What News Do You Want First?

Well, I have some good news and some bad news. Normally people want the bad news first so I will give you that and then I will lift you up with my good news. So, the bad news is that the sun has not come out for almost a week here. Last week was perfect summer weather - warm sun, clear skies, and capri pants and flip flops! But for some reason, Sunday brought the gloom and it has not lifted since. To boot, it has turned back to winter! To go to town the other day, I actually had to wear a scarf and gloves. Since the sun is literally the source of warmth here, it has been greatly missed, especially after coming from blazing hot GA weather. Every day has been rain and dark clouds and I'm not just talking about the weather. Where are you sun?

And now for the good news...

The sun came out today though in the form of a tall dark haired rocker who was just named our new "American Idol!" My roommate and I could care less about the weather today as we sat hunched over a computer watching a taped "American Idol" over the Internet (thanks to Ron's parents) and anxiously awaited the results. Being Cook fans from the beginning we were biting our nails wondering what the outcome would be. With Archuletta favored to win, we feared the worst but still hoped for the best. Cook was our man and as soon as we heard the first consonant of his last name the jumping and screaming began. In my opinion David Cook was the most deserving and was given the credit he deserved - what a talented, and might I add good-looking, singer! Now all I have to do is wait for his cd!!
