Of course we would be remiss if we didn't at least mention Hurricane Irene. Not that we LIKE hurricanes. We just like watching everything unfold. And I especially like how the weathermen are the new network stars. How many ways can you describe "heavy wind"? GO!
In all seriousness though, if, like myself, you are in an area with hurricane and tropical storm warnings please, please take precautions and stay safe.
(And HEY! Bonus! Your food storage and emergency preparedness will come in handy! Way to be exceedingly righteous!)

Here's the latest issue of The Barrel. This is also the last issue of The Barrel, because it is undergoing a renovation. Amen.

Of course, I've wasted plenty of time watching videos this week, because, you know, I just did. (Don't judge me.)
At any rate, I have had the soundtrack to Sweeney Todd stuck in my head for the last two weeks. Have a little priest?
Of course, by now you've all seen or read or heard about Harry Potter... but you know what? This is how Harry Potter should have ended.

We had a LIVE CHAT for discussion Wednesday this week. It was pretty much amazeballs. Know what else is amazeballs? The word "amazeballs". Seriously though, we had a BLAST and it was so fun to get to know you all better! We felt like there was a more natural give and take, therefore, we hereby declare that all our discussion will be live.
SO... you know, join us every Wednesday at 11am MST. We're talking about, well, stuff. We'll let you know what we decide ;)

It was also brought to my attention that I never updated you fabulous readers with news about my dumb health.
So FIRSTLY, I want to say thank you to everyone who offered prayers on my behalf. And SECONDLY, I have Multiple Sclerosis. And a couple of other super fun auto-immune diseases, but MOSTLY, the MS thing.
And here are the answers to the questions I get the most: No, I wasn't surprised. Yes, I've suspected for years. Yes, I should have gone to the doctor sooner. No, I'm not going to die. Yes, it hurts. No, I'm not a hypochondriac. Yes, I'm still going to make fun of all of you. Yes, I am totally serious about that.... did I miss anything?

I swear I had another couple of things to share. But I can't remember anymore. It's probably because I have MS. (I KID)
xoxo,
