It was hotter then Cathy Johnson in a string bikini!

Holy mother of all knowing it was hot today. 96 degrees here in the Boilermaker state, and on race day at that. Supposedly the 4th hottest indy 500 ever, and not just because of Danica Patrick. Any of you race fans? I am not a race fan, don't really care about it. To me a car race is just another excuse for hilljacks to unite and invade our fine state. I don't chew, own overalls, or want to marry my sister so I don't fit into the racing demographic. Infact I hate living in Indiana this month because of the dumb race, that's all you hear about from May 1st on it's stupid. I will say Danica Patrick is cool though, too bad she can't win. I can't even imagine living in Speedway during this month, did you know Nuttina used to live in Speedway.

So, I entered a suicide pool, not what you think calm down nobody needs to talk me off the ledge. No, I entered a suicide pool for the French Open. This is how it works. You pick a player each day of the tournament, not round but day, and the first time you pick a player who loses you're out. Here is the kicker you can only pick a player once, so obviously early on you don't want to pick the favorites IE Federer, Nadal, Henin. So, I picked Bartoli on the womens side, and Moya on the mens side and both won so I am still alive woohoo! The french open is cool but it's probably my least favorite of the majors. I, of course like Wimbledon and the US Open the best. Here is a rundown of what I see happening at the French this year, if you don't like sports scroll down.

Semi's MEN
Roger Federer over David Nalbandian
Rafael Nadal over Thomas Johansson
Final
Nadal over Federer (he owns him on clay)

Womens Semi's
Amelie Mauresmo over Svetlana Kuznetsova
Justine Henin-Hardenne over Martina Hingis
Final Henin over Mauresmo

Don't bet on these horses to win or place

Andy Roddick will crash and burn as always on the clay
Maria Sharapova barely won today, won't go much further.

Alright done with sports. Any of you fans of the show Big Brother? Those of you who read this last year know that both Nuttina and I are fans of this great reality show, I still hate the nerd herd btw. Anyway the big news is this season is going to be an All Star season!! The bigger news, we, the american public, get to pick the final contestants!! I can't wait, I am hoping Janelle, Kaysar, Dr Will, Marcellas are all up for it. I love this show and it makes summer tv great! Also watching so you think you can dance. Anyone watch it the other night and see the dude bite it doing a flip? That was hilarious. Speaking of dancing, I hear that Steph, from the links is the queen of Dance Dance Revolution!! Shake your tailfeathers steph, come on and bounce wit me! hahahaa

Thanks for all the well wishes for the Blogiversary it was much appreciated. Nuttina's will be coming up shortly, she started blogging after me. You know what else is coming up shortly, my birthday, just a reminder


JUNE 5th

8 more shopping days kids.

Have a great week!

HAPPY BLOGIVERSARY!

Happy Blogiversary To well ME!
So, after I stupidly deleted all of my archives one night adding a video(thanks tina for helping me get them back) I thought it's close to the 1 yr anniversary of this blog. After, I got them back I was reading back thru the first entries and found the first one to be May 27th 2005. So, that makes today my Anniversary. Wow, blogging for a whole year crazy. It's funny when I started this blog I gave the link to Nutty, and my friend Jenn and never thought anyone else would read it, now 1 yr later all you cool cats read, comment, and are linked which is AWESOME! Design Goddess popped my blog cherry she was the first to comment, she should get a prize, too bad I don't have one. So, in honor of the 1 yr event I am reposting my first ever post, enjoy :) By the way, subtle hint my birthday is

JUNE 5th

WELCOME ABOARD
Alright I guess it's time I get with the times and start using a blog just like everyone else is doing. I already keep a written journal but why the hell not keep an online one too? Although at times my thoughts might get confused and you might need morse code to dechiper this thing, so stay with me. It's like a week from 28th birthday and to me this thought is a depressing one, I just keep getting older and older if anyone has a recipe to stay the same age forever give me a shout out. My family wants to know what I want to do for my birthday, how quaint right? I said absolutely positively nothing! Although they were being nice I am not sure celebrating is something I really want to do bleh. I will probably crack and we'll all go out to dinner joyous times I tell you!

