It's just another manic Monday...


Whoa-oh-oh.

I wanted to be a Bangle.  I wanted to be Susanna Hoffs.  Did any girl want to be any Bangle other than Susanna Hoffs?  Maybe the one sister.  The drummer?  I don't know.  I wanted to be Susanna. 

I wanted to walk like an Egyptian.

The only dance I ever mastered was the White Girl Two Step.

Ooh, that reminds me of that other song.  Kind of...

I can't dance.  I can't talk.  The only thing about me is the way I walk.
I can't dance. I can't sing.  I'm just standing here selling everything.

Except I can talk and I can sing, a little.  And I'm not selling anything.

But I do have some things to offer.


I read a post recently that had me laughing so hard, I figured surely somewhere there was some blog award that could be bestowed upon it.  I couldn't find one, so I made one.  How you like them apples?  Or them diapers, which I wish I'd been wearing when I was reading In and Out of the Bubble.  You may think me heartless, making light of a post entitled "I am having an affair, I think..."  Mae Rae, just so you know, I don't judge you.  You and your torrid affair.  I'm just warning you -- he gets around.  In showers, on kitchen floors... He gets down and dirty, girl.  You just don't know where he's been!  Please, be safe.  Wear gloves.

So maybe you're feeling a little like James Cameron or Avatar at the SAG Awards right now.  I don't have an award for you, but I can hook you up with a way to get some pretty cool swag!

Amber at What the french, toast? clued me in to a giveaway that you and your BFF should enter.  Go check it out at Elephantine, where you can win a set of two necklaces!  And if you win and you're having trouble deciding which of your besties should wear the other necklace, I will be happy to accept it and just put an end to the agonizing decision-making process.  You can thank me later!

Mandi, the Capitol Heights Mommy, is celebrating having 50 (now more!) followers by having her first-ever giveaway!  I LOVE the prize -- an apron from Flirty Aprons!  I love that name!  I think wearing one of those would actually inspire me to get in the kitchen and cook something!  Or else I'd just wear it while serving pizza...

And last but certainly not least, Robin at Mass Hole Mommy has a review and giveaway for a precious Charm Factory bracelet!  Just in time for Valentine's Day!

If you're STILL in a clicking mood, and maybe you're feeling generous and you want to help someone else win something, vote for Christy's blog for Best Disney Wedding Blog.  You have to scroll down a bit to get to their section, but I know a lot of you are fans of Disney and will enjoy looking at these pictures, and probably wish that you could re-do your own wedding to add mouse ears and pumpkin carriages!

Happy Monday, people!  Hope it's an I-don't-have-to-run-day for you!

I did a face recognition profile on a website once that told me the celebrity I looked like was Susanna Hoffs...yeah, I'm cool like that, or the website was broken...

Psh, I didn't get an award? Yeah, my required for reading item is a barf bag. so, I get it...

And, I entered Elephantine just so you know, someone else tipped me off...bring it!!!

(I'm trying to think of an awesome 80's song to tie this altogether but I'm too tired)

Mae Rae said...

This was great. I am going to post this award right on the top of my award bar. Iknow he gets around, I know he is a player but i can't help myself.

i don't think i'm ready to read mae rae. mainly because diapers aren't so flattering to my susanna hoffs figure.

I wanted to be Belinda Carlisle from the Go-Gos. But, if I was to be a Bangle it would be Susanna. Thanks for the giveaway heads-up.

I enjoy your posts! I was also singing The Bangles this morning and came close to posting the lyrics on my Facebook status update. Things were apparently too manic for me to remember to do so, though...

Sarah said...

Thank you for the heads up, and the links! I have some blogs to check out!

I used to be obsessed with The Bangles! My first all-time fave band.

You know they were here in Orlando recently, right? I saw them and they rawked!
