First Oprah dis­gusts me. [eye roll] She really does with her gift giv­ing self. Tonight was her Leg­ends Ball –an honor and appre­ci­a­tion ball for those who paved the path in the arts while inspir­ing the young to con­tinue to strive forth and lead by exam­ple. When she handed out those lit­tle nice red jew­elry boxes I wanted to choke at the size of those dia­monds. Yes, they were real! Hoops and drops.

I’ve been bone tired lately.  Bone. Tired. I need a good back-rub. Meanwhile, I’ve read little. Downloaded maybe six e books includ­ing Incubus by Raine Weaver from Loose ID which was a strange expe­ri­ence for me. When I tapped on the check out button, the web­page didn’t change and I thought the trans­ac­tion didn’t go through. So, I checked my email and there sits the web­page with the down­load. Anyway, I’ve been brows­ing e-book stores and found Diesel books.

Thanks for the ebook rec’s peo­ple. I appre­ci­ate it. I’m going to keep a sticky on it till the end of this week. Some­one men­tioned Lisa Marie Price — I bought one book by her but just never read it. I look for­ward to read­ing her work.

Amer­i­can Idol

I guess like every­body else, this sea­son has been a stun­ner. Chris Daugh­try was on the radio here and he said he was just as stunned as the audi­ence when he had the low­est votes. I don’t care, I still think this show is rigged. The next Amer­i­can Idol is Tay­lor Hicks or Kather­ine McPhee? Rii­i­i­ight. Tay­lor got fur­ther than I had ini­tially thought. I have to con­tinue to watch this farce until the very end.

 

Off to go get that back rub…
