Don't care about what your readers think; care about what YOU think...

This post is dedicated to John Austin Porter...

Okay so I'm slowly but surely getting over my fear of blogging. Of course this won't come over night, but it will come. Eventually. I have faith in that.

Instead of coming up with something terribly witty, satirical, ironic, informational, humorous, or the like, I decided I'm just going to do what the quintessentially "normal" bloggers do - write about whatever the heck I want to write about. So here goes...

PIGS IN A BLANKET:
I love pigs in a blanket. Will and I talked about this today on the way to the Domain (yes to get designer jeans for men so what?) and it was awesome. Pigs in a blanket are wonderful and extremely underrated! For some reason, kolaches have taken over the sausage-and-carb market, and while they are perfect breakfast mini-meals, pigs in a blanket are more applicable to "those moments" in life; i.e. graduation parties, cocktail parties, lunch, dinner, late night snacks...basically any time you are surrounded by people and having a great time. Kolaches are only ready to be eaten for breakfast, afternoon snacks, and that's about it. Therefore, pigs in a blanket win.

CINCO DE MAYO:
This evening at a local Austin Mexican restaurant, a 30-something-year-old man approached me at the bar and here's what went down...
30-something: "Wow I really like your dress."
Me (wearing a teal mumu): "Oh thanks; yeah it's really comfortable..." (at this point I am thinking oh gosh this guy is trying to hit to me and doing a poor job of it)
30-something: "Yeah women don't really wear dresses like that anymore...it reminds me of my mom when I was growing up - she'd wear one all the time"
Me: "Umm thanks...bye"
