Okay, so was it me, or last night on American Idol, did they show a whole lotta bad singers while simultaneously putting through more good ones from one city than they ever have before? 26 went through in two days? And we get an hour of crap. With ff’ing through the crud, it took about ten minutes to watch the whole thing. And did we really have to end with bikini boy? Really, show? Shudder.

However, of the good singers we did get a glimpse of, there were some good ones, and some interesting stories as well. Also, show of hands who thought Helium Italia was going to sound like Minnie Mouse when she sang, and ended up being Kylie Minogue? Wait… Plus Jack Black? And Motorcycle Guy looks like the younger brother of the model on the cover of Here Comes Trouble, does he not? And I’m still pleasantly surprised by how much I love Posh Spice. I know! One more city tonight, then next week we finally move on to Hollywood Week. And I, for one, and more than ready to see what we’ve got this season.

What I’ve got right here is about six more inches of a whole lot of lovely puffy white snow clinging to everything and making it look beautiful. Until, you know, you actually have to go drive in it. Which I have to do this morning in order to go teach an altered art class. Something so wrong about that when most days I make the bunny slipper commute down the hall to work. I have a memo into Mother Nature, but she keeps seeming to misplace it.

But while I’m playing intrepid traveler, you all can be entering my Valentine’s Day Free Stuff Friday two week giveaway. See Monday’s post for all the chocolatey goodness and details on how to enter. Good luck!

And now? DISH!!
