Root for The Netherlands, because that's where my brother lives and is in the process of getting citizenship! My brother the Dutch dude!

I told my boss I was going to be very tired today because I didn't get home until 2 last night. It was the Olympians Meet and Greet at Martuni's, and when you get a bunch of actors anywhere near karaoke, it's on. I deliberately took BART to force myself to go home early, but instead I got a ride (from someone who also said he was supposed to leave at 11:30). Which meant I was able to sing "You Oughta Know," which was the only available song I really knew and loved. It was a lot of fun, and I got many high-fives afterward. One girl said I was awesome and got the whole place singing with me. I said that was really Alanis's doing, but she said I also gave a good performance. A lovely Irish girl said I was the "legend of the whole night."

In any case, this reminded my boss to show us a video of her singing "Brick House" in Orlando.

I really love working here.

I'm really hungry, but I'm too sleepy to know what to make for lunch. I was wakened from my morning nap by what felt like a bee sting. The welt on my arm is small, like a pimple, but touching produces the kind of sharp pain that raises their hair on your neck and gives goose bumps. I did not see the critter that is responsible.

So, liberal application of diphenhydramine both internally and externally.

ETA: Lest anyone be terribly moved with pity for me, I should add that half an hour later, with time for the Benedryl to work, it no longer hurts, at all.

ETA2: Still, Benedryl plus not quite enough sleep equals too gronkified to plan a simple meal. Did I mention that I'm hungry?

P-C, I don't suppose there's any video footage of you Alanis-ing it up, is there?

Whenever Jilli shows up, or whoever wants to see it. My ouija board necklace Jon got from a friend of ours. [link]

There may be pictures! No video that I know of.

(The DJ was skeptical of my song choice. He was like, "Really?" I said, "I'm an actor! And tonight I will be playing the part of Alanis Morissette." He announced that I would be getting in touch with my inner 21-year-old angry woman.)

"I'm an actor! And tonight I will be playing the part of Alanis Morissette."

You are made of awesome, my friend. VSOP awesome.

Something I've wondered - if you reversed the genders of "You Oughta Know," would it still work the same? Or is the song essentially a female complaint?
