Strange Orbs Invading
Â
I’m not exactly breaking news here because this has been out for several months now. Â I blog about this in my head all the time, though. Â
The first time I saw it I was driving down Colorado Boulevard. Â I noticed this huge orb-like thing on a billboard. Â No words, just it. Â
To this day I am fairly certain that it is a booby trapped mind spell. Â I was so distracted trying to figure out what the heck it was that my big gas guzzling Mommy bus swerved into another lane. Â A very grouchy woman in a Mercedes sedan lay on her horn, and do you know what else? Â She called me a very naughty word! Â
Biatch! Â Can’t you see I’m hypnotized by that giant Pac Man thing?
WTH is that?
Is it supposed to be a sort of Yin Yang thing?
Reminds me of one of those 70′s airline logos.
Must… not… look… directly… at… object….
In the back of mind I was thinking, “If Pepsi is rebranding itself they should seriously fire the people behind it.”
Ooops! Â It actually is the new Pepsi logo!Â
If you google “new pepsi logo” you’ll find all kinds of hoopla and speculation. Â I ‘m not really interested enough to actually read about it, so I just skimmed enough to learn that there may or may not be some intricate formula behind the new design. Â
Whatever, please just take it off the billboard so I can drive in a straight line! Â Â
OH, and get this. Â Apparently Mountain Dew is now Mtn. Dew. Â In this age of twittering and texting, are we actually going to degrade an all time classic beverage? Â
Next weekend when I go skiing shall I update my facebook profile with “heading to the mtns”?? Â
Not me, can’t do it. Â Not cool enough. Â My inner geek won’t allow it.Â
 Â
I could care less about the Pepsi UFO saucer hypnotic logo thing, but Mtn. Dew? Â How do you even say that? Â My Jersey friends always say “Mou-in” – would it be sort of like that? Â Â Â
I’m pretty sure I couldn’t drink a Mtn. Dew.  Just doesn’t feel right.
 Â
I’m a Diet Coke girl. Â In fact, I’ve been faithfully trying to kick my Diet Coke habit for a full decade now. Â So, have fun with your logo on an acid trip and your lazy abbreviated Mtn., and whatever other beverage silliness comes along. Â I’ll be white knuckling my steering wheel down Colorado Blvd. praying for the day they replace the mind control billboard…. all while sipping on my Diet Coke.

AI Junkies, Out Yourselves!
I am a closet American Idol junkie.Oooops, I guess I’m outing myself!
Yes, friends, I watch American Idol. Â I don’t know why I like it, I just do. Â I usually skim the audition shows and really don’t get into it until the top 12, but once the season really gets started I am all about it.Â
 I am a TIVO fanatic – can’t stand wasting time on commercials and if something bores me I just skim over it.  Tonight I fast forwarded through most of the final decisions on season 8 contestants. Â
The overdone drama is seriously annoying. Â The whole, “we are so sorry, this is so hard to say, you’ve had ups and downs and you know how you did. Â Keep in mind that this is really a hard decision for us …… (cue suspense music and nail biting)…. so, sorry but … but…. WELCOME TO SEASON 8!!!”
Over and over and over this same annoying set-up.
 Â
At least I’m loyal enough to fast forward through it and not just delete it. Â
I don’t really get attached to anyone this early in the season and rarely remember anyone’s name. Â There are always some characters that annoy the poop out of me but this season there is one chick that, when they told her she was going through, I actually felt like I might vomit in my mouth a bit. Â That girl, Tatiana Deltoro? Â (I apologize if I’ve misspelled her name.) Â She is kind of like an overly hyper puppy that might piddle at your feet any moment. Â Her wacky laugh makes me think of the sound a mile long train putting it’s breaks on at 150 mph might make. Â She isn’t a horrible singer but to be honest, I was so distracted by her quirkiness that I can’t really think of what my opinion on her singing is! Â
Lordy, you have to wonder if someone shouldn’t have shown her the video from the first auditions. Â You’d think some kind soul would have pulled her aside and mentioned that she might want to take a valium before her next appearance on national television. Â
I always feel a little bad for the people they trash on the show but I feel extremely uncomfortable about this girl. Â For her sake, I hope the handlers/coaches/style folks on the show can give this girl a little advice. Â If I were one of the coaches on that show I’d beg to be assigned to Tatiana. Â Someone save that girl from the shameful mockery! Â I am anxious to see how she does….
Out yourself AI junkies! Â I’ll still respect you in the morning!
