Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, my minion greeted me this morning with, "Are you so upset about Kevin?!?" But I hadn't actually watched the show yet! Oops. It's just as well, I guess, since Bravo didn't alert the DVR that the show was running over..... Anyway, I'm not that upset about Kevin.

Here's what I did like: they set up the challenge to succeed. They gave the designers a lot of money and plenty of time, both for sewing and with the models. So that was good.

Prom dress fashion report - real life reality.

Well, Victorya's dress would have been totally shunned by the girls I took prom dress shopping today, while both Chris and Sweetpea's would have had a look and a try on. Even Rami's, with a long skirt, would have at least gotten a consideration.

The first place we hit specialized in shiney, beaded, overdone and overpriced dresses. There wasn't a single dress that would not have needed alterations between the dresses my two girls tried and none of the other girls we saw in the shop. Crazy industry.

We then went to David's Bridal, but none of those dresses sparked any interest. The looks were more generic bridesmaid stuff.

Then we hit the mall and looked at a lot of places there. The girls favored bright colors with added details - more along the line of beading than lace. K-Bug heavily considered a pink dress that had a shear panel over the bust and up to the neck (more halter-ish than the thing on Victorya's thing). Then she tried on a black dress that a slight draping and an open back - and that was it. We bought it today.

We saw lots of short dresses mixed in with the long, but didn't see anyone try on the shorter ones. Lots of peek-a-boo holes and lots of embellishments. We also saw more shiny animal prints than anyone would expect.

I was very happy with what K-Bug chose, both in look and in price.

Thanks for the report from the field!

I'm re-watching the Hershey's ep, and I'm just so happy that Chris March got brought back. (I do still hope the offer Jack a spot next season.) He's so funny and awesome.

yes, I hope that they do as well, I thought that he was very talented. And I'm also really happy that Chris is back. He seems to have learned from his mistakes.

Did Phil say that walking on the jagged rocks "allegedly" reduces stress? Ha.

seriously, I thought there was no way my wish would come true, but it did! I'm so glad their bickering and Jen's sense of entitlement cost them a spot!

"We have trust issues." Mylar

Whoot! Best final three of TAR evah!!!!

So perfect that Nate and Jen go out screaming and bickering on a Taipei bus to nowhere. And that little after interview was sooo Dawson's Creek I couldn't stand it. Although, I guess it's good that they know that the relationship . . . she is dead.

I would really be incredibly happy with any of these three teams winning. BUT, I will do a little jig if Nick and Don somehow manage to come out on top. Don climbing up that ice wall. Dude! He is a frikkin stud.
