Amores Verdaderos #55 Fri 1/25/13 Amores The Musical!!!
Good Evening Ladies and Gentleman. I love musicals and thought the other night, what if Amores were a musical? What type of music would it have? Operatic, R&B, Pop, Rap, Beatbox, Golden Oldies? Well you are in for a treat amigos y amigas. I have crafted a sort of musical Amores this evening. Hey, if they can make the Passion Pit a comedy play, that would be Abismo de Pasion, Amores can be a muscial, jus' sayin'. Read on amigos y amigas to see what I mean.
Bonjour, Bonjour, It's Jean Marie Bonjour, Bonjour from Disney's Beauty and the Beast
Jean Marie and his vaca product and Tomi telling him never to mention the name Longoria in this house!
Hang Down Your Head, Big Angel, Hang Down Your Head and Cry: From the Kingston Trio
The Angel has that cross ripped right off his neck by the Furry Fornicator (Thanks NovelMaven), Tomi and Jean Marie Bonjour are witnesses.
Is This the Little Girl I Carried? Seedlings Turn Overnight To Sunflowers: Sunrise, Sunset from Fiddler on the Roof
Pauwhiner leaves the room as our Wild Child informs her Mama she ain't leavin' her Papi not now, not ever. Where will she live when Mama goes??? Oh, The Balvanera Manse of course! Thunderclap and incredulity from Cris.
Now It's Too Late Baby, Now It's Too Late, Though We Really Did Try to Make It: It's Too Late by Carole King
Furry Fornicator gives Ms Vikki grief about giving that family heirloom cross to the Angel. Give it back to the Angel she says and apologize while you're at it. He won't lower himself to apologize to a servant, doncha know! Ms Vikki is being ridiculous and Ms Vikki doesn't want to live with Fornicator anymore. Shooting daggers at each other, Ms Vikki says the Furry Fornicator is ridiculous cause she didn't cause a scene when she caught the Fornicator boinking that red-haired woman. So, she doesn't want to live with Fornicator anymore y punto. Nikki, listening at keyholes, hears the whole thing and cries. We'll get back to her.
Our Love's In Jeopardy, Baby: from the Greg Kihn Band
Jean Marie, and Tomi are in the kitchen talking about the ripping off of the cross from the neck of the Angel, when Cris comes in looking for said Angel. She has her crazy on, jus' sayin'.
Workin' For a Livin': by Huey Lewis and the News
The Furry Fornicator is on the way to work and poor Dances has to tap dance around his fugly mood. Fornicator is way rude to our Dances. Dances thinks to himself, obvio Ms Vikki has not forgiven this waste of space.

Lean On Me, When You're Not Strong, and I'll Be Your Friend, I'll Help You Carry On, and I Am Woman, Hear Me Roar (Thanks Floridia) Lean on Me, by Bill Withers, I am Woman by Helen Reddy
Ms Vikki and the Angel are in the study and Ms Vikki apologizes for the Fornicator ripping that cross right off his neck and by the by Ms Vikki wants him to keep that cross even after that contretemps. Oh, so sad, the clasp is broken, but hey she'll have it fixed and give it back to him. He can't believe she still wants him to keep it. Now he's got a problem he needs to talk about. It's Cris of course, and she wants to go to Alamos, Sonora far, far, away from here and wants to drag, er, take Lili with her, but the Wild Child doesn't want to go. Ms Vikki says she won't change her mind, course not. His marriage is on the Highway to Hell, he doesn't know how it got there, and his one ray of Sunshine, Cris is trying to take away. He couldn't deal with that. Now he wants a favor. Can Lili live here while he tries to figure out what to do? Sure, the house is huge, plenty of room, but hey what about the wifey pooh, won't that pith, er, cause more problems???? Honestly , the Angel is very confused, doesn't know how to fix the problem, loves his wifey pooh so much, she's jealous and hard headed, won't listen, but doesn't want to lose her, or his little Sunshine, cause Ain't no sunshine when she's gone, and this house just ain't no home, anytime she goes away. (Ain't No Sunshine, by Bill Withers) Ms Vikki feels bad and feels responsible for all his troubles, he doesn't agree. Not her fault. She feels so bad for his sorrow and pain, both are crying, and they hug, as good friends do, when one is in pain. So right in the middle of this crying scene, comes, we all in Viewerville, except maybe some