Fun times are ahead though, my friend Jenn, who I will probably reference a thousand different times for no matter how long I keep this thing, and I are going to Six Flags! Still not sure if it's going to be a trip for 4 or 2, I am hoping Autumn will go, then Jenn will take her friend big dix aka collin. Autumn by the way is someone I have recently come back into contact with, and well I am hoping it's fates way of pushing. Although I am starting to get a little nervous considering she hasn't called me in like 2 weeks, and I feel if I keep calling her I will look like the pathetic dingus I am. Who knows, doesn't love bite?!

Well, I have done nothing but sit on my ass today, and I feel like I should really start doing something but being a bump on a log. This is not the greatest entry ever, but hopefully they will get better.

Have a great weekend

Paula Abdul Sucks!

Alright kids American Idol just ended, and I am getting ready to vote like mad for my girl Kat. So here is a rundown of the happs. Taylor won the coin toss and elected to go second, so Kat was up first and sang Black horse and the cherry tree. I love watching her do this song it's fun! The judges were okeh with it but not blown away. Simon, I think said it best that it was just a warm up. Next comes Mr Spaz himself Taylor, and to be honest and sorry I can't even remember the song he sang, but the judges all loved it and Simon claimed him the winner of rd 1, Phats ageed. Song number two was Kat doing Somewhere over the rainbow. I was very nervous only because of how awesome she was last time, WOW she was even better. This is considered a HOME RUN! The judges ALL loved her, Simon said it was even better this time. Then we have SpazMan it was the song he sang in one of the rounds that proved Simon wrong. Randy said it was pitchy, Paul OF COURSE disagreed, and then Simon proclaimed Kat winner of rd 2 leaving us deadlocked and Phats agreed. Then we get to their singles, and I was very worried because I didn't think Kat sounded good, and her song was dumb. All the judges agreed it was just "alright" Simon told Kat fans to remember her brillance from the second song. Then we have Mr. AARP sing his original, I didn't like that song either but he did alright, to which Simon proclaimed him the winner of American Idol, which set the retard off with his WOOO's. Finally the show ended with Daniel Powter singing "bad day" and the video clips behind him, great way to end it because I love that song! What irritates me is, and it's been this way for the last 4 seasons Paula is blatantly bias towards the men. She never likes the women contestants that are good, and you could so see that again tonight it's getting old! I wish they'd fire her. Maybe she is jealous that these lovely ladies are more talented then she ever was?? I mean she danced with an animated cat for pete's sake.

My take I believe Taylor will win :( Unfortunately for him though I don't think he'll sell the most records of his season. His voice is not what the fans like most about him, they like his spaz dancing, that won't translate to a CD. Chris and Paris are my bets to be most successful from this season. Chris even though I didn't like his screaming, has an offer already boring, and Paris give her a couple of years she'll be a star. Speaking of, all the idol 12 were in the audience, saw my original favorite Paris shaking it to one of Taylor's songs. I can't wait for tomorrow it will be a fun show, surely all of them will do some big group medly, and I heard Carrie Underwood will be there. Speaking of, I happened to flip to the CMA's as soon as daniel powter finished, and she was singing "jesus takes the wheel" then BOOM she wins the next award for song of the year, WAY TO GO CARRIE!!

Some other tv news, I got my tv guide haha. All you Grey's Anatomy fans it's switching nights in the fall. It will now be on Thursday at 9pm. Also another interesting thing I read, after saying it was over for good and having a series finale, 7th heaven got picked up for one more season. Odd right? TV Guide blasted lost, pretty much saying it has jumped the shark. Any of you non idol fans out there watch Stephen King's Desperation tonight? I am taping it, let me tell you I read that book and it scared the living shit out of me! I was reading that one summer when I was home from college, and working late nights then driving home freaked me out after reading that book. I can't wait to watch it. Beading you should read this one too!

I hope everyone enjoyed Idol, and pay no attention to the hippo, he doesn't own jackcrap!

