I guess you people really do pay attention

Man, you start putting adorable baby pictures up and all of a sudden the ol' blog is getting a ton of hits!

How do I know? Just today I got two random emails from 2 of my readers...one asking me how the stand up set went last week (more on that later) and a second one from someone who wants to try to schedule Al Gore for an event! WHAT!?

Okay so first of all my weekend in DC went great. I was in town for a baby shower for a friend of mine (scroll down for the photos). It was fun to catch up with people from school. It really and trully seems like everyone I knew at GW has moved on with their lives - they have children, homes that they actually own, etc. Meanwhile my excitement in my day is updating my blog. Somewhere the ol' priorities got out of whack. But when I start feeling sad I'll just look at adorable photos of my friend's kids. I have a few of these pics up on my bullletin board in my office - keep in mind that all these kids look really different, yet they are all around the same age - and the other day someone asked me if all those kids were mine. Yeah, over the period of 3 months I had twelve kids. I'm going to start putting up pictures of George Clooney in hopes that someone will think that he's my husband.

But I digress - the stand up set last week went well. It was a lot of fun to see some of the comics who I've totally lost track of. I'm not rushing to get back into the limelight any time soon, but it was nice to see them.

In answer to my other random email - I DO NOT KNOW HOW YOU CAN CONTACT AL GORE! People...just because I am an aspiring celebrity and just because my day job occasionally puts me in the same room as former vice presidents does not mean I am some how able to deliver information about how to reach them and get them to perform at your kid's bar mitzvah. (To be fair the person wasn't asking me to get Al to go to a bar mitzvah, but you know, it wouldn't surprise me if someone is actually out there thinking "Say, that's a good idea."

So there's my life up to date. Think of me tomorrow afternoon - I got an audition for a promo spot for SPIKE TV. They want a "strict teacher" for a commercial they're going to air. Strict means I don't have to worry about doing anything with my hair other than putting it in a bun, and teacher means I get to wear glasses. I'll let you know how it goes.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go see if Al Gore will perform at my kid's bar mitvahs.
