Tuesday, October 01, 2002 Fame, I'm gonna live forever....Kelly Clarkson is so a Behind the Music in the making. I'm surprised at the articles that I'm reading about how the show people and record executives are deciding every little thing about her career. From what songs she sings, to exactly how they want to market her (even her highlights are pretty much decided for her). Like she's a new line of clothing from The Gap or something. It's good to see that she sold her soul for zero creative freedom in her own life. Just a pretty face and a pretty voice. And frankly, I'm already getting sick of her. Start the clocks at 15 minutes!
So I finally went running last night. And although my feet feel fine from the plushy comfort that are my new Saucony's, the rest of my body on the other hand is an entirely different story. I haven't gone in at least 3 months, and my thighs, my hips, even my abs are just crying out in opposition to my healthful choice today. But the worst part about running is starting back up again. So I have to figure that soldiering through the pain will eventually die away.
Well, I'm tired, and I have stuff to do, so I'm going to go away now. Bye.
BTW. Ryan Adams. October 13th. I'm there. (Ryan! Ryan! Not Bryan Adams!)