What to say..... What to say

Hi Everybody, all together now HI DR. NICK!
I am running out of things to blog about, I don't really have anything exciting to talk about right now. So, if anyone has any suggestions you can surely pass them along and I will blog about them, I promise I will! Hmm it finally stopped raining here woohoo! It's really nice outside today, sunny and 72, summer just finally might be here my friends. I love summer it's always been my favorite season. I love the extreme heat especially for playing tennis. What an excellent work out running, using all your muscles, and sweating off the pounds. Just make sure you drink plenty of fluids if you try this :)

Well, our season ended in a 5-0 loss to the sectional favorites. I was pleased with the girls seeing as how the school that beat us has 2000+ kids and we have 300+ kids. They competed really well and I was proud of them. We had two points just get dusted off the court at 1 singles and 2 doubles, but the other three points gave a good fight. Our doubles team we moved from 2, to 1 lost 1-6, 4-6. They led every changeover in set 2, when they switched up 4-3 they lost three straight games. 2 of the girls cried, I hate that I can't deal with girls crying it freaks me out. Now we have our end of the year party June 2nd, nobody crash it! The awards night is May 30th, then tennis season will officially be over for the girls. By the way the team that beat us went on to win sectionals winning their semi final 5-0, and beating 17-2 team in the finals 3-2. So, now that season is over I have some free time, anyone wanna play some tennis? Jay, Phoenix? We get one more that'd be a great doubles match! Speaking of tennis Martina Hingis today rallied from a 0-6 first set to defeat Venus Williams 6-3, 6-3 woohoo GO SWISS MISS!

I was talking to my friend Jenn last night, you guys know her, the asshat for a boyfriend girl. Anywho, I was telling her I don't know what to blog about and she told me to blog about her so I am. For starters, we are planning a summer road trip, for Her, Nuttina, and I. It's all planned but I haven't told Nuttina the details yet so I am not gonna tell you all! I think Nuttina is going to be very excited when I tell her. Umm what else, yes she has switched jobs again, and moved from Schererville to Bloomington. She LOVES the location much better I believe, and now she works the midnight shift. Oh yes she gave me this riddle to try and figure out too, she said "what is the last thing I did before leaving schererville, and the first thing I did when I got to bloomington." Me being me said Jenn my blog is PG! She said not that and that her mom was with her, and I said OH MY GOD!! I am such a guttermind. After about 5 guesses, she told me the police was involved, BINGO she got into a wreck TWICE! The first time in her Uhaul, the second her car attached to her Uhaul. It reminded me of the time we were cruising down Dixon in the lovely Indiana winter weather and hit ice, literally spun out into a ditch. What was our reaction to be scared, or nervous oh no we laughed our assed off! Which was so bad, because after someone finally got us back on the road we had to pass the whole slew of traffic we were holding up and we were laughing hysterically! By the way she was driving! I love my friend Jenn, I am glad we're friends :)

Lets see my big summer news, I thought about giving 1 hint every two weeks, but I think i'll pass would rather keep everyone in suspense. You might be able to bribe Nuttina with cash? I have a birthday coming up, June 5th. You all know it so I expect a ton of presents! I do accept checks from out of state. I can't believe I am turning another year older I am getting close to the big 3-0 ugh! Umm some of you know I have been sick with a cold this last week, and it's really fun to feed tennis balls at practice when you feel like shit! I think I am starting to lick it though woohoo! I changed the music on the blog to my favorite group Rascal Flatts, and I know design goddess especially enjoys this song "praying for daylight"

Alright kids this was really not that exciting but I think that's all I got. Oh yeah!! Watch American Idol Tuesday night it's the finale Kat vs Taylor. Vote for Kat please she is the best! I have Kat Scratch McFever baby! Oh oh speaking of TV anyone watch the OC finale? I missed it but heard Marissa was killed, this true?

Have a great rest of the weekend

Holy Cow!

