David and I had a parent/teacher conference today at The Boy�s preschool. We learned that he displays a positive self-image though he doesn�t yet know all of his shapes and colors. We�re working on potty training - yesterday he wore his Bob the Builder underwear all day, and went through seven pairs, I might add. By the end of the day he was getting the idea. I heard David yelp upstairs "Oh no, he peed on the rug!" That rug really tied the room together. Am I responsible for every rug that is micturated upon?
Carrie�s I, Anonymous is in the Stranger, yay Carrie! She should write a book. Or at least blog about a wall-eyed lesbian. Or at least write for Television Without Pity. This is Carrie�s sublime recap of last night�s America�s Next Top Model:
Tyra voice] Last night, on Top Model... The final whores are taken to visit some urban designers, who drive them around Cape Town to show them the ghettoes. I'm not sure why. Then they talk
about urban fashion design. I totally can't remember right now if they did anything modelly during this
segment. Anyway, then they go to a dance studio and learn that they will learn a little dance routine and
perform it in front of locals. Everybody sucks except Naima, because she is a dancer and amazing and so cool blah blah blah. Nobody cares. Actually the others don't do TOO bad, but Naima wins the challenge. The prize is extra photo frames at their next shoot, which is BORING. Then they all go on this history field trip (there's a lot of not-modelly stuff in this episode) to Nelson Mandela's jail cell. Keenyah asks Brittany
if Mandela is still alive. Later she acts like the experience touched her greatly, even though she didn't
know if he was alive or not. She also makes a huge deal out of it being EXTRA important to her because
she is black, calling herself the "only black girl" SEVERAL times with Naima standing right there, who is
also black. Tension rises! For the photo shoot they have to dance while advertising some kind of advertiser tie-in body wash. They are dressed like "40's aristocrats" which means they get cool wavy pinned hairdos. They also have to dance with "3 hot male models," only one of which is actually hot. One of the ugly ones has busy hands during the photo shoot which makes them all uncomfortable, especially Keenyah who makes everyone stop the photo shoot because "he's moaning on me." HA! Also, Keenyah is a tub of lard. After the shoot they go out to dinner with the male models, which was a dumb idea because no one really liked them. Keenyah brings no money and everyone gets mad at her and the whole night is awkward and dumb. On the way home Keenyah and Brittany get in a screaming fight about how selfish Keenyah is and how she didn't know if Mandela was alive. Mostly it's just incomprehensible screaming though. Naima hides from the fighting. Kahlen cries when she hears fighting. So we don't get a full-participation fight, unfortunately.
Judging: They have to dance and then FREEZE in poses! It's dorky. Then all the judges dance. I am grossed
out from having seen Nole dance. They go through the photos and everybody is pretty good and I am very
uncertain as to who they're going to cut. But they cut Brittany!! I'm bummed, she was my favorite obnoxious person ever. They said she was "losing her passion." Whatever. I can't believe they kept that bitch Keenyah. She's dumb as a post. And FAT! Next Tuesday: Top Model behind the scenes funtimes!
(on at the same time as the Gilmores finale though) Next Wednesday: The Finale!
If I were kristintracy I would tell you I�m wearing my hair down today, but I�m not and I�m not. Nork nork.
