There I was sitting at home, minding my own business (by which I mean I was knitting and thinking deep thoughts such as “I wonder what Clay is doing right this very minute?”), when I decided to go online and check for news before going to bed.  Well, I could tell the moment I logged onto my favorite Clay Aiken message board that something momentous had happened.  Pages were flying past right before my eyes.  That could only mean one thing:  fresh Clack or a blog.

My money was on fresh Clack because it had only been three weeks since Clay’s last weekly blog. I wasn’t expecting to hear from him again QUITE this SOON. However, he obviously knew I wanted to know what he was doing so he told me: he was sitting at his computer writing to me! I really appreciate how in tune he is with my needs and wants, and how well he knows me. I mean I’m off the wall, artistic, and really thoughtful. Everyone says so. Plus I always respond to him – sometimes in ways even I don’t expect. He said he misses me, loves me, and we’ll be seeing each other soon. I’m clearing more room on my credit cards just to get ready!

He also told me not to be trying to go through any channels to find the title.  I’m not sure what he meant by that because I don’t think my television is going to have his album title anywhere.  I think he was just pulling my leg with that one.  But he did drop a number of hints about something in that blog; I don’t think he could help himself.  For example, he said “the fact that I capitalized "wait" is not a hint at all.”  Don’t you see?  That means that the <I>other</I> capitalized words <I>must</I> be hints.   Let’s look at what we’ve got.

NO SERIOUSLY REALLY MI (which some people might think is a typo but I think it’s code for “I’m”)

Okay. So we’ve got NSRM or NSRI or some sentence that might be something like: No, seriously, I’m really . . . Really what? Don’t stop there! Oh, wait. He didn’t stop there. He came back later and added another sentence that was all in caps! That’s got to be important, don’t you think? Let’s see what we’ve got now.

No, seriously, I’m really not remember(ing) the whole album title.

Uh oh.
