Hey!
First, let me say that I'm beyond touched at all the sweet comments left at the "taking time off" post. You guys are the best. The past few weeks have proven therapeutic and I'm ready to revisit the land of Blogostan. Thanks so much for your kindness and patience.
Okay, I tried to participate in Talk Like a Pirate Day, but I've discovered that I can't maintain an accent to save my life. I'd start off with "Arrrrrgh, th' cat's taken a dump on th' stairrrrhs!" but within two sentences, I'd migrate to a bad Scottish accent and bust out with "Ooch, Mojo, ye're staippin' in it!" Similarly, whenever I do my impression of my best friend's Mexican-American dad, it's a matter of seconds before I'm in my Father Guido Sarducci voice. On the other hand, I can do the bad Scottish and Father Guido voices indefinitely. Invite me to your next party!

Having slaved through a grueling 4-day work week, I can scarcely organize my thoughts enough to craft a well-written post on one topic, so I'll shift all the contents of my brain over to you in this post, like handing someone a half-filled bucket. And yes, I will grunt as I do so.
- First off, my post about the Star Wars Holiday Special is included in the Star Wars Blog-A-Thon at Edward Copeland's movie blog. There are so many awesome posts there, it's an honor to be included! If you have any interest in the two trilogies, I urge you to visit the 'thon.
- Earlier this week, I think I injured my right shoulder by sleeping on it ... wrong. That's the only thing I can figure. And maybe I'm feeling a little sensitive because I turned 36 on Monday, but the idea that I can hurt myself in my sleep makes me feel not just old but decrepit. I swear, I can see the 5:30 bedtime and the Rascal right around the corner. - I was hoping my bosses would let us leave early for the holiday we

I'm still feeling the fallout from the YouTube Account Deletion Debacle, but those of you who read the I Love New York recaps know that I've managed to replace the videos in those posts with vids hosted at DailyMotion. I also managed to save videos from two shows of the second season of Flavor of Love: "2-1: Somethin Stinky This Way Comes" and "2-2: Riding the Pole on the Bus with my Sister." I'll be updating those episodes soon. The rest are, tragically, lost.
I'll also be updating the videos for the Road House and The Decline of Civilization Part II: The Metal Years recaps, as well as for the Star Wars Holiday Special and hopefully Dracula too. Those are pretty time-intensive, but I have a bit of extra time on my hands this week as there were no new episodes of I Love New York or Top Design.
My plan to relieve the longing of the lovelorn on Valentine's Day (through icky, traumatizing videos) has become part of the Carnival of Hijacked Holidays over on Bah! Humbug! I'm conside
