Great Day

This has been one of those enjoyable, no stress days. I went to Twin Falls to spend some much needed quality sister time with Whitney. We went to lunch at Jaker's (James and my favorite). I had Tess and Nate and with Whitney's boys Hank and Joe we were quite the group. The boys spent the entire meal under our table, but we figured that was better than running around. Anyway-Jaker's is this fantastic steak house with hot scones and soups to die for. Lunch was worth the trip alone. We then hit my regular Twin Falls pit stops and bumped into some steal-of-a-deals. I always feel like I can dress my kids when I can find $2-3 clothing at Old Navy. Yahoo! I also took care of my sweetheart's b-day surprises and can't wait to give them to him. He and Mark will celebrate their b-days on Saturday at the "Outer Limits Fun Zone". Pictures will be posted later...

OK-OK-OK....David C. absolutely kicked AI backside tonight. He totally rocked and I really, really loved his performance. He looked nice and actually sounded good and didn't come across as an arrogant high schooler. Good job David C.! If his performances stay like tonight's, I can see me crossing to the dark side...that is if my favorites are all booted as we know they will be. As for my favorite, I loved Jason's performance as well. It was a good way to end the show. I will make a new prediction and say that both David's will be in the final two...anyone up for the challenge? A giant bag of M&M's still stands as the prize. Anyone who would like to wager is welcome too and I won't shy from sending out multiple bags. These are my predictions until the end of the season. Let's see if I'm wrong.

I felt bad for the girls tonight, because honestly, who can do Mariah? The boys were at an advantage because there is no way they would be compared to a female singer. The girls on the other hand would be. None of the girls did particularly well tonight, with Sayesha as a slight exception. The bottom 3 will certainly be composed of any combination of girls. Let's hope its Kristy Lee going home, although I'm afraid it will be Brooke. I still like her, but she just didn't deliver tonight...and another favorite will bite the dust. My heart still aches for Michael. It always seems like at this time in the season with 5-7 idols left, one of the fan favorites is sent home. Wouldn't it have been interesting to hear what he would have done with a Mariah Carey song? I found Mariah quite nice tonight. I have never really liked her and have always thought that she came across as a prima donna, and I'm sure she is, but she was surprisingly nice.
