Why I'd Like to Thank the Academy

I recently found myself in a discussion about what people think about while working out. My brother said, "Nothing." It's his time to clear his head. When it came to my turn, I was truthful. "I practice my Oscar and/or Grammy acceptance speech."

To which I was asked if I played...

"No."

For some reason this seemed unusual to everyone. Hell, sometime I perform a whole concert as Jennifer Nettles. (I would so kill for her voice!)

In addition to my amazement that I just shared this tidbit in a room of people I'd just met, I looked over at my brother to see the surprise on his face. I realized that I share very few of my daily observations with those around me and that should change. I'm not sure if my world will interest you much, but it keeps me entertained and I'm excited to have a place to share it with the rest of the world.

Who knows, maybe they'll have an award for best blog at an upcoming MTV Awards. (I would so beat Perez Hilton if just for the simple fact I don't use that annoying white pen to write all over people's pictures.)

So, "I'd like to thank the academy for recognizing all my hard work at being myself. I'd like to thank my family for supporting me even when they think I'm crazy. Oh, an I can't forget my baby boy, Oscar!" (You'll be hearing plenty about him in posts to come :o)
