I'm signing! You're signin'! We're all signin'!!

No new desk yet.

Someone (Note : Salesman J) didn't have the proper plans, measurements or even furniture to do what we wanted yesterday. He has changed it all around and we are getting it all done tomorrow. That is sweet.

Anyways, American Idol was pretty good last night - I think Elliot is really good but doesn't make me want to stand up and cheer. J figured out what Katharine's problem is : She is completely tone deaf. When the band plays big and she can't hear herself, she is way off. Yeah - not a big fan. Taylor's "You are so beautiful to me" was amazing! I felt like he was really singing it to someone and he was literally in pain because that person was so awesome to him. (I can't believe how lame that sounded, but that is what I got from his song). I'm glad that he got sent to Hollywood from his original audition because he has been very interesting.

So no more TV talk. The weather here sucks - it is very very hot and it is making me cranky. The good thing is, it makes J totally pleasant to be around because he loves this weather. I guess I'd rather have a bunch of happy people around me in the sun than be lonely in the wonderful rain...

No more news on the Moose front - just a few more days of antibiotics (which are so easy to give him!! I just shove the pills in a little chunk of cheese and he sits and shakes and drools for those pills... another reason I love dogs over cats...). So then we take him back to the vet for blood work and we'll see from there. We keep praying though!

J & I are staying home for May long weekend - saving our $ for the California trip. I still have to get a few things for the trip : a bathing suit (ugh), a tan (I have red face, white everything else right now), an outfit for the wedding (do I buy something new? Wedding-attending-attire stresses me out) and I also need a hair cut. I am all about the straw hair thing right now - I also desperatley need some dye!!

Okay so The DaVinci Code is out in theatres this week and that sucks. BUT, the people on the radio said that it isn't getting very good reviews. Apparently people are actually laughing out loud in the theatre because some parts are so overly dramatic that they are hilarious. Interesting. K is going to go see it (she is "excited" because she just read the book) - I need to go back over all my sermon notes and do some reasearch for when she has questions. According the MSN.com, many people out there are believing the "Code". Ugh. I need to pray for God to give me the words and the answers to steer these people to the REAL truth. This movie/book is huge - let's not treat it as entertainment people. I don't care how much Tom Hanks rocks.

Speaking of the Hanks, I'm going to quote up one of my favorite movies : That Thing You Do. It is one of my total guilty pleasures - I love it!!

Phil Horace: I've found that a hit record is like a stew. All the ingredients have to come together just right. Otherwise, it's just soup.

Guy: Yeah, we were pretty wild up in Erie, Penn.
Lenny: Yeah, there was this one time, we stayed up way past midnight.

Villapiano: Know what this is?
Lenny: Presidential flashcards?
Villapiano: Nope. A bonus. And do you know why?
Lenny: I have no idea.
Villapiano: To entice you back!... The word is out on you o-NEE-ders!
Lenny: Hey, that's o-NEH-ders!

Jimmy: Diane Dane told me never trust a label. And I'm beginning to believe her.
Lenny: Well, sure. I mean, come on. They put us up in a first class hotel, all expenses paid, while our record climbs the charts; bunch of lyin' snakes.
Jimmy: Sorry, I guess I'm just alone in my principles. [leaves the room]
Lenny: Oh come on. Oh, there he goes off to his room to write that hit song "Alone in my principles."

[during TV interview with band]
Lenny Haise: Oh, I'm not here with these fellas. I've got a pig in competition over at the livestock pavilion, and I am going to win that blue ribbon!

Lenny: [when asked what The Wonders' musical influences are] Cap'n Geech and the Shrimp Shack Shooters.

[When Jimmy is reluctant to sign a management contract]
Lenny: Are you crazy? A man in a really nice camper wants to put our song on the radio! Gimme a pen, I'm signin'! You're signin'! We're all signin'!

Mr. White: This "Oneders" thing, with the o-n-e, it doesn't work. It's confusing. From now on, you're just The Wonders.
Lenny: As in, I wonder what happened to the O-Needers?

Lenny: Hey, wasn't that our fan?

Lenny Haise: So how long have you worked at Play-tone?
Receptionist: How long have you been wearing such tight paints?
Lenny Haise: Hey, if that's a pick-up line we're a match made in heaven.

Guy: When will the records be ready?
Uncle Bob: Luke 21:19
The Bass Player: In your patience possess ye your souls.
Lenny: Luke? Who's Luke? When will the records be ready?

Oh man dose that movie have everything - Steve Zahn, Ethan Embry, Liv Tyler, a really nice camper...! :)
