Idol Withdrawal

I know it's been over a week and I really should move on with real life, but thinking about this performance makes me smile a week later, so that must be good for something. Sorry this is about the best quality I could find.



PS...yes Houston I realize I just posted a country artist on my blog, the ends of days must surely be near.

Can I Call You?

I admit this is a little slow moving, but stick with it, I promise it should bring at least a smile to your face or maybe a little laughter to your soul.

10 on Tuesday

So last week was one of those whirlwind weeks that just flew by. We had out graduation and I promise a post on that as soon I get pictures. But today is Tuesday and you know what that means...a list of course.

I remember when I was a kid that summer TV always sucked, now I'm older and have TIVO and cable I have plenty to watch. Here are 10 shows I have waiting for me...

1. Hell's Kitchen
2. The Daily Show
3. Gossip Girl
4. My Fair Lady
5. Tootsie
6. Good Eats
7. Decorating Cents
8. 60 Seconds to Chic
9. Signing in the Rain
10. All of the spring episodes of Greys (you know, in case I go into withdrawal and need a summer fix)

What's in your que?

Yes, I do have too much time on my hands

well not technically today...I worked a 16 hour day between the two jobs. I snuck home for about 10 minutes a lunch to let Tanner out, otherwise it was work, work, work.

But last night I had a little trouble falling asleep so I set about blog surfing. I came across a site where I found a link to do this...if I were on Southpark this is what my character would probably look like.

I know some of you are not big fans of Southpark and that makes me a little sad for you. Yes it's crude and sometimes disgusting, but when you get past that you'll find the best satirical show on television with a powerful social commentary. Plus there's always an extra funny line or two for Colorado folks.

How can you not love Beaker...

Reality Recap (if you haven't seen the finale of Project Runway --- stop reading)

Since last night was a photography class, I didn't get to see the finale in real time. Hooray for TIVO! This is my favorite of the several reality shows I watch. I was bummed that Christian won, I was really rooted for Rami. His was my favorite collection, rarely do I see things on the runway that I would wear (assuming I have major surgery and figure out a way to survive without ever eating or find a way to take over Victoria Beckham's body). Plus how can you not root for a guy whose last name is Kashou (really like Cashew, the best nut ever).

I can't say I'm too surprised...now in it's fourth season, Rungay is a fairly predictable show, find the most outrageous and egotistical designer with some edgy or this season's word fierce designs, who gets the most air time and you'll figure out who the winner will be by week four. I now folks will say what about Chloe --- she doesn't fit that category. You're right and I bet the ratings were lower and Bravo had less feedback after that season so they decided not to go that route again. Please PR prove me wrong.

The good news is that Bravo has a new dance show to take Rungays place --- dance shows are my other fav. Looks like they've found the best possible female dancer --- yep that's right Elizabeth Berkley is a judge. Say what? I guess starring in one really bad stripper movie qualifies one as a judge. Maybe I missed the part where it's really a pole dancer reality show.

And just when you thought there was no more room for an original reality show --- along comes Oprah. I watched the season premier of The Big Give (on Sunday night for souls without TIVO) and loved, loved, loved it. Imagine if the Amazing Race folks held a charity event at each stop and you get The Big Give. Each week contestants are challenged to make a difference in a stranger's life. Be prepared to cry.

Here's another layout from the weekend, many of you have already seen in the land of the Peas

just a random stream of thoughts.

Now off to catch up on 3 days of Idol --- Danny Noriega + Tainted Love = Puke!

Emptiness...

It's gone, I finally took down my tree on Tuesday night. It's an easy process physically, but I still hate the void it leaves in my living room. My desperate need for curtains and better lights is evident without the tree. I was so disappointed to find that I didn't take a full picture only this close up as I was trying to learn more about my camera.

On a happier note, I'm super excited because...

The Daily Show is Back!

I was starting to resort to watching actual news channels --- desperate times call for desperate meaures, right? Thankfully Jon and the crew have rescued me from Lou and Wolf, hopefully no long term damage has been done.
