I'm often late to reading because I read my Dreamwidth but have to remember to check LJ now. I'm hoping next Idol will be back at DW as I was a bit more involved then!

Well, you're early this week!

Clearly you need to be sending Gary daily emails asking for a return to DW. = )

I would cosign that email.
