Let's Celebrate!

Okay, this seriously calls for a celebration. Are you ready for this? I had to be out—yes, again—during American Idol. But, and this is a big but, I actually recorded it. My VCR and I are getting along again. I'll keep my little friend and cherish the fact that I don't have to upgrade to new technology, since the old is working for me just fine. Well...now, that is.

So, there I am last night watching it after the fact because it was recorded, and I'm ranting at the judges, tirading my own critiques, and bellowing my advice. Then I stop. I look at my husband, who is so politely sitting beside me enduring all of it, and I say, "You know what's funny? I sit here and get all worked up as if my opinion even really matters."

I couldn't stop laughing at myself. Apparently my husband did not have any troubles not laughing. It seems he didn't find it quite as humorous.

Let's hope my friend (VCR) wants to be friendly again tonight, because I have to be out again during the elimination, which better not be Melinda, Lakisha, Blake, or Chris Richardson. Or I will seriously quit watching the show.

Yeah, right. That's like me saying I'll never eat Taco Bueno again. Totally impossible!
