April 21, 2008 | Filed under: vlogalicious, videoblogging Week

I’ve been away for far too long. Busybusy, not much to report, just busybusy. What better time to get back into the swing than Videoblogging Week? One video a day for seven days. After NaVloPoMo, a week should be easy as pie.

Last year for VBWeek I reviewed some of my favorite good, cheap foods of NYC. This time, it’s personal.

Pretty much every year for as far back as I can remember someone gave me a daily diary as a Christmas gift. Being the pack rat that I am, I still have most of them. I’m not sure what made me think that reading them in public was a good idea but I was inspired by a recent episode of my favorite radio show in which a man read entries from his childhood journals expressing his deep desire to become the prime minister of Israel. It’s what you’d expect from a teenager’s journal: intense, outrageous and touching. It’s also seriously cringeworthy.

I’m expecting a whole lot of cringing going on here, for certain.

I haven’t read all the way through the diaries and don’t know what embarrassment is in store; it could be really bad so this little project may end abruptly. I can always go back to good, cheap eats, right?

Let’s start with 1983-1984, the years documented in the journal with a unicorn on the cover. From what I can recall, those were very good years. The unicorn years.

Why, surely you are headed to Jonny’s Par-Tay over at jonnygoldstein.com, right? That’s where I’ll be hanging out live (!!!) with Jonny and Heath, the Batman Geek! Come by, say “hi” and get vlogsessed!

Did I mention that it’s live? LIVE at 9PM Eastern! What, you were going to watch that idiotic LA multi-disciplinary clinic show? That ‘Private Practice’ doody? Come on, the par-tay will be soooooooo much better than that!!

Watch the video

Really, this is self-explanatory…no supporting text necessary other than to say that my duet with the lovely and talented Anne Walk** cannot be seen here. How was I supposed to read the lyrics off the prompter, sing and and film myself at the same time? Oh, that footage is out there someplace…

(actually, we were pretty darn good!!)

Fine, fine performances all around!

**Sonny to my Cher? Cher to my Sonny? We may never know…
