DWTS Results ~ this too shall pass

Some of you, many of you, maybe none of you know what a huge fan of Beverly Hills, 90210 I am. For those of you that might be a little lost this is a show that I watched and recorded religiously for 10 years!!! In fact, until we moved in with the in-laws I had every single episode recorded. But, we had no room for 10 years worth of video tapes (but luckily, it is on DVD now...hint hint Santa...just kidding, sort of). One of my new addictions is Dancing with the Stars. I was especially excited when Jennie Garth was going to be on the show. Jennie played Kelly Taylor - the girl who had it all on 90210 and was my favorite on the show! Throughout the last 9 weeks, I couldn't wait to see her dance. I felt like a close friend was dancing and I was at home cheering her on. I phoned in my votes and voted online each week. The last few weeks Shane would laugh at me while watching with me (yes, you can laugh at him for actually watching with me) because he would say that every time Jennie danced I had the nerdiest grin on my face. What can I say? I was so excited for her. She was so enthusiastic about everything and her family was always there to support her.

Apparently our votes weren't enough because Jennie and Derek were sent home tonight. Although the others are also great dancers they aren't Jennie...and Derek. With a little tear rolling down my face, I said to myself "this too shall pass." So, for those of you who didn't know what a nerd I am, you now do. For those of you who know what a nerd I am, thank you for still loving me (I hope)!

Sadly I can relate to this post. I didn't tape every episode, however I made sure to see each one in primetime and reruns. I was sad when Steve got sent home last season and equally sad when Kelly went home last week. I feel for you Erica!
