Help please.

Sometimes I forget I have a blog.

I'm serious. I get caught up in other, less-important activities like laundry, grocery shopping, and eating, and suddenly I think "oh crap! I started a blog six months ago!" and then I try to think of something really funny to write about.

Which brings me to now. Does anyone have anything funny they'd like me to write about? What about the way I keep ending sentence in prepositions? Anything on that there?

I think it would be super-awesome-amazing-cool if everyone posted a general topic in the comments section of something I could potentially write about. I mean it. Giraffes, chicken pox, Beyoncé . . . you name it! Because I am looking for inspiration. And -- you inspire me.

In the meantime, I'm gonna saddle-up on the 'ol comedy high horse and act like a television reviewer. What did you think of the Saturday Night Live premiere? My future best friend Tina Fey was wonderful, as always, and overall I enjoyed the episode. Here are some highlights and lowlights:

1. Highlight: Keenan Thompson yelling at the new cast members in the game-show sketch "New Cast Member or Member of Arcade Fire?" Great delivery. Also, that sketch had a strong ending: rare.

2. Highlight: Drunk Uncle.
I usually get sick of characters who are on Weekend Update all the time, but for some reason Drunk Uncle makes me laugh every time. 

3. Highlight: The taxodermy sketch. I mean it was clearly stupid, but in a way I appreciated.

4. Lowlight: The ex-porn star sketch. I'm over it; anyone else? I think Vanessa Bayer and Cecily Strong are funny, but it's too similar every time. And it's long. Why so long??

So yes. Overall good. Next week is host/musical guess Miley Cyrus . . . I am just hoping she performs that song "Wrecking Ball" and licks a sledge hammer a bunch of times. You?

And of course I would weigh-in on the much-discussed series finale of Breaking Bad, but the thing is I only watched the first season like five years ago so I'm a little behind. Don't tell me what happens though. I'm assuming Walt changes his ways and goes back to teaching and ends up winning Teacher of the Year and writing inspiring children's books. That seems like where it was heading.



Comment with some topic ideas, please!  Right down there.
