Dear Blogger

Can you provide a function wherein I am able to keep a list of all of my blog ideas?

It would be much appreciated.

Best,

Amy

In the meantime, I will write a blog reminder for myself (for those who are actually reading: if you can decipher, I suppose you deserve to scoop my yet unpublished words.)

- how we get scooped
- who will women voters be when i'm old (like me, I think)
- rectifying the need for indulgence and brains
- why must my dog lick his foot until the pad is gone? (oh wait, that's a question for my vet -- unless someone out there has an answer)
- must-see list
- Netflix...and why I'm always last on the bandwagon
- MFK
- food, politics -- metaphors
- new Microsoft commercials? Brilliant or just silly?
- why is my computer screen pink? (ask the BF tonight)
- contest (make my readers do something)
- why the Ds need a CMO

BIG News

That's right, my loyal readership (you know who you are), there is big news today. I mean B-I-G.

Today is...

The 80th Anniversary of the day Tich Freeman became the only bowler to take 300 wickets during the English Cricket Season.

Well, that AND...

The official end of my 3 month hiatus from blogging!

I just can't help myself. I mean, Gossip Girl was sooo good tonight. Love the steamy steaminess between Blair and Chuck.

You'd think there was something else going on in the world that would spur me to re-engage with my short-lived favorite hobby (a big 'I told you so' to anyone that read the post where I made that prediction...don't say I don't live up to my word.)

In all seriousness, I've been meaning to write. I really have. It's just that nothing was getting me riled up. Well, there were those 2 turtles and that nasty man who accused me of not being a responsible dog owner (different incidents). Oh, and the delicious pork stir fry I made the other night. Yet, I still wasn't feeling as feisty as Maureen Dowd.

But, then they couldn't let it rest: this whole Sarah Palin and the election thing. And, I had the best blog title in my head all weekend ("It's not about Sarah Palin, stupid."...I didn't say it was the most original.) But, real life scooped me. The economy is in shambles, and so it actually just might, just maybe, just possibly COULD be about the economy...stupid.

Now, can we get down to a real election, please?

p.s. Don't get me wrong, I do want to see more of Tina Fey as Sarah Palin and Foghorn Leghorn as John McCain. Oh yes, and more of Maureen Dowd's snarky columns. And just one more thing: keep the smut coming Gossip Girl (and don't forget NY Mag's next-day reviews) Please. Pretty please.
