I rarely admit it, but because two people so kindly corrected me, I kind of have to let you all know that I am better informed now.
It wasn’t Alaina that does the impressions. It is Kady Malloy. Here is her you tube from last night.
The good news, now I am not at all bummed that Alaina is gone…maybe we will get one more good impression from this girl before she goes. 🙂
I was at the church last night for a visiting teaching conference and so I missed the results show.
Our Zion’s Army was a lot of fun! In TN, it seems that we have a hard time getting sisters out for stuff like this. The conference combined two wards and there were still only about 30 women there. The ones who didn’t attend really missed out. The food was great and so was the company. Our army training workshops were also a lot of fun!
I checked out the results this morning on american idol.com. I was pretty confident that my favorites weren’t going anywhere.
I am pleased with America’s choices, but I am a little sad about Alaina…I think she has potential…I hope she will start her own impressionist talent show in Vegas someday..her impressions are amazing, and supposedly her singing is too, but unforutnately, she was never able to pull it out.
If I were on the show, I would rather be booted now than later. I mean really, why prolong the misery if you have no chance of winning anyway? And, that, ladies and gentlemen, proves my competitive spirit.
Look at what Cally got for her birthday…We are all so jealous!
Really, Cally, you should have let Lori get one first, she was the one to tell us about lisa leonard. But, I guess you can’t control the best sister ever. Can you ask her to share her love language with us on our next birthdays? (LG, I know you are reading…FYI…I just read this page and I think I would love any love language you want to give:) I’m not picky, I’ll take whatever it is you want to give….a gift of value, a date, a massage, words of affirmation, whatever, you are so good at all of them)
Speaking of lisaleanord, check out her latest post about her son…so sweet!
My sister sent me this link. You can type in your address and find out exactly how close convicted sex offenders live from your home.
I really wish I wouldn’t have looked at this, but I am glad to be informed that I have one directly behind my back fence!!! Scary! I guess the kids will not be playing outside without me this summer! It’s lookin like it’s time to move. But, with how many squares were on this map in the whole city of Knoxville, it is looking like it may be time to buy a gun and move out to the country.
Man, Shannon, I thank you for informing me, but I really am not going to be happy with my loss of sleep! Why do have to do that to me? You know how anxietal I am.
Here’s a more interesting version of Brooke White’s Beauty shool drop-out story.
Not so molly Mormonish! and much more entertaining.
I really think that it is going to be between her and David Archuleta at the end…we shall see.
What, no channels? Here is what you missed!
So, I was nicely surprised…the Mormon nanny came back strong tonight. I loved her version of “You’re So Vain”. I love that song and her version was definitely up to par. I especially loved the attitude she showed in singing it directly to Simon.
This picture was from last week, when her performance left me hoping for me. (They haven’t posted from this week yet) I have to say that I am way happy that she is keeping with the LDS modesty standard. I am sure the pressure is high to strip off those clothes. She looks and sounds so great, hopefully she won’t succumb to our sleazy society.
LG loves her because she isn’t one of THOSE contestants that has to put her fingers up to tell you which number to call in. (That is so annoying)
And, tonight, we find out that she plays the guitar, too…the girl is way too talented. She sings, plays guitar and piano, and she can do hair. I really do love her voice.
Even, if she is a molly Mormon.
C’mon, how interesting is to have gone to beauty school? Can’t she find something more interesting to talk about? I know she says that she has always been a “good girl” but do they all have to be so boring….maybe she should join the blogging world and get some ideas for future interesting interview topics.
Kristen just barely saved her healthy blog from being banned!
You other slacker blog rollers beware. I am looking for someone to fill her spot on my “post or be banned” category!
This makes for my official english ed & et #5. I am surprised that the possibilities still seem endless.
Here is some interesting automobile vocabulary.
In England, the UK, or Britian (whatever you want to call it) they don’t have gps‘s, they have navsat’s. (short for satellite navigation) – I just tried to link navsat to Mike’s post, but he has disappeared! (what’s up with that Saxon?)
Here are the words Mike commented to me before he dissapeared from the net: (Mike, please come back)
trunk = boot
hood = bonnet
windshield=windscreen
gas = petrol
transmission = gear box
A garage has three meanings: 1- the part of your house for the car, 2- the place you go to have your car fixed (we use that term sometimes) and 3- the gas station…go figure for that one. I have no idea why they don’t call it a petrol station.
They call a four lane highway, a dual carriageway.
Their MOT’s are what we would call our car’s yearly safety inspection.
And, if you ever get sick of the traffic in your United State town, just start reading Saxon on a regular basis and you will get to read his repeated English traffic frustration!
WOW, someday I am going to need to take a vacation overseas so that I can use all of my new vocabulary, or maybe we should all start a revolution, and start using all of these words, all of the time in the United States. I think this will make us sound so much more sophisticated.
