Thirteen had surgery today to have that thing taken off her leg. She's a bit groggy, but basically OK this evening. I was having a hard time stopping her from scratching at it, but she's sleeping now thank goodness. I can tell how out of it she is, because she's sleeping with her tongue sticking out.
Georg is at XDU now and I'm watching the MTV Video Music Awards. Which is just as lame as always. But I always watch, on the chance that something interesting might happen. Chris Rock hasn't been as funny as he was the first time. Maybe they made him tone down the insults to the musicians.
One thing that amuses me about the MTV awards is that, as much time as I spend listening to music and thinking about music, I've never even heard of a large percentage of the nominees. It's like this every year. They're all abasing themselves before some hot new artist and I'm like "who?" So maybe that's why I watch this show: so that once a year I'll learn the names of the people getting commercial radio play.
They did play a few seconds of Panjabi MC's Knight Rider thing as they went to commercial a little while ago. I think it's pretty safe to say that's going to be the best music of the evening. Also, a couple of nominees in the "MTV2 Award" have been playlisted at XDU: Interpol and the Roots. Neither one of them won though.
