Dear Dudes:
On Fridays I post on a blog called "Challenging the Gnome." Two very cool friends and I started it to help us figure out creativity, life, conquering fears, and whatever else flips our cookies. My partners, Maegan and Russo, are mighty fine, funny, and insightful women, and I am . . . well . . . me. 🙂
For today's Life in Bits post, I'd like to invite you to pop on over to Gnomes and read my take on Writer's Block and Banana Nut Muffins. There's even a recipe attached. AND, if you want to know why we called the blog "Challenging the Gnome," there's a tab at the top called "Why Gnomes?" which explains it.
To get my take on Writing, Muffins, Nicolas Cage, and Orange Frosting, click here:
Janiel's Post on Challenging the Gnome
ALso, I received a lot–I am talking a LOT–of pressure to post the video of me doing the Raindrop Impersonation. I posted a clip of someone else doing it here in my Wednesday post (below), and it just wasn't enough for the American public. I mean, I was buried in requests.
Um. Okay. Well, there was one comment.
And it was kind of a passing comment on how it might be fun to see said clip of me going all precipitation on you. BUT THERE WAS A LOT OF PRESSURE IN IT, OKAY? It was from Maegan. She said:
"Awwww, I kinda wanted to see your raindrop impression *sad face*"
See? See the pressure? And so, because Maegan insisted, and because she is my friend, here is my impersonation of a raindrop. (And while my raindrop-form is good, I have to say, I think the man-scream employed by the dude in Wednesday's post is much funnier. On the up side, my kids are really embarrassed by this, so you know, this is character building for them.):
*sigh* I have no dignity.
Who needs dignity. I lost mine when I blew a gasket in the BMV a few weeks ago. I might never recover.
Thank you! You do it so much better. That boy did not do it right.
Rob – I wish you had a video of that. 🙂 You always have dignity. If I could see you lose it, I might feel that there is hope for me.
Lynn – THANK YOU! You are so funny. :]
Aaaaaah, the world makes sense again. Thank you. *happy face*
