older but faster

i called both my uncles in california last night. i really hate talking on the phone. always have. but i think i did pretty well, regardless. maybe some things do improve with age.

but i think they both appreciated it, and i think i was able to calm some of their fears about my dad, so it was nice.

go me.

american idol finale

fave performance:
adam - why can't he just sing, and not sound so affected?
kris - even better than the first time. he is so real and emotional. love :)

creator's pick:
adam - did he even sing? mumble mumble, shriek shriek. nice suit, tho.
kris - ugh, i hate this song. he did well considering, but... i dunno. at least he kept true to himself.

original:
adam - yikes. horrible song, bad vocals and poor diction.
kris - same awful song. think he messed up some lyrics and it did not work for him at all. but at least i could understand what he was saying. too bad :(

of course my pick is for kris, but i don't think he has a chance in hell of winning against adam.


EDIT for RESULTS:

i think i really liked the david cook song. and such a truly lovely guy.
omg, so much love for nick mitchell :)
loved the kris allen/keith urban duet. it made me so happy!
adam actually sang at the beginning of beth (and sounded good).
and holy shit, kiss.
sweet. love queen.

holy fuck. seriously? wow. completely shocked.
yay kris!!! and hey, he sounded pretty good there :)
so pleased, but SO surprised.

and now on to so you think you can dance. w00t!
