A new invention for hunger prevention

Last night while Tyler was writhing on the couch in hunger {don't be alarmed this is a normal activity in our house about 1-2 hours after every meal or snack} he had a moment of inspiration. He was explaining to me that he is always hungry and did I even know what that felt like? I had to be honest and tell him no. Because I usually feel full after I eat, and three meals a day seems to do it for me {this made him very jealous}. So he was explaining to me that he just needs carbs all the time. Things like bread and rice and tortillas administered through an IV would probably be the most effective...but not very practical {that was my brilliant idea}. So he then announces to me that he needs a "toast conveyor belt."

"A What?"

"A toast conveyor belt. Something that will make all kinds of toast- butter, raspberry jam, Cinnamon and sugar, garlic, peanut butter...{you get the idea} and will spit them out about every 15 minutes...and the conveyor belt will go from the kitchen over to me on the couch...that would be the best."

.....Umm?...{me laughing}.....

"I'm not joking! We need one."

.....{me laughing}.....

"Whatever. You don't even know what its like!"

"...Okay...Lets make one of those."

"Yeah!"

And thats how it went down. So you can all look forward to a toast conveyor belt to hit the stores sometime next year. We are going to make millions.

4 hours and counting...

We are only a few short hours away! I hope you all voted last night. You know I did.

It better be one of them.

But really it better be her.

She dominated last night.

{And have I mentioned what a hottiemchottie she is? Well she is. And she is lovely and sweet. And her fouettés into pirouettes on her solo nearly stopped my heart.}

I was home with them:

hanging out watching SYTYCD and meeting our newest family member, Regina Violet (RV)...or maybe its Regina Barbara...or Regina something. Thats all we know for sure.

SYTYCD

The time has come my friends- for America to choose its favorite dancer! (This will come off better if spoken in an accent like Cat Deeley) My absolute favorite show, So You Think You Can Dance, is ending this week. This makes me sad. But I am also very excited to see who is going to win. This has been one of my favorite seasons.

I am going to go against popular vote and say that I really really really hope Jeanine wins!! I seriously love her. She is only 18. She has one rocking hot body and is an incredible performer and dancer. I know people are booing me right now because everyone says Kayla should win- and I agree that she is incredible and I would be totally fine if she does win...but lets be honest folks. She does not have the personality that Jeanine, Brandon or Evan have. And that is such a huge part of performing for me. And for that reason- Jeanine has become my favorite. Plus she is a super hottie.

My thoughts on the final four:

Kayla (18!)...She is wonderful. There is not a single dance that she cannot do beautifully. Technique wise she is probably the best on the show. I find it odd though, that this girl cannot choreograph for herself. Her solos are awful. But I guess that doesn't really matter. Being a good dancer and choreographer are not mutually exclusive. She also looks more like a porcelain doll than a human. Her skin almost glows. Which I actually think is very awesome. And does this girl even have a torso? I sort of think not. She is all legs. And I like it.

Brandon(19...What!?)...It is quite obvious that Brandon is the best guy, and probably the best dancer on the show. His body is that of a Greek god sculpture. If you did not see his solo last week...please go here and watch his audition...which is almost the same as his solo was last week. Plus he is from Utah! Woot!

Jeanine(18!)...My favorite dancer! She is ridiculously hot- She is a fabulous dancer and so much fun to watch. She puts so much personality into her dances and I just love it. And her solos are always amazing. Tyler and I both have a crush on her. He especially enjoyed the lady gaga dance last week. He claims it was entertaining...but I can't be so sure...

Evan (21)...sweet guy- fun to watch do the style he does...but I don't think he should be in the top 4. I don't totally get the appeal that everyone else seems to think he has. But whatever. I still don't think he will win- and I doubt he does either.

Oh how I love this show. I wish it was on all year!
