Just heard this catchy little song on Sirius XMU and found a link to a free mp3 download of it online. The theme of the song reminds me of Kelley, who has been known to break into Whitney Houston song.
Is there anything cuter than a girl singing about dancing and encouraging others to dance? Japanese scientists are still working on topping it, I believe. Blair’s “Candy in the Kitchen” paints the picture of a girl whirling carefree in her kitchen to a Whitney Houston soundtrack.

Kelley and I will be at the Dr. Dog show tonight at Turner Hall. We first heard them at Lollapalooza 2008. They were playing on a stage near the wine tent where we had stopped to grab a glass and cool in the shade. I’ve been waiting for them to make a Milwaukee visit ever since.

I downloaded the new Vampire Weekend album from Amazon yesterday (for only $3.99 — no idea how long that price will last, but it’s a steal). I haven’t been able to stop listening to it since, and I’m really looking forward to the March 23rd show at the Riverside now!
rating: 2 of 5 stars The plot of this book was entertaining, continuing to excite me about the direction of the “True Blood” series on HBO. However, Harris’ writing continues to leave much to be desired. A 300-page book simply should not use the phrase “that’s another word I learned from my Word-of-the-Day calendar” more than once, much less what was at least 6 times, and maybe up to a dozen by Harris in this book.
I also feel like she contradicts herself in her characterization of Sookie. On the one hand, you have the non-stop Word-of-the-Day references that make Sookie seem quite simple and relatively uneducated. On the other hand, Sookie immediately recognizes the bouncer at the bar as a goblin. C’mon…
I have to move on to a more well-written book next or I’ll lose my patience entirely with this box set.
