Rihanna is All Legs and Heart

After Chris Brown got a "screw-you-every-battered-girl" sentence for beating the hell out of Rihanna, we hadn't seen much of the female pop-star.I imagine she was hiding out, fearing if she left, every dude would run up and start whacking her while setting the American flag on fire - see Chris Brown, this is what you started. Luckily, she got over these fears to grace us with her legs. I didn't

Goals....

While Brooklyn and his buddy, Bailey attended Transformers II on Sunday, I decided to get in a work out on my bike. It was a little warm, but not horribly hot. So, I took off with my helmet on. I got out of town (over the overpass for starters, which always has been a challenge for me in the past) and then to the highway. I got to riding and decided I thought I could make it to Berea. I almost quit a couple times, but I made it! Of course, then I had to ride back! But, I made it! I rode a bit over 20 miles total! I was proud of me....I couldn't do that at all last summer. So, even though I didn't win the "biggest loser contest", I have come a long way in the past few months! I was just proud to set that goal Sunday and stick to it, instead of turning back! I have to continue on and meeting new challenges. So, I may be bragging a bit, and that is not a desireable trait...but I just was excited to have met the goal I set! Now, back to being humble....and working on those darned state uploads at work today....today is D Day...the final day...and I guess I have the goal of getting those errors cleared that were generated when the assessment uploads got done on Friday....wish me luck!

YOUTH MISSES MEGAN AGAIN

KODAK'S attempt to arrange a meeting between Megan Fox and an 11-year-old admirer came out blank. In a p.r. stunt, the company offered $5,000 to anyone who could identify the youngster, who'd been photographed trying to give the "Transformers 2" siren a yellow rose at the London premiere. After Gawker identified the child as Harvey Kindlon, Kodak flew him to New York, hoping to get him an

Monday, Monday...

...wow, I haven't blogged. I haven't had thoughts. Hmmm. I have been keeping up on the blogs I read, and wonder how they come up with so many great things to write about. Maybe I'm having bloggers block?? Who knows? We have been keeping busy. It is such a busy time at work that I have been a bit, uh, overwhelmed, but it is all coming together. The evenings are spent spending time with Brooklyn and enjoying his company. He and I enjoy walking the dogs and bike riding. We put up the pool again in the back yard, so he has cooled off in there some too. I will post some photos soon. We had a nice weekend. It was hot, but not too bad. Sunday Brooklyn and his friend, Bailey attended the Sunday matinee...Transformers II. They said it was awesome, better than the first one, that you could tell right away how good it was, etc. etc...they had lots of comments!

Today was our eldest daughter, Chrissy's birthday! She is such a sweetheart...I hope she had a wonderful day.

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday to Chrissy! We love you so much! Hope you have a great birthday!

If You Really Listen - Sometimes You Get the Message

Sometimes in Mass on Sundays - I miss everything. I can be reading along with the Gospel and miss the whole thing.

Other times - I hear but I don't take anything away from the message.

In these moments, I feel that maybe I'm just not holy enough. Or not trying hard enough. If I were more prayerful, if I trusted God more... maybe He would speak to me. Maybe I could be uplifted. I just must not be trying hard enough.

But sometimes, God hits me right between the eyes.

Our Gospel reading this Sunday was from Mark 5:21-43. A story I am familiar with... but this time I learned something new.

There was a woman afflicted with hemorrhages for twelve years.
She had suffered greatly at the hands of many doctors
and had spent all that she had.
Yet she was not helped but only grew worse.
She had heard about Jesus and came up behind him in the crowd
and touched his cloak.
She said, "If I but touch his clothes, I shall be cured."
Immediately her flow of blood dried up.
She felt in her body that she was healed of her affliction.
Jesus, aware at once that power had gone out from him,
turned around in the crowd and asked, "Who has touched my clothes?"
But his disciples said to Jesus,
"You see how the crowd is pressing upon you,
and yet you ask, 'Who touched me?'"
And he looked around to see who had done it.
The woman, realizing what had happened to her,
approached in fear and trembling.
She fell down before Jesus and told him the whole truth.
He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has saved you.
Go in peace and be cured of your affliction."

Who touched me?
Are you serious? This huge crowd has been jostling you the whole way and now you want to know who touched you?!
But the Lord felt His healing power leave His body. She only touched His cloak.

Jesus doesn't ask me to be perfect. Not even perfect in prayer. He only asks that I reach out to Him. To reach out to Him, confident that He will help me.

That's an area I struggle with. Sometimes I come to Jesus in prayer with a flawed mindset. "Lord, please heal my loneliness. Show me a good man who loves You. Someone I can love, marry and have children with. I mean, I know You're not going to give me a husband, I'm pretty sure you don't even want to... but I'm asking anyway."

That is no way to reach out for His cloak! No! When we reach out to just touch his cloak... reaching out in faith, even among all the other people in the world... He knows it. He feels it!

