Today is Dr. Seuss's birthday and I suggest everyone crawl up with their favorite Seuss adventure (because we all have one!) and just be a kid again!!! Or you can watch this ... and feel awful about growing up.
I believe last year, I wrote how my fave Seussical book is "Oh, The Places You'll Go" ... and it still is. ENJOY!
Also, Justin Bieber turned 18 yesterday ... So I am officially, legally allowed to say that he is super adorable ... and, yes, I'd marry him for his money. Justin, call me.
Happy Belated Bieber Birthday Day!!!!
Hey, I just met you and this is crazy but here’s my number, so call me (maybe). It’s hard to look right at you, baby, but here’s my number, so call me (maybe). Hey, I just met you and this is crazy but here’s my number, so call me (maybe). And all the other boys try to chase me but here’s my number, so call me (maybe). (Call Me Maybe, Carly Rae Jepsen)
PS. Click the link for the official video! It's hilarious. I can't find it to post here.
Considering we can't rely on the Mayans to get things right ... or our resolutions to get fulfilled this year (because let's face it ... they probably won't) ... there aren't a lot of things that you can count on when the New Year rolls around, but I assume there is one thing that will never let people down ... and that is the New Year's Eve Induced Hangover.
Last night a couple of friends and I got together to ring in the New Year. We had a hearty evening of playing Pictionary-Around-The-World, Hungry Hungry Hippos (I swear that game is rigged for the green Hippo to win ... Just saying!), and Apples to Apples (Helen Keller always wins) ... Yes, I know, we go hard.
We also watched Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve special (OMG ... Justin Bieber covered the Beatles with Carlos Santana! So my world was considerably rocked! Anyone else's!?!?!? HUH HUH?!!) and I noticed something watching it ... People were freakin' sloshed.
As far as I knew, drinking on the streets of Manhattan was illegal ... but I definitely saw the camera scan over loads of people loading themselves up on bottles of champagne and other fun drinkity drinks that they could, presumably, sneak in and hide from the hundreds of NYPD cops lining the streets ... and hanging out with Lady Gaga.

On a less humorous note, as I drove home ... it was kind of sad to see the number of people pulled over by cops ... and the number of cars that were in accidents. I'm taking an educated guess and saying a good number of those were alcohol-induced issues. Totally not smart on the part of the driver ... As we all know, you are not only risking your own life ... but MY life ... and the lives of everyone else on the road who are just trying to drive home and live to see next year (if the Mayans aren't right about the whole world-ending-at-the-end-of-2012 thing).
So, anyway, for those of you that I saw on TV swaying back and forth ... not to the rockin' music of Gaga and Bieber but just because you couldn't stand straight ... and for those that couldn't drive within the designated lanes on the highway early this morning ... Although nothing is set is stone for the rest of 2012, I'm almost positive about one thing ... Grab yourself a bottle of water, three Advil, and some carbs ... because this morning won't be your best.
Happy New Year!
Bottles poppin' 'til we can't stand. We keep it rocking 'til 6 am. New York to London over to Japan. Turn it up, turn it up, mash it up. We gonna party like, party like, like it's the end of the world. We gonna party like, like it's 2012. You know that it doesn't matter as long as we got each other. Turn it up, turn it up, mash it up. It ain't the end of the world. [2012 (It Ain't The End) - Jay Sean ft. Nicki Minaj]
Y'all knew it was coming ... My rant on this Biebs story. Y'all just didn't know when! Sorry, but grad school has been OWNING my life. But, here it is. The "IT AIN'T HIS" rant!
Now I'm sure at this point, you all have heard about this trifling bitch Mariah Yeater who is claiming that Justin Bieber fathered her 3-month-old son, after some 30-second bathroom tryst. This comes after she claimed the child was fathered by her ex-boyfriend (who, in case you are wondering, she beat and then ended up being arrested for battery when he denied being the father).
Oh yeahhhhh, Justin Bieber was her SECOND CHOICE BABY DADDY!
Now, here's my thing. If you are going to make up some crazy-ass story to get yourself some 15 minutes of fame and some dolla dolla bills in your pocket then at least pick a better celebrity ... Because I mean, come on, we all know the Biebs is all about being virgin unless you are definitely ready and you are absolutely with someone you loveeeeee (ermmmm ... Selena Gomez, anyone!?). AND, on top of that, this woman's 3-month-old child would have been conceived when the Biebs was 16 years old, and she was 19!!!! WHAT?! She's willing to be convicted of statutory rape for this!?
GIRLLLLL, you all kinds of crazy.

I am interested to see where this story ends up going because I know right now Justin Bieber is simply denying that he knows her and that the baby is his ... (OBVI, because it's TRUE). But this woman seems like a total loony basket, so I am just wondering if the Biebs will ever succumb and take the paternity test. Or if this crazy will end up trailing him on the road because, I mean, its not too hard to track down a celeb. What do you really need to do? Google them?
Actually, that's pretty scary. I don't want to give any more crazines any ideas.
Don't need that TMZ all in our privacy. Use them lips for kissin' girl if you wanna ride with me, and if you wanna tell somebody then we can call the whole thing off, no problem. You can go your way and I'll go mine but I'd rather spend a little time with you, yeah ... I don't wanna see you tweet about J.B 'cause the only people that know is you and me ... So, tell me are you gonna kiss, kiss and tell? (Kiss and Tell, Justin Bieber)
Easter marks the resurrection of Jesus Christ for Christians all around the world ... This teenager is extremely excited about it ... Maybe she's singing hymns or something.
Oh wait ... Never mind ... She just got Justin Bieber tickets in an Easter egg ... I guess God loves her a whole lot, especially because they're front row tickets and "he might be able to see [her] and ... it's the best day of [her] life ... NO NO, the day he falls in love with [her] is gonna be the best day of [her] life."
Happy Easter!
****
In all seriousness though, Happy Easter to those celebrating. Enjoy your day. And here's the song that this blog reminded me of ...
There's never a question in your message, never a moment without your presence. There's never a doubt in my mind that I'll wake up to find your Glory defined and I will finally bow at your feet. I will lift up your name in honor and praise. When I cross over Jordan, I know that I'll be running home to you. (Glory Defined, Building 429)
It's Read Across America Day today ... which is celebrated on Dr. Suess's Birthday so not only am I crawling up with a good book today (Ok, I crawled up with "One Fish Two Fish, Red Fish Blue Fish" as I substituted at the elementary school) but I am also suggesting everyone else do the same! If not, just watch this ... This is BY FAR my favorite Dr. Suess book ever written.
Also, I didn't wish Justin Bieber a HAPPY 17th BIRTHDAY yesterday!!!! So Happy Birthday to him too!
