AMERICAN IDOL!!!!!


Call me names all you want. I REALLY don't care. :) Here's what I love about American Idol. During the auditions, I pick my favorites. I also enjoy watching to see if there is anyone I know!! haha, ya right! I love hearing someone, and KNOWING they are the one, the one I will love!!! If they make me cry when they sing - Clay - they get my vote. And I really don't enjoy the bad ones...well the REALLY bad ones, who just want to get on TV, those I enjoy. And I feel SO bad for the ones who really think they are awesome...oh my...

And you all may know...I am FAR too old to audition. So I just do it vicariously through them! When the theme music comes on...It makes me teary. There is just something about it. It's the ordinary guy or gal, with a dream to be a famous singer.

I LOVE when the guests come on and teach them. I cry with them when they get to meet who ever it is. Of course my fav is always me sweetie Barry Manilow. He REALLY cares about those kids, and you can tell!!

So my world is about to get a little brighter. Food tastes better, I look prettier, and the air feels cleaner, this time of year..."American Idol" (said like Ryan says it)... is on it's way... and IT JUST ROCKS!!! No matter what you say!!!
