PROM

Tomorrow night (Saturday) is Newton's prom.

If I were to attend and size were no issue, this is the dress I would wear.

Here's to all the prom goers!

~~Stay safe

~~Make sure to fill up on those delicious abstinence candy bars

~~Most of all, have the most fun you can possibly have!

Cooper's Party

Coop riding on the Spiderman scooter that Jack gave him for his birthday.
Gabe and I had a little game of egg toss.
His Mother was so pleased with both of us.
Can't you just hear Cooper giving Gabe the Nelson HA HA (Simpsons) laugh.



Jack and Michelle in a relay race.
Michelle was not letting Jack win.

Dexter--get your motor runnin'

Cooper and Jack on the egg hunt.

Uncle Cliff helped Dexter find some eggs.

AI...the day after

Carly is still gone. It is not a bad dream.

~~~

I did read that Brooke is a Mormon. They seem to be in the news a lot lately, so maybe that is helping her out somehow.

~~~

With this shocking turn of events there were no changes to the pool point standings. Rebekah is still in the lead.

shock

...hard to type, fingers covered in the remains of the thin mints I ate to drown my sorrows after hearing Carly Smithson was voted off

Calgon take me away.......

Has anyone been to the new dayspa in Newton?

I am hoping for a gift certificate for Mother's Day!

The laundress

Last night when Cliff got home from school around 9:45, Jack proceeded to tell him how he was SOOO good at just about everything. He was good at fixing the basketball hoop, good at changing the light bulbs, good at getting the bouncy balls out of the bathroom sink drain (long story), and he was a very good electricitier (Cliff is an electrician).

I then asked Jack what I was good at, he said "ummm, I don't know, laundry."

--by the way, I realize Jack should have been in bed at 9:45

American Idol

Ahh, musical night on American Idol. WHAT!!!!!! I love the musical theater probably a lot more than the average person, but the music of Andrew Lloyd Weber & American Idol do not mix.

~~~

I felt bad for Jason Castro who had not seen a musical, nor did he know that the song Memory was from CATS, sang by a cat, luckily like usual, he looked like he had just finished his 5th joint of the day before coming on stage, so I think he was pretty happy either way.

~~

Did Brooke White's stopping and starting again remind anyone of Tonya Harding and the shoe string?? Poor Brooke, she seemed so needy singing "You Must Love Me", it was like YOU MUST love me......PLEASE, love me. I am over her.

~~

Karly was wonderful and I thought she looked awesome. She is still my favorite to win it all. She won't, but it would make me happy.

~~

Word is American Idol's ratings are the lowest they have ever been. Maybe doing entire nights of Mariah Carey and Andrew Lloyd Weber could be part of the reason why. Contestants have always been told to stay away from the crazy powerhouse that is Mariah so..........let's do an entire night of her tired old ballads!

~~

That's my AI rant. Until they start doing Marilyn Manson theme nights, I will keep on watching. Who am I kidding, I would watch Marilyn Manson theme night.

~~

If you are playing in the AI pool, get me your bottom three. Even if you did not watch, take a guess, you have a one in 6 chance.

Happy Earth Day!!

In honor of Earth Day, Sarah Sez will share an environmentally friendly tip:

IF IT'S YELLOW, LET IT MELLOW

IF IT'S BROWN, FLUSH IT DOWN

...just doing my part

FOX & American Idol

If you are like me, you have been without the Terre Haute Fox station (channel 8 or 38) since the middle of last week's AI results show. With tonight being American Idol night, I checked out the WTWO website to see if they had an update for their sister station. Here is what they had to say:

WFXW transmitter repairs will not be completed until Wednesday, April 23. Therefore, American Idol will air on WTWO from 8pm-9pm, Tuesday, April 22.

GOOD NEWS!!!

So, for all you AI pool participants, you know what to do. If you live around here, watch AI on WTWO. Send me your bottom three before 7:00 tomorrow night. Good luck!