I had to blink back tears with this realization!
I had to tell a friend! My friend MIME listened to my news and reminded me... what about the other part of the story? The part that sent Jesus walking through town at the request of the synagogue officials, Jairus whose daughter was near death. Jairus asked Jesus to come touch her and heal her.

While he was still speaking,
people from the synagogue official's house arrived and said,
"Your daughter has died; why trouble the teacher any longer?"
Disregarding the message that was reported,
Jesus said to the synagogue official,
"Do not be afraid; just have faith."
He did not allow anyone to accompany him inside
except Peter, James, and John, the brother of James.
When they arrived at the house of the synagogue official,
he caught sight of a commotion,
people weeping and wailing loudly.
So he went in and said to them,
"Why this commotion and weeping?
The child is not dead but asleep." And they ridiculed him. Then he put them all out.
He took along the child's father and mother
and those who were with him
and entered the room where the child was.
He took the child by the hand and said to her, "Talitha koum,"
which means, "Little girl, I say to you, arise!"
The girl, a child of twelve, arose immediately and walked around.
At that they were utterly astounded.
He gave strict orders that no one should know this
and said that she should be given something to eat.

MIME reminded me, when these people doubted that anything could be done - Jesus put them out.
You don't have faith? Get away from me!

This is our God. He doesn't ask us to be perfect. He asks us to believe. To have faith. Even a little bit of faith. Like a mustard seed. Just this little bit of faith - He knows. He knows your need. He knows your faith. He feels it. It matters. He cares.

If we ask or expect without faith - forget it.
Fair enough if you ask me.
I need to line up my thinking and remember that my God wants the best for me. He longs for me to have the desires of my heart. If I only have FAITH.

Jackson's final hours puzzle doctor, family

Both Michael Jackson's family and his personal physician were at pains to explain on Sunday what caused the troubled pop star's sudden death weeks before his long-awaited comeback. Dr. Conrad Murray, who was at Jackson's side when he died, told police he did not inject the singer with painkillers before his fatal cardiac arrest on Thursday, his lawyer said on Sunday after reports he

Sandra Bullock is Eliminating the Competition

Sandra Bullock is a dirty whore liar. She makes crazy statements about how being fat is sexy (wrong!), and yet, she's still wicked hot and weighs a grand total of 3 1/2 pounds... wet... while wearing a suit of armor. I'm not sure how she got the battlewear to weigh less, but somehow she did. "I go, 'Oh my God, I've got to lose weight so I can fit into this.' But I also go, 'I haven't been to the

Bradley Cooper on Jennifer Aniston: “she’s simply a friend”

Bradley Cooper was asked at an event on Friday in Paris if he had a hot new romance with Jennifer Aniston, with whom he had a well documented dinner date in New York last week. He said that he worked with her and that they’re friends, but he didn’t exactly deny that he was out on a date with her. The way he words his statement makes it sound like there could eventually be a romantic relationship

Michael Jackson dies at age 50, from heart attack

According to multiple reports, Michael Jackson had a heart attack Thursday, June 25 in his home in Los Angeles. Paramedics were called to the house, and they arrived shortly before 12:30 p.m. Michael wasn’t breathing, so the paramedics began performing CPR. He was then taken, by ambulance, to UCLA Medical Center. Around six p.m. tonight, TMZ confirmed Michael Jackson’s death. They claim Michael

Hilary Duff in a bikini

Here's Hilary Duff on vacation in Hawaii yesterday, and maybe it's just the shoulders, but I have to ask, when did she stop caring?I'm not saying Hilary looks bad, but when Britney Spears looks more toned than you, that's usually a sign to hit the gym. Or start FedEx-ing her Big Macs so you look better by comparison. Either one.Ok, don't get me wrong, I'm never going to say no to a hot celebrity

July 23 - August 22 Wednesday, June 24
If you have to spend the day handling a variety of different obligations and responsibilities that you need to deal with, you might end up resenting the fact that you're not able to do what you really want today. And if you find yourself starting to feel a little irritable, be careful of a tendency to be a bit critical or sarcastic right now. And just accept the fact that you'll probably have to make a few sacrifices before the day is through.

Olivia Munn is Topless...Sorta

I'm casting my vote for Olivia Munn as hottest geek alive. As the host of G4's Attack of the Show, she constantly talks about video games, dresses up in geek-fantasy costumes and was given a role in Iron Man2 because of it. Now, her photos of the July/August 2009 issue of Playboy have been released, and they're awesome... or as awesome as non-nude Playboy photos can be.Still, this is a blow for

Kardashian Bikini Time

Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian (the later who we have never talked about, surprisingly) were in Florida over the weekend, and did what they do best - nothing. The fat Kardashian and the short Kardashian put on bikinis, went to the beach, and gave everyone the privilege of looking at them. My favorite pic is the one with the dude holding the umbrella, because heaven forbid the girls get sun while

Megan Fox is the dumbest celebrity ever ?

