Google-able!!!

Today, is the first day of April. As such, it is not only the worldwide* holiday known as "chew very spicy gum and then see fake bugs everywhere" day, it is also THE FIRST DAY OF BEDA!

So, i signed up my blog at the front offices {ish}, wrote a couple intense "preparation blogs", stockpiled ideas like there's no tomorrow, wrote some horrible metaphors [need to get them out of the way early], and HERE WE ARE!

I'm hoping that since i DID sign in with the front desk {see above note} and SIJFWIWS** is now, in theory, a more widely-publicized blog***, we'll get some more business around here. Which means, the jokes need to be snappier, the commas need to know where they belong, and, ABOVE ALL, the topics need to be at there most interesting.

This being said, why don't we talk about ME.

You may look up to that title**** and see that it says "Google-able" with a handy smattering of exclamation points*****.

Laddies and their counterparts, it is true. I am, in fact Google-able. You can try it out, if you like. I IMPLORE you to, if it will help the cause. Go on. I'll wait.

I assume at this time you have. We may continue

I did a screen shot , for those of you unable to tear your eyes away from this page.

Do you see? DO you SEE?? There, under the interesting conversation, foreign language, and something about Memphis, is this beloved url!! Not only that, but it also includes some quirky quip i once said. FAME! At long last, we meet! No, this is not just some "All As" thing posted by the schoolboard, not just random happenstance that my first and last name [online, anyway] fall together and end up on Google. IT IS MY NAME!

I feel so very real. As if, by some poor smudge in Oregon suddenly being able to certify my existence *POOF* it is true! Some wackadoo in North Carolina can now say for certain to her husband, "Yes, its true Maddi Mifa-sometimes known as Dore Mifa- is real. I googled her the other day". And then THAT couple will cook pancakes and raise children who know of me. Those will be some mighty fine, worldly children, let me tell you. Someday, they too will find themselves google-able.

And with that, we come full circle. But enough about me. How about you? Let's go through BEDA together, my fine feathered friend.

*i don't know if this is ENTIRELY accurate. Do the Cambodians celebrate April Fool's Day? Perhaps THIS is why the world is broken right now...

**DANGG that is a long abbreviation! I need to fix this...

***My goodness gracious though, PLEASE do not think that is the sole reason in my signing up! GOOD HEAVENS, no! I signed up with integrity!

****You can recognize its title-osity by the slightly larger print, its waaay-up-there-ness, and above all, the ability to click it.

*****NOT an interrobang though, and THAT in itself may cause quite the controversy
