I should be a motivational speaker

NaBloPoMo sucks. How do I know it sucks? Because it's at this point during the month that EVERYONE is tired of posting every day and trying to be creative every 24 hours and I can't even steal ideas or draw inspiration from any other blogs. So now I'm pouting.

I started to write a blog about my new favorite thing in the entire world, Bare Minerals makeup, but then I just knew that would be super boring. It wasn't boring to me because, much like the DVR, it's changed my life except this product actually makes me want to leave the house whereas the DVR makes me want to stay in (must...tape...every...episode of Jon and Kate Plus 8 to watch later).

Then I thought about writing about the new-old CD I rediscovered last week and how it's been making me ponder and blubber in my car to and from work for days and days. But, that's a more fitting entry for tomorrow because it relates to Way Back Wednesday (just wait and see).

Then I tried to write about some of the crazy stories I've heard on MSNBC. Like the mother of a teenage girl who set up a cruel MySpace joke that caused another teenage girl to hang herself in the closet. Or the lady in California who lost all three of her children in a horrendous car accident last year and is now pregnant with triplets.

And then when I couldn't piece anything together, I realized today was just not the day for fun and creative entries. Or even deep and depressing entries. So, this is what you get. I did do a little research today and found that writer's block is a serious issue, and can be traced to Britney Spears' Mickey Mouse Club debut in the 1990s...makes me feel better to know that it's not my fault.

I heard about the mom on MySpace...what in the world? And I would be interested in a Bare Mineral post...I'm out and my face is showing it.

Looking forward to Way Back Wednesday....

I heart John and Kate plus 8. She has some mad organizational skills, no?! The parents crack me up by how blunt they are to one another.

I know, John and Kate rule! I can't believe John puts up with her! But I guess he made her birth 8 babies, he has to take a little slack...

I love TLC reality shows. Little People, Big World is another favorite of mine...
