Kansas :-( Why? Why? Whyyyyyy???? LOL

LOL Can't wait to watch Wednesday! :) Got my DVDR set :) Gonna be awesome!

OMG...Sonny and Cher...and the image of Daria as Chastity just makes it complete...I've been lol-ing for the past 10 minutes!!!

Annie Banannie, sorry about the headache...but tell hubby Happy Birthday, and not tonight, you have a headache...giggle *snort*

Hope you all have a great night!

I second that Whab and Mikey.

I also like the trick on here to limit malicious and repetitive comments, I accidently pressed the post twice and found out about it.
Nice job boys and girls , I like it.

AMEN Mikey and Whabbear!!

This Rosie on Nip/Tuck is sooo risque! LOL

Back 2 Rosie for 45 minutes!!

OMG....you have no idea how excited/jealous I am that you're playing with Cher's stuff. That's sooooo frickin cool!! And I CAN'T wait to see you and John as Sonny and Cher...thats gonna be fabulous!!! I'm totally gonna have to tape TTS tomorrow night cuz I'm goin to a concert, but you can be sure I'm gonna watch it as soon as I get home!!! Maybe some of you will still be in chat *fingers crossed* Hope everyone had a great Tuesday!!

Ross: Will you be wearing a Sonny "Wig or hair piece" to get the proper Sonny doo??? :P :P :P
Daria as Chastity..........lmao :lol: :lol: :lol:

Trish: Annie Bananie probably has a headache cause she hasn't had it :lol: :lol: :lol: Kinda like Caffeine withdrawals :P :P :P *giggle* *giggle* *snort*

Hi Ross!!!!! I can't wait to see you tomorrow night. I always get such a laugh from watching your segments. Hope you're having a good Tuesday.

oh and Annie, I'm sorry about the headache...Happy Birthday to Hubby!!

I can't wait for tomorrow night. I've been looking forward to the Lumberjack segment for a while.
Can you imagine Ross as Sonny??!! And I thought Captain Doiley was a riot!!
Thanks to all the bloggers who were so nice and welcomed me last night in the chat room.

Poor Annie! I hope you are rid of the headache by the time I'm writing this. And, well, Ida Clare! Here you are suffering, and all your blog friends can do is giggle and snort!

Snort and giggle. Giggle and snort.

Mercy sakes alive! Lordy! I never!

Sorry I missed you peeps in chat tonight.....hope y'all had a fun night!!!! OMG Whabby, your giggle & snort comment cracks me up. Bear or Southern Belle? HMMMMMMM...I'll have to think about this & decide which role will do you more justice. ;)

BTW, took Sonia's boobie name indicator test. Mine are now known as "Cheech & Chong". ;) Sonia, you rock!

Ross, good luck tonight!!! :) :)

Have a happy Wednesday, y'all!!!

whabbear, you crack me up...and LMAO at your "Ida Clare"...

I need the linky to name my boobies...my life won't be complete until they are named...lmao

Hope you all have a Happy Humpday!

Hey - a newbie here. I have been following Ross since the Olympics and love him. I love to read everyone's comments although I am usually a day behind. Can't wait til tonight - I am from WI but missed going to see Ross because my little bambinos had a gymnastics thing that weekend.

Can't wait to see the show tonight!

When is the Sonny and Cher segment airing? I'll have to call my brother and give him the heads up, when we were growing up we used to dress up and play Sonny and Cher all the time. When we weren't playing Sonny and Cher we were Donnie and Marie! haha

I don't even remember writing my comments yesterday. I started out at the Silver Fox WAY too early, and stayed WAY too late. I ended up misspelling Glynis' name AGAIN.

But then it got worse. Much worse. Jackie's right. I dissociated into a southern belle. After much to much inappropriate laughter over Trish's comment about Annie, I tried to order another mint julep. Jen refused to serve me, and I lurched up, intending to reach across the bar and bully Jen into complying with my wishes. In the process, I knocked poor Shari right off her stool. While Glynis was rushing across the room to tend to the dazed and confused Shari, Biscuit appeared out of nowhere, picked me up, and threw me out the front door!

Good morning Ross and Bloggers

Joey- You were right. Rosie was amazing on Nip/Tuck. I love Rosie!!

Daria- I'm going to sing to you this morning. " Lady in red, is dancing with me butt cheek to butt cheek!!" Baawaaa

Speaking of BOOB indicater did anyone give it to MOM_ross?

Let's keep the chat room a hate free zone tonight after Ross is on the tonight show!! Ross can delete any negitive comments off his blog


It was horrible...poor whabbear was bounced out on his ear (not to mention other parts...), and Jen (or Smitty as I like to call her in my Silver Fox persona) ended up buying us all a round of drinks, so whabbear, you missed out hon!!!

HERE is the link to "name your boobies"!!! LMAO

I found it through Sonia the other day also because it showed up "love muffins"..so I sent it to Tracey!..LMAO:)

Chat was so much fun until the PM's got me booted repeatedly! LMAO..We've missed you Mrs. E and JNO!!
I'm so excited about Ross' segment tonight!! Back to being productive! LOL
TTYL!:)

*Holy Crapolla Batman*

Bloggers- I just got a message on my you tube account. A reporter is going to use one of my voice overs from one of my videos on L.A. radio. He is doing a segment on the L. A. Gay and Lesbian centers campaign "Aids Is A Gay Disease, Own It, Stop It!!" My oppion is AIDS is NOT a gay disease, it's an everyone disease, Own it Stop it.

Love you all,
Mikey

AWWWW MIKEY!!! CONGRATS!!!
Find out what radio station so we can tune in online to hear it sometime!! LOL

Could YOUR week get any better Mikey!? LMAO

Ross,
OMG you are such a busy busy bee boy arnt ya? Sounds like the life I want to live but alas I'm stuck in KY (sigh I'm coming Hollywood hold on). That Cher auction sounds so fun I seen some of the stuff on TV. Her dresses are truely delicious!

ionolsen20 I just don not have anything to say right now.
