The Next American Idol?

OK, so I admit that I'm one of those stinkin American Idol watchers. I can't help it, ever since a season or two ago when my husband's in tax season and there's nothing to do at night to humor myself but watch TV during the winter weeks, I do start to watch a few shows religiously here and there. And for some reason American Idol has become one of them!

So I'm watching the big Idol show lastnight and I realize that I feel guilty b/c I'm not donating money that I myself don't have right now, and I know they asked for a $1 or $5 even, but my wallet is downstairs somewhere and I'm not on the computer and I'm trying to put the baby to sleep, so all in all it's not a win situation to be giving. I give to other charities tho, mind you! And b/c of this guilt I now feel, I feel like I can't actually watch the whole show, so I flip the channels...

I start watching the Food Network show called 'Challenge' where people go head to head to break world records with food. Lastnight's contests: ice cream scoops in a minute, pancakes in an hour, pumpkin carving, oyster shucking, and onion cutting. And I'm hooked, just like that!

So while I'm watching who the winner was of the pancake record and with how many made in the hour, I miss the American Idol boot off. I call my husband (who mind you is out of town working) and beg him to check the internet for the result. He can't find it. He's conspiring with his co-worker on what websites to check. And finally at 1030 at night I get a text message on my phone that NO ONE was booted this week, but that the PussyCatDoll winner was Asia! :)
What a good husband I have!
