Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I decided to skip the whole auditions segment - I can't stand watching the people who think they can dance but can't and my eyes start glazing over after too many of the same style. Also? two hours is a serious investment for me these days.

I hear you Jesse. She's amazing. And I was so irked at Paula and her "dance like a man" comment. Boy was giving Broadway. It's not supposed to be manly with that music and choreo!! He had a smile on his face and was doing a lot better than the other dudes in his group!!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And he's 18! I feel like half his problem is that he's not actually fully-grown yet.

Yes, I was saying that to my roommate last night also--boys aren't fully mature and grown until they're in their early 20s, a lot of times! He's still a baby!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I'm a week behind on Sing It On , but they made me cry last night. One of the kids in one of the groups committed suicide. I'm still so devastated for his friends and family. Reason number whatever of why I prefer fiction. Dammit.

Oh man, Epic, that sounds rough. I wonder if it'll eventually be online somewhere--I checked TiVo but I don't have that channel or get that show anywhere else. :(

I'm a bit behind but watching the SYTYCD LA auditions now...

Huh, it's produced by John Legend, you'd think he'd be big enough name to get one of those deals like Younger has that gets it spread to 2 or 3 of the less well-known channels.

I just tried to check Hulu, but it's blocked at work. And Amazon video's never heard of it. Weird. Guess I'll just feel bad about Kevin & fast forward pretty much any time Michael's speaking without anyone knowing what I'm talking about.

I've been watching it On Demand. Just watched the last two episodes and wow.

Was that to Sing it On? If so, don't tell me who got the coveted Wildcard slot, 'cause I'm still one episode back. **Crosses fingers for No Comment, 'cause she just likes them better**

Um, if it was SYTYCD, then, uh, never mind, nothin' to see here.
