This is in response to Jaynee’s comment, but I think it’s worthy of addressing to everyone…

Yep! One of Katharine’s button’s popped in her slit in the dress and we saw some what appeared to be yellow panties. I watched it back on TIVO to confirm and sure enough you definitely see a pop.

And go to dialidol.com! You download the software and then pick people to vote for. Hook your modem up to a phone line and it dials constantly for the entire two hours. You don’t even have to enter the phone numbers. It connects to the service and inputs it. It was SO easy. It lets you know how everyone else using the software is voting and THEN when it’s done, predicts the person getting booted. And it’s been right the past 2 weeks. And yeah, that’s how they get 45 million votes. People like me that get in 351 votes by computer.

“Next week the Top 5 will perform 2 songs. One song will be from the year they were born, and the other will be songs that are in the Billboard charts this week. There will be no guest appearances. ”

Oh, please, Chris, do What Hurts the Most or You’re Beautiful. Not sure his voice would do well with You’re Beautiful. I would die if he did What Hurts the Most. Maybe more than Haveyoueverreallylovedawoman. Go ahead and set up the oxygen for me.

Last night went really well. There were only 4 of us but we all got along really well. Almost like the 10 years weren’t even there. And we made some good progress. Silly me volunteered for stuff. And in more important things, I got complimented on my hair and the fact that it doesn’t look like I’ve had 2 kids. Ok, enough pimping myself.

Scott is working today and the girls are home all day. Emma has an End of Year “thing” at school tonight. I went to the gym last night, maybe I’ll make it tonight after her “thing”. These nightly sundaes are not doing much for my weight. Actually, it’s doing a lot TO my weight.

I’m having a reunion of sorts tonight. Somehow I got invited to a group of people planning the reunion for this year. We’re meeting at restaurant to work on the reunion. I haven’t seen some of these people in the 10 years since school. Hopefully I won’t feel like a dork tonight. Wish me luck.

CHRIS. SANG. HAVEYOUEVERREALLYLOVEDAWOMAN. I. LOVE. THAT. SONG.

I was just talking with someone and we said they needed to do a Bryan Adams night. Wow. Ok, obviously I loved Chris last night. I even installed dialidol and it voted 351 times for Chris for me. Very nice. Elliott was good last night too although I’m not a huge fan of his, he can at least hit all his notes. Katharine had a good performance, but not great vocals. And did you catch the wardrobe malfunction? Great live tv. Taylor was good but not fabulous. Paris was ok but forgettable. Kellie was BAD. Some of it was good but all the important stuff was really bad. She needs to go home although my gut says Paris probably will.

I downloaded the mp3s for a guy at work that missed it last night. You can hear them here. I got them from rickey.org.

Feeling better today. Scott and I talked last night in a very rational, calm manner after I got back from bible study. I think we both see where our issues are and we’ve had the same conversation a badillion times, it’s just doing what we’re supposed to. I would like to think one day we’ll get passed all our issues but I’m guessing we’ll always have something to make better.

Scott finished the deck and fence this morning. Yay! The only thing left is doing the arbor at one of the entrances to the fence. We still have to pick a design.

Yay for AI tonight. Can’t wait. I had to break out the dialidol for chris tonight. Can’t be in the bottom two again.

I’m at work this morning. Feeling just kind of numbish. Don’t really want to be here, don’t really want to be at home working. Just don’t really want to work at all. Still.

Friday Scott got home. Honestly, it was rough getting back into the groove of things and really I don’t think we’re yet into it. Scott just handles the kids so differently than me sometimes and we butt heads. And his overall attitude just plain sucks sometimes. And it gets me in a bad attitude. And of course everything from Dec got brought up and it made it worse when I came into work this morning. So I’m just in an ugh mood really.

Saturday it rained almost all day. Emma had a birthday party in the afternoon. Scott took her while Lexi took her long afternoon nap. She’s down to one 3 hour nap in the afternoon now. After that, we took the kids to MIL and Scott and I went to the mall. I exchanged some things at the Loft which I need to exchange again and we stopped at Cheesecake Factory for dessert. Yummy. Sunday was spent at church and napping. It was pretty much an uneventful weekend that went by way too fast.

Good news is BIL is back in the States. SIL is gone to see him for a day or two. He should be home for good in about a week. Also in great news J&W are pregnant again.

Not into writing much more. Maybe I’ll be in a better mood later.

OK, I have caught up on a bunch of stuff around here. Including doing my entire weeks worth of bible study homework because it was SO good. I also started a to-do list and volunteer list for the place training. And I got my supply list almost complete for VBS. Oh, and I got all the laundry done and just have one more pile of my clothes to hang up. I think Scott feels a little unnecessary since we are not falling apart here. MIL has had them two afternoons so that has helped but honestly, Scott is usually off doing something even on his days off and rarely just sits at home so it is still feeling pretty normal so far. I hope this bodes well if he ever gets hired with the ATF.

I think I am still in a state of shock over Chris being in the bottom 2. Ugh! I will be breaking out the dialing software next week or voting until my fingers hurt next week. He will not go before Paris, Elliott or Kellie. Or Katharine for that matter. I can handle Taylor winning but would be upset if anyone else did. So I’m glad Ace went home. Finally. Now for next week, I think Kellie or Paris can go.

I think Lexi just said Juice to Mattie. I think she got the J out and the s sound at the end.
