I'm home from my wee vacation visit to my Grandmother! and yet I don't feel a whole lot more rested. Sigh. We had a pretty good time. I was fair aggravated w/myself for not being more productive on the novel front. Yes, I know it was vacation, but the way I "used" my time instead was less than worthless. One huge upside, we got to see an uncle of mine who has been AWOL for at least 5 years. Needless to say there are a ton of pictures I need to send him. So that was major joy, in spite of the 2hr drive both ways to see him. Seriously 2 hours vs. 5 years? Worth it.

While Taylor Swift has many charms, an ability to sing is not one of them. Or at least the handful of times I've heard her live I've done it wincing. And so saying, I must ask you f-list, what is the appeal? Certainly, she's hardly the first musician to be a super popular and largely unable to sing (hi, Janet JLo :D ).
