Don't bet on a Mormon

Mitt Romney, Marie Osmond, and now "Archie," have all let me down. I should have known better than to bet my blog that he would win, especially since, being a Mormon myself, gambling is against the tenets of my religion.

I think what hurts the most is that I wrong. Read it again. I was wrong. I'm never wrong when it comes to A.I, except this time. I pride myself on being able to predict who will stay and who will go home. The producers set us up for an upset and I fell for it. I'm humiliated.

That's where I have been for the past few days, wallowing in my own humiliation. I could care less which David won, I just wanted to be right.

Thanks for all the nice comments. It's nice to know that if I actually had the guts to pull the plug, I would be missed. So, all of you who bet I would be back, you are right!

This is one Mormon you can bet on.

  2. Annie,
    I'd bet on you if you were agnostic.
    Well, that's probably not true.....maybe a Hindu is as far as I'd go bettin' on you.
    I was a prayin' and a prayin' you wouldn't really go.
    So, let me be the first to say:
    Welcome Back, you rock my world.
    A little bit.

  13. Patience is a virtue. So glad you are over the trauma of not getting quite right. Good thing you are brave, healthy, and sane enough to realize that enough bloggers know how to find you and bring you back;)

  14. Well, thank you! Now I know why I never win! Especially at life. This explains SO much. I had never really thought about it until now other than to whine that nothing ever works out for me. Now I know.

  19. I bet on Julianne Hugh twice and it payed off. I don't know how good of a Mormon she is with her neck lines down to there and her skirts up to there.

  22. It's almost as though God is telling us Mormons something. We should all know better than to make these bets...we are depriving our own people of a their wins!

    No more bets...we will get it next time.