of us, are cringing as Tomi and Crazy Cris, come in and Cris accuses them of celebrating cause Cris is goin'. Cris is screeching keep celebrating don't try to stop, cause you are cheatin, liars and I see what is right in front of me. Well, it's not as it seems, yeah right, from Cris. The Angel is tellin' her she is confused, things are not as they seem. Ms Vikki wants to leave them alone, to discuss this, and tries to go with Tomi but Crazy Cris yanks her around and tells her she ain't goin' anywhere. Crazy Cris says Ms Vikki isn't satisfied with stealin' her husband, now she's stealin' the Sunshine too. Stopping here to have a drinky pooh, a nice big gulp of Baileys. Ok, back now, Crazy Cris ain't gonna let that happen, no siree bob, she ain't. Crazy Cris ain't allowing Ms Vikki to steal her little Sunshine, also Cris continues to slap the Angel around and yank him around too, as he tells her to cool her jets. Crazy Cris won't "allow" her little Sunshine to move into this house, y punto. What happens now you ask, we'll get back to them. Ok, so now back to the contretemps in the study, where Tomi is staunchly staying by the door to make sure things are ok. So now the Crazy is telling Ms Vikki she is not scared of Ms Vikki or her power or her big Cheesy Name and hey she ain't stealing her Sunshine, never happen, she is leaving the Big Dirty City with her Sunshine as she smacks the crap outta the Angel again and that goes for Ms Vikki too. Crazy storms outta there. Ms Vikki advises the Angel to go after the Crazy, Ms Vikki doesn't want her leaving this way. Angel, however ain't goin. The Crazy is stubborn, won't listen, she's blind as well as deaf, didn't Ms Vikki just see her???? Tomi is still in the doorway, and tells the Angel ,she is gonna handle it and tells him to calm down, she goes.

Oh, looky here, it is Pauwhiner and Gilda in an outdoor cafe, talking about how guilty Pauwhiner is feeling bout Cris. Gilda reminds Pauwhiner about how she got rid of that letter from Anibal about the truth about Cris. And now Pauwhiner is scared for Cris to go to her Mama's cause that could come out, doncha know. Gilda reminds her that hey, Candelaria didn't have the avacadoes to tell Cris already, about her parentage, what makes you think she'll do it now? Cause Cris is CRAZY, er, has a short fuse and if Cande finds out that Angel is workin' for Ms Vikki Balvanera and her lover too boot, well, then Cande will spill the frijoles. Well Pauwhiner is just paranoid, Gilda says so!!!! So Gilda tells her hey, would a mother inflict unbearable pain on her daughter by telling her, her lover's legitimate daughter is her sister!!!! Think about it!!! But Pawhiner just won't let it go. Pauwhiner, has forgotten, that life is a carousel, dancing 'round the mirrors we go up and down, so let the music take away the hurt you've caused and know so well, let it go cause, You can't turn back the hands of time... Gilda tells her hey, this will go away, like a little rainstorm and things will be back to normal, you'll see. Pauwhiner, hey, not so much, I caused the Crazy to lose her home, and her hubby and she can't have any peace if she has ruined her life. Too little, too late, jus' sayin'. We'll get back to them.

The Furry Fornicator and Anyballs are in the foreground and Dances and Betty are just a gazin' at each other, and Dances has given her something for her and one for Guillo, did she enjoy herself and can they do this again sometime, when Anyballs has had enough of the ringing off the hook phone, and tells Betty to answer it. She apologizes and does so, while The Fornicator and Anyballs go to the Fornicator's office. Betty answers the phone and it's Adriana, but she doesn't tell Betty who she is. She is asking for Ms Vikki, who won't be in today. Want to leave a message? Nah, not so much, will catch up with her later, click.

Tomi has caught up with the Crazy and tells her she doesn't want her to leave in this state, she might get hit by a truck, doncha know, so stay have some tea, you'll be doing your liver a favor, cause with this fury of yours, you are damaging your liver, have a seat! Tomi goes to the kitchen and the Crazy thinks that Tomi gives good advice and hopes she gets married, cause then Tomi can paint her own hubby in his naked as a jaybirdness!!!

