Ready, Set.....maybe?

Hi –

It’s been a few days since my ultimate melt down. I’m feeling much better. Who knows where that came from? But it came, it went, and I have no doubt it will come again.  I hope next time it's not when I have plans though.

In unrelated news, I’m a little disappointed with the results from American Idol tonight. I’m not really invested in anyone too much, I definitely watch the show just for the singing, but the girl who got kicked off was really good. Her voice was huge.

In similarly related crappy reality TV show news, Kirstie Alley is really good on Dancing with the Stars. She’s very light on her feet. Must be from all the time she’s spent with John Travolta. I knew you were really interested on how I felt about those two things. I wanted to put you at ease about them.

That’s about it for me. I spent a lovely evening on the couch with Nick watching episode after episode of Soap. He’s equally in love with the show and it was really nice.

Saturday I leave for my week of traveling. It’s shaping up to be non-stop. I have to say definitely looking forward to it. Think happy things.

Love you forever, Miss you always.

“Sometimes it's a pair of old faded denim

I know it's gonna fit me like a friend

Or some radio song you can't help but sing along

Wishing they'd spin it over and over again

Could be the windows down on a Sunday drive

Smell of rain on a summer night

Anything that brings a little more comfort my way

But sometimes, there's those times

It's gotta be you”

And the Mirror Ball Trophy goes to...

Hi –

For some strange reason I find myself completely enthralled with this season of ‘Dancing with the Stars.’ I’ve always enjoyed the show because I love to watch people dance, but there is something about this season. Every Tuesday I find myself watching the dances from Monday first thing in the morning. The only reason I can come up with is I think you might have been mildly interested as well. I know you wouldn’t have watched it religiously or anything, (you never really watched reality TV), but I know we would have talked about it somewhat. I mean Jennifer Grey was in this season, baby herself, we would have gossiped about her for sure. If not Bristol Palin. The only reason this is even on my mind is because I’ve actually just stopped the 'Good Wife' from recording so that I could watch the last 20 minutes of the Dancing Finale. I was also recording ‘Sons of Anarchy’ and there was NO way I was stopping that. I apparently JUST need to know.

Moving on though. The past 2 days have been particularly annoying and more than once I thought I was going to lose it. There was this moment were I was beyond annoyed at something Harry Potter related, completely overwhelmed with my to do list, and completely occupied by thoughts of you that I started to breathe a little deeper and I could feel my thoughts being pulled towards this empty place. I felt like I was back standing in front of Ghirardelli on the phone with Uncle Skippy. Then just as quickly it was gone and I was back staring at my email annoyed with work again.

Good news – Jennifer Grey won Dancing with the Stars.  All is right in the world. I’m going to watch Son’s now.

Love you forever, Miss you always
