I Wanna Know What Ruv Is

I've just been having an extraordinary weekend and need to share the ruv. Last night was karaoke in the International District with a crew of extremely fun friends. George blessed The Lady is a Tramp with his suaveness and a couple of neighborhood locals gave us spastic waves of happiness with their Engrish rendition of "I Wanna Know What Love Is." Marcelo and Jen and I had wonderful dancing experiences. I wisely chose to sit out any karaoke of my own: on a night like that I would have strove (strave? striven?) for registers beyond my ability to sing and the best interests of the audience.

I saw "Mad Hot Ballroom" today and my eyes were joyfully seeping through the entire thing. People are beautiful and amazing. You should see this.
