You would think that I would remember that it was 'that' time again wouldn't you? But nooooooo, not me. I ended up doing dishes and laundry and then at the last minute realized that I had seriously goofed up and missed the one show that I have enjoyed this season. Well, other than Deadliest Catch on Discovery, doesn't everyone watch that show too?
This means, of course, that I will have to go to the Americal Idol website or You Tube and watch the performances after the fact which really loses something in the doing. Maybe it's because I have to watch it on the computer instead of my T.V. and I miss my daughter screaming "Blake, Blake, I love you Blake." (Shaking my head, even though he is my favorite.) Not that I don't like the other contestants but Blake has got the "IT" factor down pat. Serious Karma going on over in Mr. Lewis' direction, I do declare.
Oh, okay. Let's see what else to update on. I know, the book progress. After a long and thoughtful discussion with myself I believe I've come up with a way to salvage the romance fantasy book. Maybe. I'm not quite sure yet but it has a definite possibility of surviving at least until next week when I take another look at it.
I hit a milestone on TWAB this week. By Friday I should be half way done with the first draft. I feel so productive with this story. I never ever quit working on it these last few months and I'm so glad that I didn't give up on it. It is the first book that I have plotted out by myself and not written by the seat of my pants. It's taken me some serious adjustment to write this way but I think I've saved myself a lot of time in the long run.
So in signing off for today...who is your favorite going into the finals? (for AI anyway) I'm currently reading a Kresley Cole book. If my brain were working correctly I could tell you the title. I'm sure I'll be able to tell you tomorow. Till then have a happy one!

Well, after last night when Chris got kicked off (sob), Blake better win, or AI is doomed for another idol who doesn't sell more than ten records (like last year's idol). All the girls can really sing, no doubt about that, but I see absolutely no commercial potential in any of them.
Of course, it's not up to me. (g)
BTW, I really love the new blog look!
I have to agree with you, Beth. While I like the girls a lot, well maybe Jordon has som commercial appeal, she is only 17 but I was really sorry to see Chris go. I liked him a lot and Phil had a great performance with Bon Jovi too didn't you think?
I think one of the reasons I like Blake so much is that he is original and a true performer. Wether he wins or not he will be catapulted into the entertainment industry stat. Both Chris and Blake are immensely talented.
Thanks for the compliments on the new blog. I was tired of the black, and wanted something nice and chipper.
I like Jordin has mass market appeal even thought Melinda has the best voice of all the contestants left. Blake, by far, was the best male vocalist in the group; plus, I like his unique flair. I could not stand Chris -- neither his appearance (his eyes looked drugged) nor his nasal tones. I had read a few of Kresley Cole's books -- they are fantastic, aye?
Oh Aye!
I like Kresley's books. I like it even better that she doesn't head hop. LOL!
Well, there was a huge amount of talent this year on American Idol. Huge. I hope that all of them get the jump start they need in their careers.
OMG. . .it has been months, hasn't it, since we last talked. I've missed you but been too damn busy to do much about it. Send me an email if you're around on Monday. Love you!!
