Almost as dissapointing as the Rangers

I am in utter shock right now. How in the world could Chris be booted off AI? I know I voted. Did you? Everyone loves him. Even the audience was just as shocked. I have never seen an audience so stunned since I have been watching the show. Is everyone upset because they kept saying ‘Oh, he doesn’t need my vote, everyone is voting for him?’ I know as I was hitting redial then getting busy signal, redial then getting busy signal, redial then getting busy signal until my fingers almost fell off. My husband kept saying that he didn’t need my vote. I finally got my vote in and said that I wanted him to win by a long shot and every vote counts. I guess that’s why I vote in the presidential elections and he doesn’t. Every vote means something.

So, how can he be so loved and so adorned and be booted off? It’s my theory that they rigged it somehow. Katherine keeps messing up her lyrics, Taylor sings like someone is twisting a twig in his ass, and honestly Elliott really doesn’t have a good voice. AI is ALMOST not worth watching anymore.

Sex symbol?

I think Kevin Covais is the only American Idol top 12 that doesnt shave. Let me get that straight, even the females shave, somewhere. My question is how can you be a sex symbol if you don’t even have to shave?

Mr. & Mrs. Dork Bring in the New Year

I have to admit, I think that we are the biggest dorks out there. The only bottle of liquor in the house is an ingredient in my mothers’ sweet potato pie recipe which both have been passed down to me. Our idea of a great night out is dinner at Chili’s and a movie. We put T-Shirts on our child that say things like ‘I TCP/IP but mostly IP’ and ‘Newbie’ and plan on making him watch the whole Star Wars series and then quiz him to make sure he was paying attention by the time he is 5.

What are your plans for New Years? Would like to know what these dorks are doing? We have made plans with a bunch of our friends and we are going to eat dinner at a small local Mexican place at 6:30. After dinner we will be coming back to our place and play with Baby J till bedtime at 9. Then all the festivities will begin. We will whip out the bags of chip, dip and snacks. Crack open the cans of diet coke and start partying. First we will play some Mario Party 7, then when we get tired of playing that and realize that half of our company is bored as a doorknob we will play Taboo, then Shout About Movies, then stop at 11:57 to watch the ball drop, kiss and cheer and then we will whip out one of the 10 something versions of Triva and play that till we are ready to pass out. We will go to bed, wake up and be pissed that nothing is opened and there is nothing to do. I guess you can say we would be lucky that we wont have a hangover, right?

What is the sad thing about all of this, R felt the need that we should send out an Evite for this very exciting evening.

Handhelds are Out of Control

This is just sad. Our friends that have moved to California are here visiting. The two of them and my husband are all sitting in the living room with me. I am watching one of my DVR’ed shows and the three of them are playing Metroid Prime Pinball over the wireless network on 3 separate Nintendo DS’s. The funny thing is that all three of them are different colors. I’m sitting here trying to watch my beloved Law and Order show, trying to pay attention to Dennis Farina and all I hear is boom, bang, and whooof’s. R is sitting here raving how he should have a DS party where everyone comes over with their DS’s and they play games over the wireless. Too bad not all of our friends own a DS.

What are they going to come up with next? And poor Dennis for not having my full attention.

A Horrible End to a Perfect Day

Why is it that the hardest things to handle happen when you are alone. Tonight R is in Atlantic City for a concert and I have the house to myself and baby J. We had a little excitement here tonight before bed. J had slipped in the bathroom and hit his head. I kept him up to make sure he was ok. He is fine. Started laughing and handing me books within minutes. Then R calls and tells me he doesn’t feel well and missed his concert.

I decided to watch this past Thursday’s episode of ER. What a bad idea to do when I am all by myself. A little girl was shot with a stray bullet. Her mom was in the room with her and she was talking to her daughter. She was telling her that it is ok to let go and to move on to the next ‘place’. That she loves her very much and so on. I just cant write all of it. Fortunately the little girl survived.

I just saw myself with my mom at the end of the first night of Passover this year. The doctors told us that she wasn’t going to make it until the morning. I sat next to her and said {almost} everything this mother said to her daughter. I cried and told her that she should watch us from above. I told her that I would miss her and that I really love her.

It’s amazing how much it hurts to feel the loss. Laurel, you should have warned me not to watch this tonight.

The Best of L&O

Who do we call when WE get raped? –Detective Odafin ‘Fin’ Tutuola, Law & Order: SVU

If you haven’t figured it out, I am a huge Law & Order fan. I have to watch every episode, even the re-runs, carefully. If R walks in the room to tell me he is going to bed, I will pause it. If I miss one word, I will go back and make sure I know what that word was. Then I would go back some more to make sure I understand it in the right context. I got this quote from this weeks episode of SVU. I think my DVR button is about worn out now. It was just too funny.

There’s Gotta Be a 12 Step Program for This

I think I have a serious problem. I haven’t watched any of my shows in about a week because of the Thanksgiving week craze. Tonight I just started to itch like a heroine junkie starting to go through withdrawals. I couldn’t wait to get Baby J to sleep so I can turn on my DVR and get watching.

When I finally heard the very familiar Da-Ding of the most recent episode of Law and Order I just let out a big sigh of complete relief. Ahhhhh. I feel better now. I really don’t know what I would do without my Law & Order lineup. I seriously would be lost and might actually have to say that there is nothing worth watching on the tube.

Madaga..What?

We just finished watching the movie Madagascar. I am sitting here wondering if there is a part 2. R is searching the DVD as I type. It was a good movie and it was freakin hilarious but we kinda wonder what happened. The lion doesn’t eat for days and finds satisfaction in sushi? Um, I don’t know if this is such a great message. I know lions eat fish, but, uhh?!? Each animal has such specific instincts that you can’t change them or alter them. That’s why we can’t keep baby tigers as house pets even though they are so cute. I would have loved to see this movie end in a way that the lion recognizes that he is a predator and his friends understand that and accept it. Oh, and the lion just knows not to eat his friends because that would be bad.

Sometimes I just think that these animators are dying to make movies that look really cool that the movies and their stories are leaving us hanging. Now sit me infront of Monsters, Inc. or Finding Nemo and I’m a happy camper.
