I saw that video. CRAZY. Do you know if they were able to put it out before it caused damage inside?
I woke up early, fed the dog and then fell back asleep for a few more hours. Felt utterly luxurious.
Today is my official work anniversary - 25 years. Over half my life. Kinda nuts, but they have been good to me and, other than a few bouts of burn out back in my old position, I've been kept challenged. They used to make a big deal over people hitting big milestone anniversaries, but it doesn't seem like they do that any more. Which is kinda disappointing, but big picture not that big a deal. But I'm darned sure going to use it as leverage on Tuesday when I talk with my boss about a raise.
My housemate is going to go to Minnesota in July to audition for The Voice (closest audition place and a time where he thinks he'll be ready). I've never heard him sing, maybe he sings well. Maybe he's a new version of Paul Potts, who looked like an absolute schlub and has a phenomenal voice. I doubt it. I've been neutrally encouraging, and I'm so afraid he's going to show up as one of those people that gets mocked in the early audition shows. It's great that he believes in his dreams and all that, but gosh.
Good god, aurelia. Yikes! Do you know anything?
The damage was limited to the marquee. Shows have gone on as scheduled today. I do need to go in this weekend so I might get a close-up view.
first beer of the weekend down. Things can only look up.
Yikes, aurelia!
And wow, Suzi!
I have had a very successful day, seeing my father, getting a massage, buying shoes, and reading in the hammock! Oh, and grocery shopping! TCB. I mean, not cleaning the house, but there's still time for that.
The Voice doesn't really have mocking auditions. At least that I remember.
There are usually people who are decent but don't have the wow factor or who are good but have ordinary voices but it's not Amerian Idol level. Probably because you only see the contesants when they get to the judges to be voted on the show. (Instead of all the audition rounds American Idol did).
Yeah, they're pretty respectful generally.
Oh yeah, also I didn't watch this season, so I don't know what he sounds like, but this guy made it pretty far this season, so they are still willing to go on talent, not standard good looks.
