Not that there's anything wrong with that...

Last night we watched us some TV at home and then later with friends and the two shows we watched I really liked. It wasn't sports, or some cop drama with brief nudity but rather a show about dancing and another abour Fashion Design. When Mark and Kendra were here visiting Finn Kendra got Kate hooked on the show So You Think You Can Dance. Well fast forward a couple of weeks and now I am really enjoying the show too. I know the names of the dancers and their speciality, I watch in agonizing anticipation as Ivan the Hip Hop Dancer tries his hand at Contemporary (a noble effort but not good). Living with Kendra for a year had an interesting effect on me. I remember Jesse, Mark, and I going to the movies to watch some fruity dance movie and not wanting to admit that we all kinda liked it. Now I will admit that I really like a dance show. The afore mentioned Ivan will probably be voted out this week because people are much tougher on Hip hop dancers struggling in other genres then they are with Contemporary dancers struggling with Hip hop.

The other show of the night was Project Runway and that is just great TV. From Tim Gunn imploring the designers to "Make it work" to the lovely Heidi Klum this is an entertaining show, especially while drinking tasty Woo Woo cocktails. I thought that if I watched 3 hours of TV a week it would be a basketball game, or at least Sports of some kind, but my life now is dance and fashion. I am becoming more and more like Mark everyday.

Oh James, that brings a tear to my eye knowing that I turned you on to dance. I actually remember that movie, you guys were such good sports to go with me and try it out even though its not your favorite, that's one of the things that make you and Mark so awesome.
Mark and I just watched both of those shows last night and they are truley 2 of my most favorite on television right now. I was sad to see Ivan go but I think it had to be done, now its going to be really hard to pick a winner, I think its going to come down to Benji and Travis.

OH, for sakes alive, enough with the dancy fashion talk! Leave that stuff off the blog and lets hear about Finn and his new pair of FILA's, or his new outfielders glove.
