grazie, grazie!!!!
I have just returned from my week in the beautiful Venezia!!!!
(*does a twirl in ceremonial gown and sash*)
I'd like to thank Ben for the prize and for finally overcoming his baldism (hatred of the bald), my agency for their continued support during my failed hair transplant "procedures" and all of the people who voted for me and could see beyond the scalp to the person within (*begins to wail tears of joy, 'Oscar-style'!!!*)
I never dreamed that one day the hairless would be regarded as "beautiful" and that we could be even accepted into civilised society let alone win such a...ummm...prestigious award!!!!!

(*rushes offstage to polish head, change into best garish bow-tie and waistcoat, making sure not dishevelling sash*)


i always part, as my agency is painfully aware, with a song and this occasion befits a great song that sums up my mood, so (*begins to play piano*)

I am what I am,
I don't want praise, I don't want pity.
I bang my own drum,
Some think it's noise, I think it's pretty.
And so what if I love each sparkle and each bangle?
Why not try to see things from a different angle?
Your life is a sham 'till you can shout out:
I am what I am!
I am what I am,
And what I am needs no excuses.
I deal my own deck.
Sometimes the ace, sometimes the deuces.
It's my life and I want to have a little pride in
My life, and it's not a place to have to hide it.
Life's not worth a damn 'till you can shout out:
I am what I am!

what's that? encore i hear you cry well how about West Side Story (*clears throat*):

I feel pretty,
Oh so pretty
That the city
Should give me it's key
A committee should
Be organized
To honor me

I feel dizzy,
I feel sunny
I feel fizzy and funny and fine
And so pretty,
Miss America
Can just
Resign

BALD AND PROUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, by the way, a guy that works with my husband went & the hair transplants. It was AWEFUL! It went wrong & he red/purple bloteches were he didn't have hair. His head looked like checkerboard. He would have a splotch of hair then the red/purple blotch. You didn't know to laugh or cry for him. Was really sad (but funny too).

I love the prize but laugh that it increases toughness.

Loved the prize...Somehow, having a hard time to feel intimidated by someone wearing a sash...But hey if it works for you, go for it...

AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! MY DEAREST CROESY!! If only someone had told me back when the contest was going about this I would have voted for you!! Well actually I might've voted for Jen....JUST KIDDING! While Jen wins beautiful award, you definitely have won most unique. We at Just Around the Corner miss our favorite bald headed mascot and comic relief! RETURN UNTO US WHEN THOU BEEST ABLE!

*sums up all her singing capabilities which are probably just a notch beneath Croesy's and unleashes a song that would hopefully make him proud*
ou've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
When the road looks rough ahead
And you're miles and miles
From your nice warm bed
Just remember what your old pal said
Boy, you've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
You've got troubles, well I've got 'em too
There isn't anything I wouldn't do for you
We stick together and we see it through
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me

Some other folks might be
A little bit smarter than I am
Bigger and stronger too
Maybe
But none of them will ever love you the way I do
It's me and you
And as the years go by
Boys, our friendship will never die
You're gonna see
It's our destiny
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thanks Meg (*blushes*) I miss you guys too and as soon as i fail my exams i WILL BE back!!!

VERA LYNN style
We'll meet again,
Don't know where,
Don't know when,
But I know
We'll meet again
Some sunny day.

Keep smiling through
Just like you
Always do
Till the blue skies
Drive the dark clouds
Far away.

So will you please
Say hello
To the folks
That I know
Tell them,
I won't be long.

They'll be happy to know
That as you saw me go
I was singing this song.

;)