Ms Vikki and Angel are still in the study and discussing what the hell just happened. Que Lastima! The Angel is still apologizing to this refined, genteel woman about the Crazy One! Ms Vikki cannot understand how the Crazy so misconstrued their working relationship. Ms Vikki was only trying to help the Crazy, she can't understand how it got, well, so crazy. Angel doesn't get it either. One minute they were sooo in lurvvve, the next the Crazy is accusing him of cheating, and with Ms Vikki to boot. The Crazy has no trust anymore. Ms Vikki gives the Angel some wise advice. Don't let work interfere in your marriage. He says he won't but only he,Dios, and Ms Vikki know the truth. He would never cheat, couldn't even fathom it, is always faithful and may he go straight to hell, do not pass go, do not collect two hundred pesos, if he is lyin'. Ms Vikki doesn't want him to lose his Crazy or little Sunshine, doncha know. Ms Vikki feels the Angel's marriage should last forever, and this time The Crazy actually hears these things, Dios' name must have opened her deaf ears cause she actually hears them talking and the eyes of the blind have opened and are crying to the Virgincita, about what have I done, and now I'm Cryin' Over You, From Crying, by Roy Orbison
That's What Friends Are For: by Dionne Warwick and Friends
The Whiny Pauwhiner, she's paranoid, Gilda said so! is takin' her leave of Gilda. Gilda reminds her that as soon as the Crazy leaves her apartmento things will get back to normal. Pauwhiner is surprisingly hating to see the Crazy go cause she loves her doncha know. It's a shame the Crazy is gonna live with her Mama cause if she knew who her real daddy was, she'd be havin' a different life. Yeah, so the Crazy would know she is rich, Gilda says, but would that change anything? Are you lookin' to redeem yourself to Anyballs to tell him about his "new Daughter"? Nah, not so much. Gilda advises Pauwhiner not to be the redeemer, cause she'll end up crucified!

I do feel very sorry for her, cause her stupid parents didn't let on, what was goin' on, so the poor girl suffers in silence and tears.
Somethin's Going Wrong Round Here: by Joe Jackson
Jean Marie is chopping veggies in the kitchen, ruminating about the wrongs round here with Angel and the Mr And Mrs of the Manse, when he looks at Guzman, Francisco and wants the chimse already. Guzman, Franciso doesn't know and even if he did, he wouldn't tell Bonjour, Jean Marie cause it's Rule #99 of the BodyGuard Code, no chisme!!!

The Furry Fornicator and Anyballs are in the Fornicator's office. Now I have to say here, I hope the cleaning crew used bleach and Febreeze in that office, cause it should be stinkin' to high heaven by now, what with the stench of sweaty, monkey sex, jus' sayin'. Anyballs is sooo disappointed in the Fornicator. The Fornicator's actions of being a manger of the company and dealing with Anyball's daughter leave a lot to be desired. Well, we all in Viewerville know where the Fornicator's desires really lie, jus' sayin'. Isn't there someone in the company that is creative to ya know do some bidness so the company doesn't tank, while Ms Vikki is insisting on divorcing ole Fornicator? Anyballs thinks the Fornicator is now brain dead (Thanks Marta) Betty picks this time to buzz Anyballs for some accounting accounts and he goes. Ole Fornicator, does he crack that whip, to find someone creative, well, nopis, he picks up the paper and opens it and the first page he sees says "Top Model Attempts Suicide", Ha! So the Fornicator thought bubbles about the doc tellin' him that people that try once to kill themselves, will try again. And the Fornicator thinks this was all swept under the rug, sucks to be him! Now everyone knows.
Fifty Ways To Leave Your Lover, Makin' New Plans Stan, You Don't Need to Be Corderoy, You Just Listen To Me: by Paul Simon
Antonio has come by to see Anyballs to find out why he hasn't been to the Club lately. Well, it seems Pauwhiner has left him and now Ms Vikki is givin' him trouble. Ms Vikki's marriage not goin' well and there is the other daughter, ya know the terminal disease, is what Antonio thinks Anyballs thinks of Adri. Anyballs doesn't want Antonio to be his censor doncha know. Well Antonio says your daughter is in Mexico now, how bout seeing her. Nah, want me to call the cops and have them handcuff her just to see me. Nothin' doin'. Antonio thinks Anyballs is now a cantankerous devil. You don't know the half of it. Antonio wants to know why Adri decided to come back now? Diggin up the past, maybe? Who knows. She came back, didn't come for a little visit, and if she does keep your trap shut, is what Anyballs says to Antonio. Adri just wants Anyballs to feel like an wretch. So Adri is like a bad memory??? Now Antonio wants to know why Anyballs doesn't even think of his own granddaughter, one that has his own blood, yeah well she is a bastarda and has the blood of the one that fathered her too. Oh, that word, hate that, bastarda.