The Daily Mail has a very funny and very sad story today. The title of this masterpiece of modern journalism is “Hollywood stars say the silliest things: She may be a movie beauty, but is Megan Fox the DUMBEST star ever?” As you can imagine, someone at The Mail was as flabbergasted as we were when reading some of the ridiculous interviews Megan Fox has given over the past few months. So they

Megan Fox hates America

While Megan Fox flaunted her stupid awesome breasts during the international tour for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, she apparently decided to shit all over the American flag by wearing some sort of toga at the LA premiere last night. At this point, my heart goes out to the lone soldier who bravely completes his mission so we can live in a country where Megan Fox's cleavage sells tickets to

Storms!

It seems that every night we have had some storms of some sort or another! Last night, I stayed up late working on some things for work, and right after my head hit the pillow (after 1 AM, I might add), the storm hit...and oh, my gosh, it was something! I think it was comparable to monsoons or something! Lots of trees, plants, etc, damaged, but luckily nothing major, at least that I know of....so hopefully not, anyway. But, the poor trees...this photo is from our local radio station site, KCOW Radio, and shows just one tree that was split. No hail this time, though! I stayed awake until a while after it all calmed down, so it was a very short night!

Anyone else get the feeling her daughters live in perpetual fear of getting doused with hot coffee because mommy can't focus on the camera and hold a cup at the same time?

On My iPod - the Rosary; Here's Why

At the start of 2007 I was determined to meet my husband. I wouldn't say I was desperate - I was just DONE being alone, and it was time to meet him.

I put out the call for all my friends to introduce me to someone that year - and I began praying the Rosary every night. I bought a CD of the Rosary, and a beautifully illustrated book of the mysteries of the Rosary to help me remember just how it went.

By the end of February I had met Mr. Burns. (the third guy I was introduced to)

Instantly, I knew I liked him. He was so many of the things I was looking for in a man - and so many more I didn't know I needed/wanted.

He couldn't believe I was real.
We became inseparable.
I was sure we'd be engaged by the end of the year.

You know much of the rest.
At some point, things got harder than hard. After 18 months together - he seemed stuck. Mired in some place that kept him from deepening our relationship. I still knew there was something really good there - but after keeping this thing afloat all by myself for so long, I needed a breather.
It was like our relationship was in this boat full of holes and the only way to keep it afloat was for me to hold it up from underwater. He gave me enough help to come up for air once in a while, but mostly, I was exhausted.

And I got out of the habit of praying the Rosary once I had what I wanted... and couldn't get back into it now that I needed assistance again.

Looking back now, we realize that our relationship went off the rails when his dad died unexpectedly. We had been dating for 5 months and everything was moving along just as you would expect - until Mr. Burns was hit with grief.

Hindsight has taught us that he was mired in that grief for longer than either of us realized.

In addition to that, I lost my job two months later. I found part-time work, but I had way too much free time.
He no longer saw the driven, successful, creative woman that I normally am - during the majority of our time together.

That's a lot of stress to put on a young relationship.
But now we know that we can get through some really ugly stuff.
It took us breaking up to have the distance required to learn this.

So, as you know - we've been spending time together again.

But, once when it was Mr. Burns who just didn't know where our relationship was going - now it's me.
I used to know for sure that we were meant to be together - and I was frustrated that he was so confused.

Now, he knows what he wants and I'm the one confused.

We went out for dinner Saturday evening, and as we walked, our pinkies entwined like we used to on long walks or when hiking. (it's too hot and too much to hold hands when you're trying to exercise, so we would just link pinkies instead - to be connected.)
Suddenly I was uncomfortable. It seemed too intimate, considering the confusion between my head and my heart. I released his pinky.

We found a photo booth - I can never pass those up - and ducked inside for a silly photo-session. So overwhelmed with affection is he... he couldn't help but nuzzle on me. I was uncomfortable again.

I attribute this in part to the time I spent really working on disconnecting from him. I still think he's the right guy for me, but in the break-up - some vital cords were severed. They need to be reestablished before we can move forward.

Or, do I just not know whether this is right or not?

~

Mr. Burns surprised me with two thoughtful gifts for my birthday... one at the beginning of the week to kick things off - and another on Saturday to end the week-long celebration on a high note.

He loved the look on my face when I opened the iP0d Shuffle. It was extreme shock and surprise!
He helped me set up my i+une$ account.
The first thing we loaded on my Shuffle was the Rosary.

Finally, last night, I realized that I can't do this on my own. I need to get back to the Rosary and let the prayer lead me to the answers.

Happy Fathers' Day!

Happy Fathers Day!

Especially to my dad, whom I love so very, very much. He is just so special and I don't know what I would have done, and would do without him. When he married my mom, he not only married her, but me and my sister too. ]I am sure it was not easy raising us, and my other two sisters who came later. Raising four girls had to have many challenges, and he met them always. He is not only a great dad, but a great grandpa and a "great" great-grandpa!!! He has never been a "step" dad, he is my dad. Plain and Simple.

