Demi Lovato on Fixing Hearts
Shame on me for thinking Ms. Lovato was just another Disney-made one-hit-wonder. Thank you Pandora for shuffling in her “Fix A Heart” jam this AM via my “Amy Winehouse” channel.

MoreTo Die Dreaming and Be Dominican
Not just because it’s Dominican Independence Day (you all know how I feel about being Dominican,) but I really wanted a Morir Sonado today since my drink choices are limited having given up diet coke and coffee for Lent.