Llame de la Sangre (This one is for NovelaMaven)
So little Ms Sunshine has come to the Balvanera manse, and security is lettin her in, his name is Goyo. She gets in and in her wake is, wait for it, Adri, they don't see each other, but there is a sense of something in the air, a feeling perhaps of having passed this way before. Adri stares at the gate.
I'm Sorry, So Sorry, and Nobody's Perfect: Nobody's Perfect by Madonna
So the Crazy has calmed down now and is sitting with Pauwhiner and telling her what she overheard at the Balvanera Manse between her ever lovin' hubby and Ms Vikki, how they didnt' do her wrong and she was only going to return the keys to the apartmento when she over heard this dishing of feelings, doncha know. The Crazy was sooo wrongggg! Pauwhiner is sooo upset and blames herself, right where the blame should lie, jus' sayin'. Pauwhiner thinks maybe she told Cris about Ms Vikki in the bed, to get back at Ms Vikki for keeping Anyballs away from her (See I told you! Pauwhiner and revenge, who knew!!!!). So The Crazy finally admits she was wrong, that Lili and Angel were so right, she should never have said the things she said or thought the things she thought and hey, it's not Pauwhiner's fault, she just gave the deluded chisme, er vision she had. And besides Pauwhiner can go tell Angel her part in this, but Crazy ain't havin' it. It's her fault doncha know, she's ashamed about what she said to Ms Vikki, not trusting her hubby enough to listen and her little Ray of Sunshine either. The Crazy cries!
You're The One That I Want, Wooo Hooo, Yeah, You're the One That I Want, You're All I Need, Oh, Yes, Indeed: from the movie and Broadway Play "Grease"
So Little Ms Sunshine is inside Balvanera Manse lookin' for Daddy-O when Guzmi comes across her, she has been crying and he can see that. He greets her by saying she is the keeper of the planet kingdom at Balvanera. He tells Lili that Daddy-O is probably in his room and hey what's with the tears. She says she has been having some tears, but sometimes ya gotta cry to let it out. So now Guzmi wants to know if it's a boyfriend that has hurt her, cause if that is the case, he'll have to deal with Guzmi. This makes Lili laugh and she says boyfriend, what boyfriend???? Guzmi thinks it was worth that remark to see her smile and she goes off to find Daddy-O.
We are Family, I Got My Little Sissy With Me: We Are Family by Sister Sledge
So Ms Vikki is in with her laptop in her room now, writing more romantic stuff, it's the same as the poem and the painting, so I'll spare you the details, when Tomi comes in all excited and tells Ms Vikki that someone is here to see her. It's Adriana of course, and Ms Vikki and Adri have a big ole hug and wipe tears from their eyes. Adri wants to know what is up with all the security guards and bodyguards, Ms Vikki was never like this. Ms Vikki tells her it's hard to have them around, especially for Nikki, but they had to get them cause of the continuing threat and Ms Vikki has almost been kidnapped a couple of times already. But hey, enough about me, what about you? I want you to spill everything is what Ms Vikki tells her and why did she disappear after the accident??? Hmmmm? Ms Vikki says she came to be by her side, she disappeared and Ms Vikki was worried sick. Well, Adri is scared, doesn't know who to trust, doesn't know how to get to the truth, doesn't know who to beleive, but she adores Ms Vikki and loves her so much. Back at ya, says Ms Vikki and then the beauty compliments come too. Tomi is so happy to see them together again and gets a big hug too. So now Ms Vikki wants to know about Adri's job, her love life, etc. Well, Adri ain't got no love life. Anyballs took that away from her. Adri only fell in always and forever, only once. We finally find out the guy's name it was Vicente Celorio, she was only sixteen, but she fell in love with him then and will never love another, and bad Anyballs took him away from her. How she has suffered since then and it's all Anyballs' fault, he caused this suffering.
