And now for something completely different, Gibby Goo Bop

| 10 Comments

Is it a coincidence that on the same day I realize that it might be time to think about a few changes for the future, I also find myself the recipient of  a viral email from Gibby Goo Bop?

I think so.

And while I was going to start ending the week on this blog with a list of fun links, I think I’ll hold off until next Friday… BECAUSE, Did you get it too? Right? Because I know that only something like 65 billion internet users are also the proud owners of email accounts… The email, just dripping with all kinds of viral anecdotes, reads:

hi ry!
your almost-daily observations are more than almost-true!
your blog’s not for the birds…  ry, i thought you knew!!
everybody will snooze blue
so I made this video just for you…
ENJOY!!!
love,
Gibby
So personal, yet so NOT that I immediately became panicked and concerned that my relatively new email account had been hacked to death with a kitchen knife or, better yet, ruefully pillaged in the name of free internet. Because what’s worth doing it if it isn’t done with RUE, right? And don’t worry. I don’t feel that special.

So while I’m sitting here trying to trace out the new master plan… which includes all kinds of fun things like career changes, babies, and of course MARTHA (and the lack thereof)… The goal of all goals. The way things are GOING TO BE, it wouldn’t hurt to waste a good three minutes and fifty seven seconds… because WHAT ELSE are you going to accomplish when you could be watching this? I MEAN REALLY?!?
I think I liked it, but then I didn’t… it’s all kind of like the weird piece of chicken… What do you think?

Did Somebody Turn out the LIGHTS?

| 1 Comment

A few weeks ago For the Birds celebrated it’s one year mark — picture me sitting at the keyboard with a party hat on….vodka bottle rolling on the floor…  silly string still stuck to the monitor.. I mentioned in my post that FTB has built a following with over 20,000 site visitors. This is a rough estimate, because  — come on, really. You don’t think that I actually believe that 20,000+ of you are out there reading these almost daily observations… And thanks to all of the lovely comments that I received pointing this out. Side note, I am not that BOARING Ms. Kelly from Kentucky — and although you don’t know how to spell, I might have better things to do with my time but I choose to do this — and if it’s just not that interesting to you — then STOP visiting. But, keep checking in if you must, I am into all things that depreciate. 

So, getting to the point, I do know — thanks to those smart heads over at Feed Burner, that we do have a factual regular readership of 25 concrete, real-live people. That’s right – a lovely and lucky 25. And to you I am calling out. In the next few days the following will be happening:

  1. For the Birds will turn out the lights for a much needed beauty rest.
  2. For the Birds will return, refreshed and better than ever–but only viewable at the new (still shiny) URL – http://forthebirdsblog.com
  3. The old ugly domain http://designsigh.typepad.com/forthebirds will GO AWAY, so DON’T GO THERE
  4. Those of you that have the old domain/URL in your readers, you will need to change to the new domain.
  5. For the Birds will only be accessible from http://forthebirdsblog.com
  6. This has very little to do with the evil birders over at forthebirds.com 

Unfortunately, I don’t have specific timing on this event–otherwise I would fill you in. But the wheels are in motion. We’ve checked the logs, Batman, and will make a swift return… So, if you happen to be settling in for the evening, and pull up to FTB for some mild entertainment, please don’t be alarmed if you receive some sort of error message or blank screen–We are still here… we are coming back–this has very little to do with the evil birders at forthebirds.com AND, the best is yet to come… More shameless self-promotion of multiple personality abundance -  I want you to know but I don’t anxiety disorder…  have I mentioned most of us here are geminis? Any questions? Email me – rmsatbwdstudiodotcom.
