And the weather has been spiteful. It's hot and humid, and it's not even spring yet *grumbles*. The promised rain was a five minute torrential shower that forced me to slow down on the interstate yesterday while it lasted. Unfortunately, five minutes later, all was dry again, and today's wait for rain was in vain.

American Idol was, ah, somewhat predictable. The little girl who was mistakenly put into the boys' section, not that it matters now, is still in the race, and I bet it's because of her Farah Fawcett hair-do. Not that the guy who went out tonight didn't deserve to go out. His performance was poor. But hers was even poorer, and there was Hailey who gave a really poor performance, too. And she wasn't even in the bottom three.
This season's winner will be neither male nor white. That is my prediction. The final, I hope, will be between Lakisha and Melinda. The final four will include Jordin and Stefanie.
Of course, Lakisha and Melinda are all about transformation. Lakisha turns up on the stage, and the first thought that enters your mind is, "Oh, wow, here comes big momma from the Deep South". And then she starts singing and has a huge audience completely mesmerized. Then Melinda enters the stage, and you can't help like her because she's such a sweet young lady who was born old and will die young because she gives off this feel of timelessness. And then she starts to sing and transforms into a goddess. Those two are really amazing, they would turn a Back Street Boys song into a classic without effort.

I tried to answer a review just now, but I keep getting error messages. QueenP, if you read this, I'm working on the chapter and hope to send it off to NSS by the weekend, so it should be posted sometime next week. I'm sorry about the long wait! Between WIPs, Shrimpcast, the SSHG_Exchange, getting bits and pieces ready for Phoenix Rising, I simply don't have enough hours in the day at the moment, and having felt poorly last week doesn't help one bit.

LOL! You know I remember when we both moaned about the hot summer in Germany last year. And then you announced you'll move to the south, and I thought how will she survive this? Why didn't you move somewhere more north?

LOL I remember! It's not so bad here usually, just that the rain has been lingering but not come down, which makes the atmosphere really humid and I find it very tiring. Thankfully, it's cooled down a bit tonight. :-)
