first and foremost, nicole did such an amazing job last night! loved loved loved the dress, loved that her earrings matched her suit, and damn, that was quite a dance! (see youtube below if you missed it.)
i was watching the pageant about 30 minutes delayed when i thought to pick up the phone to call my mom to see if she was watching. (nicole's met my parents on a few occasions both down here in california and up in washington.) i noticed i'd already missed 2 calls from her and she'd left 2 messages. without thinking, i listened to them and heard my mom raving about "nicole's bird dance!" doh. so from the get-go i knew nicole made at least top 10. i had to turn my phone off after that knowing that nicole had an excellent shot at winning and didn't want my mom or another friend tuning in live to call to revel in her victory and spoil the surprise. (selfish, i know, but, hey! i had 3 other viewers with me to consider!)
...but, .alas, twas not to be. :(
what a run it was, though! congratulations, nicole!
still not sure how she didn't make it to the final round with this routine. the other girls were sooo boring and ho-hum with their off-pitch singing! (we all took bathroom breaks during the singing bits. even shrek's little niece who was watching with us tuned out during the singing. ha!)
