I know it is one of the standards in the ballet canon, but I've never seen it and (since I'm currently reading it) I had to wonder how the hell you make a ballet out of Don Quixote.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Enrique Iglesias is nothing without his mole.

That's what it is! I couldn't figure out why he looked so generic.

So, an indication of how little I'm loving this season of Top Chef is that I really didn't give a crap about clearing it off the TiVo. Sigh. I hate this reality show bullshit.

Also, the previews from next week make it seem like my hatred for Alex will grow. Pea puree! The words have lost all meaning.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I went back and rewatched what Nigel was saying about the tour, because I was curious.

It sounds like
a) No Mark. BOO
b) Only Katherine and Russell from last season. No Legacy, Jakob, Eleanor? Odd.

Perkins, I read elsewhere that Jakob for sure has another job lined up and Legacy may as well.

Art Crawl!!!

Just watched Work of Art On Demand.

Sigh - they had the opportunity to get rid of Jaclyn and they kept her.

Oh well, I know - Ryan just hadn't been performing and both Abdi and Jaclyn had produced well in the past. Her time will come.

Very happy that Nichole and Peregine were in the top.

Sumi, my thoughts exactly.

Because books.

I like Nicole a lot, as well as Abdi, even if he didn't quite let go this week the way he could have. I thought what Nicole did was really interesting, and Peregrine's was outrageous. So cool.

Ryan totally missed the mark with this challenge, although I thought Miles did, too.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

how the hell you make a ballet out of Don Quixote

It's Don Quixote or Kitri's Wedding - one segment of the book made into a ballet.
