What to do!?!?!

I don't think I can vote tonight because I'm being torn in 3 different directions!!!! I really can't decide who I think should go home....nor can I figure out what America will vote for! Here's how I saw it:

Danny (right)-- I am not a big Danny fan. I was not impressed with his first song, but thought he was OUTSTANDING when he did You are So Beautiful. I just can't believe that his wife passed away 4 weeks before the auditions, so I give him so much credit for going through with all this and probably is a nice distraction. I think he has a ton of fans and I think a lot of people are inspired by his story, so he could easily make it through. I think he has a broad appeal from old to young fans, male to female, etc.

Kris (Center)-- I have LOVED Kris from the beginning-- he is super cute, seems like a really nice modest guy, and I love his style of music. I thought he rocked both songs tonight! First he did Apologize at the piano and then did Heartless acoustic. My big concern is that both songs are more current and he may not have picked up votes from the older people watching the show. EEk- so maybe I need to vote for him!

Adam (Left)-- So Adam is BY FAR the most talented person this season and probably ever on idol that we've seen. Every song he can make his own style and he obviously just has a knack on how to be a rock star! I was glad Simon made a point at the end not to just praise him assuming he'll be in the finals and remind people to vote because that is how he gets through. I think it could be a shocker still where he doesn't make it because people assumed he would get through so they voted the hell out of Kris and Danny. I also think some older people may just think he is too over the top and not vote for him.

Can't wait for tomorrow night!!!!!! I think if I have to pick, I'd pick Danny to go home if I pick it solely off just the songs and not their personality and story.

Help!

How hilarious is this picture?! And it completely sums up how I've been feeling since I have not lost even a pound since I started my "diet." The problem was that I would try and eat healthy, but we had too much stuff going on where I'd eat completely unhealthy things or just pigout. Now that I'm super frustrated, I'll buckle down. I think the only thing that works for me is to write down every single thing I eat-- that way it really makes me think about it...otherwise I just pass through the kitchen and grab a handful of chips or whatever and don't really count that as anything...hee hee! And lately I've been just sitting at my desk during lunch, but I think using that time to go for a walk really does make a difference, so I'll start doing that while the weather is nice. All right-- gotta go chow some dinner now before AI starts!

Wedding bookings

So this week dustin and I split up some of the wedding "to do" tasks. I had done some investigation into party buses, but he called around to get all the pricing and availability. I think the one he picked seems pretty good! My requirements were basically that it had to be a bus over a limo so that way we could stand up and walk around in it and that it had to have the perimeter style seating, not front facing. So I'm thinking this is what will take the wedding party to the ceremony and then we'll use to drive around and get some pictures between the ceremony and reception. He's still checking into the shuttle for the guests...but we have a fun, interesting idea for that!

My task was to book the ceremony music. I found a trio that seemed to have a good selection of music and was reasonably priced and will also play for the cocktail hour during the reception. So I've given them all the info and just need to sign the contract.

And the only other big thing to get done in the next week or so is the officiant. I'll feel a little relief once these are all booked and finalized!

Trying not to barf

So, I just don't understand myself. Anyone who is really close to me knows I have this crazy obsession over scabs, zits, and peeling sunburned skin. I just can't leave them alone and am picking at them on myself or even worse-- will be bugging other people to mess with theirs! So most people probably read this now and think that is totally disgusting...and for some reason it all just intrigues me. However, ANYTHING else related to the body completely grosses me out and scares me. For instance, I refuse to get my wisdom teeth out because just panics me to think about it. So this week I went to the dermatologist and had 3 TINY moles removed, so nothing very major. All went okay and was real proud of myself for not freaking out or anything. Well, the issue comes in that I simply need to change the band-aid on them twice a day and put some polysporin on the band-aid before I slap it on...doesn't sound too bad. The first night I was home alone and nearly fainted while changing the band-aid on the first one and it wasn't even gross or anything! It was just the pure thought that they had cut this mole out of my skin. So I had to quickly get the band-aid on and get to the bed so I could lay down. Then waited until dustin got home to do the rest in case I really would end up fainting. So I kept thinking after the 2nd, 3rd, etc. time it would get easier....but every single time I started feeling so hot, thought I was going to throw up, and the color would just drain from my face! So it seriously is like a 20 minute procedure for me to swap out 3 band-aids because I get so queasy. CRAZY! So thank goodness there are people who actually want to be doctors because I don't see how anybody could do that stuff!

Cinco de Mayo!

So last night started out as just going to be a girls night to have dinner and get some margaritas for cinco de mayo. We had decided on el barrocho which is downtown. Well, we find out that afternoon that they've blocked off the street and are having a party there and all sorts of people we know are planning on going. So dustin was all excited then that he could go and hang out with some guys! They had a dj out there playing some great music and the weather was absolutely perfect! We just love living and working downtown cause really is like being in a small town-- everytime we go places in the city, we run into all sorts of people we know from work, the gym, our building etc.

Don't ask me why dustin and missy thought this would be a funny pose, but they did...and there wasn't much alcohol involved, so kinda scary! Hahaha!
