Friday Fragments 5/22/09

Friday Fragments are bits and pieces of your week that are usually brief; too short for a stand-alone post, but too good to discard. Collect humorous observations, "Heard" items, and other small gems and put them together in a Friday Fragments post.  Here we go....

• I haven't been posting much lately because I've been so gosh darn busy!  Between being a taxi, schooling M, and everything else, I'm a mess!  I'm hoping life will settle down in the next 2 weeks.  We'll see.

• Last weekend, M had dance competition.  In their division, her group received 4th place for their Tap routine, 5th place for their Hip Hop routine and 6th place for their Jazz routine.  They were thrilled!  This video is of their Tap routine.  It was taken at an outdoor performance the weekend before competition.  M is the little brunette on the left at the beginning.  She ends up in the middle at the end.

• The end of May is so wicked crazy.  In the next two weeks we've got a birthday party to attend, another dance competition, recital rehearsals, recital, D coming home, a school picnic, and the end of the school year trip to Hershey Park for B.  ACK!!!!  Calgon take me away!

• Although I was initially rooting for Adam, I was happy Kris won American Idol.  I think it was a win-win situation.  Adam isn't bound by the winning contract and Kris gets a boost for his career.  It'll totally work for them both.  And Adam singing with KISS and Queen on the finale show?  Priceless!

• My favorite Summer show, So You Think You Can Dance, started back up Thursday.  I am thrilled beyond belief!  M and I watch it together and gab every week.  If you're a fan, look for my opinions every week when they get down to the top 20. 

• Baby snail count: 5 confirmed.  Adult snail count: down from 4 to 1.  Evidently once snails run out of algae to eat, they die.  Go figure.  (Yes, that would be sarcasm.)

I'm sure there's more, but I can't remember anything else right now.  Y'all have a great weekend!

Totally happy that SYTYCD is back on and they are doing a fall season this year too! I understand about the business...its all crazy. Hurry Summer!

This is the craziest time of year for me, too. It seems I'm busy every night of the week and weekend! I share your view of the Idol final. Some people complain about Adam's "screaming," but I think that it's wonderful, and it's not screaming for him; it's a natural gift that would only require screaming for those who don't have it. I cannot wait to buy his first album.

hope it slows down a bit for you but then it is summer so it may not slow down much. Too much fun going on

May is crazy all the way around. We are spinning here.

I, too, was happy about Idol. I think Adam has things in the works and is glad he is not tied to the show as well.

Thanks for stopping by!

I LOVED their routine! What a great group of tappers :) They really did a great job, and I am so impressed by the length of the choreography.

Awesome job!

I am a HUGE SYTYCD fan. Can't wait!

Loved the tap routine :) We've got the beat!!

I was rooting for Adam, but he'll be just fine without the title, I agree.

Nice to meet you!

I completely agree about American Idol! It was a great finale!!