Thanks Dad, for everything! Words don't do enough justice to my feelings.

I love you!

Hey Gisele, I think I saw an ant crawl into your bra, you better take it off. Is that a rash? You

Dealing With a Pain

My boss called me a little bit ago. Yeah, around 9:00pm. Would you be worried?
He called to ask me to document the behavior of another employee. Yikes.

This will feel a little strange, considering I'm the newest hire. The person I'm documenting has been there for about 7 years.
I want to be careful and fair, because I tend to write these sort of incidents in a matter-of-fact, dispassionate, emotionless sort of way. Which seems to be the right thing to do - but usually comes across as harsh rather than the neutral message I intend.

Here's what happened. My job is to prepare the material for a weekly 'event'. Then it gets handed off to another part of the team. Typically, the same person sees it through to the final product - but today it was handed off to yet another person. This person is difficult at best. We'll call this person Bozo.

As Bozo completed the first phase of the project - it was time for me to weigh in with any changes or adjustments. Bozo told me that part of the material was changed. That the first part of the team made this change. This was a change that, with the resources at hand, I could not accommodate. I'm great at troubleshooting - but this one had the deck stacked against it.

The really strange part, is the first part of the team would NEVER make a change like this without checking with me first. This was very concerning.
Bozo says no... "They do this all the time."
No - they've never done this to me before. It doesn't make any sense.

Then I ask Bozo to show me the change in question - Bozo makes a veiled effort, but then stops and offers another explanation - in an effort to distract me - which is Bozo's preferred Modus Operandi. I ask again, and Bozo instead offers two suggestions to cover the material - both of which will not work. I never did get to see the problem in question.
I chose not to press the issue since I was dealing with Bozo after all.
I called my boss and explained part of the problem and asked for a suggestion. He couldn't help.
Finally, I determined a suitable fix and left for the day.

Forgot about it.
Until my boss called. He spoke with the first part of the team who confirmed that they did not make the change. This in turn confirmed that Bozo made the change. Why? Your guess is as good as mine.
Did Bozo make the change just to watch me struggle with an unsolvable problem for no reason? Is this something Bozo would then take pleasure in... watching me spin around trying solve the unsolvable?

Doesn't matter. My boss is ticked. Bozo pulls this stuff all the time. Especially on people like me, my job title, my gender. Mmmm hmmm.
My boss is totally on my side. Which is great. But it also makes me feel bad, because it's something that shouldn't be a big deal. Something I can handle - but shouldn't have to. I could have pushed Bozo to show me the change - (the change that wasn't really there after all you see) but I didn't because I felt pushing the issue on something of this level would be foolish, and just cause more trouble.

And that, my boss pointed out - is the rub. Shouldn't have to. It doesn't have to be this way and the only way we can make it stop is follow the bureaucracy, document it and maybe in 2-3 years we don't have to put up with Bozo any more. Furthermore, if I had been dealing the other person on the team - and asked to see this problematic change - boom - I would have seen it in two seconds flat. The fact of the matter, the problem Bozo was presenting wasn't there. Bozo was just causing trouble.

Sheesh. This is ridiculous!!
Any suggestions for me so that I don't come off sounding like the whiner in this situation?

sorry if this is boring - I just needed to get it off my chest before I write up the real thing. Thanks for letting me vent.

Heidi Montag showering herself off in a bikini

Had I known Heidi Montag was going to pose in her bikini in Costa Rica yesterday I probably would've laid off the bikini shots while posting about her lame as all hell Playboy shoot. But these are trials of my life. Sometimes I think the only people who have rougher than I do are kids in third world countries. Then again, they don't have to go to school, work or sit through Twilight to touch a

Just a Scrunchie

Remember that episode of Sex and the City where Carrie has just started dating Jack Burger? We see that she's just finished reading his newly published book - she's thrilled that he is a fantastic writer - she can love the man because she loves his work.

When he asks her what she thinks of it she gushes enthusiastically - then launches into a rant about the detail in the book that has his main character running all over Manhattan wearing a Scrunchie in her hair. How no self-respecting Manhattan-ite/Fashionista would be caught dead wearing a Scrunchie anywhere other than her bathroom, washing her face before bed!

As if he can go back and take that out of the book. Yikes. You know she's gone too far. The rant was supposed to be lighthearted and funny and instead it turns into a big - ugly deal.

I remember talking to a friend after seeing that episode for the first time - saying, "Wouldn't it be nice if you could erase those mountains made from molehills by simply saying... 'Hey, it's just a Scrunchie... never mind, it's nothing'."

I realized then that the sort of man who would be the right fit for me, would be the guy who understands when I'm just ranting and know that it's nothing. Just a rant. Dismiss it. Never mind.


