Guess what? This little old blog is having a birthday this week! It will turn 1 come Saturday! Can you believe it? Time flies even faster in Cyberspace, doesn’t it?
I’ve got some goodies planned this week, but first, in honor of So about what I said…‘s birthday, I’d love to hear your own stories. You may recall I wrote about this very topic in one of my Dating With Disabilities columns.
I’ve always said “So about what I said” is a far more powerful five-word phrase than “It’s not you, it’s me.” Or, at least, that’s been the case in my experience (Crush Boy, anyone? Or how about Young Guns? You see, I usually find myself backtracking like that after I say the first thing that comes into my head and leaks out of my mouth before I have even a second to censor myself. my moments usually fall into one of two categories:
*You tell your guy friend you just might be in love with him
*You spill your love guts to a guy you just met (my personal favorite)
That’s my whole problem. I have zero censors. Either that, or they’re just in need of batteries. And if that’s the case, is there some sort of psychological meaning as to why I haven’t changed them?
What are the “So about what I said…” moments from your own life? I’d love to hear them.

Happy Almost Birthday!! Your blog is such a delight everyday.
My moment revolves around a mess, I'm debating saying to this guy that im in love with, oh yeah he's my best friend, oh yeah told me he is dating someone & that I shouldn't be weirded out because he doesn't like me, and then told me i could bring around guys if i was dating, and I want to say to him "So about what I said" on Saturday with the gotcha & the oh okay that I actually meant to say I can't be your friend cuz it hurts too much.
He's not speaking to me at the moment for whatever reason…so I don't know if Im going to get my moment to ever tell him the truth. But with the type of guy he is, it wouldn't matter anyway so Im just going to let it go. I think??
Guys are confusing & don't know what they want sometimes. It's good girl to have no censors. =)

An Leaked Lady GaGa Track was Dug Up this morning with no traces of where it came from.
Some say that it was discovered in GaGa's Record Label's headquarters.
