As the Idol judges would say, he really made it his own.*m*https://www.blogger.com/profile/11269064424083303397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381811875173852585.post-87022845359102191772010-05-27T16:47:10.981-07:002010-05-27T16:47:10.981-07:00Saucy -- I predicted Lee the winner three weeks ag...Saucy -- I predicted Lee the winner three weeks ago. It's those sleepy eyes. The girls dig him. But Crystal is clearly the better, more deserving singer.

Just like Christina Aguilera hersel...Dear Matron, <br /><br />Just like Christina Aguilera herself, you rock. <br /><br />Saucy would like to apologize profusely to Aguilera (see how you taught me that rule?) for publicly stating in 1999 that it was Britney Spears and not Aguilera who had staying power. So shameful. We all know how that worked out.<br /><br />From one unabashed Idol fan to another, have you recovered from the outcome or was it to your liking? Saucy went to the hairdresser today to ease her pain and decided to leave the salon in silent, hirsute protest... hence the dreadlocks.Saucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16959141177904095053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381811875173852585.post-63398152289955861252010-05-27T10:06:17.853-07:002010-05-27T10:06:17.853-07:00I get chills--what a moment you've captured.I get chills--what a moment you've captured.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381811875173852585.post-89456188512589858312010-05-27T08:26:25.331-07:002010-05-27T08:26:25.331-07:00Congrats to you!

Cannot imagine doing that PLUS a dissertation.<br /><br />My own personal mantra when something intimidates me -- usually an upcoming presentation or a potential confrontation -- is something #1 Son said years ago: "It's nothing to be afraid of. It's just a bunch of unarmed white guys."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381811875173852585.post-54932487688644943722010-05-27T04:07:27.133-07:002010-05-27T04:07:27.133-07:00I think that post is an inspiring story, too. You ...I think that post is an inspiring story, too. You have written a dissertation with two toddlers to take care of, and self-esteem issues. If you managed that, I can manage to kick ******'s ass into tomorrow too ! Thank you, Minnesota Matron ! :-)<br /><br />PS : no, I won't physically assault anyone, in case you're worried. Someone at work threatened me and disrespected me several times... and now's the time to retaliate.

After seeing Christina Aguilera on that show, I wrote my dissertation. Speaks to my strangeness. . . or maybe the next day it would have been the dog that kicked me in the butt but to this day, I have gratitude for that interview.Minnesota Matronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16565431067927240183noreply@blogger.com
