I was having one of my regular Facebook mumbles the other day and used the phrase “hot as a bastard oven” to describe the weather at the moment.  I think this is a very accurate way to sum it up.  However… My coworker thought it was the funniest thing she had read in forever, and was still giggling about it the next morning.

Yep.  Apparently I’m funny.  Who knew.

During the highly entertaining conversation, where she likened my comic genius to Melissa McCarthy (well, my circumference at least used to be the same before she got all healthy so there is some connection), she suggested that I start a vlog, or video-blog for those of you who are as up to date as me.

This alarmed me on many levels, for example:

1. What if I was only funny once a year?

2. I would have to use my actual voice (I heard me on my voicemail once *shudder*).

3. I would have to wear make up (which would far surpass my skills).

4. I can only just remember to write this blog once in a blue moon.

I wish that was the end of the list.  It’s not.  It’s also not necessary to let you in on my full crazy!!

Anyhoo…

Suna (coworker) is nothing if not persistent, and today she even managed to avert my attention from the sushi that was gliding by us (got to love all you can eat sushi) by introducing me to SnapChat filters!

Look!  Pretty and sparkly AND a butterfly crown!

And then the flowers!

However, SnapChat can also go horribly wrong – and I don’t just mean in circumstances like that awful Dani Mathes or whatever her evil face is called.  I mean like this….

We do not do switch face very well!

(Dani Mathes, in case you missed this scandal in the news, is the Playboy Bunny who took a picture of a lady in her gym changing room, and sent it with a derogatory comment to all of her followers.  If I was that lady, I would be having her charged with everything my attorney could think of.  Nasty cow.)

In conclusion, SnapChat is fun!  Well, I’m not sure how much fun it will be long term because I have played with all the filters now, but it was fun for an hour today!  However, if I do decide to brave the world of vlogging, you guys will of course be the first to know!

Now… All I have to do is work out how to change my username to match this account, and I’m set!!
