You guys are going to have to excuse me big time here -- I got a new toy to add some variety to this blog and while I’m adept at voice acting, I’ve never done camera work so please bear with me. I’m bound to get better as it goes, but for now I’m just blathering to get one in the books. One of my life lessons these days is “don’t tweak to perfection, just get it out there” so that’s what this is. Sorry for the crappy resolution, next time I’ll use the right settings.
Also, I just joined Twitter after poo-poohing it since its inception. My first session of the Marketing webinar taught me how useful it can be for those of us with blogs and websites, so I caved. It’s kind of cool, though I still feel like I don’t know what the hell’s going on when I’m there. Anyway, my Twitter name is FloInMotion if anyone wants to follow me. Not sure how exciting it’ll be but one can always hope.
OK, enough stalling…public humiliation for your viewing pleasure.

Oh Flo, you crack me up! I may have to try out this Twitter thing too. Been hemming and hawing on for a while now.
Oh great, now we have to actually SEE you put out this drivel! ha ha. Flo’s favorite things? If we are in the home audience, do we get to take the stuff home? You get a car! You get a car! You get a car! LMAO!!! We need a button where we can offer video rebuttal, waddya think? Time for me to get off now…might have been quicker without the bra.
I think you were ready for your close-up.
yea, dont ever feel you have to put a bra on for me :P
Hi Flo! You are hilarious! I’m looking forward to more on that “video thing!”
I almost thought you enjoyed saying “get off”.
LMAO – Tricks???? Can you juggle next week? Wearing the bra of course.
Yeah, I wonder what happened off the camera went off. You were a little “excited.”
Wow, Flo. I feel like I’ve met you now. Looking forward to future updates!
you are hilarious!
Wow- it’s so great to put a real “person” to your posts! Nice job!!!!
A bra AND mascara? Wow! Gussied up! And HAHAHAHA…..I’m going to try to not act like Beavis and Butthead and chuckle for half an hour about “getting off”–but resistance is futile.
Nice to finally see and hear “Flo Live!” I’ve thought about doing something like that before watching Steve Runners Runcast clippy things, but don’t think I’d be brave enough to do that without your mad VO skills.
Well, things did not start out all that well, given my disappointment in you putting a bra on for your faithful readers (now viewers), but seeing you get off at the end was better (though not quite how one might have imagined it). ;-)
Looking forward to “seeing” more of this kind of quirkiness from you. I’d consider following suit, but I just don’t feel like putting pants on for some unknown cyber-audience.

You are so fricken cute, Flo! LOL!
OOooo, big group hug to you guys!! You made me laugh and get all warm fuzzies at the same time.
Mir, join the dark Twitter side. I still find it weird beyond belief, but it’s something different, lol.
Tobey, your reply is hilarious!! The last line is too much, lol. Sorry to get you all excited about a new car. FLOprah doesn’t have the means yet, but the intent is there. Does that count?
Joe, nice of you to attend, Mr. DeMille.
Doggie, Bwahaha!! That comment cracked me up.
runsinthefamily, thank you sweetie! Mucho appreciated.
Runthruit, the 3:20 thread has dirtied me up. I used to be so innocent, now I’m completely sullied.
BlackBear, lol! OK, so maybe the tricks won’t be too astounding, but I might need a lawyer to go over what I say so I don’t get sued for Disappointment Of Character. Hurry and graduate. Hey, when you gonna start linking your blog when you reply? Get with the program woman, enquiring minds would love to read your blog!
Zab, yeah, I was a little hyper though not in the way you mean, in a “what the fuck am I doing?” way. Still am, come to think of it.
Jim, very neat reply, thanks. It’s so funny how you can read someone’s writing but never have a clue what they’re really like, so it’s very heartening to think it “worked”. I recommend this to all my blogging friends.
Karyn, aw shucks and thanks! Hugs for you.
Greenlee, you remain a total sweetheart. Thanks for the props, girl.
Kazz, go for it!! This wasn’t voiceovery stuff at all, just talking and being stupid. I’d love to see you do the same!! Nothing like seeing people in action.
ESG, lol!! Aw c’mon, what’s a pair of pants for two minutes? That last paragraph totally cracked me up.
Glorybelle…no YOU! You’re the cutie, but thanks a million for saying that. Hugs forever. :-)
OK warning “Do Not Watch FloCam While Running on the Treadmill”…..I was laughing so hard I couldn’t figure out how to “get off”.
Seriously great stuff I can’t wait to watch more.
Aw Stevi, you’re the best, glad you escaped injury, lol.
Nice! I like this addition to your blog. Gives it a more personal touch:)
Too funny – getting to hear your stories in addition to reading them brings a smile :-) to my face.
I was just googling the whole twitter thing . . . oh that makes me sound sooooo old. Anyway – I have been thinking of signing up and following a couple of people . . . I will look into it this weekend.
You need a “sign-off” . . . something like the Sgt. Esterhaus of Hill Street Blues and his “Let’s be careful out there” Here is the clip from youtube.

