If the producers kill of Desmond, they will so have an uprising from their female fans who want to see that love story have a happy ending. Jin on the hand, is so dead. After the actor’s DUI arrest last year… he’s gone. As it looks right now, Jin, Des, and Micheal will be blown up attempting to disarm the explosives on the boat. Although I’m hoping Des survives, I think Jin has known for a long time that he would not be getting off the island. He has been telling Sun that he would get her off the island, but I haven’t heard him promise that “they would get off the island.”

So, something on the boat is transmitting. Who thinks that “torch the island” really means blow the boat and leave no survivors?

Also, from last week, when Claire was spotted by Locke in Jacob’s cabin with her Daddy, Christian Sheppard, and she seemed very blasé about the whole thing…  I think she’s dead.  There is no way she would leave Aaron in a tree stump.  I think she’d rather die than abandon him.  Personally, I think it was internal bleeding from the rocket attack that blew up her house.  But that’s just my wild theory.

Back to this week - I loved when Sun pwned her dad.  That was just too good!  Interesting that she said he was one of two people responsible for Jin’s death.  So who is the other one that she blames?  Ben?  Widmore?  Herself?  Things that make you go, hmmm….

The last scene at Christian Sheppard’s funeral - the one where Claire’s mother reveals to Jack that Claire is his half sister - You know what just killed me about that?  Jack can’t even tell the woman that Aaron is her grandson.  Because telling that destroys Kate’s claim to the baby and goes against the “story” they’ve been given.

Does anyone else wonder how Oceanic is going to explain the fact that they sent a camera into the wreckage and all bodies were “accounted” for, and yet at least 8 got out of the plane, with six surviving?  And the photo of them being welcomed by the island village…  Is it real?  or is it a fake setup?

Think about it, the six are Sun & Aaron (both on the freighter right now), Sayid & Kate - who have been captured by the Others as they ran through the jungle looking for Jack & Sawyer, who are out looking for Hurley, who’s stuck with Locke and Ben trying to move the island.  Based on the preview of next epsiode, we hear Ben telling someone that if they intend to leave, they had better do so, and they have about an hour. Since Sawyer, Kate, Sayid, and Jack will all be heading for the Orchid Station - where Hurley is, my guess is, they all battle Keamy and the gang, and once the moving mechanism is triggered, Ben tells them to grab Frank the pilot and hi-tail it out of there.  Thing is, Sawyer has already said he likes life on the island.  So when Kate hops on the helicopter with the guys, Sawyer kisses her goodbye.  I don’t get why Kate is so eager to leave either.  She’s only going back to murder charges and mom who has disowned her.  She’s all lovin’ on Sawyer…  is it the pregnant chicks die thing?  Is she scared of getting knocked up on the island?  I wouldn’t blame her on that one, for real…

It’s possible that once the helicopter gets back to the boat, Faraday is back with load two, then, the boat blows up.  the transmitter on Keamy’s arm is wired to the explosives in the boat, and set up so that if the island starts to move, the signal is sent and the boat explodes.  That would put the survivors of the freighter - Sun, Aaron, Jack, Kate, Sayid, & Hurley into the life raft heading away from the island and the blown up boat.  The photo could be real as they wash up in the fishing village.

But, whatever happens…  I so want to see Penny and Des reunited.  That is one of the best love stories on this show.

Oh, and it occured to me - Remember Des was having vision of Charlie’s death, and he kept saving Charlie?  What if the island was trying to kill Charlie so he could not do the thing in the Looking Glass station?  What if, when Des repeated saves Charlie, the island showed Des Charlie dying in the water to try to get Des to save Charlie again?  but it backfired.  But will come of Des’s vision of Claire and Aaron getting on a helicopter?  I mean, Aaron is off the island on the boat already.  How does this fit with Des’s vision of the future?

So many questions.  I love this show!  So much to think about and theorize.  It’s awesome.

I missed David A’s first song. I was busy putting my kids to bed. But honestly, I’m pretty sure the judges and TPTB want this to be a David V David finale, so in my mind this is a bit moot.

David A: Missed the first one. “And so it goes” I think… the clip at the end was ok. Can’t judge by that though.

Take 2: “With You” yea. He’s a cutie. Randy says it was weird to see him sing “My Boo”. Paula says it was perfect tone, and she kind of tries to say that he was nervous. Simon calls him a Chihuahua trying to be a tiger, claiming that it was a bit awkward because it wasn’t “David A”.

