Why can't my sides be waffles?

Confession time:
Umm...
I have succumbed to the peer pressure and I have watched a few episodes of 
I know.
I really do.
But OMG.
It has provided hours of  entertainment and inside jokes that aren't getting old.
Things like:
"Forklift Foot!"
"Shhhh It's a Wig!"
{shhitzawig!}
"I hope she doesn't poot in your face!"
"I know you didn't just fart on my leg...!"
And that was all from 1.5 subtitled episodes. 
Wow.

Because of all the hoopla from my time with the Boo madness this week, this morning I wished that my brunch sides would be waffles--naturally.
WWHBBD?
I'm pretty sure, though, that I wasn't far off.
My friend Steph and I had waffles and a side of waffles at Waffle Brothers.

 Yum.

As silly as this post is, I realized yet again, that it's the simple things in life
--like that of a waffle--
and
--ridiculous shhitzawig jokes--
that makes life great. 

And, don't worry.
My Honey Boo Boo moments are numbered.
Really, they are.
They have to be. 
My brain cells couldn't handle it if I watched much more..!!

#likeavirgin

I know that I'm  #latetotheparty but the #hashtagcommunication is sorta
 #likeapuzzle to me.
Actually, this is the first time I have ever used the # sign to communicate. 
Yup.
#hashtagvirgin
But I can't decide--
Do I love it or hate it? 
On one hand it's fun to figure out what sort of sarcasm or angle people bring to different situations by deciphering the non-spaced sentences that often reveal deep dark secrets:
#fmlidroppedmyphonebutitscoolatleastimnotaddictedtothebachelorette
#ohwaitiam
{do you use punctuation like ( ' )? I don't think so...#yupvirgin}


But on the other hand, it's totally silly! I mean, do I really need another way of communicating the obvious??
#maybe
In my quest to decide if I love this or hate it, I thought I would look up a little history of this fine form of communication and this is what I found:
The history of the #hashtag
Or, if you're a visual learner,
this is informative AND entertaining:
My take-away:
"No conference or speech is complete without a hashtag these days, binding together the ad-hoc community of observers and their pithy comments and memorable quotes."
#hmm
I already think in terms of a Facebook status and/or a blog post, so maybe I'll embrace the #hashtagcommunication for a while and express what happened to me 
last night at Film at the Rocks:
