No, I didn't watch it

i debated with myself about watching it for a while before it started, but when the time rolled around i thought, "nah..." i generally find it very painful to watch those things and instead usually read about it via live-blogging and news reports... so, this morning after reading the overnights, i'm just as glad i didn't watch... (btw, i would experience nearly identical pain watching american idol...)
