yes, i am alive

but the fire to post doesn't burn quite as strongly.

what can i say, when i give up on something, i go all out.

because i was doing pretty well there for awhile with the daily posting, i feel like i'm taking more from the internet than i'm giving back. here i am, reading all the big names and small local bloggers, learning about parenthood and fashion, and what do i give back?

i used to give back whitty thoughts on the celeb pregnancy craze, snippets of me as a precocious youngster, and photos of my shoes.

now i'm lucky if i post anything once a week.

but i have to think pretty highly of myself if i think that the internet is thrown off balance just because i'm not posting with any sort of regularity. i think i'm just thinking too much about blogging beacuse of this.

now that i have a job that has me sitting at a computer all day on fridays, maybe you can rely on a weekly post.

maybe.

OMG

ok, so yesterday was my birthday. la la la, i love my birthday, i have fantastic friends, am having a wienerfest tonight in my honor. yeah, whatever. it is great. i'll blog about it later this weekend with stories of how many hot dogs i ate in a 20 minute period.

but enough about that.

I'M GOING TO MEET CHRISTIAN SIRIANO OF PROJECT RUNWAY AND MARYLAND FAME NEXT WEEKEND.

i have nothing to wear and if he calls me a hot tranny mess, i will die. JUST DIE.

that's a relief!

so, last friday night, i still had one more day of class so i couldn't celebrate the end of the week in my usual style.

so instead, sam, brant, and i watched the scripps national spelling bee. and an american tail.

but we are here to talk about the bee.

i loved that it was LIVE from dc. i loved that the super jewish girl got knocked out on a yiddish word. i also loved her hair.

but mostly... i loved this:

the entire thing is humorous, but make sure you are paying extra close attention at the 34 second mark.
