Sing With Me
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Please join in welcoming me to the 21st century. I now have high speed wireless internet. As opposed to dial-up. Yes, I know, it's about time.
You may have some questions. I will now attempt to answer them, without you having even asked them.
Yes, this is why I never saw that video you e-mailed to me.
Yes, I lied about having seen it. Sorry.
No, I didn't really mind. Much.
Yes, it tied up the phone line, but that's what cell phones are for.
Right, I never downloaded anything.
Because, it made my whole system slow down, if not crash.
Yes, I love it.
Shit, I HOPE to never go back to dial-up.
Perhaps you're wondering how I came to have high-speed internet. If you're not, just skip this story.
My roommate, The New and Improved Steamroller, works from home sometimes. She said when she moved in that she needed high speed. I said I don't need it, but if she gets it all set up, I'd be happy to use it and pay half the monthly fees. She got it set up. It didn't work on my computer. TNIS has a lot of geeky friends. They come over and annoy me inside my home, in my quest to hide from the outside world, but sometimes amuse me. TNIS also dates frequently. One of the guys is somewhat of a geek. She convinced him to come over last night and fix up my laptop.
TNIS and I sat on the couch and watched Friends (okay, and her boy) while he worked. Then we watched Seinfeld while he worked some more. I told the boy I was sorry, I thought it was a two minute thing, and I'd had no idea it would take this long. We would have prepared to feed him dinner if we knew this would be a long project. He assured me it was supposed to be a two minute thing.
And then he got it. And then he took TNIS off to his house for dinner. And now I can watch YouTube to my heart's content.
Except. I get overwhelmed by new things. YouTube is new to me. So I can't quite figure it out. This is where you come in.
To welcome me to the world of high speed internet, please give me your favorite YouTube clip. They'll all be watched from home, so NSFW is a green light. And to those of you who have tried to send me videos of your cute kids doing equally cute things, please have your kids do new cute things and send me those videos, now that I can watch those too.
Thank you for having me, High Speed Land. It's beautiful here, and if it's okay, I think I'd like to stay.

You may find it a good idea to purge your temporary internet files periodically. Ask geek boy if you should and how to.
Green, I am not really into youtube, but my favourite is Tickle-Me Elmo:

Well I hope you still have high speed internet. Here are three of my favorite youtube videos. Two of them are from So You Think You Can Dance. I'm guessing you like that show, but I haven't been able to confirm it yet. The other is Pink's performance of Glitter in the air from the Grammy's I think last year. I absolutely love them all. I hope you do to!
