American Idol ROCKS!!!!!!

Hi Everyone from Los Angeles
A quick update to tell you we were in the audience of American Idol last night and it was an incredible experience...Stephanie and I both LOVE Blake...He is gutsy, creative and talented. All the contestants last night were great and the energy in the audience was amazing. Right after the performance we went to the theatre to see the opening of Steph's new play "Dreaming in Castellano"...It was fantastic and I'm going back tonight to see it again with my son, Tommy who is driving up from SanDiego. Tomorrow we will go to a taping of "Ellen" .
It's weird to be off the boat after almost 8 months on board. The bed does not move and I can go to the bathroom with abandon (with apologies to Cheryl Crow I have used more than one piece of toilet paper and not worried about where it goes when I flush. We went to Trader Joes where I stocked up on all our favorites!!!Tom and Kodi are anchored out right off the old fort in St Augustine, probably enjoying the solitude...I miss him, but its fun to be here with the kids.
