email from grandma

Hi Jana

  I finally got on the email. Hope we can keep in tough. Am Just Getting the hang of it, so bear with me. want to hear about you and your life . Grandpa and I are fine. Getting used to the place. Please let us know how your life is .  love Gram R.

Recieved this gem from Gram R a few weeks ago.  My brother and I were giggling at this today when his girlfriend, Allie, recommended we check out www.postcardsfromyomomma.com, a website devoted to mom/grandma correspondence of all sorts.  I haven't stopped laughing. I like this one (because it's what my mom would say):

Backstory: I sent my mom a thank-you for being neither Lynne Spears nor Dina Lohan.

I’m glad you are neither of those poor girls.  Showing their cooters.  Shameful!

Love, Mom

the top ten top ten lists of 2008 of 2008

La la la!!!  It's that time of year; 2008 is coming to a close, and bloggers everywhere are getting giant, explosive hard-ons.  Why?  Because they (we?) can now make official sounding "top ten (fill-in-the-blank)s of 2008" lists and (thank you innernets) reminisce about the year before it's even over!!  It seems these days you can't even step outside your homepage without running into one of these lists, and I realize it can all get a little overwhelming.  Which is why I've compiled my Top Ten Top Ten Lists of 2008, so you can relive the year in no time at all:

10. The Top 10 Worst Outfits of 2008

Because everyone loves judging people.  While I don't condone making fun of people who wear feathers, I did enjoy laughing at Holly Madison's cupcake attire (and her shiny, shiny shoulders) and Alex McCord's horrifying attempt at eco-friendly clothing.  But is it wrong to covet Paula Abdul's sparkle pants??

9.The Top 10 Talk Show Moments of 2008

This list should have been made up entirely of clips from The Tyra Banks Show, as far as I'm concerned.  Also, I wanna be Diane Keaton when I grow up.

8. The Top 10 Yahoo! Searches of 2008

Warning:  This will make you lose faith in humanity.  Search queries "Britney Spears" and "WWE" beat out "Barack Obama."  Then again, who searches with Yahoo! anymore?

7. The Top 10 Albums of 2008

Penned by Casey.  By his own admission, an apathetic list (if that's a thing), but one that makes me smile nonetheless.  Mostly because of the Lil Wayne shout out, and Casey's apparant self-hatred for loving that album.

6. The Top 10 YouTube Videos of 2008 

Huffington Post assembled this list by doing some crazy calculation of number of views, newsworthiness, and hilarity.  I hope they measured hilarity by knee slaps per minute or something equally as awesome. Whatever the method, YouTube makes my life complete, and so does this list. 

5. The Top 10 Viral Video Ads of 2008

Keeping with the YouTube theme.  I watched that man flip into his Levi's many, many times.  Ahh, the memories.

4. The Top 10 Underreported News Stories of 2008

This year the major networks got really busy reporting about celebrity vagina sightings and didn't quite have time to fit in stories like these.   I do my fair share of nerding out/NPR listening and I still find this list pretty terrifying.  

3. The Top 10 Cat Videos of 2008

I'm sorry, I had to.  In memory of M&M, who would have enjoyed these immensely. 

2.The Top 10 Judge Judy moments of 2008

WWJJD?  

1. The Top 10 Awkward moments of 2008

Because I eat, sleep and live awkward.  It's a lifestyle. My favorite top 10 list because somehow watching these awkward moments helps me feel a leeetle bit better about my own.  

Hope everyone has a safe and happy new year

i can feel the sting in my mammaries...

In case any of you were wondering what life is like around these parts with Lauren gone (she's in Rhode Island partying it up 80's style this weekend), take a look at this video. We love women.

Turns out there's this little website where videos are sometimes posted. Weird. Here it is, the link straight from the man himself, for everyone's enjoyment:

Links we Like

Ok, so even though there isn't a new episode this week, here is a link to last week's episode of Pot Psychology, taken directly from Jezebel.com. (you're going to have to copy/paste for it to work, because apparently, blogger won't allow embedded video from Vimeo.com) Though nobody in the household partakes in regular drug-usage, all three of us partake in regular Pot-Psychology watch-age. It's a lifestyle, really.

Oh, and I almost forgot, I walked in on my parents having sex the other day. Um...yeah, that doesn't get less awkward with age, let me tell you. All I could say was, "Oops, sorry. You guys have fun!" What else can you say to the woman who buys your birth control? Yikes.

xo,
