Amie Stuart ~ On the Back Porch

I totally stole this from TNG!

I used the auto-sumarize in Ms WORD and had it sumarize 10% of my current wip.  Here’s what it picked up……
“Ameda.” 
“You missed me,” she breaths, a smile curving her lips.
“I’ve missed you, Ameda.”
“Micah,” she gasps softly, “never.
If I wasn’t careful, she’d pull out a handful.
Tears filled her eyes as the front door softly closed behind Micah.
Ameda had barely rescued them in time.

“Klaus, can you drive any faster?”

I call it home.  My friend Jerran calls it a gilded cage.

WOHOOOOOOOO I hit page 50 (in like 10 days which is HUGE for me).  I wrote TWELVE pages to day (also huge) I lost 4 more pounds (in five weeks) also HUGE bringing the total to 22 and nearly 1/4 my weight loss goal.

Can’t say I was too surprised to see Brandon go on AI but I’m sad.  I think he’s got potential he just never could seem to pull it together. 

(side note–I’m SO NOT a Diana Ross fan so last night’s AI was especially painful for me).

What is the chill factor? It’s that chill you get when something really touches you–for me it usually involves singing.  Phil, Melinda, Lakisha, Jordan all had chill factor.

If possible, Hailey just proved why she shouldn’t have made it to the top twelve, and for fuck’s sake SIT UP STRAIGHT WOMAN! You’ve got millions of people watching you and you’re slumped over like a freaking rag doll.  That dress was ugly.  And she was worse than Sanjaya (who actually wasn’t that bad last night–except for his hair and worse, the dangly earrings which I just hated.  Sanjaya has a problem many writers can probably relate too–he sucks at transitions.).

Brandon–what was that?  I’m still confused.  And saddened.  My heart hurts.

Chris–I liked his version but then see my note about not being a Diana Ross fan, same for Blake and Chris R (esp Chris R who I really like).  But I also agree with the judges that sometimes you really do have to let Motown be Motown.  I really liked Gina’s performance, I fast forwarded through Stephanies (Disco died for a resaon).

Overall an uninspired waste of my time.  Made worse yet by the fact that there was NOTHING ELSE ON!  At least DIRT kicked ass last night!
