Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Ugh, I tried for the last hour to go to sleep with that stupid TMJ retainer in my mouth. I feel like I am all swole up with tongue. It's so goddamn distracting, and I have a hard enough time falling asleep without a thing in my mouth.
UGH.
That is one sexy banker.
I had stuff to say but I was distracted by the cupcakes. And by cupcake I decidedly do not mean porn, I mean pastry.
Oh, no, I remember. I will photograph the pretty pretty dress next time I get all dolled up. I have cute shoes too. I wear it pretty often. Well, often for someone who does not generally wear skirts. The color is not technically right for me either but it really works. I bet it`ll even improve with my inevitable summer tan.
I made it to rehearsal and to my commitment after! It was pretty rough going; a double rehearsal, but I did ok, especially considering I didn`t get the lead sheets until tonight, and hadn`t ever heard two of the songs. I have absolutely no resonance, but my pitch was ok except when my ears went (popping). And I needed my breath control techniques whoo doggy because my lung capacity was so diminished. But I made it through. No descants; my range is way less. But I could tell I was past the nodes damaging bit of my cold, this was all coughing upper chest stuff. So I could sing! And I think I`ll be ok, at least passable, for the memorial service. Even if I don`t make church, I should be able to be there for my buddy.
Should I watch SYTYCD? If it`s too late for Natter to make all my decisions for me it`s probably too late for me to start watching a two hour show, huh? But I have work and extra vocal rehearsals and a three hour hockey game to watch tomorrow. And Saturday is crammed; I won`t even have time to feed the dog. And Sunday we have church and people over for more hockey and a conference call.
I better watch now. I`ll put the live tv on music in case I fall asleep.
Skipping my by-this-time-too-usual-4-digits-skip because, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is a double Buffista event: it's both Dana's birthday as well as (according to flea "If the Apocalypse Comes, Beep Me" Jun 4, 2005 3:46:56 pm PDT ) Ellie's birthday.
Happy birthday, Dana! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!
And happy birthday, Ellie, you big girl! With lots of wishes for your younger brother, your mom, and all your family, as well!
And, of course, short and pleasant Fridays and lovely weekends all around!
