So now the theme on tonight’s American Idol is apparently “Top Downloads,” which is even more vague than #1 Downloads. Top Downloads could be anything. Considering SPOILERSPOILERSPOILER that Allison is apparently singing “Don’t Speak” by No Doubt SPOILERSPOILERSPOILER Top Downloads is anything. I was jamming to “Don’t Speak” in high school. ...

WatchYay for NBC’s pilot, Trauma, pretending to blow up gasoline tankers on 280! I saw all of the vehicles they gathered to put this together last week. They filled up a good sized chunk of the Giants parking lot with those cars.

Have you been following this story? It’s seriously better than a soap opera. Days of Our Lives’ baby switch storyline has nothing on this.
I’ve noticed that a lot (and by a lot, I mean about three, ha) of people have been stumbling across my blog after searching for this week’s theme on American Idol. For anyone who may be looking for the latest theme, I read that it has something to do with iTunes, possibly the top 100 list, meaning someone is probably going to sing a Miley Cyrus song, meaning I will probably laugh.
I don’t know what it says about me that no matter what song comes on XM’s 60’s on 6, I inevitably end up singing along with it. When did I learn all of the lyrics to all of these songs? And how have they been stored away in my brain for so long? And most importantly, why can’t I make other stuff stick in my brain (like the two chapters I need to study for my Geography...

On Monday I jogged my regular route, and it said the distance was four miles. Today I ran that same route, and it said I’d gone three miles. Ugh. I love it when my sensor doesn’t work right. It makes it look like I’ve suddenly started running at a snail’s pace in between decent (for me) times.
I was trying to figure out how I would handle recording this Wednesday night extravaganza of reality television (American Idol, America’s Next Top Model, and Survivor) since they’re all on the same night this week and at the very same time. I’m old school and still record using a VCR instead of some newfangled TiVo or DVR. However, I’ve since discovered that...
Looking at the dates on my last handful of posts, do I only post on Tuesdays now?
I’m listening to XM’s The Blend, because I’m super hip like that, and right now they’re playing what I guess is a new Lionel Richie tune. (Or new-ish. It doesn’t have that snazzy sax that so many of Mr. Richie’s classic 80’s tunes have.) When good ol’ Lionel was on DickClarkRyanSeacrest’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve, I remember...
I’m totally kicking myself for not picking up a box of Kix in the snazzy retro box the one (and only) time I saw it at Target. Ever since I’ve decided that I really, really, really want it, I haven’t been able to find it. Sigh.
Has it really been a week since I posted anything here? I fail. I’ve also been cheating on Tumblr with Twitter lately. I apologize.
I’m looking forward to seeing which Carrie Underwood song Danny Gokey sings on American Idol tonight. Carrie just needs to put out another album. Then the show will have enough songs to choose from to turn country week into Carrie Underwood night. I...
Tonight’s theme on American Idol is the songs of Michael Jackson, hmm? Knowing this show, you just know that someone is going to pick “Heal the World” and babble some nonsense about how much they love our planet and wish for world peace. It almost seems like the kind of song that Danny won’t be able to pass up. Then again, he might go for a different ballad, like...
Yet another reason to like the Netherlands in the WBC: in Dutch, Major League Baseball is called Honkbal Hoofdklasse.
Let’s play some honkbal!

Next time I need help falling asleep, I’m going to play the video of Ju’not Joyner’s “Hey There Delilah.” It’s like someone played the backing music in slooooow moooootion.
I love that Ellen is asking Judge Judy about her opinions of The Bachelor finale on her show right now. I look forward to seeing Ellen with Melissa on Thursday and then seeing Ellen with Jason and Molly (Mol-lay) on Friday. Jason is so not Ellen’s favorite person right now.
Then again, Jason isn’t really anyone’s favorite person right now. Except for maybe his mom.

Seriously. This headline cannot be repeated enough. I love it so.
