seacrest has returned to me!

[dianora2]

In other words, American Idol is back! I will now be in a very happy state until a few weeks from now when I start hating everyone. I'm undecided on new chick so far, except to wonder why so many people (including Ron Moore) have trouble pronouncing the name "Kara." It's not hard. I kind of like that she's a bitch, but I think I haven't decided yet if she's a good bitch, or a bad bitch. *g* Seacrest, of course, was delightful, especially when he was pretending to actually be interested in a hot girl in a bikini.

I still haven't watched the second part of 24 yet, shame on me. Especially since in the past two days I *have* managed to watch not just AI, but also A Real Chance of Love and A Double Shot at Love. I apologize to the universe. (Anyone who saw the Real Chance finale needs to come in here and talk to me about it, though. Bex? Anyone?)

Can't say I'm surprised or overly upset about Prison Break being canceled. It's time. Will miss Wentworth on my TV screen, though.

So after I bitched to Karmaloop, they are now tracking my UPS package as well as my having filed a claim. I have been unsuccessful so far in getting UPS to take any blame for leaving a package out in the open in an apartment building. Big shock.

I also received a bill for $18 today from Cablevision (my former cable company), which is hilarious because last time I called they said they were sending me a CHECK for $18. Jesus Christ.

And I slept through my subway stop today. How embarrassing is that? I only missed it by one stop, but still. I usually wake up just in time to get off at the right place. *g*

On a more positive note, I am pleased that bsg_100 has 60 watchers so far and lots of great drabbles have been posted already! Come join the fun!

Next Friday I'm going to Belize. How crazy is that? I am concerned about the weather forecast, though. I have a horrible feeling it's going to be rainy. Oh well. Do they let you snorkel in the rain?

ETA: OMG Bradley Whitford and Rahm Emanuel in the same photo. *head explodes*

snorkeling in the rain is extremely cool--the fish come to the surface to see what's going on. You'll have a blast.

(also: boat drinks taste just as good in the rain)

I laughed out loud at the subject line.

Enjoy Belize!

Take Care

He came back JUST FOR ME, Mara. I know it!

Snorkling:

As long as there's no lightning. :)

I am VERY bad - I haven't even watched part one of 24 yet! Booness.

Oh man, I've slept through many a subway stop. When I was living in Tokyo, one of my friends passed out fell asleep on the train and ended up in Yokohama. Now that's embarrassing, haha.

Belize! I'm so jealous! Random: Wash your snorkel mask with Johnson's No More Tears Baby Shampoo to prevent fogging. :)

I will totally talk about Real Chance with you but since the cable is dead here, I never got to see Double Shot, but I am happy to be spoiled.

My jaw hit the floor when Chance didn't choose anyone! I couldn't decide if he was doing it b/c he thought it upped the odds of him getting another season or not. But I was laughing so hard at how he kept crying, especially when Cali started telling him about her childhood in the restaurant, and all of a sudden he's bawling and she's dry-eyed. LOL. And I was sooooo happy that Corn Fed won because I couldn't STAND Bay Bay Bay. Not that I think he and Corn Fed stand a chance, but it was still nice to have the happy ending.

You didn't miss too much on Shot at Love, it was the home visits. But you should watch it if you can b/c they go to Rosemarie's family on Staten Island and it is SO STATEN ISLAND oh my god. Hilarious. And Scott's family was freaking awesome, Rebekah's family was weird, and Trevor's family was uptight. They wound up eliminated Rosemarie which really wasn't a surprise. Oh, and the twins got in a big fight when they were discussing who to send home and Vikki actually pushed Rikki over, she was so pissed. It was awesome.

I am sure they were probably guaranteed multiple seasons if there were enough ratings so I don't know whether Chance never picked anyone because of further seasons or because he really didn't find 'love'. I don't think he's the love type, he wants to be footloose and fancy free and be a rogue.

I have wanted to slap BBB since day one, she is such a trashy bitch. Both in the interviews and in the onscreen antics, I swear she was better suited for Chance because both of them are gutter-ish.

I feel bad for Corn Fed because I truly think she was there for the right reasons, but she is from middle America and even though Real is (seems) pretty normal, I am sure the lifestyle blows it up for them.

Reunion next week!

[dianora2.livejournal.com]

I'm sure you're right about the multiple seasons. Picking someone at the end has never prevented that before. It's really hard to imagine Chance falling in love with anyone. But I actually thought he had stronger genuine feelings for New York than either of these two girls.

The reunion will be interesting, not least to see what's up with Real and Corn Fed (did we ever even find out her real name at the end?).

[bexatious.livejournal.com]

According to Wiki it's Abbi La Nay Noah. But they never said at the end of the show.

[bexatious.livejournal.com]

I will have to find a torrent for Double Shot. It's so obvious who they will pick but I suspect they will also do a Real Chance and have only one pick love and the other no one, which paves for the way for A Double Shot of Love A Deux, because you know the whoever gets love will break it off because it will be too hard for the other twin to be without love.

Oh well. Do they let you snorkel in the rain?

As long as there's no lightening involved. :)

I'm undecided on New Judge so far. Her embarrassing "one upmanship" of bikini girl was horrifying, although no one came out of that one looking remotely good. Maybe Paula, which is saying a lot.

[dianora2.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that was just really inappropriate. I figure I'll be generous and chalk it up to it being her first day and all, but, yeeesh.

On the other hand, it might be refereshing to have a judge who can actually SING (as Paula does not fall into that category, LOL).

Thank you so much for the link to the Brad/Rahm picture! :D
