ARIYNBF Cinco de Mayo episode recap

Perhaps you missed last week’s Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend and you feel lost and lonely inside? Or perhaps you saw it but want to relive it but only have about 8 minutes? Thank god I put together this short clip of moments from the show and about that I have some things to say. Here they are:

1) Editing takes FOREVER!

2) Especially when you’re just learning.

3) But see, part of me thinks I should get really good at editing because that would coincide with what I’m doing these days (i.e. making web video) however the other part me says I’m not exactly a teenager and the learning curve is steep and I already have an area of excellence, which is writing, and why am I veering away from that? I mean, not to be all full of myself, but I’m a pretty fantastic writer and it’s an area where I stand out versus editing where even if I get all good at it, there are going to be a million people who are better.

4) Holy cow, I did not intend to be all intense and me me me in number three of this post.

5) I was going to wait until number 7.

6) But see, my birthday is coming up which is why all this stuff is kicking around my brain. In fact, I’m pretty sure I was this way last year. Let’s check. Here. And here. And here’s another post from the CA bday trip.

7) Incidentally, I was thinking that the hardest thing to really accept about interpersonal relationships, which I tend to avoid, is that no one can read your mind and no one knows what you’re thinking unless you tell them. It’s taken me a long time to learn that.

8) But back to this video, I want to thank all of you and all the guests and everyone who is a friend of the show for help in making the show so fantastic. Oh you’ve got to be kidding me. The number eight inside a parenthesis makes a smiley face wearing sunglasses?

9) And happy Mother’s day!

10) Maybe your mom would like a t-shirt?