I came across an ad the other day that had the word Scrunchie in it - and I was reminded of that little epiphany made years ago.

Then I realized, I found that guy. With whom I share that little pact.


When we first started dating, Mr. Burns he told me about some cartoon he saw that involved a misunderstanding between space aliens and some cows.
The dialogue was subtitled, because much of the conversation was in cow. You know, 'Moo'.

At the resolution of the saga, when all the misunderstandings but one were cleared up, the aliens asked for one more clarification.

"Oh, that was Phil's fault." one cow says to the aliens.
The scene reveals Phil the Cow (steer?) lifting his hand/hoof in an apologetic manner as he says, "Moo. Moo, moo."

Mr. Burns found this hilarious. "Moo. Moo, moo." meant, "Sorry. My bad." or "Yeah. Can we forget it?"

When we would get into little rants and rows he would stop and say, "Moo. Moo, moo."
We'd both crack up. It'd break the ice and we could get back to the business at hand.
Before long we were both doing it. We made up different inflections, a single moo. A drawn out moooo. Or a short, quick Moo. To make a point. It became our own language.

One night at a party, Mr. Burns was relating some story to some new friends. At the end of his story, he defaulted to shorthand and said, "Moo. Moo, moo."
Luckily, our new friends had been pulled into a different conversation and didn't notice. After I finished laughing I pulled close to him and whispered, "Honey. They don't speak Moo."

This was our shorthand. A silly way to communicate.
And just this week, I realized - that was a quality I wanted all along. Someone who knows when a Scrunchie is just a Scrunchie. A cigar is just a cigar.
Move on - don't sweat the small stuff.

Moo.

Mr. Burns and I have been spending time together again lately, and he often effuses about the Power of Moo.
Sure. Some people might see it as avoidance. He sees it as a representation of our ability to communicate. How we relate to one another.
We were always careful not to abuse the Moo. "No. This isn't a Moo. This is serious." then we get down to business. We understand what's worth spending time discussing - and what we shouldn't waste our time on.

It's just... you know... Moo.

Britney Spears would tour Australia for the first time

Fresh off her announcement that Britney Spears would tour Australia for the first time ever, Britney Spears on Wednesday revealed that Britney Spears will also come back to North America for anbritney-spears extension of her “The Circus” tour.

Britney Spears will play arenas in 20 cities, starting with an Aug. 20 show in Hamilton, Ontario, and ending on Sept. 27 in Las Vegas. In between, Spears and company will touch down in Atlanta, Chicago, New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Miami and Los Angeles, amid other stops.

Before Spears opened her “Circus” tour in March with a show in her native Louisiana, some had questioned whether Britney Spears was ready for the stress of hitting the road again. The 27-year-old singer is under the conservatorship of her father, Jamie Spears, following a high-profile meltdown in 2007 and early 2008 that included stints in psychiatric care, an ugly divorce, shaving her head and partying without panties.

But the comeback tour seems to be going all right for the pop diva Britney Spears, who is currently performing in Europe. Concert trade publication Pollstar says her elaborate revue is one of the hottest tickets in North America this year with ticket sales of $61 million. The show features 50 dancers, magicians, clowns and acrobats and a production bbritney-spears1udget of $50 million and it travels in 34 trucks, her Jive Records label said.

So with the November release of her chart-topping album “Circus” and with her song “Womanizer”scoring the singer her first No. 1 single in almost a decade, Spears seems to have proven that, if nothing else, Britney Spears can still sell albums and pack music venues.

Beauty queen Carrie Prejean Lost Crown of Miss California

Beauty queen Miss California Carrie Prejean, who ignited a furor at the Miss USA pageant by taking a stand against gay marriage, has been fired as Miss California for violating her contract, officials said on Wednesday.

Beauty queen Carrie Prejean, who nearly lost Carrie Prejean's Miss California crown last month following the same-sex marriage flap and revelations that Carrie Prejean had posed topless at age 17, failed to fulfill her duties, a pageant spokesman said.

"This was a decision based solely on contract violations including Ms. Prejean's unwillingness to make appearances on behalf of the Miss California USA organization," Keith Lewis, the pageant's executive director, said in a statement.

The pageant said owner Donald Trump, who had stood by Prejean, 22, despite the uproar over her same-sex marriage remarks and racy photos, backed her dismissal.

"I told Carrie she needed to get back to work and honor her contract with the Miss California USA organization and I gave her the opportunity to do so," Trump said in the statement.

"Unfortunately it just doesn't look like it's going to happen and I offered Keith my full support in making this decision," he said. "Carrie is a beautiful young woman and I wish her well as she pursues other interests."

Sammy Sighs

Howdy!

It has been raining for days and days it seems. Mom is tired of the rain because we can't go on walks, she can't go on bike rides and Brooklyn can't go swimming.

