  • I'm a Bit Behind

    Really behind.

    Oh ho ho ho!

    Thing is I've got recent thrilling vid of a trip to the Central Park Zoo, the Bethel Woods 60's Museum and mucho mucho more!

    But I need my commentary to sizzle as much as the cinematic moments.  And at the moment, it's after 11P on a weeknight and I don't got it.  

    Also, everyone I've ever known ever is finding me on Facebook and it's starting to freak me out.  At first it was fun, but now I'm creeped out by the people who I haven't seen in about 15 years who "friend" me but then don't say howdy.  Especially when they use a picture of their babies instead of themselves so you have no idea of the ravages the years have taken on them.  That's not fair.  Also, did you disappear when you had kids?  No.  So enough already with using your babies for your profile.  You make all the people without babies who want them feel bad and all the people without babies who don't want them gag.  Not cool. 

    Of course now I'm tempted to do the same to up the stakes in this arms race of cuteness.  So far I've been able to sit on my urge.

    And worse than using your kid as a profile pic is using your spouse AND your kids as your profle pic.  Yes, we get it, someone agreed to have sex with you -- do we need to see the whole family?  Also, I can't see your wrinkles with those wide shots so cut it out. 

    OK Internet, I'm feeling annoyed. 

    I'l be my stinking rosy flower of a self tomorrow for sure.

    xoxo,

    Susie
