to two of the luckiest ducks on ze planet!

No, seriously! Rub my head, rub it now, and rub it good, because karma like this doesn't come in the doses I've been getting without begging to infest a whole populace. Postponed MacroEconomics test, Grammar homework not due until Monday, got to watch the Acting majors perform instead of having to get up and do a "polished" version of my own monologue, and none of that's even mentioning my masterful skills at acing a Public Relations quiz yesterday and the entire week's worth of everything Joey/Lance I could've ever asked for.

Did I mention finishing my literary question fic way before deadline somewhere in there? Because yes.

What have I done to deserve any of this this? Well, going on the premise that good karma is well and hard-earned, it's nothing I've done in the past month, lemme just get that cleared up. The illustrious birthday boy on the other hand? Worked.His.Ass.Off. Hats off to Mr. J. Timberlake, twenty-two today and there's really nothing I could wish him because if anyone could, he's truly the one who will do it all and anything else he pleases.

"How you survive is, you don't buy into it. You wake up, you look in the mirror and you say, 'I love you, but you're a funny-ass, ugly dude. And you make a record for yourself . You say, 'What do I want to hear myself do?' and you hope everybody gravitates towards it. And that's the most rewarding thing about this album, and that's why I feel this is justified because it's been a long time coming and I did it my way."

Happy Birthday, J.

Thanks to one of the kids doing tributes today, I finally got to see a picture of Justin graduating from high school onstage during the concert! So, so in love with said picture I've been sending it to anyone unfortunate enough to run into me on AIM and then gushing at length. They're all wearing the caps! And Justin looks so accomplished and they all look so happy and it's such a beautiful moment. *sniffle* You go, boiy.
