So Tuesday was voting day here. Kentucky had its primary, and I voted. After voting, I was given a sticker that said “My Vote Counted!”

Well, Tuesday night was also American Idol night, and I voted for David Cook about 15 times.

Wednesday… Hilary Clinton won Kentucky and David Cook won American Idol! (Yes, I just admitted to the world that I cheer for Hillary Clinton)

My votes DID count!!

Yes, I am blogging about American Idol. I’m actually writing this as I’m watching.

David Archuletta is incredibly boring as usual. His voice bores me to tears. He can sing, I admit, but it’s very “so what?” to me. Big deal. Nice looking kid can sing. It’s been done before. I hate his Melinda Doolitte habits too. The “oh shucks, am I really that good?” crap and all of that giggling and stuttering and stuff. Annoying. At least he’s stopped that annoying habit of licking his lips all the time.

Syesha also bores me. She can also sing though. I hope I don’t offend anyone by this comment, but a lot of African American women can sing well and it’s not very impressive to me. It seems to come very natural for a lot of them. People who can sing well and sound the same all the time bore me. It’s not exciting to me. It’s expected.

Okay, by now you’ve probably guessed that if I don’t care for David A. or Syesha that I must obviously be rooting for David Cook. Darn right I am! The guy sang a Duran Duran song! Granted, it wasn’t a very good performance (no one can be Simon LeBon), but I never thought I’d ever hear a Duran Duran song on American Idol ever. I keep praying for a Duran Duran night though. The other cool thing is that our birthdays are close together, oh and me and him had the same exact high chair when we were babies! How cool is that!? How many people can say that!? (Everyone who had that same teddy bear high chair I guess…) David Cook is cool, unique, surprising, and all of that good stuff an American Idol should be. I will definitely be voting for him tonight!

They are singing three songs tonight. Now I shall sit and suffer through two more songs from both David A. and Syesha while waiting to hear the real American Idol, David Cook, to sing his songs.
