This is not a full post. This is an interruption in the normal blogging scheme so that I can complain and ask for help, and also tell you something.

iTunes constantly taunts me by not allowing me to purchase and download the entire catalog of The Divine Comedy. But today it is just being spiteful. Right now, in the UK, you can download the new Scissor Sister’s album, Ta-Dah.

I adore the Scissor Sisters. I believe that they have been sent to help us, and Ana Metronic is my hero. She has very important things she needs to communicate, and here I sit, waiting to hear those things. Except that the UK iTunes store will not sell me the album. I have to wait until TUESDAY (the 26th), for the U.S. release.

This does me NO GOOD as I sitting here working NOW. I’m trying to listen to it off of myspace, but it’s not working so well. It’s making me twitchy.

Does anyone have any ideas on how I can resolve this terrible crisis?

However, it cannot be a coincidence that Ta-Dah is coming out on the very same day as the long-awaited paperback version of 13 Little Blue Envelopes, complete with 12 pages of extras! I choose to believe that these events are linked!

I’m told that some copies of the paperback have been spotted in the wild, lurking alongside Devilish, looking all paperbacky and coy. I have a few copies myself. I have used them to build a little wall around my desk. I am always taking protective measures to prepare for the inevitable zombie attack. (What have you done today on that front?)

I’ll be back tomorrow with another installment of my Catholic school stories. It’s a good one: the story of our prom, the rules, and the 100 yard dash that secured my academic future.
