The lock out & The Sing Off

Another day, another short blog post (since our computer mouse problem seems to be more than just a dead battery problem now).

The Lock Out:
I locked myself out of our house this morning with my keys still on my dresser. No fun. 20 minutes and two removed window screens later (the first window was locked), I finally got back in. I just knew someone was going to call the cops if they saw me breaking into my own house, especially considering what happened to our next door neighbor last week. But, luckily, I was wrong. Now I just have to see if I can fit the window screens back into place, or if they'll ned to be replaced.

The Sing Off:
Maybe it's because I was once in an acapella singing group, maybe it's because I am a fan of the judges (Ben Folds, in particular), or maybe it's because I just really love good mucic. But I am really enjoying this season of The Sing Off. There's a cool group of Mormon boys from BYU and a jazzy, soulful DC group from Howard University that have been my favorites so far . . . up until this performance:



Seriously?! Five people using only their voices can come up with something as amazing as that?

Tell me you're not impressed. I dare you.

I haven't watched any of The Sing Off nor X Factor, so I like when people blog about it and I can get a 4 minute glimpse. I read Ben Folds' tweets, so I sorta know what's going on. And Nick Lachey has a job?!! Anyway, yes, impressive group! Still a place in my heart for acapella.
