ciroccojFor some bizarre reason, the soundtrack of my mind has been playing the only snippet I remember from a Saturday Night Live skit featuring either NSync (sp?) or the Backstreet Boys. The skit had them indignantly denying that they were just pretty, talentless mouthpieces for someone else's creative genius. To prove that they were real artists, they had written a song entirely on their own, and were going to sing it. Don't remember any of the lyrics other than the chorus:
Girl you are, wicked awesome,
You're so awesome,
Girl. You. Are. Wicked AAAWESOME!!

In other news, grapes that are slightly squishy are far less yummy than grapes that are still nice and firm. This food moment brought to you by Weight Watchers.

Oh and yesterday's bedtime reading giggle-moment for the boys: scene near the end of The Silver Chair, where a Witch is enchanting the children, the Prince they've come to rescue, and the Marsh-Wiggle (kinda like a frog-man) who has accompanied them on their quest. The Witch has been strumming a mandolin and filling the air with a heavy, sweet magical scent from the fire, and they're almost done for until the Marsh-Wiggle bravely walks up to the fire and stamps it out.
First, the sweet, heavy smell grew very much less. For though the whole fire had not been put out, a good bit of it had, and what remained smelled very largely of burnt Marsh-Wiggle, which is not at all an enchanting spell.