I don't like it all that much either. Everytime Sissy and I need to go out to do our business we get wet. Sissy is especially hating it and sometimes Mom or Dad has to go out and stand in the rain and make sure she does what she is supposed to. Of course, I do what I need to like the good doggie that I am. Sissy is just silly.

I hope the sun comes out soon!

Voting practices differ "American Idol" Other Popular Reality Competitions

Reality television shows are depending more than ever on viewer participation to guide the outcome of their competitions, asking audience members to vote on who stays in the jungle on “I’m a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!,” who should stick to a diet on “The Biggest Loser” and who keeps waltzing on “Dancing With the Stars.”

Those votes sometimes have more in common with Politburo polling, however, than with democratic elections. So when auditions for the next season of “American Idol” begin in Boston on Sunday, singers who dream of standing in the winner’s spotlight next spring will need more than just a set of well-trained vocal cords.

Their success will also depend on their ability to inspire legions of fans to devote hours to sending blocks of votes into the “American Idol” polls. But the growing role of block voting also threatens to disenfranchise the viewers who are some of the show’s most fervent fans. Just how big those block-voting efforts can get was demonstrated by Erika McMahan of Conway, Ark., who with two of her friends sent in 11,700 votes by text message on the final night of this year’
s “Idol.”

That such practices are having an outsize effect on “American Idol” results is the obvious conclusion presented by a strange anomaly that has grown over eight seasons of “American Idol.” Even as the show’s audience has declined in recent years, the number of votes being cast has risen sharply.

Just how many people are casting block votes — which seem to be at odds with the show’s own rules — is unclear. The Fox network and the “American Idol” producers refuse to reveal all but the barest details of its voting process. Since Kris Allen defeated Adam Lambert for the eighth “American Idol” crown last month, no one in a position to know has officially disclosed even the margin of victory.

The voting practices on “American Idol” differ from those on other popular reality competitions. “Dancing With the Stars,” the ABC series that is the second-most-watched show on television behind “Idol,” restricts its viewers to a limited number of votes each week, and viewer votes are combined with judges’ scores to determine the results.

“Britain’s Got Talent,” the series that generated worldwide fame for Susan Boyle this spring, reveals its final vote margins at the end of the season. That show’s producer, FremantleMedia, also produces “Idol.”

Viewer voting is undoubtedly the ingredient most responsible for the success of “American Idol,” because it creates a built-in audience for the contestants’ recordings.

A belief by viewers that their participation is meaningless if they don’t cast votes by the
hundreds or thousands could limit their interest in the show, said Susan Murray, an associate professor of media, culture and communication at New York University and the co-editor of “Reality TV: Remaking Television Culture.”

Miley Cyrus Comments "I just wanna live and learn"

Okay, Miley Cyrus tweeted it:

"My tweets were just on headline news- people twitter is NOT news! I just wanna live and learn"

Miley Cyrus, after news outlets took Miley Cyrus sad Twitter feed as confirmation of Miley Cyrus break-up with boyfriend Justin Gaston. Miley, if you don't want your tweets on the news, don't tweet. You know how the game works.

Sweet 16-year-old Miley Cyrus and her overage boyfriend Justin Gaston have split up, both Usmagazine.com and People.com are reporting. They broke up on Sunday, and Us attributes it at least in part to Cyrus' close working relationship with Nick Jonas, her ex-boyfriend.

Both tweeted their heartbreak without expressly confirming the split. "Tears are words the heart can't express," Cyrus blogged, while Gaston, a former "Nashville Star" contestant, writes, "How many tears are in* there? They've gotta run out soon right?" Dude, you're 21, not a teenager. Get a grip.

Cyrus is now in Savannah, filming a movie. Miley Cyrus new single with Jonas comes out on Friday.

Transitions

As you can tell, I have been lacking in the blog portion of my life. Lately I haven't felt like chronicling what I have been doing, for the reasons that I have been so happy and busy and living in the moment and recapping wasn't a priority. Now that I have a night to reflect on the past 2 weeks I feel like a big deep breath is necessary.

Work has been work and good. I like the job. I have a job interview Thursday though for another opportunity so we'll see. My best friend Kim (previous post) and I are heading to Florida in 2 weeks to see my newly pregnant best friend Bridget, who just got back from Kuwait. They are expecting and it is very exciting!

Also, I literally didn't goto the gym for 2 weeks (yes I know). Blame it on summer starting up, early mornings at the beach over gym, friends, work, what have you. I have gone the past 2 days and hope to get back in the swing of it. I'm the lowest weight I've been in a while, surprisingly. I think it's because of the business and eating pretty well.

I had my first salad from my garden this morning. It's growing (well most of it) and it was monumental.

I reconnected with one of my best guy friends last Friday and I'll only reveal that we have always been good friends, but it's funny what distance, growing up and that indefinable contentedness you get after being away from someone you care about for so long does to you. So there may be a glimmer of something there between us. Who knows...

