Here is an actual e-mail I sent to my family. My love for Beyonce is so real that I needed to inform them.

Fam:
As you may or may not know (if you’ve listened to the radio, saw the news, or glanced at my FB feed this morning)… Beyonce released an album this morning [should be “last night”- oops]. Excuse me!?
What’s awesome about it is that no one knew it was coming- she never released a single, and there was no official promo for it. She just released it on iTunes with no fanfare. She’s calling it a “visual album”, because when you download it, you get all 14 songs, AND you get all of the music videos for them! That’s right- she managed to film all of the music videos with such high production value… and no one ever knew! And it’s already #1, selling 80K in the first 3 hours. Crazy! Anyway, I saw this and thought it was funny…
I may or may not have been a Shockonce this morning, having jumped out of bed once I heard it on the radio to immediately check online if it was true. And then I shelled out 16 bucks for the album.
Best purchase ever.
And the album is good. Really good!
