American Idol Tonight!

Shamefully, I've just spent the last two hours of my precious time (?) reading up on American Idol's finale tonight. What else am I supposed to do when I'm off work and waiting for the very LATE repairman to come and install a door in my house? Hondurans are pretty funny sometimes with their always late attitude. Everyone always makes fun of "filipino time" but I had never heard of Honduran time until I got here. 8am the guy says. 10:17am the time on my computer tells me and he's still not here! I've got more important things to do here than wait for him! Oh well, more articles to read I guess.

So why the new door? Well, our old one sucks. Our bedroom is supposed to be our designated saferoom, yet our door is the weakest in the whole house. So when we found out that the door would be paid for, we jumped at the chance to get a metal door! That's right, a metal door! You'd need a H2 to break this baby down! I'll be just like Jodie Foster in Panic Room...although I've never seen the movie.

Here I wait. I'm excited and worried about tonight's American Idol. It'll be my word nerd's last performance! Awwwww.... Wonder if I can just hire him every Tuesday night to sing for me or something? Maybe not.

It seems like I'm in a chipper mood right now, but I'm still thinking of my mom. She is currently getting an EEG done and I'm worried for her. Most likely, like the other dozens of tests she's had done, it will come out fine...which means back to square one. It's strange that you WANT something to be wrong each time she takes a test. It's the only way to get closure and find out what her illness is. But at the same time, I'm scared as hell. What if the results do point toward something...and it's something serious? Will I have the mental strength to deal with that? Will my mom? All we can do is hope for the best, and unfortunately expect the worse.
