Tears.

Tears, and joy, and hope.

History is often noted in hindsight...this is happening before our eyes. I'm proud to be a part of it.

I am beyond pleased with this year's winner. Despite my apathy for most of the contestants, this might be the most invested I have ever been in a contestant through all seven seasons. It's a little...sad. But dude, he sang U2. What's not to love?

(Which is still technically open, if anyone wants to join the fun.) I ( Read more... )

Work sucks in about 27 different ways, I didn't sleep worth a damn last night, I turn (gulp) 30 in 15 days, I'm disgusted with how much I weigh ( Read more... )