Hahahaha! This is great.
The only thing that would have been better would have been if you had started vlogging (yeah, that’s supposedly a term in common use) while your old neighbors were still around. That would have been truly epic.
Jaymee, thanks!
Linda, great idea! That’s exactly what my friend Lara suggested (getting a sign-off). Girls with “L” names are smart. :-) While you investigate Twitter this weekend, I’ll come up with a catchy closing phrase.
Vince, Yikes!! I don’t even want to imagine that scenario (funny, though). Good on you with the vlogging word, thanks for that. I never heard it before but it’s the perfect name for it.
Hi Flo. That was hilarious. Why am I reminded of Jennifer Grey in Ferris Bueller when her mom is collecting her from the police station and she’s trying to say goodbye to that miscreant Charlie Sheen?
Call me!
Ron: put your pants on, for God’s sake!
Thanks A Muse. :-) And I know, that Ron…he’s such a disgusting pervert! That’s why we like him so.
Wow, that was lot for 2:30 a.m! I hope you are pleased with yourself. You just made my day and I’ve only been awake 10 minutes! I’m looking forward to many more humorous videos from you. I’m impressed; I would never have the guts to do something like that.
LA, the sick part about your comment is that lately I go to bed at around 2am and you’re just waking up??? You are the hardest working, most dedicated person I know. Hope you’re having a great day so far. Oh look, it’s 9:30 am, almost dinner time for you! :-)
OK, I’ve been a blog lurker for a while, but I have to say: your career makes perfect sense because you have one of the most pleasing voices I’ve ever heard. Seriously. There’s layers of interest to it. You could just read chapters of Hudson and Pfitzinger to us as runner-geek bedtime stories, haha.
Oh pshaw, Kristin, you are now my best friend forever, such a sweet thing to say (though totally undeserved), thanks. Yay on you unlurking, too!
Flo,
Splendid, and I shall continue to tune in.
Awesome vid, Flo! =) You totally crack me up. Can’t wait for more!
Thanks Dee and Sharool! Such a relief that everyone’s not wanting to unsubscribe or run away, lol.
Loved the flo cam I mean webcam. That was awesome!
That was good Flo. I like the accent — not too American
The camera likes you. Doesn’t like your hair though. Didn’t need the fresh bra, but it was a good line. Great script actually — high-five to the scriptwriter. I can see you doubling your reader/stalker/viewer-ship. Resolution was fine — our steam-powered broadband is barely quick enough for a couple of minutes of low-res video. Can’t wait for the next one!
Christi, lol flocam. :-) Thanks girlie!
Ewen, you made me laugh out loud with the hair comment. You’re so right, it was doing something I really didn’t understand, but I was too helpless to do anything about it. Stupid bangs. Thanks for the rest, you’re a doll.
OMG! I sooo needed a laugh this week and YOU cracked me up Girl!! I see Comedy in your future for sure!!
Fran, glad to supply some silliness for you, thanks for the happy words, girl.
Flo! Okay, so you told us you put a bra on but you left out the most important info: WHAT COLOR WAS IT? Sheesh, aren’t you up on the latest FB shenanigans?
Betsy, I didn’t realize people were discussing bra colors on FB. So much I’m missing. :-) Might have to do a drive by to see what everyone’s color choices are, lol
Very cute video Flo, great idea.
You’re so darn funny…that “getting off” thingy cracked me up! Loved it
Thanks Progman and Priyanka!
Love it!! Very funny.
Thanks Caroline! You’re a doll.
