Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Anyway, I thought cooked radishes (the small red and white ones) was kind of the new hotness at restaurants.

I'm sure that Kat and I are the only ones watching Superstars of Dance, and I am really sad that the Australian dancer is leaving, I thought that he was so much more talented than the indian dancer.

I'm watching, usually with one eye shut because some of this stuff is just painful. I did think the Australian dancer was awesome. The Indian dancer underwhelmed me. As did the tango dancers. And most of the others. I really liked the South African couple, but the US judge who said they had to find a better balance between the tricks and the dancing was very right.

I keep thinking these are supposed to be superstars? People who got the boot off of SYTYCD? I hope it hurries up and comes back, I want to watch real talent.

Art Crawl!!!

I recorded the 2nd two hours of the Story of India and instead of the 3rd hour - WTTW played the 1st hour over again. What's up with that?

I just want to say that we know that the thing that Ryan will be thinking about vis a vis kissing the girl in the bikini will be when he wants to not get an erection.

Because books.

Because she was a horror show, personality-wise, or because he doesn't like girls?

My gaydar doesn't work at all for him, and I don't know why.

Little of column A, a little of column B.

She was the most cringe-worthy for me all night.

I like the new judge a lot.

I'm not hating on the blind guy, but I think that we all know that if he hadn't been blind, they wouldn't have put him through. He had a nice voice, but plenty of people with nice voices didn't get through.

I'm sure that it's no surprise that my favorites are the nerdy guy and the oil driller. ;)
