Allow me to share one of my current guilty pop pleasures: “No Air” by Jordin Sparks featuring Chris Brown (YouTube embedding disabled…boooo). It’s nice to see another American Idol graduate done good. I heard it on the radio on my drive home today and thought of an alternative “artistic” video theme. An empty helium tank and a deflated balloon. That’s it. Or maybe there would be one scene where you see many happy, filled-up balloons floating into the sky, and then this deflated one that is tossed into the air…only to fall miserably back to the ground. But I suppose my idea wouldn’t fly for 4 minutes and 50 seconds. People would probably get bored. Maybe people have even stopped reading this blog post by now. Sheesh…I blame the internet for killing our attention spans.
Mmback from a pretty relaxing, overall good time at Keuka Lake in New York. I’m happy to report only one bug bite. Highlights would include an Amish horse and buggy spotting, Crossbill the feisty duck, a very loud potato gun, a pretty hike, boys being boys, and charming wine tasting establishments:

I let the pictures do the rest of the talking.
Also, it was my first time taking JetBlue, which was pretty coo. Five hours in the air ain’t nuttin’ when you got a Man vs. Wild marathon on. Poor Bear got stung by a bee in one of them–hate to see him less than handsome. There is also XM Radio (including hits by Justin Timberlak and Everything But T). They also serve aminal crackers. And they use Google Maps to track the flight. It is kind of weird how they set their flight times. My flight to Rochester from JFK left an hour late, but managed to arrive a few minutes early–not that I’m complaining. But maybe that is just their way of ensuring on-time arrivals.
So I was at Target today when over the loud speaker, I hear:
- Attention, Target employees. Get ready for the blitz…get ready for the blitz.
Blog-worthy? No? K, sorry.
Anyway, I’m a stupid tired bitch right now (parse that however you like). Next week I’m off to Keuka Lake, where I probably won’t have internet access and cell phone reception might be poo…but maybe this is a good thing.
I am a little sad I won’t be here to witness Nelly’s triumphant return like everyone else. Welcome back, Nelly! And here’s to wine and mosquitoes. Byee.
