Random!

I know it's early, but that last blog made me begin to think. Somehow that brought me to make some New Years Resolutions. Here are some:

1. Start doing what I want and not what others want. 

2. Stop bitching about everything on my blog (well, maybe stop bitching *so much*), and make the world a happier place.

3. Meet more people. Make more friends. [They kind of correlate.]

4. Have more fun.

5. Be honest with myself.

6. Allow myself to be genuinely happy, however that can come about.

Moving on..

So I was googling my name today [Yes, I do that sometimes when I'm really bored. You should try it one day.] and the results turned out a lot of "Jodie"s and "Hinckley"s, but not a lot of "Jody Hinkley"s. In the results, there were a lot of combinations of "Jody", "Jodi", "Jodie" and "Hinkley", "Hinckley". Most of the results were about Jodie Foster (the Academy-Award winning actress) and John Hinckley (the guy who tried to kill President Ronald Reagan to impress her[crazy, much?]). [No, I was not named from a combination of their names.] So after seeing this, I decided that I want to become famous enough so that my name (that I thought was fairly unique that I wouldn't have this problem) will not be overshadowed by an attempted killer and an actress who I don't really like. Yes, this is kind of self-centered, but I don't care. I'm not adding this to my list of New Years Resolutions because I think this is going to take more than just a year. It took Jodie Foster a life-time to become a famous actress, and it took John Hinckley a lifetime of craziness to decide he wanted to assassinate the president before he became infamous. Plus, I don't consider this to be like the "I'm going to lose weight," "I'm going to be a better person," and "I'm giving up my vices and going back to school" (RENT, anyone?).

This is "As We Stumble Along" from The Drowsy Chaperone. It stars Bob Martin as the "Man in Chair," Sutton Foster as "Janet van de Graff," and Beth Leavel as the "Drowsy Chaperone." Hilarious. The whole show is like this. Too bad it closed... Well, enjoy! 

BAM!
