Goal #79: Done, with video proof!

May 4, 2010

Yesterday I was all Food! and Health! and Woe is Me!, and since tomorrow is weigh-in day, I thought today I’d give you all a break from the weight-loss stuff for a change. And what better way to do that than to declare another item officially checked off my 101 in 1001 list?

That’s right: Number 79 is done as of this past Saturday. And I’ve got proof. But first, if you haven’t already checked out my list, do it! I’m finally feeling like I’m making some progress, at least in some of the categories.

Anyway, in case you’re a party pooper and refuse to go see the list to find out what #79 was, I’ll just tell you. (Punks.) Number 79 was to sing karaoke! So sing I did…though not terribly well. But listen! I was pretty toasted, and it was late at night, and I was full of all kinds of crappy, carby, bloaty food and I have no idea how a full stomach might actually affect my singing ability, but just go with it, will ya? Plus it was really loud in there, which actually turned out to be beneficial because maybe you can’t hear just how off-pitch I was? Hopefully? But whatever. I’m sharing it with you anyway, because I am nothing if not a giver.

And here are some photos from the fair on Sunday…mostly because I felt really cute in my strapless top and polka-dotted scarf/headband thing. Also to (hopefully) leave you with a better impression of my awesomeness than if I’d just ended this post after the karaoke video.

Me and the birthday girl...and yes, I'm totally naked. TOTALLY. *snicker*

Irony (or ignorance?) at its very best. Lady leaning RIGHT next to a "Please don't lean on the fence" sign...

Proof of my nacho fail. My face is saying, "These are really salty, but I'm still going to wolf down the whole thing."

And here's my "yeah, that was a mistake" face.

Bunny from HELL.

We're still all sappy and newlyweddy, don't even worry.

    Not only did you sing karaoke, but you put it on film and shared it with us? Wow, I’m impressed. I don’t think you could get me drunk enough to sing in front of other people, let alone film it for historical preserve. Go on with your bad self!

    Pffft… you were not off-key! It just sounds that way in the video ’cause of all the noise.

    “Bunny from hell” is totally right– I think it was Bunnicula and his cousins. Did you ever read that book as a kid?

    p.s. do you still have the video of me singing? I’d love to see it! Even though you can probably hear me even less :-/

    I’m terrified of karaoke. I can’t sing to save my life, so I don’t know if I could ever do this.

    Major props to you for tackling it :)

    I just want to yell “shut up” to everybody, so I can hear you sing! LOL What I heard of it sounded good. You have a beautiful voice! Congrats to marking another item off your list.

    YAY!! You totally pwned me in the singing video – I didn’t have the guts to un-password mine!! Good for you!! :)

    Ok, you really are brave. The end.

    I really like your headband! That just gave me an idea for something different to do with my hair this summer. Thanks!

    YAY! Good for you! This item is still looming large on my list, I think I just need to suck it up and do it. I’m such a chicken. A tone-deaf, off-key chicken.