Alright who watched grey's anatomy's 2 day three hour finale? Show of hands please? So so so good! I watched Sunday, was literally on the edge of my seat and when Burke got shot I said outloud OH MY GOD! I figured when they said earlier in the episode that the shooter was loose he'd make an appearance, had no idea that was coming. Then there is miss Izzie wtf was she thinking! I think she finally crossed the moral line. Alright, so I couldn't wait til tonight to see how it all played out, I mean seriously it could have ended last night and been a cliffhanger, and you know there is going to be a cliffhanger right? Tonight was a little slow at times, but it ended with a powerful punch for sure! First let me say I feel like a total jackass, because I had just said to someone I wanted Denny(the heart patient) to die, and then after a successful heart transplant, and his proposal to Izzie he kicks the can! Man I felt like an ass. Then there is Meredith sexing up Derek again, wtf, he called you a whore and chose his wife, messed up! Go back to Izzie who won't leave the dead Denny corpse, well at least til who of all people helps her but Alex. Wasn't it nice to see Alex's gentleman side? I've always liked Alex, especially when he dated Izzie. Lets not forgot Burke in all this, and Christina's freak out woah! Of course though it's called Grey's Anatomy and it had to end with Dr Grey. Talk about coming full circle, it ends with both Derek(mcjackass) and Finn(the vet) asking her to come with him, hmm who will she choose? Of course this is how it ends this season. Anyone wanna take bets on who she chooses? I certainly hope she selects Mister vet, because he didn't treat her like crap, but who knows how many more episodes he has signed on for, so it will probably be Derek, excuse me while I gag. Nuttina, did you make it thru the whole two hours tonight?

It has been cold and rainy here lately, like raining non stop since last Wednesday. I was starting to think I was going to need a rowboat just to get my mail. We did manage to squeeze our tennis match in tonight, which is a good thing seeing is how it's a conference match and it HAS to be played. It was our last regular season match of the year, and we won 3-2!! YAY!! We won at 1 singles, 2 singles, and 2 doubles. It was a great win for our 2 girl she lost to this girl at the tipton invite and was able to turn things around tonight so proud of her. Our 2 doubs team ended the season undefeated together, which is awesome at 11-0. They didn't play very well tonight but won 6-7(3-7), 7-5, 6-1. I was very happy for them, they have worked really hard this season. Tonight was also the sectional draw for our postseason. My assistant coach went to that, and he calls me on our way home from the match to thank me for sending him into the Lion's Den. Evidently 2 of the coaches there accused us of stacking our lineup, making our 2 doubs stronger then our 1. For starters people we are 5-9! If I am going to stack, I will do it so we get more wins. However, my assistant agreed to flip flop them, WHAT! So, anyway they draw, and of course we draw the sectional favorite, and after he tells me that the flip flop doesn't mean much seeing as how we're gonna lose 5-0 either way. I know that's negative but true ha. So, the season will probably be over Thursday night.

I don't really have much else to say but Grey's was soo good I had to write about it. Oh yes, I almost forgot. TGP, you rock big comet, and sorry new girl but nobody hit your buzzer!

Have a great rest of the week

PS for all you chris fans, how do you feel about all his whining, bitching, and complaining since getting cut. Even Seacrest was making fun of this on E News!

An Idol Shocker!

Alright I admit it I was literally jumping up and down and yelling for joy when Chris was voted off, I loved every minute of it! I was a fan of his early on, but the more I heard him scream the more I didn't like him, and I am glad he is gone. Katharine is awesome she is my new favorite and I think my votes saved her! I didn't vote for her at all last week. I thought for sure Taylor was going after they asked him to sing "Jailhouse Rock" wtf was that all about, I thought Ryan was going to say Taylor thanks and the show ends for you tonight. Boy was I wrong, he and snaggletooth were the top two. Snaggletooth was good last night, I just can't watch him sing. Taylor has grown on me, from not liking him at all in the beginning, to tolerating him, to enjoying watching him perform. I agree with Simon he needs to just sing, enough dancing! He looks like he is having a seizure when dancing anyway. Kat wasn't great last night but she is still talented and I am so happy she made it thru!! I loved the look on Chris' face that was priceless, he also looked PISSED off during his goodbye clips. I hope nobody put money on him, he was the favorite according to Vegas Odds. Sorry Tina! Lets be honest here too, the show was not quite fair to Kat, singing Elvis with three guys left and one girl uhh yeah okeh.

