Chocolate Rain kid kind of creeps me out. I believe he's probably a sweet boy -- but this voice shouldn't come out of him.

This video has over 12 million views. Video is killing the radio star.

This makes one of my top 10 favorite viral YouTubes of 2007.
Ohh wow...



More to come as I count down.
I’ve been pretty bored lately.

The boredom could come from the cold of the winter. It also might be the fact that a number of my friends are low when it gets dark and chili, so I’m spending more time alone. But I am bored.

“If you’re bored, you’re boring...” one of my cousins tells her kids when they complain.

But I’m not boring, I know this. I have a ton of projects at my apartment that I work on, I invite people over, I workout at the Y about 5 times a week (and say hello to the regulars there), I’m usually busy all weekend long, I see friends, I see family, I see book club girls, I see stitch n bitch-ers, I’m not adverse to doing things alone (I’ll head to a party on my own, or the coffee shop, or grab some food) AND I’m working on the most challenging work project I’ve ever been part of. When I break down my shoots from this last summer and fall – they are certainly not boring...and the travel I got to be part of was extremely fulfilling. All of this is exciting. Yet still, at the end of the day, I’m flat.

The work stuff is slowing down and I’m craving to keep the busy pace.
The friends are retreating inside for “movie nights” and I want to keep pounding the strip.

I think I need something new, which could bring up some big changes.

Deleting

Lately I’ve been really into deleting.
Emails, email addresses, phone numbers, photos, old letters I’ve saved…and actually most of my closet.

Anything I don’t need, I’m quickly getting rid of.

One thing I REALLY don’t need to hang on to are things that make me feel bad or stir up old ghosts. That’s where deleting the phone numbers, emails and photos come in. I don’t need to see numbers in my phone of old friends that I always call first and it takes months to get a call back. I don’t need phone numbers of my ex’s family members. And I don’t need ex-boyfriends or flings contact info anymore either. It’s trouble to have anyways.

This might sound bitter, but it isn’t. It actually seems really positive.

Get rid of stuff that makes you feel bad. That should be obvious.
