I am so exhausted. I have a GI virus, which is...adorable. The stomach pains and the particularly fluid bowels are not even the worst part. It's how tired you feel. I'm totally exhausted. My sister thinks it's because of the pepperoni I had. Ew.

Of course, my emotions have been so unstable these past two weeks, and then I received the ultimate blow last night that rid one of the few feelings of security and stability I have going these days, so I'm just a mess. I've been dealing with surges of rage that I've managed to settle through Christina Aguilera's fourth track on her CD and a bit of the Chicago soundtrack, both leaving me feeling empowered for very different reasons.

I can't seem to take a nap either. I just sort of lie there. It's not great. I think I'm definitely suffering from watching too much TV. I'm positive of it. It's been sucking the life out of me, and I'm so addicted that I can't even turn it off when I HATE what I'm watching.

Weird Science was on this morning. Great flick. I just caught the end of it, and I wondered if it was sending a really horrible message. I mean, Gary and Wyatt or considered "cool" at the end because they save the entire party from the bad guys by having a gun. Unpopular guys using guns for power - isn't that an issue of which our nation is currently suffering? "Get a gun to defend yourself. Then you'll get the girl and be popular." I mean, I still love Weird Science, and I'll watch a million more times before I die enjoying every second of it, but I'm just saying that if you think about it, it's a bad message.

Ugh, I don't feel well.

We never got to talk about American Idol. I'm outraged. Charles Grisby was one of my personal favorites, and I cannot even believe that he received the least amount of votes out of all of those assholes. LESS THAN JULIA!! I cannot figure out what is going through the minds of America who call in and decide that she should stay. I will never understand it. How many damn times does this girl need to be in the bottom three before we can kick her off my TV screen? Even the judges are like, "Yeah, well, I know why Julia's in the bottom three."

Ruben is so adorable that I can't handle it. He sang A Whole New World because, "Aladdin is the man." Do people get cooler than Ruben?

So, here's the problem: I'll be going away for a little over a week. I'm going to work on getting that episode review up like I normally do, but I just wanted to give a heads up if it's not on schedule.

I have a million things to do. Have a great week. Check in the review on Tuesday.
