I Am . . . The Pink Armageddon

I'm back bitches!! **throws arm in the air Broadway-diva style**

The Pink Armageddon needed a break. I was not inspired to post anything, I was held up by trying to be important or clever or even interesting. I'm lazy and a procrastinator by nature. So sue me.

I was just thinking about my original intent -- to not offer anything "new, entertaining, or of merit." So that is where I will return. This is my Back to Basics post. From this point on, I will not try to post long, important diatribes on politics (for that, see Some Guys Are Normal, please). I'm just going to post quick snippets of pop culture-y things. YouTube videos that I enjoy. Or about some song I stole from Wacky on The Junk that I'm crushing on at the moment.

Consider The Pink Armageddon as no more nutritious than any ol' issue of US Weekly or an episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta (gawd I loved that show).

If any of you, my dear readers, are still out there, thank you for sticking with me. I'm back and as unimportant as ever. And I'm doing this for you, my fans, because you keep me grounded.

So, what's happened since my pre-Hurrican Ike post on September 9? Here's a quick list in no order, chronological, importance, or otherwise:

Madonna came to town, and held court at a baseball stadium. Queens were everywhere.

Hurricane Ike also came to town, and he ruined our carpet and stole cable from us for over a month. As God is my witness, as God is my witness, I'll never not have cable again - no, nor any of my folks! If I have to lie, steal, cheat, or kill, as God is my witness, I'll never not have cable again.

I saw "Rachel Getting Married," and I was sad for about a day. WOW what a movie and what a bunch of amazing performances.

Ditto for "Milk" -- Sean Penn needs that Oscar again.

Dexter Season Three has just catapulted the show into Six Feet Under/Sopranos status of greatness.

Obama brought hope back to the US. That election made me proud to be an American (for real, and I know it sounds "important," but this one can't go without mention).

I saw Dame Edna AND Madame in concert. Dame Edna was amazingly funny, but I may have been the only one laughing.

Beyonce pretended to be some girl named Sasha, and when T's not looking, I pretend to be Beyonce. Can "Single Ladies" and "If I Were A Boy" be any better? And the videos? If those videos can't bring the medium back, artists need to stop worrying about making them. WOW, great songs and great videos.

Rosie O'Donnell couldn't get her variety show off the ground. It's too sad, because I live for that crazy Rosie. She makes me happy. Again, I may be the only one on that, too.

"Kath & Kim" premiered on NBC and has quickly become my new favorite camp TV show. If you decide you can only watch one episode, go to NBC.com and watch the one called, "Gay." Thank you Whitney Houston and cable ladies.

Why don't you tell me what you've been up to since September 9?

I leave you with this. Expect more of these and less content. Come here when you need to find out what I think is fierce or funny. That's all I've got for you.