I feel like I am living in Seattle, since it has been raining nonstop since 2:00! Spring Sports Season this always happens, we had made it all year without canceling a match, and we made it tonight thanks to me. We moved our match inside to the tennis center and of course we lost again. I hate losing! Although my #2 doubles team is still undefeated so good for them as they won 3-6, 6-2,7-5. We went ahead and played this one inside because it's a match we HAVE to make up because it's a conference match. We have 2 matches left both conference matches, tomorrow and Monday and they are calling for rain til like Wed. It's crazy, then our postseason starts as sectionals get underway next Thurs, Friday, and Sat. I hate to be negative but we have no shot in hell to win. I lost it at practice the other day, because these girls just lack the dedication. I had girls ask to leave practice early for these reasons; Homework, Spa treatment, Mother/daughter tea, to eat dinner. One mom was pissed off I wouldn't let her daughter leave for dinner, and I finally just said TAKE HER! I am sick of it, if I coach next year things will change, trust me! I played tonight as well, with Cody, Kacee, and Nikki it was fun, but boy my feet are sore. I love to play tennis, I just love competing love it! I had one summer where nikki and I played with our friends Tricia and Jason for 7 hrs NON STOP!! Not to mention it was 90 degrees out. That might be the only time in my life I have ever been burnt out on tennis.

I wasn't planning on blogging tonight but after the idol shocker, and seeing Steph's comment I thought I better. I don't want Steph to hunt me down and want to throw down! ha. I am going to the HS spring choral concert this weekend, and I have nobody to go with, I have asked like 10 people. I am such a pathetic loser, anyone wanna go?? I'll buy you dinner! I am getting my haircut tomorrow, and I have to tell you if I knew what I would look like bald, I might consider that option. However, I will probably just go for the buzz cut. Sorry Nuttina I couldn't wait until next week to hear how the reunion went :).

Last time I updated I changed the video, and I accidentally deleted my archives, OOPS! Thanks Tina for helping me get them back on here haha. So anyway I was reading some of the old entries, sorry they were really boring, and realized the one year anniversary of this blog is coming up in like 2 weeks! So, what should Nuttina and I do to celebrate? I know some people have republished their very first entry, maybe i'll go that way?

I promise I am getting around to adding some of you as new links, I am just lazy. I don't feel like doing it tonight but will add ya soon people I promise! Oh yeah one more thing Congrats to Beading, her son got married this past weekend, awesome!! I have some really funky tan lines right now. I know you all wanted to know that, my feet are PURE white and ankle all brown HA! Nothing beats a great watch line though. Which I have, I look like a brown and white oreo.

Have a great rest of the week.

Just Unbelieveable... Mike H you better read to the very end

Alright so I have a lot to cover tonight, several different topics. I'll start with the one that pissed me off! Something happened the other night and I just have to write about it, so you all have to suffer with me hahaha :) I feel better tonight, and I wanted to give it one day before blogging about it.

So, the other night I get in and decided to get on Aol Instant Messenger for like 15 mins or so before going to bed, and I am like ready to sign off and I get a weird IM. I know this person knows me because they say "hi insert real name here" not many people know my real name so I knew they knew me. I had NO clue who the hell this person was and I was tired but if it was a good friend or what not I didn't want to blow them off. So, being the nice friendly person I am, I stayed up and talked to them. Not long into the coversation I turned into a not so nice friendly person. This person started lighting me up big time, droping F you this, and F you that. Then I realized who it was. Alright, so there is some back history that I have to give you for this story to make sense, sorry. Some of you already know it so you can skip down a few lines. Last summer, close to this time of the year I met a girl named KJ and we immediately hit it off, but I found out she had a boyfriend so like a good boy Phats was hands off. We still talked, and it seemed like the more we talked the more she bashed her boyfriend. I would try and sway the subject another direction and she would come back to him and bash him more and more. Well, the genius tells the dude she is talking to me almost every night and of course this doesn't go over well, and a week later they break up. So, she is a law student right and she hosted this big end of the year party and invited me, and I decided to go and luckily took a friend, and low and behold who shows up but her ex boyfriend talk about weird. Thank God he had no idea who I was Phats doesn't like confrontation. She basically blows me off all night to be with him, nevermind I drove 3 hrs to get there, so my friend and I left. The next day guess what they are back together! I mean I went off on this girl, I called her a hypocrite, cockaddict, bitch, you name it I called her it. So, she tells me they are going to North Carolina to see her family, and I said oh dandy and blocked her. Well, time passes and I unblock the bitch and she tells me they broke up in NC and came home separately, and then says you were right, I should have listened, uhh DING! So now back to the original story I chose not to get involved with her thanks to Design Goddess' advice, and blocked her. Well the other night the person that IM's me is her good friend Simon, who is friends with her and her ex. I am like why is this coming up a YEAR later. So, I let him go off on me, and when he finally finished I said, "are you done, please don't ever send me a msg again" and blocked him! I went to bed PISSED off! A year later and this mess is still coming up, so I unblocked her and said tell your dumbass friends to leave me the hell alone, and of course then I feel like an ass when she tells me her dog was just hit by a car and died. Oh nice one Phats! Will I ever learn?

