in a ballroom in Detroit
All that is happening right now….Holy shit.
Craig Ferguson, the Today Show, People Magazine, Maroon 5, Rolling Stone, radio, Entertainment Weekly….
I feel like I’m writing about somebody else.

I feel wonderful, and a little bit scared, but more wonderful than scared… so I feel like I win. It’s been a whirlwind, and very quickly my days are filling up with more and more things to do. “Publicist” is actually a word in my vocabulary. Crazy.

I don’t know if I feel compelled to write to reassure myself, or all of you that it’s all pretty incredible. It’s different, and new, but it’s still just me, Chad, Javier and Josh running around having a blast and making jokes and meeting new people and loving the majority of it. Sure we get fucking tired sometimes, and hotel rooms kind of suck after awhile, and gas station food still makes me nauseous, but my God…what an absolutely awe-inspiring way to live. Everyday is a new city and new faces and new reasons why I’m almost brought to tears with gratitude that somehow I ended up here.

I’m so honored to have your love and support, and believe me, I will spend every ounce of what I have to give in repaying all of you for all of this.

*Sniff*
Ahem.

Now on to more lighthearted matters, just to bring you up to speed.

Lots of people think I’m Jewish.

Chad hates it when people ask questions they already know the answer to to start conversation.

Javier was disappointed that when he tried to “Simpsonize” his nephew (www.simpsonizeme.com) nothing happened.

Josh Day has friends in almost every city, and a good sense of humor in the mornings.

We tipped a guy named “ Papa Smurf” to watch our car in Detroit.

It’s humid in Detroit. I looked like I rocked like a rockstar after my set, but I was really just hot.

I miss my bike, and my houseplants.

Aquafina is going on record saying that their water source is actually tap water.

Drew Carey’s still going to ask you to spay and neuter your cats and dogs on the Price is Right. Bob Barker’s happy.

Hi! New fan here... saw you on the Today show, um, today!!! Great performance. Just wondering if you had ever been to New Orleans to perform - if so, well come on back!! Now that I've implanted that little idea in your head, I bid you good day :0

Dear Sara,

I just saw a snippet on TV for a Rhapsody ad and it was wonderful. Very remenescent of Sarah McLachlan. Very awesome. Keep doing what you're doing. Dream it, Do it! Remember how you got where you are and who you are and your fan base will be die-hards! Can't wait to share your stuff with my husband and grandkids. I so appreciate your talent!

Way to go!
