American Idol kicked off the 8th season tonight. Was a decent show. I have not been a fan of the early shows in the past seasons, but I think they focused more on the real talent and less on the oddballs, and that made the show tonight much more entertaining for me. I like the oilman already.

Been on the couch with bronchial infection for the past couple days. Blah. I hate being confined. But if I am going to get this under control, I gotta do it. Maybe tomorrow will be a better day. I have a lunch date with Martha, a friend from church, which I should be able to do. But I might have to give up the morning Bible study. We'll see what kind of night it is.

Got the family photos back that we had taken on Christmas Eve. Turned out pretty good given there are 11 people in the pics, and we did it in about 15 minutes.
