Later that night

A quick note on music: seriously, virtually half of it, whether on the radio, in bars, or on TV is in English - and of that, most of it's American. The other half is predetermined pop music from here in Spain. Somebody, I don't know who (probably The Man), decides what the songs of the summer will be, and then you hear them everywhere. Roberto was the first to explain this concept to me, and I was amazed to find he was right. ClearChannel haters, I have bad news for you: it may not be as obvious here (commercials aren't coordinated), but media conglomerates exist here all the same.

But an hour ago, I saw Vanessa Carlton's video on the top 40 video channel. I fell twice as in love. She's *way* more beautiful (and my type) than I remember. And, being the only still-single woman on my Top 5 list, she advances to the top. I think I need to pursue a career as a famous musician.
