Because if there’s one thing we really need as a nation right now it’s yet another excuse for self-loathing, Dancing with the Stars this week brings us the theme Guilty Pleasures. No, this doesn’t mean we all get to circle up and listen to Len detail his recent late-night Google activity (thank Christ); what it means is we get to watch the remaining seven stars and their partners break it down to some of the most shamefully obnoxious dance songs of the past few decades, owning their shame and turning it into a bunch of fancy dance steps. What it also means is we’re assaulted by numerous live performances by MOTHERFUCKING HANSON. Remember when I thought things couldn’t get any worse on the music front? I hate being wrong.

So make sure you check back in the next few days to read the full recap, in which we will discuss who made “the magic” happen (not Hanson), who trips over someone else’s bad costume (also not Hanson), and who straight up shakes their ass in Len’s delighted old face (not Hanson, but wouldn’t that be sort of awesome?).

BlueCanary is as unorthodox a blend of optimistic and bitter, laid-back and anxious, motivated and straight up lazy tas one is likely to meet outside an unspecified institution. She spent the past decade holding a variety of job titles, including reporter, tech writer, production manager, and administrative assistant (the go-to job in this economy for folks who just HAD to get that English degree). She is currently living under the tiny yet powerful thumb of an awesome, pint-sized little dude, who wets himself and can't form full sentences (read: stay at home mom). Another tyrannical little thumb is gestating in her womb. She is a regular on The Neutral Corner podcast and blogs at www.mamamuzzle.com. 

Blue's as-yet-unpublished YA novel, The Nature of Echoes, is currently a Quarterfinalist in the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award contest.

    I thought Kirstie was lovely tonight – she just glided along the dance floor. Romeo did a great job as well!
