Trapped in Target.

Will this calling ever end?

But tonight.

Blessed, peaceful tonight.

Dancing With the Stars

100th episode

Judges will reveal their favorite 10 dances of all seasons.

I'm sure to see Julianne Hough again!

1.0 and 2.0 will be at church.  3.0 will be in bed.

Ohhhhhh yeaaaaaaaaaah.

SMOOCHES!

You want to dance with stars?

Then come over and boogey with my big girls!  They just got in the school talent show! 

79 acts entered, but 20 were chosen (at least - that's what the mommy-rumor mill is reporting.) They'll be doing a jazz dance to You Can't Stop the Beat from Hairspray.

Each act that was chosen gets to work on advertising the event.  1.0 was selected in her group to make a poster that will get to hang on a real live SCHOOL WALL!  Oh yes!  Her poster - on a school wall - announcing a Mormon family dance!  Their lives are now complete.

I have few demands as a mother of my children, but there are a couple of must-dos.  Someone in the house 1. WILL be an Olympian, and 2. WILL be a professional dancer. And it seems we're well on our way to accomplishing number two.  I mean, I'm not personally on my way to making number two.  Two being a dancer, not ummm, you know, the other Number Two.  One of my kids might end up dancing - not pooping. I mean, they all poop - that's going well here. Not that I check...I just don't hear complaints about it. But this is about dancing, not pooping....

Shock and awe

Two things I never in a million years thought I'd ever say:

1.  Priscilla Presley is enjoyable to watch on DWTS.

2.  I had a good experience going to the Wal Mart super center today.

I know!  SHUT UUUUUUUUUUUUUP!!!

Pris isn't someone I'd invite to my sleepover, but she's reasonably enjoyable to watch dance. Her face (surprisingly) moves a lot more than I thought it would considering it's state of Botox-ness.

And today - at Wal Mart - not only was I first in line for a register, I was greeted out in front of the lines by someone asking if I was ready to check out.  Knock me over with a yellow smiley!!

Meet the contestants!

I'd like to introduce you to some of my (sniff) bedazzled heroes!!!  

Funny stuff, peeps!

"

Oh yes oh yes oh yes!!!

I don't watch a ton of TV. For the most part, I have trouble sitting still that long.  Now, that's not to say the TV isn't on. It's on a lot for me to fall asleep, etc. But I'm pretty picky about programs I'll sit and watch.  And a lot of what is on now is reality TV - which overall, I'm not super duper into.

But there are two huge exceptions. I love and I mean LOVE Project Runway.  That show is fierce.  (Now - what the monkey is a "hot tranny mess?"  Maybe I don't want to know.)

And I love - am addicted to - consider it a highlight of my week  to watch.........DANCING WITH THE STARS!

Oh man - I'm so excited, homeys!  It's on this week, it's on this week!!!

I'm a mess for this show. (Perhaps a hot tranny one, if it doesn't mean something totally wonky.)  I pretend I'm a famous dancer and try the moves at home. The kids mock me and I send them to their rooms until they tell me I'm amazing and clearly should be on the show. (That's a perk of motherhood - forcing the children to sing my adulations.)

I love the show in high def and seeing all the sparkles. I imagine myself looking trim and glitterized and I get giddy.  I am very in love for the live music and the judges. Oh - Len Goodman.  I'd cha cha with you, ya meanie!

There's a lot I'm looking forward to seeing this season of the show. For instance, I want to see if Priscilla Presley's face ever moves or if it is, in fact, frozen to look like The Joker forever.  I also am dying to see if they have her dance to an Elvis ditty. Come on - you know you want to see her tribute dance to The King, too.

Marlee Matlin?  HELLO - that'll be fascinating.  Not since Heather Mills have we seen someone on the show with such a clear dance challenge.  Unless, of course, we are going to count Wayne Newton.  he he he

Penn Gillette can make the competition disappear. This should be good!  

And they got Steven Guttenberg?  I wonder if he'll waltz with a printing press?  (In my head, that was so hysterically funny.) Who is Steven Guttenberg, folks?

I predict Kristi Yamaguchi to be America's sweetheart once again.  After, of course, myself.  

Any other Dancing with the Stars lovers out there?  

I am dying to see Julianne Hough (my fav) with Adam Carolla. I don't see him being much of a dancer, so this should be a panic.  I suspect he'll corrupt that little Mormon girl.  

Ahhh, so it's certain to be a good week this week.  A dancing, bedazzled, co-host fest of a week!  YAY!
