What a night for television!

American Idol from 7pm-8:30pm, Supernatural from 8pm-9pm, and The Amazing Race from 8pm-10pm. Impossible to watch all of them at once!

First with American Idol...tonight was the top 10 girls performing. I have a couple favorites so far, and there were a couple that I think have some potential, but picked some songs that didn't impress me. It's amazing how one week the judges will say "We want to see more of you", then the next week when you do a song to show your personality, they say "You looked like you were having fun, but your song selection wasn't good." Sometimes you just can't win, lol. Tomorrow night is the guys turn, another 90 minute show, 2 of each to be eliminated on the Thursday results show.

Moving to The Amazing Race, in case Kerry hasn't seen the second half of it yet, I won't give anything away. Let's just say the team I was HOPING and WISHING would be eliminated wasn't. Some teams had some real struggles, with the language, with directions, even with just getting along with each other. I'm amazed with all the time they were in Sao Paolo, Brazil, going all over town in several taxis, most of the teams were trying to communicate in Spanish. Only a couple of the teams knew or figured out that Portuguese is the language of Brazil, not Spanish. And none of the taxi drivers or people they met corrected them. I know they didn't know where they were going ahead of time, but I would find someway to include a book (there has to be one somewhere) that lists the languages of every country, since they knew they would be going all over the world this time, not just in North America.

Lastly, Supernatural...which I haven't watched. I had to tape that, because obviously I couldn't watch that while I was watching two other shows at the same time, lol. I watch Supernatural because I think it's very fascinating, and it doesn't hurt that one of the lead characters is a real hottie!! Click for Jensen's website.

Anyway, off to bed. Sleep tight, don't let the bedbugs bite!

I'm BAAAAAAAAAAAACK!!!!!!!!

The Olympics are finally over! WTG to all the countries who participated, except maybe Austria, because of the doping problems. Now my life can get back to some normalcy, relatively speaking. I enjoyed watching the olympics, but it was hard staying up till 10:30 or 11pm every night. And the commercial breaks were so short, I didn't have enough time to run to the computer to try to write something up. So I said to heck with it, and waited till they were done and I can post when I want, and go to bed at a decent time, lol

My big news that I might be mentioning again in the future is that I joined a dating service called The Right One. I decided that I wasn't going to find anyone sitting on my ass at home, and all my friends are married, and where am I going to go to find someone worth meeting? Today in the mail, I received the first of 6 "matches" they will make for me. I should hear from him in the next couple of days. Wish me luck, if nothing else, I should meet some very nice men.

On another positive note, last week we received our performance reviews at work. I got a 5% raise retroactive to Jan 1, plus a FANTASTIC bonus! This will pay for my enrollment in the dating service, so it all worked out perfectly! And I might have some extra left over to pay off my remaining Christmas bills, lol

Kerry and I have gone nuts with the music! So many cd's we're sending back and forth to complete our collections. And so many cd's yet for us to look for at the stores. This will keep us out of trouble for quite awhile (and out of cash, lmao).

Just wanted to let everyone know that I plan on a return to blogging as soon as the Olympics are over. Since they are on from 7pm-10:30pm, and I go right to bed after, I don't have any time left to post here. I'll be back soon!
