America's Got Talent: The Finals performances...
...oh my sweet Prince Poppycock, what have you done? ;___;
Dad still thinks we should have given him all ten votes. Mom wanted to give all ten to Michael Grimm. So we wound up splitting the difference and doing five each.
Also, the YouTube comments are delightful, ranging from "I hope Piers dies slowly of throat cancer!" to "Piers' buzzing him was actually a premeditated 'dick move' because AGT doesn't want to be represented by someone so flamboyant and ambiguous. They want to be represented by unemployed chicken catchers and pretty little girls in flowered dresses."
I love YouTube. I really do.
Just please, don't let Jackie Evancho win. Her technique is terribly, she's going to destroy her voice if she doesn't get those low notes out of her throat and stop forcing her vibrato, she has yet to do anything except opera (no performance range whatsoever!), and thus far she has yet to do anything that Barbara Padilla didn't do better last season. AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, CHILD, PUT YOUR ARMS DOWN FOR ONCE.
Also, I am now officially back on Lexapro (HAPPY DRUGS HAPPY DRUGS LA LA LAAAAAA~), and I have the weekend of October 9-10 off to attend my aunt and uncle's fiftieth wedding anniversary party.
And considering how often I've gotten shafted on scheduling and how little I've complained and how little I generally ask for? I feel like I should NOT have had to feel like I was fighting that hard when I did need something. But fortunately, a couple of my coworkers are awesome ^o^
And finally, Professor Layton and the Unwound Future is AMAZING and Yuri Lowenthal as Legal!Luke is divine and I literally had to close my DS and squeal when one of his puzzle-solvey animations included the dialogue, "Puzzling? I think not~" And it's also really awesome to see the two discussion threads on
professorlayton so alive and buzzing over it.
PLAY ON!

Honestly, it'd be nice if Michael Grimm did win since he did the best tonight and I'm pretty certain Fighting Gravity and Poppycock are getting Vegas shows regardless.
