• Howdy ya'll from Nashville TN.  The good, Our girls
  group won, the curse seems to be gone, I love, love , love a room by
  myself ( more later), Our solo boy in mixed won best male vocalist
  twice.  The not so good, The encore group made me cry ( the group
  that lost three members in a tornado,) The good for them, they won
  Grand championship, five thousand dollars was raised for them and will
  be matched by I forgot what show choir organization.  The not the
  best, our mixed group was third runner up.  The good, hey they
  made finals in a very competitive venue.  The bad, our director
  said he would shave his head if they won, they didn't.  The bad
  and good, I will never have another child compete in a show choir
  competition again.  The weird, the tornado groups song's all fit
  the tragedy, but they picked their songs before it happened.  One
  song was about nobody being left behind.  It was freaky.  The
  bad, the judges were big prudes and made us take the word slutty out of
  our show and nixed the kiss that the bride and groom did.  Those
  two small things took a lot from the show if you ask me.  The slut
  thing " I'm like her fairy God Mother"  " Only slutty"  got
  big laughs from the audience, that energized the kids.  The new "
  seriously" got no laughs and was stupid.  The not doing a stage
  kiss was dumb too, it's not like they were making out, grrrrr.

  I have decided when my millions come in from my order I am going to get
  my own hotel room.  My sister and Matt had discussed that I just
  needed my own dorm room to live.  In reality though, I need a
  hotel room, with room service, a hot tub on the premises,  , and of course the maid.  I like the swivel TV. too, you
  can watch it from any angle.  Having one down south would be nice
  too.  They are all so friendly here.  My shuttle driver (
  fancy word for bus folks) was so nice it bordered on fake nice, but was
  real.  And they say things like sweetie and hon even if your not
  dating and even if your the same sex. In fact they will say it even if
  your a complete stranger.    They also act like your
  really cute and nice, even if your not.  You can be as bitchy as
  you want and they are like "  well aren't you just the cutest
  thang".  I could get used to that, I think.  Well, flying home
  tomorrow, I'll try and catch up with you then and I'll try and lose my
  new southern drawl, as I think that might confuse the boys at work. "
  Why you talk like that Miss Laura?" 

  Thanks for the comments, it's very nice to come here from my hotel and see people are still interested.  Catch ya tomorrow.