Take 3: “Longer” by Dan somebody. It was nice. Ballads are definitely this kid’s schtik. Randy and Paula agree this kid could sing the phone book and it would be hot. Simon says that David sang it well, and did a great job with the ooey gooey heaping mess of crap that is that song.

Syesha: “If I ain’t got you” by Alisha Keyes - this was Randy’s choice for her. Sorry girlfriend, but this seems like a second rate copy of Alisha. She’s a good singer… but… Randy says she did an amazing job on it. Paula is sunshine and kittens and Girl Power! Simon says she didn’t change it enough, and faults Randy for picking something that she would pretty much have to copy the original artist.

Take 2: “Fever” by Peggy Lee. Mad props for doing this in those heels. I would bust my ankle in about 2 seconds. I do have a problem with that skirt though. Seriously, the wrong camera angle will turn this from a family show to something way more icky. Would it have killed her to have another inch or two of fabric. Randy says it was interesting, but she sang it well. Paula says it doesn’t show of who Syesha is. Simon says she’ll regret it in the morning, that instead of being contemporary, she did a lame cabaret song.

Take 3: “Hit Me Up” Randy says that Rhianna-esque is her genre. Paula just gave her the kiss of death. Simon seals the deal with “forgettable.”

David C.: “First Time Ever I saw your face” Cowell says he wanted to give Cook something he could play around with. Since I’ve never heard it before, got to admit, it’s sounding… pretty ok. Randy complains he didn’t make it a rock song. Paula says it’s a fav song and he’s the 2nd fav who sings it. Simon says one of the best performances of it.

Take 2: “Dare you to Move” by Switchfoot I liked it. Randy said it wasn’t his best. Paula says that it’s hard to but a 3:30 song to a minute, and that we really needed more. Simon agrees that it was just OK.

Take 3: “I don’t want to miss a thing” Ooo… Areosmith. Good song. He’s rockin’. Pretty decent. Standing “O” from Paula. Randy tries to shout down the audience to declare that it was predictable and alright. Paula is a little weird declaring its that middle, beginning and end, and she’ll see him in the finals. Simon says with that song David Cook wins the night.

Like I said, this is supposed to be David vs David. Syesha is gone. I mean, I’m pretty sure she’s been in the bottom 3 since the top 12, yet she has outplayed, outwitted, outlasted the rest (sorry, wrong show). She’s gone tomorrow.

Last week was a rough week.   Words just fail to come through my fingers when I sit to blog.  Saturday was the worst.  I don’t know what happened, just that I had a total emotional meltdown.  Sunday was just what the doctor ordered.  From the surprise cards (I was not expecting a thing. The cards were sweet, thank you DH), to the kids, who pulled off the ultimate Mother’s Day gift by not fighting all day!  Also, no one got hurt, BONUS!  After a rough day Saturday that resulted in several new bumps, bruises, and cuts, Sunday was a welcome change.

So thank you husband.  Thank you kids.  Yesterday was the closest to a vacation I’ve had in years.  And boy did I need it.

May is shaping up to be uber-busy.  I’m still having trouble with finding the words I want to use to communicate.  So if I’m even quieter for a while, it’s just because I’ve unplugged for a bit to get a grip on life and find my words again.

My mom knows how much I love her.  I call her and we talk almost every night.  But this woman…

Without her, I wouldn’t have the wonderful man I call “husband.”  Without her love and devotion to her own little ones, I wouldn’t have the man I call “Father of my children.”

Without him, I wouldn’t have three blessings of my own to give me reason to celebrate this day.  Thanks MomY.  Because of your hard work, and devotion, I now have a prince of a husband to pamper me on this day.  Thanks.

May 9 is Military Spouse Appreciation Day.

May 11 is Mother’s Day.

The annual “What is A SAHM worth?” survey says this year I’m worth $117,000.00.

Throw in the annual salary of a teacher, lowball est at $47,000. (That’s actually from the ‘04-’05 school year.)

That brings my imaginary net worth grand total up to $164,000.00 a year.  I’ll take that in 10’s and 20’s please.

But seriously… I couldn’t do what I do without the love and support of my dear husband.  Love ya babe. Con todo mi corazon.
