Now I have phantom helmet syndrome

I was on The 404 today and wore a helmet the whole time to protect myself from accidentally looking beautiful. You can go here to read about the morning from their perspective (and to listen to the podcast and watch the video.)

Here are some photos. Ooooh, photos. You love photos.

Here I am in the monitor seeing if it’s safe. (It was.)

Here I am with the guys, protecting myself from accidentally falling job offers.

Here I am with Jeff Bakalar. My head looks so naked in this photo!

And here I am with Wilson Tang.

And here I am with Justin Yu. Despite the fact that I’m a wacky/zany person, I seldom make the wacky/zany face in photos hence many shots like the above. My repertoire is more limited to talking into bananas/carrots and wearing helmets, obviously. And, as the above picture would attest: looking pasty. I need a tan and a helmet.

    “I’m glad your more prepared with that helmet for any oncoming attack from the North Koreans. I think You just aggravated Kim Jong Il’s hatred for you even more…………”

    I caught the 404 show today. That was fun. I hope you brought the helmet home. Some things are meant to be, and you were meant to have that helmet. It's not a puppy, but it's the next best thing.

    Also, got to hear Boinkity's voice! A fine job, my friend.

    I like the 404 guys, but their dating advice leaves much to be desired. Your way is best. Although I'd never rule out meeting someone at a bar. My best friends met that way. Now they have 9 incredible kids, (twin boys the first time,) and are very happy people.

    But I think you should marry your manager. Someone to handle PR.

    I dont know what I like better, the first picture of you sneaking into the shot or your caption for it. Sometimes the simple humor is the best. 😉

    haha.. I was all freaked out about doing my poem. I messed it up the first time, so I called back to do it again. It was great to see Alison's face while she listened. I got the impression that she was thinking, “Is that it? How short!”

    Thanks Alison! MUAH!

    You look great in the pictures. Don't worry about making wacky/zany faces. It seems like Justin didn't mind to fill in that role at all. http://www.flickr.com/photos/excalipoor/3449655