Papa Don't Preach, I'm In Trouble Deep, Papa Don't Preach, Cause I Made Up My Mind, I'm Keepin' My Bebe: Papa Don't Preach by Madonna
So Anyballs' conscience hasn't let up, that would be Antonio who can't fathom why Anyballs continues to make his daughter, Adri, suffer by not letting her know her bebe is alive. The way Anyballs sees it it would have been cruel to ruin his daughter's life. But Adri has the right to know Antonio tells him, it's only fair. Anyballs ain't havin' it, no siree bob, he'll never tell, he'll take it to the grave, this evil lie he done told. Antonio wants him to think about that. And he wants a promise from Anyballs that he'll tell this secret. Don't count on it, Anyballs tells him. What does it matter to him, what happened to the Bastarda, anyhoo. Anyballs is channeling Rodrigo Montes de Loco, or maybe he is a distant ancestor, jus' sayin'.
When I Find Myself In Times of Trouble, Mother Mary Comes to Me, Speaking Words of Wisdom, Let It Be: Let It Be by Paul McCartney
Angel is telling his ray of Sunshine that it isn't Ms Vikki that doesn't want her to live here, it's just that her Crazy Mama needs her now. Lili isn't down with that, Crazy Mama was wrong, her Daddy was right, and she will miss the one as well as the other. Daddy never cheated. Angel tells her not to be like that, respect your Mama, he tells her. She needs her little ray of Sunshine right now, more than eva. You need to help her and give her advice. What will you do she asks? Well, pray for a miracle. Little Ms Sunshine will pray to the Virginicita for a miracle to open Crazy Mama's heart. So now they both pray to the Virgincita about not separating them or abandoning them.
It's Over and Done, But the Heartache Lives on Inside: Emotion by the Bee Gees
So now back to Adri, Ms Vikki and Tomi, and Adri is telling them that she has buried her bebe Lucia and Vincente deep in her heart. She wants Ms Vikki to understand this and Ms Vikki thinks it is way sad to have this type of feeling. Adri is really angry and says she lost Lucia due to Anyballs. Ms Vikki wants her to calm down. And she reminds Adri that Lucia was stillborn. Nah, not so much Adri says. Adri has the feeling that Lucia is alive and well and she knows Ms Vikki isn't gettin' it, and that the pain of losing Lucia must make her feel this way, but no that ain't it. Ms Vikki says, Imagine, Lucia would be eighteen years old now. Adri just knows she is alive but is looking for good solid proof and does Ms Vikki get it now? Yeah, she gets it. Tomi has alot to do so she is gonna go and Ms Vikki gives the cross necklace to Tomi to drop off at the jewelers to get fixed. Tomi gives Adri a hug and goes. Vikki raves about Tomi being so great to run the house and takes care of Nikki too, Adri thinks Tomi is way nice to do all that. Now Vikki wants Adri to stay there, and will have a room prepared for her. Nopis, Adri is not layin' her head in no Balverna home, owned by Anyballs, it's just too much. Vikki tries to make her see reason about how Anyballs made mistakes with everyone, including herself and their Mama. Anyballs is their Papa, doncha know. Well, enough of him, change of subject, how's the family, my neice???? Honkey dorey, doncha know. Vikki doesn't let on to Adri how things really are, and goes on about Nikki and her sign on the Chinese Horoscope which Tomi follows and they have a big laugh over crazy Tomi and the horoscope.

So Nikki is in her room and is shoving those candy wrappers under her bed and has called her "BFF" Kendho, who is driving. Nikki is telling her bout the bad mojo in the house and Nikki just had to call someone she trusts, bad choice that! What's wrong Kendho wants to know, she'll "help" anyway she can, doncha know. Well ole Papi is a cheater, cause Mami caught him boinkin' some woman in his office, oh the horror! Probrecita, Vikki says Kendho, as if, and Nikki says the lyin', cheatin' Fornicator is DEAD TO HER!!! Well, Kendho doesn't think this is so bad, but Nikki is QTH, it is for her, cause the Fornicator kept preachin' about decency and honesty and look what he done did!!!! And por Dios, who knows who is having sex with now!!!!! Kendho is just a laughing to her self in the car, while Nikki cries. Probrecita, if only she knew, Que Pena.
Avances:
Cris and Angel get their smoochies on, while Vikki watches.

"Hang Down Your Head, Big Angel, Hang Down Your Head and Cry"
"Don't kill the recapper, but Nikki is so distraught...and gets a round big plastic sleeve of chocolates and chows them down…”
I thought JA and Cris were down for the count, but now she realizes Angel didn't cheat (physically). The big guy was already crying when she entered the room so Cris really Did a Bad Bad Thing (shout out to Chris Isaak) whacking him like that. I so agree with an earlier comment that Monika Sanchez's "action" scenes look real, not choreographed. I would love to see the outtakes from that scene.
