Why American Idol Is Worth Watching

If you know me, you know we don't have a working TV at our apartment. You also would know that I don't like American Idol in the least.

But, if I DID have a T.V., this would be the one reason to watch A.I.

Man, he's got some pipes.

PS: Excuse the poor video quality.

PSS: Simon called this performance "the most self-indulgent bit of rubbish" he's ever seen.

Update

Hello blog readers...

I am currently on day 2 of spring break, and thus far have completed the following:

- got a facial (divine)

- cooked a meal for the Maclennan fam

- cleaned out our silverware drawer (strange.... but there was sprinkles in it!!)

- practiced Chopin's Nocturne in E minor

- vacuumed and dusted our little apartment

- attempted to get my identity back (i think i have a little problem with my social security # being used by someone other than me)

And, I am about to knock on my lovely neighbors' door and ask to steal their puppy for a walk...

Tomorrow, Isaac and i will have banana bread coming out of our ears!!!

I love vacation :)

• Get Italy details in order
• Palm Springs day trip with momma
• Go to the driving range with daddy-o
• Clean our carpets... yuck
• Take lunch to my roomies at work
• Finish A Tale of Two Cities
• Cook... especially to transform the heaping pile of ripe bananas in our freezer into bread
• Did I say relax?

To be continued...

DON'T SWALLOW BUBBLE GUM!

This made me chuckle... Hope it did the same for you! 

Grammar Lessons from God

Being a high school graduate, (almost) college graduate, 3 year AP English student, and living-mate to two gifted teachers, I have had my fair share of grammar and punctuation lessons to boot. But, no English lesson has profoundly struck me as these 2 little gems have:

1. Don't put a comma where God puts a period.

2. Don't put a period where God puts a comma.

I am learning to trust and rely on the fact that He is the author of our living epistles, and knows just what punctuation is perfect!
