TV and (of course) Dance

Ok. We are going to address two things here. I bet you can guess what they are! They are (drumroll...) TV! and DANCE! It's shocking, I know. We'll start with TV first and then I will give you the lowdown on the latest dance drama of my legs. It'll be a real joy.
1. TV-I have two things to talk about here:
a. (because I am already numbering using 1 and 2, I had to move on to a, and b. I knew MLA outlines would someday become useful.) American Idol. As y'all know, the American Idol finale was just yesterday. I was annoyed that Lauren was there, because she's bugged me all season. I grew to surprisingly really enjoy Scotty McCreery however, surprising because I do NOT like country music, especially the twangy variety. But I liked him. Go figure. Anyways, I was beyond scandalized when Lauren was just mauling Scotty. It was honestly disturbing. I thought to myself, "Now young man! You can do much better than that!" I was so annoyed that I decided to research. Yes, of my own free will (and volition). Happily, the research confirmed what I hoped: they aren't dating. Lauren apparently said Scotty, "Might be her boyfriend. Ask him." in typical Lauren, wannabe fashion. Scotty said they weren't. To several reporters. Flat out said he didn't want anything more than friendship. So I was relieved that the poor boy isn't stuck with Lauren, because he sure doesn't deserve that.
b. Food Network. Ever since we got cable so that my little bro could watch more sports I have found that I really enjoy watching cooking shows. I tape a few, and then other times just watch whatever is on. It's my favorite channel, and it makes me want to cook more. Plus, then my family can all walk around talking about arugula, reductions, and different plating options. It doesn't get much better than that folks.
2. DANCE and the DRAMA
No really. There's news. It isn't juicy though, sorry. This isn't gossipy drama, this is nitty gritty pain type drama. As in today I had to lie down in the middle of dance class and get my leg taped, because, lucky me, I have shin splints. What a fun occasion. It's stressing me out a little, due to my dance concert being a week from tomorrow, so I sort of need to be able to dance well. Prayers would be muchly appreciated. With that, and as much rest as possible in the midst of all the rehearsals, hopefully I'll be able to perform well and have fun.
