Missing the AMAs

This is the best example yet of how upside down my life is today, compared to a year ago ...

I had no idea the American Music Awards were last night.

Kates and I didn't realize what we were missing until we began getting ready for bed, a few minutes before 10 p.m. mind you -- again, upside down. I turned on the TV to catch some of the local news and we caught the New Kids on the Block and the Backstreet Boys, or should I say NKOTBSB (Seriously!?) wrapping up the show with their spectacle of a performance.

I might be more sad about missing the AMAs if every headline I saw about the awards today didn't have Justin Bieber within it.

Between that and my absentee viewing this year, it's no wonder ratings were down.
