"      In the wise words of Easy A&amp;#039;s Olive Penderghast, &amp;quot;There&amp;#039;s a twig in my eye, or like a branch or something.&amp;quot;  Last night Lindsay Lohan was a guest on Late Night with David Letterman, and the ensuing interview was one of the most awkward, touching, interesting and cringe-inducing 14-minute segments of television I&amp;#039;ve seen lately. In his typical curmudgeonly fashion, Letterman opened by basically bulldozing Lohan into discussing her past troubles with stealing and various substance addictions, as well as her upcoming stint in rehab. (&amp;quot;Why are you not in rehab now?&amp;quot; he asks point-blank, and we learn that she&amp;#039;s checking in on May 20th. Or so she says. And a follow-up that&amp;#039;s essentially impossible for any real drug or alcohol addict to answer: &amp;quot;Why will it be different this time?&amp;quot; Jeez, Dave, why don&amp;#039;t you ask the hard questions.) &amp;quot;Be a father figure,&amp;quot; she says at one point when he&amp;#039;s ribbing her, and we&amp;#039;re reminded of the awfulness that is Michael Lohan. Gah, no wonder she&amp;#039;s so messed up. As Lindsay fielded his invasive questions that weren&amp;#039;t included in the pre-interview, she was surprisingly self-possessed, sharp and looked great. (That Suno dress! Want!) And, towards the middle of the interview, Letterman makes it clear that he really, really wants her to get better and prove everyone wrong.  He&amp;#039;s also impressed that she had &amp;quot;enough spine, enough sense of [yourself], and enough poise&amp;quot; to come on the show after making myriad monologue jokes at her expense. Touched by his compliment, she starts to cry. And later, after wrapping the show and receiving compliments on the Twitterverse for her sense of humor and composed attitude during the interview, she Tweeted:   Thanks to all for the kind words and overwhelming support #blessed \u2014 Lindsay Lohan (@lindsaylohan) April 10, 2013 I&amp;#039;m still rooting for her.
