Jason says "read this blog!"
Just when I'm about to sign the DNR papers for this blog something comes along and inspires me to write another post. One of these days Jason Segel will come to his senses and beg me to befriend him. I just hope he isn't waiting to see the 365th reason. It may take years.



365 Reasons Why...An Explanation

Well, hello there (said in a very sexy voice). You're looking quite lovely today. Welcome to my blog. Feel free to take off your shoes and get comfortable, maybe leave a comment or two. This started out as kind of a funny thing to do after I blew a phone conversation with Jason, but I've found I really enjoy writing every day and researching new and interesting things about my future BFF. In January I met Jason at a comedy club and the few words we shared only reinforced my belief that he and I would get along famously. As a dear friend of mine recently said, "why wouldn't he want to be friends with you - you're awesome!" Perhaps the 365 reasons in this blog may just convince Jason of what I already know to be true: separately, our awesomeness is great; combined, it may be enough to take over the world.

Reason 189

Writing. Not only, Jason, are both of us fans of pulled pork barbeque sandwiches, Van Morrison, and the Muppets, but it seems we also both fancy ourselves writers, either for fun or for money (guess which one of us gets paid). For the past 188 days I have been a slave to my laptop, keys clacking away, in an attempt to write quirky, laugh-worthy, occasionally sweet posts about the two of us (ok, mostly about me, but it's getting harder and harder to write about someone I don't know). In that time I have often yearned for someone other than my lovely mother to provide me with immediate feedback and toss ideas my way so I can continue this little endeavor until my 365 day sentence is up. I don't want to be presumptuous, but I imagine you wouldn't mind a writing buddy to proofread your pages, provide you with that perfect turn of phrase, or demolish that pesky writer's block that occassionally sits heavy on your shoulders. You can trust me to be completely honest about the words you have poured your heart and soul into and I would expect you to give me the same respect (unless you have something snarky to say, then you can just keep it to yourself). So, the next time you need a little inspiration, Jason, feel free to lob some ideas my way or email me a scene that you've been tweaking for days and just can't seem to get right. I will be waiting by my trusty laptop, red pen in one hand and cocktail in the other.
