The Outlet, WVU's now-defunct creative arts organization, held it's Valentines Day-themed talent contest "Love Stinks" Valentine's Day night... eve (what?) at 123 Pleasant St. I thought I'd throw my hat in. It was tossed back at me and nearly poked my precious little eye out. Nevertheless, I took the stage and performed "Special Ed Girl", a song I'd spent minutes writing. It's about falling in love with a girl who hits her head, goes a little wacky, hits her head again, regains her mind but loses her boyfriend for he had fallen in love with his Special Ed Girl. So I did the song with a little drunken accompaniment and the judges deemed me worthy of the 2nd place prize. Rock on. |
