Purple Pain

 We were on Skype.  Annabel was looking forward to seeing Katie Perry.  As soon as Katie appeared on screen, Annabel let out a howl and burst into tears.  "What's wrong, Annabel?"   "Wah, I don't want Katy Perry to have purple hair.  Waa, wah!"    She wanted her to be wearing a ponytail and  be riding a tiger, it seems.
    I could have cried a little myself.  All those old people----Tom Jones, Barry Gibb, Paul McCartney.  The ugliest dress I've ever seen.  Thinking Miranda Lambert looked slightly bulgy and a little desperate until Madonna took the stage, and trumped her.  And they didn't even have purple hair.  Of the 5 songs up for the best, I didn't care which one won, as long as it wasn't "Happy,"  and it won.  Silly lyrics, simplistic melody, and Pharrell in a tux with capri-length pants.  Oh well, it's all about the tweets anyway.
