My first year at the Lab is coming to an inauspicious close, as I am currently at home, naked and grouchy, instead of asking if I’m going to get a raise anytime soon. I like raises, I think.

I don’t particularly want to be sick with an identifiable cause – there are Things on my calendar that I don’t want to miss because of a cluster of germs that won’t sit down and shut up. Friday is the Tegan and Sara show at the Orpheum, and on Saturday there is blood to give, and next Monday is my COURT DATE – so you see, I am far too busy to give into my wanton illnesses.

Why is the average age of every artist on MuchMusic 15? And when did MuchMoreMusic turn into the Nickelback channel? This is NOT helping my convalescence one bit. Weren’t there more Pussycat Dolls? I thought there were like 9 of them or something; this (horrible) video only has 5. Oh, they’re dancing in the rain now. That’s original. This is terrible stuff. More, now than ever, an All-Simpsons channel is truly needed.

I’m well aware of the fact that I appear to be live blogging my sick day, and I’m sorry. I’ll stop now.
