Idol Chatter

Did ya see the Idol? American Idol that is. I don't know if I have ever laughed so much at the auditions.

Is it me or were the trio harsher than normal? Not sure why Jewel was there...it didn't seem to add or take away from the episode.

So the questions of the day are--

Do you think some of the auditions are staged?

Who do you think was the best?

Who was the worst?

Who should of made it thru and who shouldn't have?


Ellyn Sergio--Peace out!

thankful thursdays?

I know that my dear cousin started to blog about thankful thursdays....but i am having a hard time being thankful for Thursdays.....

1. Chelsea doesn't finish volleyball practice until 10 p.m. and by the time I dtop off the carpool, it is almost 11!!!

2. This means I miss Grey's Anatomy! Thank goodness for Tivo!

3. I usually miss Alex's bball games becasue of volleyball practice!

4. If your church is trying to "find itself". Don't--DO NOT volunteer to be on teh church records team!!! I spent 6 hours today going thru old bulletins to find the number of new members added in 10 years!!!! AAAAAAHHHHHH

5. I now have to go thru old directories and compare and find people who we "lost" over those said 10 years!

Good Things about today--

--Guitar hero is a GREAT way to put off and relieve the stress of the aforementioned task!
--Grey's Anatomy
--Tomorrow is Friday
--Tomorrow is my day off!
--Tivo
--I got Baja Fresh for lunch
--I found out that Sonic just opened in Fredericksburg!! That is only 45 minutes away.....If i didn't have to pick up a certain teenage girl from volleyball practice, i would so go tonight!!!

So tell me, what are you thankful for this Thursday?
