feeling nervy

Not about the wedding.  About accidentally publicly following the blogs of strangers.  I read an interesting article in the Freep today about blogging.  So, while reading a friend's blog, I hit the "next blog button" at the top and one that popped up next was really well-written, very relatable (if that's even a word if not, shotgun! I invented it).  The next one made me laugh out loud twice.  Not a bellowing laugh but a brief and quality HA.  I think it's because she posts photos that she takes of people who aren't looking. When camera phones first came out my friend Ellen and I got them so we could dissect the outfits of strangers.   But now I'm nervous they will read my blog and think I'm lame.  I mean WE all know I'm not lame because WE all know me.  They don't.  I'm just a picture and some words.  Hmmm.  I wonder what those things say about me....

Ohooh-ohoh, ohooh-ohoh….alright stop: shower time.

It was a very fun and family-filled weekend for Miss Elizabeth’s baby shower. Were you in Michigan on Saturday? Did you have an outdoor garden themed baby shower in the torrential down pour? I did. Thankfully the "Power at the Shower" (GC and Kate-tastic) had a large tent to keep us on the dry side. GC and daughters made some amazingly tasty quiche and muffins and cupcakes; the whole event was really beautiful and a good time.

On Sunday, did a little swimming and saw the Julie & Julia movie—good flick. I think I need a better blog theme than wedding and I too could have a book and movie deal. My coworker and I have tossed around Sara & Sarah (with me channeling Sarah Palin). The movie would obviously star Tina Fey and, as of late my celebrity lookalike is usually Kate Walsh, formerly of Grey’s Anatomy. Or Gisele. HA! Only the main issue is I would never want to channel Sarah Palin. So on to idea number two: blog about having a name that is the subject of a popular 80s song. Too bad there would be about three entries long and, as it turns out, Jefferson Starship already has a video. I welcome your suggestions as mine are lacking…
