I just got to witness music history in the making. Casey Abrams on American Idol tonight was one of the most impressive things I have ever seen. I have fallen hard for this guy and I can’t wait to see where he goes after Idol. ‘Cause I want to be in the front row.
The downside to Netflix, “On Demand”, and DVRs–my 2 year old cries when she sees commercials. What is instant gratification going to do to the next generation? Very scary thoughts…
Well, I am incredibly embarrassed to admit this, but I just feel awful that I neglected so many great and important relationships in my life for so long. But better late than never, I guess. Like Megan said recently at Andrea’s bridal shower–after seeing so many bridges we’ve burned, its really awesome when you discover … Continue reading
Sarah came to get me and Gwennie for Andrea’s bridal shower Saturday morning. I got to french braid Sarah’s hair–which was a first–and I’m not going to lie, I kept tripping over the word “straight” because my mom was sitting right there next to us.
