Who is this "Lady Gaga" you speak of?

I don't live under a rock and thus have heard of Lady Gaga—even heard a song or two without identifying her as the artist.

But I've never really listened to her music or learned much about her, so when I came across an interview while channel flipping I gave it a chance, and...I might change my mind later, but I think I'm impressed with her.

At the very least, quite a fascinating subject.

A writer writes

If I had known it would feel this good to do something creatively indulgent I would have plunked down the cash long ago....But at least I've finally taken the plunge, and I'm already glad I did.

Last night I had my first fiction writing class and it was awesome, AND I came straight home and started the book I've been mentally planning for almost five years.

I mean maybe it won't be the start of the book, but it's definitely the start of the start of the book, if that makes any sense. It feels AMAZING to be paying some legit attention to these words and ideas that consume my mind!
