...spotlight Breighan in a blog?

Well, Breighan, who as circumstances have it looked completely stunning last night, has been a-flutter with ideas for my blog. As I saw it, I had two options. First, I could use one of her ideas for an actual blog entry. Don't get me wrong, that would be fine. SHe came up with some decent ideas. Well, maybe one...ok a half. But, I decided to go with option 2: write a blog ABOUT her ideas and speculate on the potential of each one. Actually, I use the word "ideas" in the loosest sense of the word meaning only 2.

Today's idea wasn't so much an idea as a random comment with the phrase "you should write a blog about that" following it. Thanks to an away message, Breighan realized that "Hofbrauhaus" has remarkable similarities to my last name. She recommended that I nickname my apartment the "Hoff" brauhaus. Oh, and then write a blog about it. Although that would be a short blog entry (in fact, just read the previous paragraph up to this sentence, and that would be the extent of the blog), Breighan accidentally stumbled across a decent blog entry idea. My apartment needs a nickname. Temporarily I've been calling it "the stoplight" due to its red/green/yellow color scheme. However, with nicknames such as "the fortress of solitude" and "that sketched out place Anna used to live in" floating about, I'm not sure if the stoplight cuts it. I'm happy to hear ideas!

Blog idea #2: "interview yourself." Breighan had the idea that I could create a video of me interviewing myself. Although quite innovative in a Phoebe/Ursula kinda way, it's quite a daunting task. I even thought of doing it in print form, because it is a half-way decent idea. But what would I ask myself? What don't I know about myself? I don't know how I am when I sleep. BUt I couldn't really answer that. Wait, Breighan would know!!! I should just interview her.

Well, that does it for this blog post. With any luck Breighan is still speaking to me. Please, I encourage all blog post suggestions! And come up with apartment names!!!

I have to say, I have already suggested the Hoffmannshaus and was not only not mentioned on a blog, but was shot down.

I too get mad when people don't credit me for ideas they proceed to knock down.

Well, annamal, my actual suggestion was Hoff"Man"haus, and Brian mistakenly wrote two paragraphs on a misreading of my IM message! Perhaps he was too distracted by my "stunning look" to read my message carefully...

But I must admit, I do enjoy being spotlighted for blog entries :-))

Furthermore, I think Hoffmanhaus has a nice ring to it.... quite clever!
