New Toy
I haven’t been writing.
This time I am not going to blame writer’s block. I am not even going to blame my blog for taking over and bashing the hell out of me. Actually, I don’t even feel guilty for not writing at this point…
This time, the writing is being vetoed by a much powerful force. I have purchased a new toy. I spent hours in bed with it this weekend to the point of exhaustion. There will certainly be a significant amount of embarrassment upon my next encounter with my neighbors, for they surely overheard my shrieks of excitement and enjoyment. Even Jack subtly exited the room on several occasions as if even he was embarrassed for me. I practically needed a “do not disturb” sign.
Whoa. I know you all have your minds on peen today (thanks Clown man), but what kind of gal do you take me for? I am talking about my new HD Webcam and accompanying movie editing software. I have many ideas swarming in my mind right now that it is hard for me to wrangle them all and put them into manageable cubbyholes in my mind. So for now, you can just watch me play with my new toy for about fifteen seconds. After all, that’s about how long it takes to get anyone off, right?
Please note: I am no longer just a pixel of your imagination. There will be much more to come once I master this thing.

Definitely excited. More of your beautiful face?? Girl, give me more!!
Coming right up!
So exciting!
It really is Cheryl! I don’t think I have left my apartment since I got it ;).
Oooooooh this is a dangerous combination that is bound to result in sheer vloggy magic.
My thoughts EXACTLY. Hey… we should collab sometime. After all, I look up to your Vloggy magic skills.
Now if there was just some way I could fit in that M&M dress, we’d have this in the bag.
Isn’t there another female M&M that is purple or something? That would make a good duo. If not, I am going to work on that… *writes to M&M factory*
That’s a good toy, that one!
I am having a flippin’ blast with it ma’am!
I can only imagine what we have in store for us; it’s kind of like waiting the first images from the Hubble Telescope. Really exciting, just a lot closer.
I’m flattered! I love being compared to space equipment. Fuck yeah!
HAHA!!! You turned into a cat for like one second and then you said ‘What?’ at the end!
I love your new editing software and webcam and I hope you have fun in your bed with it some more and then we can WATCH ANOTHER video you have made and then edited in your bed! HAHAHAAA you are a nice person and I like you!
You gave a very detailed synopsis of my film Monk Monkey. Have you considered writing reviews and such professionally?
I like you too.
Hmm…maybe I should. As long as I get to write them in a sexy area.
Could get hairy …. ZING.
I LOVE hairy zings!
I’m really glad you’re a crazy cat lady, just like I am. Did we just become best friends?
YEP.
I love this, so damn cute! I love that last shot when your voice changes!
A little trick I learned from a certain skilled individual 😉
\mm/ way too much rock for one hand!
So, Becca, you are really real then?
I knew it! Nothing gets by me, you know…
Have fun with your new toy… I develop a nervous laugh when one’s pointed on me.
I think if anyone else was actually in the room, and I attempted to record myself, it would yield the same result. It’s a strange thing Tom.
But yes, I am not artificial!
I love that you got Ace in there! Ha ha. That cracked me up. I’ll admit my mind was in the gutter, but an HD Webcam is pretty special. Congrats, Becca.
Thanks Amy! Sometimes you just know when you have made a good investment ;).
Becca,
I have accidentally clicked on the ad beneath your video, and got confused… Does Becca look like an 8-yr old boy when behind an HD webcam? It took me a few minutes and peen comments to come to realize that no, it wasn’t like that: you look like an 8-yr old ginger girl.
Le Clown
8 years old?! Seriously, that’s just not going to fly. I am scheduling botox RIGHT NOW.
I think you’re too young for that mug, but you rock the HD Webcam pretty well!
If only we could create a Daily Show rip-off starring our Über-talented circle of friends; wouldn’t that be something?
Good luck with the new toy!
There may be a series I am working on coming up that will include someone from our circle of friends… but I am pretty sure you all know who that might be.
I sport the cup only because it’s too ridiculous not too.
Fair reasoning.
If I can ever be of assistance, let me know.
Will do Hook!
Congrats on your new HD webcam. Nothing takes away writer’s block like Vlogging. Like I should know…So no funny thoughts on last nights catastrophe called the Oscars?
Thanks Ben. I didn’t say this new toy was going to help me in the writing department at all, but it is giving me joy for the moment. So I am going to bask in it. I have post ideas as well, so I am going to have to divvy my time up accordingly.
I don’t watch television. Man that sounded pretentious. But really, I don’t have cable.
You know some people tell me that not having a television is a good thing. But I can’t remember who told me because I am too busy lying on the couch.
I never looked back. Mainly because there was nothing on the screen to look back at. Now I just play a lot of Hitman and search for movies on Netflix.
I play a lot of Gears and occasionally watch Netflix. Maybe some day I will check out Hitman.
You are not fully living until that day, sir.
Maybe that is why I am so bitter. Because I haven’t played Hitman yet?
Bingo.
So cute. Pronounced kyu-uht.
I like that pronunciation!
The ZOMG cat made me laugh because it was so unexpected. That film made me laugh, made my cry, made me think about life. Surely it’ll be screened at Sundance next year.
It was the most life changing 16 seconds of work I have ever created so far, so your reaction is what I expected Jen. *bows*
I too am a little disappointed that it’s only an HD webcam. But that’s nice too.
Yes, but you are our crazy cat lady.
I’m looking forward to more videos of you because it’s almost like hanging out. Except that, this way, my awkward reactions are hidden from your view. It’s a win for everyone!
My non blogger friends like to give me hell (hence where the mug came from). Cats are an easy target. I am glad y’all accept me.
I am excited about doing some great skits as well as solo videos. A lot to learn and explore. Get your awkwardness ready to fly free.
Awkwardness ready!
Wait… you have non-blogger friends? I didn’t know we were allowed to have both. I cut ties with all of my real-life friends because I thought I had to choose. Dammit!
This “gift” was given to me before my blog days. They are long gone now Calahan.
Yeah, well, they’d better be. Fair’s fair.
If I can find a mug that says ‘Crazy Awesome Cat Lady’, I will get it for you.
You’re my favorite. If I find one that says ‘Awkward is The New Awesome’ it is yours.
If you find one that says ‘Awkward and Doesn’t Photograph Well, But Is Still Awesome As A Person’ then I can die happy.
I am on a mission.
I’ll wave you goodbye from the docks. Or the train station. Wherever you’ll be starting your mission from.
In true Calahan fashion.
I will wait until you’re far away before I cry. I will not let you see me cry!
I’ll be back before you know it. Don’t cry for me!
You’re asking an impossible task of me.
Okay, cry away. But I will be back to wipe those crocodile tears! With your mug in tote 🙂
A mug and a tote? I’m gonna be the happiest boy in the world!
You know, your phone has a camera too.
And a vibrate feature.
…
I once heard of the most bizarre app ever. It was a vibrator app on the Iphone. Seriously? Because I definitely want to put my phone in my crotch and then back up to my face for a nice chat with my mom.
NO.
Well, I haven’t read that post on Clown on Fire yet, so naturally my first thought was about a webcam.
Don’t tell me my joke tanked?
Well, you know, my second thought kind of saved it 🙂
Whew!
I just want to ask of society; what’s wrong with being a cat lady? Seriously, people.
Yes, that was a weird rant.
I am with you. People can have ten dogs and everyone thinks it’s rad. Have half of a cat and you are basically a witch.
So true. It’s speciesist!