Looking forward to seeing all three sisters together and Lili meeting Adriana. No idea what will happen next but I get the feeling Cris and Adriana will hit it off.
Nikki thinks of KendraHo as her best buddy. Yuck. I was hoping Nikki would flashback to bumping into her dad at KendraHo’s place.
Niecie- I too thought it was over for Cris and the Angel, but some well-timed eavesdropping has given them hope. Yay! Now, Cris actually has to let JA know she knows he didn't sleep with Vicky.
But the growing emotional connection/affair between the two still needs to be addressed. I guess they'll save that issue for another round of conflicts.
I was so happy to see Adri visit Vicky. Now I really want to see Adri and Lili interact. It was so funny how they kept banging us over the head with the possibility (certainty?) that Lili is Lucia. Everytime Anibal would say Bastarda, they'd cut to Lili in the next scene. Alright, we get it writers! :)
♫You're The One That I Want, Wooo Hooo...♫
Thanks.
Vivi,
"Everytime Anibal would say Bastarda, they'd cut to Lili in the next scene."
Sipis... I'm changing my vote from Nicole to Ratiana. OK?
Wow, what a surprise last night...warmer feelings toward Crissy anyone?
Carlos
I'm glad that although they showed Nikki scarfing down the chocolates (still gross), they didn't follow it up with the obligatory head-inside-the-toilet scene. They finally get it that WE get it without being hit over the head with these "ewww" scenes.
If Salsero isn't careful, he's going to get Bea fired. Stop distracting her, Salsa Dude.
Cris comes in looking for Angel and "she has her crazy on". Oh yeah. Great description. I laughed so hard at this entrance, my Baileys was coming out of my nose.
"Cris accuses them of celebrating cause Cris is goin'." So her man is crying like a little girl and she thinks he's celebrating??? The woman is not just crazy, she is, as Marta told us, blind. A normal person would come on this scene and ask WHO DIED?
"Miss Vicki is writing more romantic stuff ... it's the same as the poem and the painting" Hahaha. Yes, thanks for sparing us.
But my favorite line is this throwaway: "She reminds Adria that Lucía was stillborn. Nah, not so much Adri says."
My question: Now that Cris has Seen the Light, is it ok for the piano to fall on her head?
True, Vivi. However a few episodes back they kept cutting back and forth from Lucía's grave to Nikki at the hacienda. Then the next night they knocked us off our pins by having Vicky say that Nikki was already born when Adriana was pregnant.
These writers are as tricky as Nikki! But I agree. This time, I think they mean it.
*** NM and Carlos --- How do you put the music notes in your post???
I doubt Calm Cristina will last long and Crazy Cris will be back.
It will be interesting to see how the Cristina character plays out.
Hormonally imbalanced?
Bipolar disorder?
Just plain BSC?
Paula has a way out regarding Cande's letter to Anibal; just say it never arrived, lost mail. Sheesh. Paula's such a liar already, what's another lie to her???
"Rule #99 of the BodyGuard Code, no chisme!" --- LOL
So, now we have the name of Adri's old boyfriend --- Vincente. I wonder if he'll blow into town?
I can't wait to watch my recording of this episode. :-)
ITA agree with the cutaways to Lili, possible relationship noted and assimilated, thank you. As well as appreciating the missing barf scene (see last three words of previous sentence).
It was sad that Nikki called Kendra for support. However, calling anybody for support is smarter than the binge eating; too bad she isn't calling first as a coping mechanism rather than after binging.
I was so relieved when Cris heard the truth about the physical affair. I fully expected her to just hear the tail end of more Vikki/JA-speak, which is to say, sounds incriminating even though it's totally innocent and the type of thing any man and woman married to other people would say to each other.

Click on symbols.
Scroll down to what you want.
When you click on the symbol, it shows up in your text.
Then you have to copy and paste your comment from Word into Blogger.

I think if you just click on it it's copied. I was confused by that page at first because the symbol would highlight yellow for a moment and then fade but when I clicked on paste...there it was. There are a bunch of sites like that. I'm using a Mac laptop so it might be different for you.
Of course we can just copy each others stuff (♪I'm so excited♪) as well.
Carlos
Carlos - I see the yellow backlit box when I click, but when I try to paste into a WORD document, there is nothing. Ah, well, just being able to do music notes and other basics is enough.
Love the song titles.
Mils gracias!

