I have a very deep dark secret....

I have a crush on Simon Cowell.

There. I said it.

I have always liked a man who says exactly what he thinks. Those of you who know Danny, know I got one. (Too bad he couldn't have been one who gets paid millions of dollars for it though!! Well, at least he also looks good in a t-shirt.)

If you don't know Simon, he is the usually rude (but almost always right) judge of American Idol. I sure am glad that American Idol has started because football season is winding down (2 more games-Go Seahawks!) and I have something new to get excited about.

The first few weeks are the shows where they show the tryouts. The best. The worst. And sometimes, the Ugly!!! They are funny to watch. But for me, I like it when they start the real singing. I love to hear them grow and stretch their talents. And, yes, I even vote.
