The card - stamped image is from SU.  Butterfly is Martha Stewart punch.  Colors are gumball, midnight and daffodil. 

I guess there weren't many people around here who wanted a chance to become the next  American Idol - there was maybe a total of 30 people that showed up for the tryouts yesterday.  So there wasn't much excitement to see from my window. 

(ETA:  the newspaper this morning said they had 200 people tryout - they were hiding somewhere that I couldn't see I guess .....)

Today I have a couple of errands to do and then I will need to get stuff ready for class tonight.

Have a great day!

Ah....Monday.... have no idea where to start today....maybe I'll just hang out and watch the happenings in the park.  They're having tryouts for American Idol today and I can catch the action from my window.  Starting time is 3 hours from now and there is already a line forming..... um.....maybe I better try to get some work done on class projects - that might be more productive :)

Have a great day!
