I just went through the whole list, and realized I was afraid I would see someone I know! What is wrong with me.

HAHAHAH! I read the list each year and think, "I SUCK."

Except, I too was remarkably unimpressed with Karen Russell. I've even tried her most recent and abandoned it. Lots of verbal fireworks, but nothing substantial. I think the Macarthur folks got it wrong.

Amy's got the skillz and demeanour to sell herself in this interview. I know this.

A co-worker had an epiphany about me because she realised a) I grew up with live in help as often as not b) the family considered it ironic when said live-in help was white Swedish. Today she's only speaking to me through my assistant cube-mate (he's my assistant because he filled my carafe with iced water--he's cool). She explains this is how Stallone and Kirstie Alley do it when contractors come to the house, even when everyone's in the same room.

Speaking of segues, I watched my first few minutes of The Voice this morning. Will the J'can chick be on every ep until she's eliminated, or will there be a while before she comes back? I don't know how this works. I am beginning to see more about my sister's Maroon 5 crush, and I'm sure how he talked about reggae hurt nothing.

Flu shot has been achieved.

The Voice: They have a few weeks of the first round auditions, so she won't be back for a bit.

Done! I think it went well! I think.

Woot!

Great, Amy! I know you can do yourself justice, and that there's justice to be done.

Thanks for the info, Jesse. I realised I had no idea what differentiated this show in any way from the five minutes I've seen of Idol. Jamaica was so excited that she got on. I didn't even know it was this soon--I only log onto FB to send messages to, like, five people whose email addresses I don't use, and that video, along with a couple birth announcements caught my eye.

Adam Levine is divine. And an asshole, I hear, but god, he's hot. The Jamaican girl was great!

I'm already at that point where I'm telling myself if it doesn't work out, the world won't end, but man, do I want this.

YAY Amy!

That's why the zipless fuck was invented. Well, theorised.

Okay, I need to achieve something. Time for a lidocaine patch and some focus. All I want to do is draw five-headed dragons, and I've never even pulled off a single-headed one.
