May as well bring Sanjaya back

Yet again I have completely lost all interest in American Idol right before the final week. Like last year when Chris Daughtry was kicked to curb and settled for fourth, Melinda will have to live with being third. You know though, it is almost better to not win anymore, I mean look at Taylor Hicks, he is sure burning up the charts.

I will buy Melinda's album when it comes out because she can sing and she like Chris will be all the better for not having to fit the Idol mold.

So, will it be Blake or Jordin? AE, like every other nine year old in America, is completely thrilled with the showdown. She L-O-V-E-S Jordin and we will more than likely be voting over and over again for the teenager.

We Schmidts will watch the finale, but my friend Luci, my aunt Shirley and I, along with all the other people in America who appreciate good music, will know deep down the best singer won't be the winner - again.

I LOVE Melinda!!! I was so bummed last night when she got the boot. Even LA was disappointed (so I popped Tina Turner's "Nutbush City Limits" in the CD player and we danced our sorrows away). Think I might actually skip watching next week. Poo.

Gainfully employed

I heard back last night from Cargill , I start back into the world of the gainfully employed as an independent contractor on October 8 th . My old client, who will now be my new client, Jeff wrote: I'm thrilled we get to work together again. This is the most important project our business unit has taken on in a lot of years so I feel a lot better knowing you're going to be part of it. OK now I'm nervous. Eeek - the most important project? Whoa, better bring the A game, but you know I am excited - scared - but am ready to go. I have so much to do before the 8 th , gotta get the list together to make the most of my kid free week (now that litte man is at daycare in the a.m.). Let's see: 1) Paint basement. 2) Purge house of clutter - how can we accumulate this much crap? 3) Goodwill and library drop off - Maple Grove Library is taking donations until Oct. 6 th !!! 4) Get the yard ready for winter - should I plant more bulbs? 5) Put basement back together - IKEA run ma...

Z is like for Zodiac

Shelly and I went to the movie Zodiac last night. The theater was nearly packed with mostly men and couples, so it was a bit obvious when two teenage girls talking on cell phones walked into the movie 20 minutes late. Shelly turned to me, "Why would you even come to a movie like this if you are 20 minutes late?" I agreed especially since they had already missed the first victims meeting their demise and the opening which told the viewer this was a true story. You just had to know they were going to be lost the rest of the movie, plus the only reason they were probably there was to see Jake Gyllenhaal . The movie was very good, one of the best I have seen since The Departed , I read the book and the prime suspect was much creepier on the screen than I imagined in real life. At the end of the movie, Shelly stopped by the ladies room and I waited outside. The two teenage girls we saw walk in late also went to the ladies room with cell phones glued to their ears already. At our...
