I'm so sorry, but if it makes you feel any better, my fun-time-Buffy party night involved watching a robot throw Spike through a window, so if you want to trade... no wait, I wouldn't give up that memory for anything.

Thanks, Liese!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

RoboCat was hiLARious! I saw that episode right after I got out of the hospital, and I had to clamp a pillow over my stomach to protect it because I was laughing so hard.

Note to self: religion freaky.

From the Google News roundup:

Christian 'Idol' Contenders Move Past Sanjaya
Christian Post - 4 hours ago
NEW YORK - The odds of a Christian singer winning this season of American Idol have increased yet again as every one of the faith-backed contestants survived this week’s cut on Wednesday.

Is it wrong that my reaction to this was to wish that kid was still on there?

Thrive to spite them

I thought the only obviously faith backed contestant was Chris Sligh, who was booted after butchering The Police.

I guess they are refering to LaKeisha and maybe Jordin?

Okay.

I don't pay attention to anything the contestants say. I maybe watch them with the guest coach, watch them sign, listen to Randy, ignore Paula, listen to Simon, and then change the channel back to whatever else I was watching (right now Stanley Cup play offs).

And on results night I watch the last 5 minutes to see who was eliminated rather than going through all the "Randy/Simon/Paula said and.....you were.....we'll find out.....after this commerical break..." stuff.

What is even happening?

Ben felt badly for Sanjaya. Julia mocked Sanjaya as he cried. Meanwhile, Christopher was obsessing about the order of ingredients for a Crabby Patty.

Julia mocked Sanjaya as he cried.

Ben was hollering at her (well, using big brother voice) to stop it, so I finally had to go in and explain it isn't nice to mock other people's pain. She managed not to roll her eyes at me (on the outside, at least).

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Shear Genius: Okay, I just watched the rerun. O, the drama! "You have every reason to cry." Hee. I feel like Daisy got criticized on both sides, for talking to her client too long, and for not communicating enough. Appreciate that she should have just said, "No. I can't do it." But it sounds like her client wasn't going to take no for an answer.

Anyway, loved Tabitha's style; it both looked like the inspiration photo, and was perfectly crafted to suit the client's face. And she got credit for taking on a difficult cut.

I was fine with Jim going, he was a mess.
