This weekend similar to how I predicted. Friday night just the 4 of us went out to eat. The girls were really good. Then we went to SIL’s house to see BIL. And Emma was spending the night with MIL so we dropped her off with them. Emma stayed with them until Saturday evening. Saturday I got my hair cut…more like styled differently. I didn’t really get much cut off the length. Then we went with C&D to a furniture store. THEN, Saturday night we had a cookout for BIL at our house. Scott and I loved having everyone over, especially with the new deck. It’s great! Sunday we went to church and I cleaned/did bills/did laundry. It was really quite a productive day.

Bad news on my project at work. Looks like it might get cut due to new technology coming out, for a lack of energy to explain the entire reason. Bummer because I will have absolutely nothing to do if this is over.

Bible study has been going really good. It really has hit me where I needed it most. I’m gaining a little insight into what happened and why and what to do about it. I just feel like it could not have come at a better time except maybe right before it! But who knows it, it may still have happened.

Tomorrow night I’m supposed to go out with my bf from school, M. I expect we’ll have a good time talking over dinner. I just wish our closeness we had once was still there. I just feel disconnected from her now, which is really sad.

*spoiler*
So GA was really good last night! On the storylines…I love Denny! I hear he is getting a new heart in the finale of the season on 5/15. Which it’s going to kill me (no pun intended) because I think our cliffhanger will be whether Denny dies and also I hear it will be whether Meredith picks Finn or Derek. And hey, hey, hey how about McVet. Isn’t he great? I think Chris O’Donnell is doing a fine job fitting in with the GA vibe and although I don’t see anything long-term for them, I sure will enjoy it while it lasts. And they birthed a horse together. How sweet was that? I think they wanted to get it on right after that though. Apparently they did at his place even though they said they wouldn’t (what was that about) and did you see Derek? He was not so happy about that! And I totally did not catch the fact that it was Meredith on the phone with Derek at the beginning of the episode. I hated the scene at the end with Burke and Christina. Her face was contorted like she had gas. Not emotion. Just was weird and seemed out of character, which I think it was meant to be, but it didn’t go over well for me. What else? Loved the divorce attorney asking about divorces and Derek, says, Yes! No! I’m fine, thank you. As if he were turning down a cappucino. And people, I still do not like Callie. At all. This sounds bad, but I think it’s because she’s bigger than him. I mean, physically. And she’s so..demanding/overpowering. Like, if it was the cute red-head nurse coming up into Mer’s house to move back in, I would be thinking, aw, how cute. But no, I’m like that’s weird. And why are you looking at Izzie that way, woman? I’m just not a fan.

No scoop on AI except that Katharine and not Taylor is singing Black Horse and the Cherry Tree and Paris is singing Kiss by Prince, but possibly another version. I think there was more, but I can’t remember. If you haven’t checked out this blog, it’s great. Looks like they have more current spoilers up.

So I guess the contestants know the themes well before we do because Kellie said in an interview yesterday (I think) that she was going to pick “You Give Love a Bad Name” for her birth year for next week. I know they change songs even up to a day before the show though. Someone said Taylor had to change his song this week on Monday because his other one didn’t get approved. Which may explain why he didn’t do as well this week. Anyway.

I think Chris could also do Right Here by Staind I believe.

Emma’s program turned out really cute last night. We were the silly parents waving to their children in the audience. But she sang and did the motions and everything. She was standing beside her best friend Jules and you could tell she was much more comfortable with her there than she was at Christmas without her. It’s so cute!

BIL is coming home today for good from being in Afghanistan. Scott just left a little while ago to bring them in with his patrol car. I kinda wish I went to see it. The kids are gone with Mom and I’m workin my little hiney off!

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.