Anyone watch Grey's Anatomy Sunday? WOW!! It was so freaking good, that show is slowly becoming my all time favorite. I owe a BIG thank you to Nuttina, she turned me onto the show and now I never miss it. So tonight was action packed, another patient dies, does it seem like all the patients end up dying? Heart patient boy who Izzie the Intern is dating collapses, am I the only one who thinks this is morally wrong? Dr Shepard(the male) is a complete jackass to Meredith. Umm Hello, Derek you chose your wife you have no right to tell her who she can and can't date or sleep with asshole! Also Meredith is dating the vet, played by Chris O'Donnell. I really like these two together they really fit well together, I hope they keep him around! Addison (female shepard) is actually growing on me, and every now and then we see Alex's tender side. My friend can't stand Dr Yang, says she is too much, and how funny was the part with the naked chick peeing and then not washing her hands!! Classic! Finally there is george, poor george he is a geek how does he get these women?? Come on in real life he'd have NO shot. I can't wait for the two part finale!! Going to be ohhh sooo good!

I got to play tennis tonight, with my normal mixed doubles partner, vs a dad and his 7th grade daughter who plays on my jr high team, but could play on my varsity. We won 6-4, 7-6(7-5) it was close! It was so beautiful outside I am glad I got to take advantage of the weather. Lets see I went out with Kristen, her friend Angie, and Angie's boyfriend Jon. We had so much fun, and it's cool because Jon and I are good friends as well. So the four of us do a lot of stuff together. I won some money too, entering a karaoke contest, I am thinking of going out for Idol next year HAHA JK!! I would drive the women of blog too damn crazy, IE Shannon, Spy, Tina, Beading, Star, and of course Seahag with my sex appeal hahahahhahaha :)

Finally, last and most important, guess what day it is?? That's right Mike H's BIRTHDAY!!! For those of you who don't know Mike H, he is on my links list. Ladies, I believe he is single, Mike H is a 25 yr old taurus, he likes playing hockey and working with kids, and says not to hold it against him that he lives in Canada. You can find Mike H at loweredexpectations.singles.com under PonyBoy in Maple Ridge BC, or you can just look for this picture.

In all seriousness, Nuttina and I would like to wish MIKE H a big HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! Make sure you stop by his blog and say Happy Birthday to him folks, he is a cool fella.
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday Mike H.
Happy Birthday to you!

Nuttina and I got you two tickets to the stanley cup finals, unfortunately Roxie ate them.

Have a great Monday. If anyone is interesting, music is "This Side" by Nickel Creek

Roxie's Corner


Hi everyone. It's me Roxie, Nuttina's pup. I got ahold of her computer and decided to blog a little bit.

So I'm growing and growing. Last Thursday I weighed in at 39.1 lbs!! My mom won't know what to do with me when I'm at 80 lbs! Speaking of last Thursday, my mommy dropped me off at the vet and before I knew it I was passed out and when I woke up, I had some incision on my belly. I slept a lot the next couple days. I have such a great mommy, she had to feed me by hand and give me water by hand!! Several times, she had to pick me up and carry me down the stairs so I can go potty! But I got over my tiredness fast and was bouncing off the walls on Saturday! What a great mom.

Tuesday during our obedience classes at Petsmart, I got to kiss Jake, a cute Golden Retriever mix...what a hottie. I also learned to come when called, stay and lay down. I enjoy these classes with my mommy, great bonding time.

