What's on my Happy List?

Okay, you would have thought someone had died had you witnessed my life post American Idol. I've been on such a natural high for weeks with all this American Idol hoopla that now that it is over, I seriously had to go through some type of grieving process to recuperate. Not sure that I've made a complete recovery yet, (because seriously what am I going to do on Tuesday nights now?) but I just had to record some of my favorite memories of this amazing 4 month, once in a lifetime journey that David Archuleta has taken me on.
*David Archuleta's voice and smile*memories of voting faithfully every Tuesday night for months** hob nobbing with people that know David the best at the three At&t go-phone texting parties I attended** a record 97 million votes casted on finale week** using multiple methods of voting all at the same time...two go phones in hand, my cell phone, my land line phone, and the international computer voting feature through Gizmo**spending hours at Murray High programing the new go-phones that had been donated from fans all over the country**my daily involvement with the David Archuleta fanblast website* my e-family** the Archies and Golden Archies** Brett Kane Hales and Dar Seacrest** O.D.D.
