Clap your hands, say "yeah".

Okaaayyy. So. Listen up people, I've an announcement to make. I realize that very few people actually waste their lives away reading this blog. However, for some of the poor schmucks that do, I thought it would be best to implement a new strategy as far as comments go and it works like this: If it just so happens that you read a post and are stirred enough to leave a comment, DO NOT leave the comment on my blog. I won't see it. It will disappear. I don't know what the problem is exactly with my blog and why the comments don't show up, but there you have it. Instead please please please still leave a comment for me! Just comment me via a facebook wall post (or message if you prefer) instead. If you're not my friend on facebook then I would have one of two questions for you. If I know you then my question would be, "Why the heck aren't we friends on facebook??" and if I don't know you then my question would be, "Why the heck are you reading my blog??" I mean, I realize I have a natural tendency towards the midly entertaining on a reasonably frequent basis but really? It's not that great. Just look at the fact that my most recent post was the first one in a month. Pathetic. Ok I fear that if I go on I will veer completely off topic. If I haven't already, that is. So I'll just remind everyone one last time:

If you do have a comment leave it on my facebook wall or message me. Don't leave the comment on here. Neither of us will have the pleasure of seeing it show up . . .

Ok that's all for now lovelys.

Doughnuts! And other rambling thoughts . . .

Ok so my absolute favorite thing to eat for breakfast besides cereal, bagels, and bacon, is DOUGHNUTS! Every Friday morning after swim practice I go to shoppers and buy a dozen colossal doughnuts.




 At first it was reasonable enough because there's 8 people in my family so it makes sense. I would eat two at the most. Well now I have 3 family members who have decided not to eat doughnuts due to my sister's upcoming wedding in July, and 3 family members who have decided they "just don't like doughnuts anymore . . ." This leaves my mom and I to eat the doughnuts, and you'd think since there's only two of us we'd stop buying a dozen doughnuts. Oh no, instead we just have contests to see who can eat more. (I'm winning with 7 right now.) And if you thinks that's amazing check out this doughnut tower!



Anyways . . . so yeah doughnuts just make me so happy that I just felt the need to share that with you :)

On to something else . . . DISNEY CHANNEL ORIGINAL MOVIES! I'm talking about the good movies. Not the sorry excuse for a disney channel movie that they have now. I mean, back in the day, Disney channel movies taught valuable life lessons about things like failure, and pain, and dealt with issues like racism. Now they all run the same, common, (and STUPID) thread. Boy/Girl isn't cool. Has two best friends (why are they always in THREES??????) Usually is two boys/ one girl or two girls/ one boy. Wants to be popular/ be the boyfriend/girlfriend of the cool, popular, jock/cheerleader. One of the best friends is secretly in love with them. They don't know it. Boy or Girl ends up doing something stupid in a quest for popularity. Alienates best friends. Spends the rest of the movie trying to make amends and in the process figures out that 1) being yourself if better than trying to be what you're not and being "popular" is relative and 2) FINALLY realizes the reason his or her best friend has been drooling like a baby through the whole movie is because his or her best friend is secretly in love with them. Cue credits. 

WHAT THE HECK!!!! I mean, I'm not saying these aren't valuable things to learn. Because really, yeah, you shouldn't CARE what everyone thinks of you. But that lesson has been taught. And learned. Move on please! 

I have to go read a billion pages of history now, but keep an eye out for my list of the best Disney Channel movies of all time.
