Thank you so much for being patient with us this month, specifically in this last week or two. Settling back down into life post the Snark Lady trip to California has been rather tricky for me. Mostly, though, my RL job was basically all, "welcome back from a week of vacation. Here's everything you missed with interest." Hooray, gainful employment.
Sweeney: I still don't entirely know what's going on. Just when I thought I'd developed a solid understanding of how to manage a self-structured schedule, I went to Coachella and then had all sorts of family stuff (which seriously just. keeps. coming.)
This video makes me giggle because I decided to record it without my glasses but was too lazy to put my contacts on. It makes me extra squinty at points. Hilar. Additionally, in retrospect, yes, I do realize that it makes me sound rather hipster-y. What can you do?
I can't promise that I won't be squinty next video, but I do promise to not say, "amazing."

Considering that we could barely get the other posts up last week, I assume nobody was surprised that we decided to skip this. This week we are supposedly discussing music,...
Every technical difficulty ever went into the making of this video. Eventually, I will stop feeling the need to apologize before every vlog (this one is choppy in place, due to those difficulties) but I think these are the growing pains as we iron out the whole vlogging thing. That's what I like to tell myself so I don't throw my laptop across the room in a Hulk rage.
As I mention in the vlog, Sweeney and I are flip flopping days next week, as she's been traveling these last few days. That also explains why our thumbnails on the main page are all wonky. She will fix those when she gets back. (COME BACK SOON, SWEEN.)

I promise I'll start getting these under four minutes next week. I chopped off a lot of introduction stuff, so the beginning is kind of jarring, but my rambling starts with my 7-ish-year-old self. I have nothing else to say about this video, except that I would love to gush about our late '90s fansites in the comments. Also, that this dress was an unfortunate choice. Womp. I very seriously considered changing and re-recording, but the 20 minutes of babble I started with was exhausting enough the first time around.
Firstly, Segue Magic it is! I think that calls for a dance party!
Secondly, I realized I talk very little about why I love the Chronicles of Narnia series, though I do have about 20 minutes of cut material about how much Lucy Penvensie rocks, the importance of reading in the publishing order, and how much the secondary characters add to the series. So, you know, I have reasons, I promise!

Sweeney: HERE IT IS. US VLOGGING. WEEKLY. First of all, let me just say that we need an actual title. The only other series in Snark Squad Sentiments is The...
Sweeney: We missed two days because (1) Lor was helping me get my shit out of storage (Welcome to California!) -and- (2) We decided that vacation meant all the sleep and none of the TV.
Lorraine: Our lives are super glamorous. I'm not being sarcastic; the naps I took in LA were FANTASTIC. Totally worth storage moving.
Sweeney: Aside from our glamorous lives with amazing naps, we've been busy this month! To reiterate the theme from last month's TMYK: not dying = winning.

Sweeney: As with many of our big plans, this was meant to be edited and uploaded sooner. This was going to happen in the same universe where we were going to...
Sweeney: First, happy Easter if you celebrate. Happy Colorful Chocolate Day to everyone else. Enjoy.
Lorraine: "Enjoy." Now forever said with a Cersei-like bow and offering of wine.
Sweeney: Obviously.
Second, it seems like there is less to say by way of introduction to this newsletter-esque post this month. We still have a thousand big exciting plans brewing, but we have started to really find a rhythm that works for us here at our digital Snark HQ.
