I am still cracking up over HillaryisMomJeans.com. I found out that Barack Obama Is Your New Bicycle too.
If Obama is elected by this nation would that make it an Obama Nation? Only mad gabbers would know.
I've been tagged for memes and since it's from two of my blogger friends, I must comply. Now Holly loves to tag me so, solely for the purpose of infuriating me as only a friend could, but she is pretty darn cool and lives in the UK (which you must know my infatuation with the UK, by now). Seven could easily drive up here and force feed me Folgers and leave with incriminating photographic evidence that I haven't gotten a pedicure in over a year.
I heart, heart, puffy heart them both. You see now why I have to do this? (and don't you just hate that people actually communicate using "I puffy heart you"? That's like saying I need to go to the drippy plop room. I don't think so.
Here for your ~insert massive dripping sarcasm here~ viewing pleasure, another meme.
Pay attention here and no dozing off.
Have it be known, that Meme, pronounced "meem", means a bit of cultural information, that is shared verbally or by repeated action from one mind to another. Also known as something a big time blogger never posts and I end up doing. Is this my poetic fate, meme-ing my way to a book deal? I hope not.
Here I am sharing cultural bits of information by PMS...or MSG, or ESPN. Whatever.
1. Pick up the nearest book.
2. Open it to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence/ phrase.
HEY! No falling asleep, I'm meme-ing here!
4. Blog the next four sentences/ phrases together with these instructions.
5. Don’t you dare dig your shelves for that very special or intellectual book.
6. Consider yourself tagged if you want to.
Dude, I heard snoring.
I had to choose the second book. I broke the rules only because my first book was Barbour County, WV Death Records for 1853-1919. I did not think you wanted the details of small children dying of diphtheria, measles and whooping cough.
My excerpt comes from The City Of Ember by Jeanne DuPrau. This book was recommended to me by my 11 year old, the recommendation of which made me proud.
"Mostly insects," said Doon. He told her about his collection of drawings and the worm he was currently observing. To Lina, this sounded far less interesting than an undiscovered city, but she didn't say so. She led Doon over to the table.
Sweet holy morning breath, there is drool on your keyboard.
Here is Holly's meme, which involved being creative.
1. Go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random - The first article title on the page is the name of your band.
2. Click http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3 - The last four words of the very last quote is the title of your album.
3. Visit http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/ - The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.
4.Use your graphics program of choice to throw them together, and post the result.
I know, I know, it's like internet Nyquil but work with me here.
Please click to enlarge rocking new album cover.
