I haven't felt like blogging lately and I don't know why. It's not that there's nothing going on, that certainly hasn't stopped me before. I have been sleeping better and I've been finding things to do while The Boy is at work, so I seem to not have as much time for it. And TV has been really good lately, so that's always a priority. I guess with being out of town for the weekend and Van being gone as well, my routine is just off. I'll try to do better.
TV has been really good this week. This was probably the best week of American Idol so far. Phil did great, Lakisha finally got her groove back, Melinda proved she can rock as well as she can do everything else, Chris was only partially unlistenable. Jordin, poor thing, was pretty much totally unlistenable, but I give her a pass because 1) she knew it, 2) she's usually awesome, and 3) she's just so darn cute.
Blake was just WOW. I was definately in the 50% that loved his performance. That is probably my favorite Bon Jovi song, and I was really really nervous before he began, but I was totally blown away by him. I found video of it online the next day and made the Vansome watch within the first 10 minutes after he got home. He loved it too, as much as I did.
Something about Blake has been bugging me for a while. Certain expressions he has remind me of someone and I have not been able to put my finger on it until Tuesday. I knew it was somebody I knew in real life, not a celebrity, but other than that I was lost. Well, right before the show started, The Boy's best buddy Mikey came over to the house, the first time I've seen him in a couple of months. He smiled and there was Blake! Mystery solved! I told him, but he doesn't watch the show. I went to Idol Forums and found some pictures of Blake and he could see the resemblance.
I am very grateful to Mikey because he is responsible for The Boy's j-o-b. That is still going very well. I've been getting some free pizza out of the deal lately. They really do make some awesome pizza, or at least my boy does. Still, I'm looking forward to seeing him develop skills that will lead to a career.
I'm having a hard time deciding what to do about some show overlap tonight. I could watch The Office and tape CSI, but I don't know that I would get around to watching it later. The Vansome is not a fan of The Office, he finds it too painful to watch. The smart thing would be to tape The Office, but all the NBC shows are expanded tonight, so I'm not really sure about start and end times. In other words, I'm trying to decide if it's worth the trouble. I'm leaning towards not. Someday I'll have TIVO, then I'll really be a worthless lump of TV addiction.
Kroger has large quantities of Dark Chocolate Kissables on their clearance aisle, 85 cents for a good size bag. Of course I had to stock up. I've had The Boy hiding them, but he let me have a whole bag tonight and I'm making myself sick on them. The Vansome noticed my plight (after hearing me rattle the bag for the 50 millionth time) and has graciously removed them from my presence. That was about two sentences ago and I'm already experiencing withdrawal. I think I may have a problem.
