Kara? Really?

I just want to say I am so excited about Ellen joining the show. I can't wait to see her when she finally joins the show. I really think Ellen is a good choice. She is to funny. She knows how to tell it how it is but in a nice way.

Until then I just want to say Kara works my nerves. Always with the same response "Honey, I just don't think this is for you" "Honey, you look nice but I don't think". Kara you don't think, you look around for one of the other judges to have an opinion and jump on that, even if they ask you first you go with what you think they will say then once someone else makes a comment you jump on that band wagon.

Anyway, I just had to get that off my chest. I am going to miss Simon so much. He is funny. Sometimes he is a bit much, but he is honest. I think he is gonna miss Paula, which I know I will. I loved Paula. I hope she does join his new show!!!

Here is to the new season, and possibly the last good season. Without Simon and with Kara, I don't know how far Idol can make it!!!

American!!!

Tonight I was watching American Idol. Don't we all wish we could sing?

When I was 18 I had my son. He was so sweet. The cutest baby ever. Still is in my world. Anyway, being so young and not having your typical childhood I did not know a lot of lulibies.

Well when I was in 7th grade my dad insisted that I played some sport. Basketball, that is his sport. So I did, well I may not have been very good but they let me play guard, on varsity no doubt. Anyway, the point is on the bus to different schools the other girls would sing. I did not listen to very much music so I did not know very many songs. One that they sung a lot was SuperWoman by Karyn White. Well I learned the song, every word.

So when my son was born he was not the kind of kid that went to sleep with lullabies or a pacifier. So I tried my favorite song from when I was on that bus long ago. SuperWoman. I would sing and sing and he loved it. He always fell asleep to that song.

Life goes on but that is still one of my favorite songs. Tonight listening to American Idol I thought of that song. I actually sang it with all my heart. Yeah still would not make it on the show, but once 15 years ago someone enjoyed it as much as I did.
