Friend Sean and his BFF Mark made this AwesomeAmazingHilarious video.  ”Son of the Hulk”!  I adore:

Dear America,

I’m feeling so very American!  Cannot stop with the Springsteen and Mellencamp and Don Henley songs!  I’m dreaming of tall grass!  Coke in glass bottles!  Corn!  Crickets!  I’m watching this movie right now:

It sucks!  Who cares!  I want to be a bad babysitter with blonde hair who drives a convertible! It’s so damn American!

Okay, let’s complete the look.  A favorite of mine to really set the mood:

Eddie Wilson!  Air punch.

I’ve been way into Fraggle Rock lately — so funny and touching and true!  I also think I look like a Fraggle.

Here, Boober tells Red his worries:

Boober!  I relate.

A clip from alltimefavorite teen soap, Skins.  Effy Stonem (played by scary gorgeous Kaya Scodelario) speaks some five-star first words: “Sometimes I think I was born backwards…” So gloriously abstract!  How I long to be fifteen and reckless!  And too — aloof, destructive, debauched, deeply mysterious, and a master of the smoky eye!

My fave:

So, who won the freebee copy of Denise Jaden’s Losing Faith?!  Hannah Moskowitz!  Fellow Pulse author, blogger, & all-around adorable human being!  Yay Hannah!  Yay Denise!   Let’s celebrate with a little Thelma Houston (!), whose pop classic, Don’t Leave Me This Way, gets this Tuesday’s blog spot in honor of my dad, who told me last week about the time he and my mom partied super hard to this song in a Vermont ski lodge in ’77.

Oh god, I love this song.   Like, love it.  The catchy melody, the effects, the wackadoo lyrics!  Jason Derulo! You so crazy!  Superstardum can turn a philanderer into a loyal, monogamy-loving kinda guy?!  What?!  Amazing.

(Apologies for the Geico commercial.  I tried to find a version of this vid w/ no ads — no luck):
