Funny Stuff, Hopefully

Friendlies, I’ve been noticing lately that I seem to be doing A LOT of serious posts and not so many funny ones. Which I’m kind of wondering about seeing as how I really do like the funny and the only reason I’m not using it so much lately is because, I don’t know, the serious just seems to be in my mind.

It’s weird.

(And of course, my “funny” is very subjective. Really what I mean, in case you’re all thinking I think way too much of my funny skillage, is “less serious and more lighthearted” – that’s too long to type though.)

So I’m putting it out there for YOU TO VOTE, which YOU BETTER, because how else will I know if people mind all the serious or not?

Which do you prefer? 1) Serious posts. 2) Funny posts. 3) Either. Both! 4) Funny? You’re not funny! 5) Did you know Nathan Bransford was nominated for Hottest Guy in Publishing over at Gawker??View Results Make your own poll

Anyway.

I haven’t been keeping up with Nathan Bransford’s blog nearly as much as I usually do and have deteriorated from checking it daily to, like, thrice a week. But a few days ago I saw this post labeled “Thanks, Gawker. I Think.” And then underneath had a link to vote for the hottest guy in publishing.

First thought: Huh.

Second thought: Wait. They have contests for this kind of stuff? Laughs like hyena. But only in my own head. Or maybe out loud, who knows?

No, I didn’t vote. It seems more embarrassing than anything else, like the time in ninth grade AcaDec when Andrea gave Neil a christmas card and wrote that he was cute, then Teddy read it in front of the class (yes, he stood up and read it in front of the entire class) so that Neil had a permanent blush for the rest of class. It was funny, but I always just feel embarrassed for others when they get embarrassed.

Plus I really need to stop saying “embarrassed” because I never know how to spell it.

In other news, Taylor the Lovely says that I, or at least the pictures I take of me, look like a Chinese doll.

Like this, only without the hair up. And the Chinese outfit.

Which is odd because (a) I am not Chinese, not even a little bit, but (b) people have always said that I look a little Chinese. Or that my eyes do at least.

However in this highly photoshopped picture my eyes mostly just look scary. Which IS WHAT I WAS GOING FOR.

Also.

You know how before I was TOTALLY ON A CRUSADE TO MAKE YOU ALL BELIEVE I WAS A TELEVISION HOUND?

Well I think I’m back on it. My looooved shows that are now on?

1. Jon & Kate Plus 8. Yes, okay, I didn’t like this show at first. I realize that, TAYLOR. But that was just me being prejudgmental and now that I’ve seen it I love it. Love it so much. Eight kids! All cute! A very chaotic house! And funny stuff!!
2. My Boys. Yay! My Boys is back!! Woot woot!
3. The Bill Engvall Show. I don’t love this one quite as much as the others, but it’s still hilarious.

Later, friendlies.
