…13 year old girls with babysitting money and cell phones.
I wish I could take credit for that quote as I think it’s pure genius, but I can’t. It was said by Frank Martin on Twitter tonight. (Are you twittering? You should be.)
It was not his time to go. It wasn’t. I never saw him going all the way, but I saw him going a little further than he did.
I’m bummed.
Really, really bummed.
I guess now I’ll pull for David Cook.
And while I’m on the American Idol soapbox… I watched bits and pieces of last night’s show today. I won’t get into the whole Jesus is now a shepard in the song at the end (which, I will say that I thought it was great that they sang it regardless of that change because MILLIONS got a piece of the Word last night) but WHAT WAS UP WITH MILEY CYRUS??????????????????????????
The whole time I was watching her “when can I see you again” I was thinking “where is the Miley that *I* know?” you know, because I know her oh so well.
She was too, I can’t think of the word…. too… grown up? maybe?
The gestures, the moves, etc… I just didn’t find that appropriate for the fan base that she has. And I was shocked, really. I don’t think that I’m being too harsh, as I’ve conferred with others.
I was dissappointed.
In other news, today I treated myself to a manicure, pedicure and eyebrow wax. All three were long overdue, and I swear, after the wax, I think if I would’ve stepped on the scale I would’ve been two pounds lighter.
And the whole makeup thing?
Somehow I went from a little bag with four items (lip gloss, mascara, eye liner, and one eyeshadow which i never wore) to this box with lots and lots of stuff in it.
I bought a new mascara that was recommended on Chic Critique (I heart this site….) and I LOVE it… and an eye lash curler. I was curious. I really think those should come with instructions better than they were… like a video or a pamphlet to show you how to use it.
Or maybe, just maybe, I should leave well enough alone. Not sure how I feel about it, or if my lashed really NEED curling. But it’s now tucked in my little box with the rest of my stuff.
And I think I’ve found some color combinations that I like.
I could go on and on about other aspects of my life that need a comment here or comment there, but I’ll spare you…
at least for tonight.
I’m going to curl up in my bed (there’s a post in and of itself) and call it a day.
Until next time…

Confession…I have only seen a portion of American Idol once or, maybe, twice in my entire life. I am out of touch with that part of our culture.
OK. I said it. So I cannot comment on your feelings about the song or the singer.
BUT I do have an eyelash curler! *grin* My kids still look at me strangely when I have that thing over my eye. LOL
As for finding me a speaking engagement near you, you go girl. I would love that! *grin*

Yeah, I missed AI, but I’m catching up by reading everyone’s blogs!
I am totally into wearing make up, yet I still DO NOT use an eyelash curler. I just don’t see the point. (Plus I always hurt myself!) So don’t pull out too many eye lashes before you throw in the towell!
