Missing Sanjaya Malakar - Teen Pop Sensation

I have to be honest: today's been rough. The emotional investment I've made in Sanjaya Malakar Teen Pop Sensation from American Idol has taken its toll. I'm a mess. A fabulous mess, but I'm hurting. (LOL)

The Stages of Grief:

Denial -- No, this can't be happening! Sanjaya was robbed! Our poor baby! This show is rigged! How could they eliminate him on the night his family was away and he was alone by himself in Hollywood???

Anger -- Why do people still hate Sanjaya? What did he do to you Elizabeth from the View? Your intolerance is sickening! Why should we "watch out we haven't heard the last from him yet" -- as if he was some sort of disease? He's no longer on the show, what's so wrong about him being on TV in the future? Huh? Huh?!!! So you know, Sanjaya is for women's reproductive rights, unlike you.

Bargaining -- Oh no, does Sanjaya really have staying power? I'm worried. Can we really make him a superstar? He seems so isolated, now that the Idol spotlight is away. What will happen to Sanjaya? I promise to do whatever I can to help your career!

Depression -- (tears streaming down cheeks, tears bleeding from heart -- LOL)

Maybe tomorrow I will reach the Acceptance stage, but for now there have been moments when I just want to sit in a corner and sob after everything that has happened. I truly am sad. *sniff*

Go Sanjaya! Teen Pop Sensation! Go Lucky Number 7!