There's thousands more. I firmly believe that Chris has seen the light and realizes the error of her ways. I'm with her ALL THE WAY.
Niecie in MD: Liked your shout out to Cris Isaak one of my favs. Maybe they will do a blooper montage on YouTube for this TN. I have seen several of other TN'S there. They are quite funny.I have never seen Monica Sanchez in anything before, she is quite good. I hope Nikki really thinks about seeing her Snappy Papi at Kendho's. Kendho is so NOT good for Nikki.
Vivi: I was glad that Adri finally came out of the woodwork. I too want to see how she interacts with Lili. Since their almost two encounters so far, they have had the oddest looks on their faces and I didn't realize about the scenes you mentioned. I'm with you and Neice about JA/Cris I thought for sure they were done too. We'll have to wait and see I guess. I want to see how Cris fixes what she did.
Carlos: I am willing to give Cris a chance as long as she loses the Crazy, jus' sayin' lol.
Anon 3:21: I too am glad Nikki kept those chocolates down. I am hoping that she grows up a bit now, gets help for this bulimia, and does something better with her life and stops all the games. Too much to hope for?
NovelaMaven: I kinda got the idea for this style recap from your famous "Fly on the Wall" Passion Pit Recap, lol. That was so brilliant. I was laughing so hard reading that recap. Sorry about the Bailey's snorting lol. I like your idea for the piano for Cris too, lol.
TN4ever: I agree about Nikki, I wish she had called someone, anyone, other than Kendho before the binging. But at least she didn't hurl. That I was really thankful for. Maybe with the avances, that yellow car, she will finally get some help.
Sara: Thank you so much and so happy to see you hear. lol.
Floridia: Liked your song choices too. I may use some of them in a future recap. The ones you listed so fit the characters. About Cris, I hope she stops the Crazy, jus' sayin'. Then I think I could go back to likin' her.
PS anyone know how to avoid the "prove you aren't a robot" step of commenting?
It always amazes me how often someone is listening to important conversations behind a partially open door in these novelas. Well, this time it was a good thing.
No, I'm not going to go on another long rant about being in Cris's corner. Everyone knows that I was from the begining and I still am. But I must say that things are starting to look up for the Arriga family. YEAH!!!
Have the writers been playing with us? It was looking like JA and Vikki for sure--still might be. Who knows? But at least for now---
Another mystery. I always read everyone's comments and it looks to me like many in Amores land are starting to think that there is a BIG connection between Adria and Little Orchid Wise Child---are the writers playing with us on this one also?
Floridia---I'm still with you on Cris and your song list was great also---How do you guys remember so many old songs?
Sara---Sometimes the robot thing drives me crazy also. What if I am a robot, so what?
the gringo
Anon 11:30: Thanks so much for your comment. Come join us.
Sara: Do you have a Google Account. I avoid the robot thingy by signing into my Google Account I never have to prove I am a robot this way ; )
Gringo: Thanks for your great comment. Yeah, it looks like a reconciliation for Angel and Cris, I hope she does apologize tho for going off the way she did. Hopefully, she learns to listen as she did on Friday and finds out what is what before she goes off. I like her when she's norma : )
Yeah, I think there is a connection between Adri and Lili. We will have to wait to see if she is Lucia, but I'm thinking Lili is Lucia. Same coloring as Adri, but we haven't seen enough of Adri to find out how the Wild Child has such a down home wise cool head, so to speak. Lili is like a throwback to the 60's part flower child, part hippie chic, jus' sayin'. Lili is like an old soul.
I would love to take credit for the "Fly on the wall" recap but I suspect you are referring to something from the remarkable brain of Elna June. I am, of course, tremendously flattered that you would think I had written one of her masterpieces.
I've used song titles (so has Sara) but to frame an entire recap as a musical revue is just a stroke of genius. You didn't use this one in your title, but it's the song that immediately came to me when you got me thinking MUSICAL:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ElTt6vUZPYk
(Bing Crosby and Grace Kelly crooning TRUE LOVE. Sigh.)
Fairly easy ....I was rushing, but I grabbed a bunch of my CD's and skimmed to find appropriate titles.
Right now I am enamored of José José.
This fabulous talent is new to me but known to millions throughout the world for years. If you are not familiar with him, look him up in Wiki. Then type in your browser: Jose Jose El Triste You Tube. This song is incredible, and he was only 21 at the time.
