BEDA 1: I really suck at this.

Welcome to the second annual BEDA! I'm your host, Tina McFlorenmeister. Today's show is brought to you by the wonderful makers of Flab-Be-Gone: it's like magic! Let's bring out our first guest, world-record holder of making the cheesiest Cheezy Bread, and professional thumb wrestler: Amanda Rumm.

I'm going to be frank with you all, this will not work. I tried BEDA last year and failed after a week, then I tried to vlog everyday in November, and made two videos. I've attempted THREE 30 Day Challenges on Tumblr and have not completed either. I update my Dailybooth account once every couple of weeks. Long story short, I can't keep up with daily things. But I will give this a

shot! Though, like I said, schedules aren't my thing. Like that time I tried to participate in NaNoWriMo, wrote 600 words, and gave up. As you can see, I have plenty of stories about failure. But let's make this one a story of success.

I'll begin by explaining what BEDA is. It's fairly simple. In 2009, Maureen Johnson launched something called BEDA (Blog Every Day April) in anticipation of the release of her new book Scarlett Fever (which is excellent, by the way.) This year, everyone asked if she planned to do it again, for kicks. April was a busy month for dear MJ, so she moved it to August. But now she's once again too busy to participate, so we will all try EXTRA HARD.

I don't have another direction to take in this particular blog today, so I will not continue past this point. I think that it is a great place to start, personally. This was just an introduction and I look forward to forgetting to post another one tomorrow!

Goodnight, Tiny Humans.
