It's been a while...and I have no excuse.

Well, it has been far too long ladies. You all have been asking, sometimes begging, sometimes sending me inappropriate pictures...with the words "Write A New Blog" Sharpie'd on your stomach...but I just haven't gotten around to it. I guess after writing a blog that was over 10,000 words...I burnt myself out. A lot's been going on, and upon reflection I wish I was keeping you posted as it's been happening...so...let's go back in time some...and see what we've been missing.

LIFE:

My niece went from calling me "Michael" to "Uncle Mike" it is the most beautiful thing I could possibly hear.

I became a split employee. Which means, I managed the computer store my brother and I opened, while also delivering pizza's for a Cobblestone Pizza right down the parking lot. It was interesting, and I find I quite enjoyed it.

I got arrested for possession of Marijuana. Not my proudest moment...but it happened...and I handled it like an adult. One humorous part of this however is that I have to pay a fine by July 29th, or I'll be put in jail...what is the fine for this possession charge? $420. Laugh.

I moved back to Connecticut for a job, then the job fell through...more on this later.

ENTERTAINMENT:

I've become quite fond of Karaoke. My favorite songs? "Under The Bridge" by RHCP and "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz.

I have been going back and forth on whether or not to return to wrestling...but in order to do it...or, that is to say...if I were to do it...I'd need to lose this weight I picked up in Chicago.

My book hasn't been doing well unfortunately. I think I've sold maybe five more copies since my last post.

I've gotten a handful of new shows I enjoy. The Walking Dead (AMC) Sons of Anarchy (FX) The Killing (AMC) Game Of Thrones (HBO) Parks and Recreation (NBC)...and I'm sure there's more but it's 9am. Cut me some slack.

WOMEN:

I miss my Mom.

I miss my Sister.

I REALLY miss my little Lexi...the most adorable little girl in the world.

I had a little time to think about stuff...right about now in the past couple of days you would have seen a story that pretty much exposed someone's dirty laundry I guess you could say.

That person threatened me so I took it down and replaced it with a more direct opinion towards them...but in the time since I've had time to do some thinking...and while I am still extremely upset with that person, she obviously in my opinion is going through a lot of hard times. I don't want to add to that. That's not what I'm about. Instead I'll just appreciate the time I had that was good with her...and leave her be to experience the consequences of the choices she's making. I once really cared about this person. I worried about her...but she has decided I am not the kind of person she wants in her life. I respect that, and respectfully back off from adding to the bull shit she is going through. I do not apologize for my comments. But I apologize for my actions. Not to her...to myself. That is not who I am, and I shouldn't have stooped to such a low.


MOVING ON THEN. LET'S TALK ABOUT REBECCA BLACK!

It is most definitely Friday, Friday. And I am looking forward to the weekend, weekend...

On one fateful Friday, the world was introduced to 13 year old Rebecca Black. Immediately her video for her first single "Friday" went viral, for the same reason many other videos do. Humans, specifically American Humans, love to watch a good Fail. This video had Fail Written all over it. I couldn't believe that a song so idiotic would be made. But upon looking into things, I found that the group that made the video pretty much make a video for anyone willing to pay for it. Pretty cool I guess. The epic amount of fail this video embodies is rare. From the annoying smile, to the annoying beat, the annoying lyrics, to the annoying cinematography, the annoying rapper who doesn't rhyme, to the 13 year old's driving around. There was so much fail that this girl could have likely just killed herself.

But that wasn't to happen. No. Instead this fragile 13 year old girl embraced the fail and has since gone on to carry out one of the most EPIC REDEMPTIONS in Internet Viral History. All the great fails in IVH have never recovered like young RB did. The lady who fell while stomping the grapes. Never recovered. The afro-ninja who fell flat on his face. Never recovered. The fat ass chick who fell off a table. Never recovered.

But Rebecca Black did, by teaming up with Funny or Die. I will post the videos here, but first let me just say this about Funny or Die.

I haven't been keeping up with Funny or Die since it's inception. I just haven't. There's a lot of original content, and most of it is over 3 mins long, I just want quick videos of people failing at life or winning, duh. I don't want 3 minute sketches with famous people...well...I do...but...not constantly...I'm rarely in the mood to hit up Funny or Die and mostly forget about it's existence. If I want to partake in lolz I head over to CollegeHumor. But I mostly go there for the user uploads, never the originals...the originals, I'll watch them if the title intrigues me, but mostly I'll pass on them. However where the CH team fails, the FoD team prospers. CH will take celebrities mainstream or viral(like Rebecca Black) and have one of their resident CH castmembers play them. Well FoD wins...becuase instead of dressing a guy or girl up to pretend to be Rebecca Black...they just went ahead and brought in Rebecca Black for a series of videos that wins so hard, you actually begin to appreciate her, and maybe even like her a bit...

WHICH SEAT SHOULD I TAKE? w/ REBECCA BLACK



SUNDAY COMES AFTERWARDS STARRING REBECCA BLACK



The fact that she was able to take all of this hatred thrown her way and make these funny videos is truly a testament to her character. She laughs at herself with us and does an awesome job at it. This series of videos took probably the leading candidate for most annoying person of the year, and put her in the bottom three in that category. Because let's face it, even though she did these videos, her voice is still mega annoying. Nonetheless I give her props and respect. Awesome job FoD and RB.

Well...that's about all I have for today kiddies. Check back soon I'm sure I'll be posting more that I got the bug again.

Ciao.

I love you.

-Mike.
