Are you bringing the TREO, or will I be getting the last post from mine as I cross the threshold of the ship???

Watching AI, where else?

Yep! Just wrapping up here. Here are my thoughts (in white - I finally get to do that!):

I think Taylor totally outperformed Kat. I like Kat's voice - when there's not too much going on in a song. Like with Over the Rainbow... simple song, not too much activity for her voice. When the song's more complicated, her voice is grating. And her last song - that was simply painful.

Taylor, however - I just love his voice. And his enthusiasm. He makes every song his own. He lives his music. I hope he wins.

Well, time for House! Packing waits another night...

Going to go print out one more door magnet....yes, I'm up to about 32....

and then watch AI (Tivo'd of course)

Catch ya later!!

Are you serious? You've done 32 door magnets. Who's carrying that bag? It's going to be heavy.

BTW, glad that Mowana will be ok.

I'm thinking they all aren't full size. On the Member Cruise there were lots of small magnets being left on people's doors. I was lucky to get a few. I've got a few special ones to pass our but no where near 32!

Here are my pictures of my cuties from tonight (dress rehearsal).

Yep! Just wrapping up here. Here are my thoughts (in white - I finally get to do that!):

And here are mine...

I didn't watch a minute of it... the ACM awards are on, and I was TRYING to finish packing... didn't get a lot done, but have quit for the night.

I don't think either of them fit what an "AI" was supposed to be from the start- someone who has that 'superstar' persona from the get-go... not just the musical talent, but the showmanship (including the ability to MOVE on the stage, which Taylor is so pathetic at, image, looks and charisma as well....

 

[CajunGirl2]

ARGH!!! Lost my post. Let's try again.

oops ... that wound up being a double-post.

Ang the girls are adorable!

The usual AI whiteout..
I agree with Samantha that Taylor outperformed Kat on all three.

Kat- #1, good, but felt odd somehow. #2, I still stick to my original opinion, she has a beautiful voice, but she doesn't sing songs, she sings words. She doesn't get into putting any meaning into her singing. And even rounds off words in her jump to go hit one of those patented high notes. #3, that was an awful song, but she could have rose to it and did it far less 'breathy' than she did.

Taylor #1, really jumped all over it with the 'fun' mode, but kept in the song. #2, Good, solid performance, but not great. #3, He really outdid himself and totally owned that song. No other way to put that.

Now, my opinion is it depends what kind of segments are doing the bulk of the voting is going to determine who wins this. If it's more young adults, Kat has it won right now. If its more older adults, could go either way, but I'd favor Taylor.

Ang the girls are adorable!

Elizabeth and I both agree... she says they are beautiful... and of course, the next words out of her mouth were, "Did you post my pictures after my recital?" (which was a month ago...)... here's the only one I have on this computer... just to make her happy...

Hey, Ang... before you know it, they'll be THIS big...

I keep getting the server busy message so I'll take that as a sign that I should get off of the computer & go pack or clean house.

I'm bringing it...but I won't be looking at it while I cross the threshold. Ya got me there.

 

[CajunGirl2]

Nice picture of Elizabeth too.


Please don't remind me that they'll be grown up soon!

OK... I'm sure I won't be either... but instead, while you ARE, and the rest of us pheasant peasants are waiting and watching for that royal wave. Don't let us down.

 

[justmestace]

Oh, Angie! They are GORGEOUS! Oh my!

And so is Elizabeth!


WOW. It's true.....DIS kids are #1

 

[justmestace]

OK... I'm sure I won't be either... but instead, while you ARE, and the rest of us pheasant peasants are waiting and watching for that royal wave. Don't let us down.

Nah...I'm really not the Royal Wave type, either.

What I MIGHT do....is post from the Treo....while you all are eating your SHRIMP!!!

By then, I'll already be unpacked, and lounging on the verandah....

Hey...where is everybody?

Trying to practice a posture analysis on ds (for my pilates exam)- good thing - he's so bony I can find all the landmarks - bad thing - he's constantly wiggling - so, I'm loosing them...

Anyone want to volunteer to be a willing victim for a posture analysis on the cruise???

 

[mickeymo]

Why is the server busy - since part of our group is traveling - it should be going much faster

I recently (sort of) re-posted the packing list. I think it's on page 2962.

I've seen men wearing Crocs. Jay & I saw a guy wearing them in Vegas. But Jay said he thought they looked like they'd be sweaty with all that plastic. Jay wears Teva sandals, and is fine with those, so I didn't push the issue.

Well a fine help you are! LOL
Fortunately I talked him into getting a brown pair this afternoon.
I've been wearing mine all day- not the flip flop ones but the ones with holes in them and such (the normal kinda I guess?) -just to test the "no blisters/no sweaty feet" issue before attempting to wear them at the parks--- and what they say is apparently true. My feet usually sweat a lot and they don't in these- and no blisters. The hype about these is true! LOL

Anyone else having trouble posting tonight? I kept trying and I'm only finally getting thru now- all the other times it said the server was too busy. Are y'all breaking the server tonight? LOL I have just over 24hrs before we leave! ack ack ack!