I am very sure of everything present in my life right now, the future is never certain and the bottom line is I am genuinely happy.

Hope all is well, and sorry for the hiatus.... Life happened to me:-)

Domo Arigato Megan Fox

Japan is known for two things: perverted animated porn and fat dudes in diapers who shove each other and call it a sport. That's it... that is, until today. Now they are known as a place where Megan Fox once showed leg at a movie premier. They are also now known at the most kickass country ever. Megan wore regal purple and showed off her ridiculously awesome legs at the Transformers 2 premier.

BEST! MOVIE! EVER!

I'm a simple man of simple tastes, which is why I nearly needed to change my pants after learning of Piranha 3-D. Yes, that's right, a movie about evil piranha attacks, BUT IN 3-D! It's gonna be so bad that it magically transforms to best movie of the year. To add to the awesome, Kelly Brook and Riley Steele are in it, and judging by these pictures, they're not on screen to use their wits. If

Movies

We rented and watched a couple movies lately. Brooklyn picked out Beverly Hills Chihuahua, which was amusing. We watched Marley and Me, which I had already seen, but loved. I like movies where you both laugh and cry, don't you? I mean, the other day Terms of Endearment was on and I actually watched (while doing other things) AGAIN!


We also watched Seven Pounds with Will Smith. It was great, very moving. He just seems to be doing some really great work. Who woulda thunk it? (Remember his tv show--Fresh Prince of BelAir????) Anyway, I think he is doing some good stuff.

Last night we watched The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. I'm not so sure on this, but I was so tired after a long day of working with the data reports, I kept falling asleep. I may try to watch it later on when it comes out on TV, but it just didn't move me.

This rainy weather, along with re-runs on TV has made for movie watching in the evenings!

LC tossed out the first pitch the the Dodgers-Phillies game over the weekend. I didn't see it, but that's no surprise. Seriously, does anyone watch the Dodgers? I didn't even know they had fans. I bet Lauren was paid big money to put on those clothes... there's really no other reason. Still, I didn't hear any additional mocking of her since then (no more than normal), so I guess the pitch

A Cold Wet Day

Saturday it was pretty nice, but it is cool and damp (and rains off and on) again today. Yesterday, we got to be out and about riding bikes and having fun, which was good. Brooklyn and Grandpa went to the car show, too. Today has been too cold! Brooklyn said it was a good day for chili, so that is what I have in the pot. I made some cinnamon rolls as well. To pass some time, we attempted to again play the Wii with Brooklyn. I bowled a 191! Wow for me! Ha.

Here are some photos of our Wii Games!

Well, How About That?

I have been looking for a skirt - or skirts - for months now. Ever since thoughts of spring popped into my head around February.

And I mean, I looked everywhere! TJMaxx. Ross. As in, every TJ's and Ross in the city and surrounding suburbs. Koh!s. Nordstrom Rack. Neiman's Last Call. The G^p. Goodw!ll.

Everywhere I wouldn't have to pay full price and some places I might. Haven't found even one. Well to be fair... not one that wasn't completely out of my price range.

Yeah.

So 20 minutes in Target - I found 6 skirts to try on. Bought two of them. $9.99 and $14.99. How about that?! Target is so great - they always know what we want before the rest of the world catches on!

Angelina Jolie Top of the world's most powerful Celebrities

Angelina Jolie turn over Oprah. Despite banking an eye-popping $275 million last year,the queen of all media takes a backseat to actress/humanitarian Angelina Jolie on the Forbes Celebrity 100 list of the world's most powerful celebrities.

Angelina Jolie rules a top five that also includes Madonna No-3, Beyoncé No-4 and the only male in the bunch, golfer Tiger Woods No-5.

According to the magazine, Angelina Jolie notched the top spot after a year that saw Angelina Jolie's release hit films "Kung Fu Panda" and "Wanted", earn $27 million at the box office, cause quite a stir with the birth of Angelina Jolie's twins with Brad Pitt (who is no-9 on the list), continue Angelina Jolie's many philanthropic efforts and manage the non-stop tabloid coverage of Angelina Jolie's relationship with Pitt.

That buzz package beat Winfrey, who made a strong showing with earnings that again came in just under $300 million thanks to Angelina Jolie monthly magazine and a $55 million deal with XM satellite radio, despite slipping ratings for her daily gabfest.

Another view on the bike...

There are babies up at Laing Lake. I loved watching the little ducks and geese swim along after their mothers! So cute (or adorable, as Brooklyn says).

Since Sunday, it has been pretty rainy and cool out. So, not much bike riding has been going on. I did ride on Monday to exercise class, as I posted earlier.

We did get to go on a walk a couple evenings, and it turned out to be very pleasant out. It is just very cool and damp weather right now!

Megan Fox, role model: ‘Wonder Woman is a lame superhero’

According to the British tabloids, Megan Fox spent four hours getting ready for the MTV Awards on Sunday.

