I absolutely cannot stand Austin. He is so bizarre looking to me. And WTF with those wretched high notes he was trying to hit.

Love love love Derek!!!! He was the best. I’m sorta torn between him and Max. Max cracked me up…”I’ve had like 14 jobs in like 2 years. Everybody fires me.” But I’ve liked Max since day one. Last night was the first night I really got to see Derek perform and I about fell out of my chair. He’s awsome. I also really like Kevin. Nice voice.

With the girls I’m kinda meh. They all sound alike to me.

I’m so behind the times. I just discovered the joy of Widgets!

Just upgraded to WP 2.1 so if things look a little funky for a while that be why.

Ha! I doubt it! LOL

A cable line was down in my neighborhood and we were with out all of our Comcast digital services for 8 days. That would be no phone, no internet and none of our digital cable channels. Oh sure we had regular cable channels 2-75 but you would think we were living in the dark ages with all the moaning and whining I had to put up with around this house. Anyway everything came back on yesterday.

Heroes came back last night and I haven’t had a chance to watch it yet. And then of course American Idol auditions continue tonight. So far I haven’t seen anyone all that good. The only person I like so far is the Army girl whose hubby is in Iraq. I really liked her personality. I’m not too happy with the way they’ve been showing these mentally challenged people. It’s not funny to me at all. And did you see the girl who said she was an Ace fan and had him draw her a tatoo? No comment.

I’ve also been enjoying Grease: You’re The One That I Want too. I can’t stand that Austin guy. He reminds me of Blake from the first year of So You Can Think You Can Dance. He’s the best guy finalist but there is just something about him that rubs me the wrong way. Don’t really have a favorite girl yet. If you haven’t been watching it but want to start they are starting the live shows on Sunday night. They just finished up the audition process and are down to the Top 12.

Oh yeah, while I was without internet I managed to read a really good book from my library, The Rapture of Canaan by Sheri Reynolds. It’s been out a while. I believe it was one of Oprah’s book club selections like 10 years ago. If you liked Where The Heart is by Billie Letts then you will probably like this. Really good Southern fiction. I don’t know what possessed me to read it but I was looking for something on Amazon and this came up as a recommendation. I plan to read more of her books. I loved her writing style.OK, now I’m off to catch up on some blog reading! Have a great day everyone!

Will we see a bald rocker? a ditzy country girl? a cutie in a beanie? a young guy with gray hair?? I wonder how many copy cats we’ll see tonight? Can’t wait!

I recorded this from last Sunday but finally got around to watching it today. I absolutely loved it and can’t wait until the next episode. Grease is one of my all time favorite movies. This is going to be such a fun show to follow.

Speaking of fun shows….American Idol starts on Tuesday night!

I just realized I haven’t even posted any Happy New Year wishes over here yet. I’ve been posting over at my Vox and LJ a bit this past week, though. Why do I have 3 blogs again? I have no idea.
I’ve recently become crazy over all these Web 2.0 sites. (see link in post below) I’ve signed up for about 50 of them but never even use them. I just think they’re so cool. There is literally something for everyone. It’s funny how much the internet has changed over the past several years. I remember being so proud of my little “country-themed” Geocities site back in ‘99. My favorite font was Comic Sans MS. *snickers*

I am going to try to tweak this theme a little. I like it but would like to change the colors. Maybe the design bug is biting me again.
