I don’t know how many of you were able to get her first CD, but Leslie Feist is back with her sophomore release The Reminder [Leah, I know you're excited] and it will be just glorious. This is her first single, 1234, which I’ve fallen in love with. I love the video. I love the song. And I sing it at work, which is something I’m sure is at least on the level of ‘disturbing’, on account of the fact that I both cannot sing nor can I regulate the sound of my voice. Especially in public settings and situations that require a modicum of decency.
Which brings me to my other point. I’m pretty sure that living in NYC has amplified my lack of control over the volume at which I speak AND my knack for being completely inappropriate. So with that, I’d like to apologize to the woman at B Bar who may or may not have heard me say what a horrible shirt she was wearing that night. But [and if she is reading this] I’d like to also say that it was totally deserved. You cannot go out with a shirt that has more ruffles on it than Miss Jay’s on America’s Next Top Model and not expect to get a few stares. It just cannot be done.
Live it. Learn it.

It’s the group dance concept that you love, isn’t it? I can just see you imagining yourself in any one of the exciting primary colors represented. Maybe you want to be the dude that gets to where the Waldo shirt. Or maybe one of the hot guys in a green shirt. No matter. I just hope that along with your singing at work, you accidentally break into the dance, drawing everyone in the office into your Leslie Feist reenactment. And I hope this for you, not for my amusement. Not for my amusement at all.
I’m bored.
