Everyone Says 'Sookie'
I am glad that I obsessively caught up on the show so that I got the joke.

Today's the day! The Great Beer Walk!
Here is the idea:
Beer + Long Walk = Tremendously Good Time
TODAY!
If you are coming, please register for the event on Facebook and invite your friends!
5:15 PM at Wolff's Biergarten!
Then we will head to McGeary's, followed by Savannah's/Dublin Underground, Red Square and the Lionheart!
It will be a great time, just like last years was!
You will get a sticker, just like the one above.
This year, I am asking for a $5 donation to be collected at Wolff's (and it is a donation, a suggestion, like at the museum) to benefit Habitat for Humanity.
This year, the walk is just over two miles.

Oh, and if you are wondering who is at Alive at Five? Don't worry about it.

Keywords
I love some of this weeks keywords.
(NB: These are not what brings most people here, just what strikes my fancy). Almost all of the search engine traffic that comes here is about (in this order) Facebook commenting, things to do in Albany and people looking for the definition of futility. Hah to the last one!)

- Hermon Raju is still generating traffic.
- "Sky Bully" which is one of my favorite descriptions. I first heard of the term from Joss Whedon.
- democracy is dead happy holidays (which is from a SNL Skit)
- famous people who have smoked crack
- great moments in drunk history (which is a Will Ferrell skit)
- guilty pleasure summer songs
- "I like my eggs poached"

And I admit that I sing to myself and occasionally it is the Bangles...
(I am writing this because my brother told me to, because it is funny, and because I do try to do what he asks of me.)
I have written about my habit of singing out-loud (in the shower, walking down the street, sitting next to someone in a truck) before and anyone who has spent more than two hours with me has heard me break out spontaneously. One of my friends, who I do not think believed me, picked me up early at my apartment, and knowing that I was running late, I texted her telling her that the door was unlocked and the coffee was hot and that she should make her self at home until I was ready. She entered, got herself coffee, and relaxed with Curly (this was two years ago...maybe three) and she listened. I thought that I was making good time, and I was happily singing "This Charming Man" unaware that my friend had already arrived.
When I came up the stairs and saw her sitting on the couch, and then heard the laughter in her voice, I knew my secret had been "exposed".
I am not generally embarrassed by my behavior (largely because I do not care) but in this case, I am not at all. This is fun, goofy, and shows that I am not generally self-conscious around the people who have heard me break out into song. It shows that I am comfortable with you. It is a trust thing, and feel honored if you hear me say "We don't need no walkie-talkie" outloud.
"Get to the point"...
Yeah, yeah, yeah...what is the point?
The point is that last evening, I was un-self-consciously singing while I was in my bathroom. Little did I know (and whenever I use that phrase, I think of Stranger Than Fiction, which is really underrated and quite enjoyable...watch it and you will understand.) that my brother was in his bathroom. I started singing. With feeling.
What was the song?
Yep, I was singing the Bangles. Yep, it was Eternal Flame. No, I do not know why I was singing this particular song.
And had my brother not mentioned it, I would not have remembered singing it.
But...mention it he did.
"Hey, you do that blogging thing, right?"
"Well, not right now. I am reading something."
"Not what I mean. Next time you blog, it is important that you let everyone know that you were singing the Bangles, loudly, and really meaning it, while you were in the bathroom."
I did try to get him on camera, telling me (and the world) what he thought of my singing and my location, but he did not think that was a good idea.
So, little brother, here it is.
I am not embarrassed, nor should I be...
Is this yearning...an eternal flame?