Well time to take a nap!! I saw that Phats said Purdue football starts in 130 days...good b/c Mike won't be around as much. I love having my mommy to myself!!

Hmm I am not sure what to say

Alright someone on the comments(shannon) who will remain nameless(shannon) was sort of hinting(shannon) that I kind of needed to update(shannon) because prom was surely over(shannon) hmm I wonder who that could have been(shannon)! I do have to say be patient, I am running out of time to blog. Our tennis season is winding down and I seem to be incredibly busy, where does the time go anyway??

Lets see after a quick tour of blogland lately I see there is tons going on with all of you. I see that Design Goddess finished her tough project, and I must say a big CONGRATS to her, and I am very happy that her project is over and done with. Mr Shife stopped blogging and that still makes me sad, his was totally one of my favorite blogs, but I totally understand why we all get "blogged" down from time to time. I just hope he makes the rounds every now and then so we can still see he is alive. Shannon is moving, or has moved and that is exciting to see, Congrats Shannon. Spygal is back one minute gone the next, back the next minute and then gone again. I tell ya that girl can't make up her mind, well she is a woman. Uhh Starbender and I had an amazing time at the prom, some comets were rocked lets just say that and leave it there. Tina, is too sexy for her well nevermind that's an inside joke. Finally added someone to the dawgpound links, that being Ask Morris. Some of you might have been to his site, I love his brutal honesty so he is added :) You know I really miss Seahag, I hope she comes back SOON! I enjoy getting to know all of your thru your blogs keep up the good work! I have been doing this blog for almost a year now and only ran across one person that irritated me, which is amazing considering I get irritated easily! She was just too much drama! haha.

Like I said our tennis season is winding down FAST. We only have like 5 more matches left then sectionals it's hard to believe. I think the teams that phoenix coached were a lot better then mine haha :) Anyway Wednesday is our last home match, and it's Senior night. We are doing a big cookout for after the match, and the underclassmen and myself got the girls balloons, with carnations as well as a goodie bag to go with it. I also kept with my tradition of writing each Senior girl a letter, basically thanking them for the dedication and what not. I have a big group of Seniors this year, with 11, and 6 of them play varsity. Last year Senior night was very hard, I really enjoyed working with that group of kids, and really missed them this year when we started. I am not sure if that will be the case with this group, only time will tell. We haven't won many matches this year which is disappointed, but I finally settled on a line up YAY me! It's hard to compete with the best softball team in the state, so most girls want to play softball. They win state titles, we win well nothing, but we have fun doing it!

So, American Idol was on tonight and to tell you the truth I wasn't really impressed with anyone tonight including my girl Paris. Although, that didn't stop me from voting for her, as well as Chris 7x so I could keep my deal with Hippo. Lets see they sang two songs, and the first song was awful by 4/5 only Chris was good, then for the second set of songs, all of them improved and Chris got worse. I thought Chris was awful, and I know it's his genre to scream, but this is a SINGING competition, not a screaming competition. I had to turn my volume down. My favorite performance of the night was Katharine's second song, that was AWESOME loved it. I think the bottom two will be Elliot, and Paris. Unfortunately I think that it will be Paris' time to go. I don't like Elliot(sorry shannon) I think it's because he looks funny when he sings, maybe if he put a bag on his face he'd be better. Or possibly I am distracted by his elf ears, and snaggletooth?? who knows? I wouldn't mind seeing Taylor go either. He looked like he was having a seizure tonight, and sounded worse.

Alright just random ramblings here then I am done. The other day I was going home from the center and I couldn't get my favorite radio station WWKI to come in at all. I was like WTF is going on. I never did find out, until tonight. They had this like HUGE fire, and were off the air. They are finally back to being on 24/7 they are broadcasting out of trailers. They are said to be back up and in their studio by July! That's just crazy. Sorry, no hints to my big surprise summer secret, I am not even sure if and when it will materialize. I think it will though, actually pretty sure :) Nutty and I's 10 yr reunion is in two weeks, and I am such a bad person I didn't even send the RSVP back, but they knew I wasn't going! I think I sprained my big toe, it hurts like a mother. Alright that's all I got.
