Okay. I'm in tears. The finale of The Amazing Race had me ready to spring from my wheelchair and jump around the living room. I didn't. But I *really* needed some other way to express how happy I was, besides the tears, and the pumping of the arms in the air, and clapping my hands. I believe there was a very white bread "Boo-yah!" shouted at one point and some kind of weird gyrating dance.

But, what do you expect from someone who can't walk.

Uchenna and Joyce. Oh. I just love them. I want to have them over to dinner. I want to rub Joyce's head.

Ron and Kelly. Well, they placed higher than they deserved to. I hope they've watched these episodes and realized that they *so* do not belong together. The rest of America knows it. Just realize it soon, please. No offense to anyone who may be reading this, but Ron is the typical jackass officer, always ready to talk about everything he's done and how he is far superior to the normal human being. And Kelly. Well, I think she's been a horrific example of Christianity. I hope it takes more than a week for her to live down her comment about Ron managing to get out of the Army by being a POW.

Uchenna and Joyce. Yes. I know I already talked about them, but I was just so happy that they stayed to earn money to pay for their cab. It would have been so easy to just run.

Rob and Amber. I've really enjoyed watching them play because they played well. And hard. Although, not always honestly. But they knew how to play. And if Uchenna and Joyce weren't just an awesome couple with a great reason to want some money, then I would have been wholeheartedly routing for them.

Okay, I can take the percocet I've been holding off on and climb into our new bed. Did I mention Doug bought us a Select Comfort? It's the best choice we've made in a while, and certainly the only large bed that will fit up our dwarfy new stairs, since it comes in several pieces that you assemble in your bedroom.

Night!
