now, to the best of my knowledge, this is the first post on my blog to ever include the phrase "american idol." if i have been sleeptyping about this program, which would be amazing on several levels, especially since i have never seen the show, i extend my most humble apologies to each and every one of you.

still, though . . . it's something to hear the judges say you rocked it--even when "it" is imaginary. and i may very well be an American Iool fan; when that program airs i will be sure to tune in. if i'm lucky, it'll be the sister show to it's always sunny in philadelphia and will fill in all the empty spaces left by that show's absence. i mean, its season is only, what, like, two months long, isn't it? i needs the crack!

crack . . . crack.



update, 1/17/07, 1:30 PM: as if the program hadn't already done its fair share and then some of making my life complete, sunny's adorable little web site has now alerted me to the existence of the philadelphia insectarium, a multistory interactive bug museum. this is so cool--the right kind of beetlemania and a person-sized spider web . . . it's like my dream house. way to go, philadelphia. you really moved me.
