Trying to prove that I’m actually working on other posts than just my television reviews,<\/p>\n
I’ll keep this one short.<\/p>\n
First of all,<\/p>\n
Bowling is over,<\/p>\n
So I have until 8:59 e.s.t. to get this up …<\/p>\n
Though I’ll post before then,<\/p>\n
Because I’m dying for some food.<\/p>\n
I’m doing that phreaking South Beach Diet thing,<\/p>\n
And I must say …<\/p>\n
It sucks.<\/p>\n
Considering my aversion to exercise, <\/p>\n
My disdain for dieting, and …<\/p>\n
My fondness for a tody every now and then,<\/p>\n
I’m sorely tempted to consider evaluating the bulimia thing again.<\/p>\n
However,<\/p>\n
I am down 10 lbs …<\/p>\n
Woo hoo !!! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
And more on the plus side …<\/p>\n
I’ve eliminated my entire winter hibernation weight gain,<\/p>\n
And now am working on another 5 lbs for summer season warddrobe krap,<\/p>\n
Plus 5 lbs on top of that for a little extra play room letting me have some summer food binges.<\/p>\n
Though its been almost two weeks since I’ve had bread,<\/p>\n
Fries, or …<\/p>\n
A hamburger.<\/p>\n
And if I don’t get some food in me sometime soon …<\/p>\n
I’m going to krack and make a run to McDonald’s for a Big ’n Tasty, no ketchup, a double Filet ’o Fish, Value Menu Fry and oh, what the heck one of those chocolate\/banana shakes – supersized !!!<\/p>\n
Only two more days in Phase One though …<\/p>\n
I think I can make it.<\/p>\n
As far as Rod Stewart Idol goes,<\/p>\n
I’m not a fan of the big tunes of the 30’s and 40’s …<\/p>\n
So I was surprised to find myself enjoying as many of the performances as I did.<\/p>\n
I thought Chris was great, simply great; Elliot, Taylor and Katharine were super good; Paris was really good, Ace better than I expect, and Kellie not as bad as people, including her, seemed to think. Overall, the performances were a marked improvement over the past few. <\/p>\n
First to worst: Katharine, Chris, Elliot, Taylor, Paris, Kellie, Ace<\/p>\n
Nonetheless, the bottom three are going to be Elliot, Paris and Ace. (It could be Kellie instead of Elliot, but in light of her subpar performance, I think her supporters, i.e. ME, voted like those in Chicago.)<\/p>\n
It’s either going to be Ace or Paris going home … <\/p>\n
I’ll say Paris,<\/p>\n
Because I want Ace around longer …<\/p>\n
Since we need another non-great singer to help my cause with Kellie,<\/p>\n
For that time when we vote off a non-great singer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