A Penny Saved

Never seems to go very far!

I met two of my guy friends for drinks last week. It was Paul's birthday and we got together to watch one of the Nuggets-Lakers games.
These guys treat their cell phones like appendages! Constantly checking, texting, tinkering.

At one point I pulled my phone out of my bag to see if there were any messages. Paul caught sight of it and said, "Whoa. That phone is old-school!"
I'm a little behind the curve on technology. I do need to upgrade my phone soon and plan to get a B!ackberry with a data plan. For now this 4.5 year old phone will do.
I've never understood the need to have the lastest and greatest at all times.

Then, in a conversation with someone new the other day (okay - it was a date) it came up that I don't have an iPod.
What? How do you not have an iPod?

Short answer, it's never been a priority.
Dig a little deeper and priority is the key word.

I told my date, "You know, I'm the sort of person who is always saving up for something that I never get to buy."
I don't know if anyone else has ever heard of this 'sort' of person.

I've been saving up for my dream sofa for almost 3 years now.
I spent $500 on my night guard instead. I figure it's more important that I have teeth when I'm 60 than that I have a gorgeous new couch right this minute.
4 years ago I splurged on a Digital SLR camera. Actually, that's one time I had the money saved and then it took me 9 months to commit to spending it!!!

I'm accustomed to any of my slush funds being repurposed for something I seriously don't want. Like tires. Or replacing the manifold gasket for the second time in 12 months. (That's a $400 procedure surrounding a $30 part - BTW) Replacing the pipes under my bathtub. ($1000) Or that incredibly sexy night guard.

An iPod? You know, they still play music on the radio for free right? So not a priority.

That new cell phone is next on my list... after I pay for the damage my leaking radiator did to my downstairs neighbor's ceiling.
And maybe one day... teeth whitening!!! Oh what a glorious day that will be!

First Peek at the Iris

You may remember last year our bike rides through the Iris Farm ?? They were so beautiful and we rode through there quite often. Brooklyn and I rode through on Sunday, and they are just starting to bloom. I can't wait until they are all in full bloom again!

Jennifer Hudson and David Otunga expecting Their first child Soon

The actress and singer who is engaged to lawyer turned wrestler David Otunga was joined by close friends and family for a baby shower in Chicago at the weekend, despite previously denying Jennifer Hudson was expecting her first child.

Actress Felicia Fields, a long time friend of the Dreamgirls star said: "It was a baby shower, a quiet gathering of friends and mostly family. They're really trying to keep it kind of quiet. It was a nice time that we had."

Although Felicia has refused to say when the baby is due, the Chicago Sun Times newspaper reports Jennifer Hudson has just two months left before Jennifer Hudson gives birth.

When asked if Jennifer had received blue or pink gifts, Felicia told the Chicago Tribune newspaper: "They don't know the gender. More yellow."

Rain, Rain & Other Random Thoughts

So, it is raining. It is not raining hard yet today, but it sure did rain last night. I had to go out and dump out some planters. It is cool out, so that means no swimming again today for Brooklyn and Bailey. So far, it's been 3 out of 3 days of no swimming. But, there'll be plenty of time, I am sure. Brooklyn is spending his days at Bailey's house while I am working, and Baileys' older brother is in charge! They had a great time yesterday! I won't have to work on Fridays most of the time, so that will give us extra time together as well!

I rode my bike to exercise class last night, and got home just in time before the rain really started. I got sprinkled on, and the thunder and lightning was going on, but I made it fine.

This weather makes me s-l-e-e-p-y. I got up to do a morning walk/run yesterday, so I think I was just tired anyway...ha.

I am busy busy at work with my end of year uploads and all that jazz, and it is taxing on my brain. On top of that, there are meetings going on in the training room (right outside of my door) so I have to close my door and escape at least SOME of the noise....and they are hot, so they have the air on. Well, I think it ALL blows in here. I shut my vent, but even then, I was so cold yesterday that I could barely type. So, I started up a little space heater. Sad, huh? Today I wore socks and shoes, so that should help. No sandals today.

Have a great day, I'm done rambling.....

Hurt Feelings?

I wish that I could take people's hurt away. I have a friend who has hurt feelings, maybe not because of something I did or didn't do, but because of something that was said about me. I feel badly that she doesn't realize what a wonderful person she is and how important she is to so many, many people. She is terrific in so countless ways. I admire her in more ways than she will ever know, she is smart and funny and always looks just right. I can talk to her about anything and she'll listen. She doesn't make me feel tacky or stupid. She lifts me up when I need it. She knows just the perfect thing to say. She is well respected by all the people she works with and knows, even across the state and other states. She is so special...I feel like a dud beside her, and yet, she never realizes that. But, it is the truth, and I just want her to know how much I love her.

If I were Hobbes, she'd be my Calvin. She knows who she is...so Hey, You...I love ya!
