************idol spoilers******************

I was so glad to see the Pickler go last night. It was even worth suffering through her awful goodbye video. Even the boys were doing a happy little dance of joy.

It's off to campus this afternoon where I will try and cram a week's worth of reading and research into a couple of hours. I have a serious case of end-of-semester-itis. I was hoping to get all of my writing done before I leave for Kalamazoo but it looks as if I will be bringing it with me--again.

Another beautiful day--sun is shining, Mets won in extra innings, Pickler is finally gone, C has baseball practice and I am off to study in the sunshine.

******idol results below**********

This was my favorite week of Idol hands down.

Please send the Pickler home, 'k?

Ace's hair will be the hot topic of discussion. I was stunned. Chris was amazing and hot and sexy. I even liked Paris this week. She was in her element. I adored Elliot but it could be because he sang our wedding song ;) Great songs. How can you not love the song book?

I hesitate to pick a bottom three this week but I think it is going to be Pickler, Elliot (unfortunately) and maybe Ace. Taylor?

Tough to call this week. Still think Pickler needs to go.

So, I confess, there are a few country tunes in the mix on the mp3. Not many, let's not get crazy, but I do have a few and I have been known to belt them out while driving in the car. I wasn't dreading country night as much as some people were. I knew it wouldn't be my favorite but I thought it might be fun.

That said--what was going on last night on Idol???

Country night was painful.

Go on over to Idol Chatter and post your guesses for the bottom three. Who is going home this week?

Unfortunately, I think we are doomed to another week of the Pickler but let me know your choices.

a little shocker in the bottom three but no surprise about who left last night

next week? country week. could be scary and unfortunately will help pickler stay for another round.

That's the only word I have for last night's Idol.

Idol Chatter post is up if anyone wants to gripe about last night's poor song choices and lackluster performances. Even the hot guys were disappointing last night. I hope they all get a stern talking to and realize what they have done. I am very disappointed in them.

(Glad we watched King Kong and fast forwarded through Idol!)

*****yup, more American Idol chit chat*******

As if the wife beater t wasn't bad enough, the Pickler was sporting some hideous make-up last night that appeared to have been applied with a spackling knife. orange plaster is never a good look.

Still loving Chris and his rocking Vin Deisel-ness.

Go on over to idol chatter and make your predictions for who gets the boot tonight. My money is on Lisa (but I am keeping my fingers crossed that it's either Squinty Kevin or the Pickler)
