TallulahBelle is my new favorite Idol commentator. Her analysis of Sunday’s performances was spot on, and she shares my insane amusement with the antics of Mr. Bobby Flynn. (Thanks to crumpet for pointing me to Tally’s site.)

Pictures from last weekend’s Bridge Run are now online! Why is my natural impulse to give the thumbs-up in every time I see a photographer?

Spring Summer CleaningDude, it was NINETY DEGREES today. We have officially leapfrogged Spring and gone right into a blazin’ hot Aussie summer. (Literally.)

Stop. The. Presses. Bobby Flynn is apparently going to be singing Arthur’s Theme (Best That You Can Do) on Idol this Sunday. First off: that’s AWESOME. Secondly: Did he go see The Boy from Oz last week too?