He is 64 now, lost most of his voice, but at least he is still alive with beautiful memories of
those gifts he once shared with the world. One song I was happy not to put down for this novela is El Amor Acaba -- Love is Over,
by Jose Jose.
NovelaMaven: I do so apologize but loved all your great recaps for the Passion Pit and your snark was so funny! Ya know I did err somewhat with this recap cause I never thought of a love theme for the title. I will check out your link though. I love Fred Astaire and Grace Kelly : ) I love old movies.
Floridia: If you like Jose Jose, you may like Cristian Castro. He is sort of protege of Jose Jose and does alot of Jose Jose's music as a tribute,Cristian has a very mellow, smooth, voice.
Ann NYC: Thanks for the nice comment.
Victoria in FL: I remember hearing about this too. He would make a stellar addition to the cast, I am such a huge fan of his and oh, boy is it gettin' hawt in this TN with all these fab lookin men. It reminds me of that song, ya know "It's Rain' Men Hallejah" Oh, boy!!!! I just hope he's a good guy.
Elna June: If you are lurking we are missing you and I apologize to you also.
Also loved "she has her crazy on" and "fugly" among many others. You always reach for the sky and find new, wonderful ways to construct these recaps. Gracias.
Not sure to be relieved or worried that Cris knows that nothing happened. The truth is that nothing has happened - yet. There is an attraction and both Vicky and Angel recognize it but repspect it as well. I can hardly believe this will be the end of her jealous tirades.
Paula seems to be wrestling with telling Cris the truth about her father. It's interesting that the one she truly seems to care about (Cris) is the person she has hurt the most (besides Bea and Frankie of course)...
Thanks again Maelaine! I will be humming your songs under my breath all day.
Diana
Oy, the anvil fell on a Downton Abbey character last night and we never saw it coming. Well,,, until the last minute.
(Has there ever been a better serial drama -- well okay, soap -- than DOWNTON ABBEY? Even UPSTAIRS DOWNSTAIRS pales in comparison.)
Sara:
I have a hunch you have to PROVE YOU'RE NOT A ROBOT because of the privacy settings on your computer. (Or maybe because you ARE a robot and Blogger senses its own kind :) )
How right you are as USUAL!
just wrote a long comment and lost it by a flick of the finger, so will condense it. Cristian Castro has a beautiful voice and you described it perfectly. Hopefully, it will stay with him for many years to come. Last year, I found out about Jose Jose and Cristian simultaneously when I watched a short video on Univision wherein Jose (El Principe) turned over the torch to Cristian. Jose was watching in the wings as Cristian sang Nave del Olvido -
"Espera un poco." That became my first favorite song because I love the words and music and also my teacher in Guatemala sang it occasionally. I bought a CD called Frente a Frente wherein
Jose and Cristian alternate the classic Latin pop songs. Now I am wild & crazy like Chrissy over José José, and my favorite now is El Triste. When I was much younger I liked Besame Mucho, but at that time, I thought I was hearing Italian. I keep up a little bit with current Latin pop songs and have watched the Latin Grammys for a few years. I enjoy most TN themes and especially like the theme of our novela. This is another way where TN's with their themes have it all over American soaps.
Now if you want a lot more work and are up for the challenge, when you do your next musical, you could choose one English song and a Latin companion song. What do you think?
You're the Greatest!
Doris and NovelaMaven: I too hated, hated that Sybil died. I am with you too Whaaa. Leave it to ole Lord Grantham to be makin' stoopid decisions, like he ran Downton Abby into ruin, jus' sayin'.
NovelaMaven: You spewed your Baileys and I spewed my herbal tea when you left that comment for Sara being a robot, lol. So funny.
Sara: Here is what I do. I sign into my Google email account, go to the CarayCaray front page and where it says sign in, I do, and then when I comment there is no robot to prove anything too, lol. It could be as NovelaMaven said, your privacy settings. : )
I'll bet THIS is they key .... email account. I don't use my google email address for this page; I use a non-gmail email account when I sign in here. That's probably why i keep getting the robot thing.
And we still don't know why I can no longer comment here from my iPhone, though, and neither can Sandy in TN, anymore. Something changed with blogger.com.
I have been wondering for some time now what has become of Sandy in TN,
and I was worried about her because she used to be a very active regular
commenter. She often mentioned her hubby, her son, and her 2 grandsons,
so if you are in touch with her, would you please give her my email:
1sfr@comcast.net? Many thanks
