American Idol
I was very disappointed with last night's show. I really didn't like ANY of the performances, but I had to vote for my favs since each call was worth money to feed the poor.
I always knew Simon had a heart and he showed it last night. It is so hard to imagine that people live in those conditions everyday. It is so nice to see those children smiling, but it breaks your heart at the same time.
I hope this evening's result shows lives up to the hype. I am looking forward to seeing how much money was raised and who is going home.

SANJAYA is GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry to bump Colin down, but I am so happy that Sanjaya is gone. His singing Tuesday night was so aweful I had to turn the volume down.
Last night, I started getting excited when Jordan was put in the other group. I knew then he was in the bottom 3. However, I was so worried that Latisha was going to be sent home and Rob said that if that happened he was NEVER watching the show again. I loved Simon with his huge grin. Boy did Sanjaya cry like a baby when he was kicked off.
This is now a singing competition and I am looking forward to seeing how the next few weeks play out.

A bit lighter...
John always likes to tell me that there are more than four websites on the Internet. I know that, but I have a small list of favorites that I like to visit over and over. I'm a regular at UKUS Forum, which is a forum for expatriates living in the UK. I also read The Morning Call online everyday, and I have a quick look at MSNBC and CBSNews.com. Last year when I got pregnant and John informed me that he wanted to quit his engineering job of 18 years to be a househusband, I started hanging out at Frugal Village and Frugal Families, because I knew we were going to have to tighten things up a little if we were going to go from two incomes to one. I'm a regular e-bayer, since I buy and sell lots of kids' clothes there. Lately I've been spending some time at Creuse Tourism because that's where we're spending our summer vacation. And of course, there's the blog.
What are your cyberhangouts? Discuss.

Shooting At Virginia Tech
I just saw on a CBS News Special Report that there was a shooting this morning at VA Tech. 20 people dead including the gunman. Colin, if you are reading the blog, please let us know you are ok! This sent chills down my spine just like any other time something like this happens, but knowing someone who is at the location of such a tragedy makes it even worse. It was already a year ago since the incident at Northampton where my neice and nephew go. Thankfully, that was nothing like this. But, I can still remember coming out of Giant, hearing the helicopters, and the rush of panic that set in. So, if anyone knows more or has heard from Colin, please update us. Thoughts and prayers!

Dirty Little Secrets
Everyone has a skeleton in their closet. Everyone has a little secret they don't want anyone to know about. Here's mine.
I'm married to a man who loves to watch Divorce Court and Judge Judy. He's on the sofa right now, giving the boy his breakfast and watching Judge Mablean. He laughs alot, particularly when people get mad and do "that thing with their neck. Why do Americans do that thing with their neck?" These are the sorts of questions I get. I tell him if the neck thing bothers him so much he should turn it off. No, he can't. It's like a car crash. He wants to look away, but he can't.
I'm so ashamed.
