Right now, if you Google my name, this blog is fourth on the list of results, but I don&#8217;t want to get too excited. For a long time, when I Googled &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/wbjewelry.blogspot.com\/2007\/11\/future-designs.html\">meerkat jewelry<\/a>,&#8221; this blog was the third result, but when I Googled &#8220;Wendy Brandes,&#8221; this blog was on the 20th results page every other Tuesday. The rest of the time it was on the 21st page. Considering I started this blog to promote my business, this wasn&#8217;t satisfactory. I&#8217;ve done a better job promoting <a href=\"http:\/\/wbjewelry.blogspot.com\/search\/label\/coco\">Coco&#8217;s ass<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>But really, I shouldn&#8217;t complain. You know who should be upset? The other Wendy Brandes. Yes, there is another Wendy Brandes and she lives in New York City. We&#8217;ve known about each other since 1987 but we&#8217;ve never met in person because if we did the universe would implode and\/or the Kansas City Royals would win the pennant. The other Wendy Brandes is a brilliant attorney who seems to have done things to improve the lives of poor children and people who are without health insurance. I say &#8220;seems,&#8221; because whenever I try to Google the other Wendy Brandes, all I find is a whole lot of shizz about <a href=\"http:\/\/wbjewelry.blogspot.com\/search\/label\/fish%20feet\">fish feet<\/a> and a picture of me carrying a whip. I&#8217;m sorry, other Wendy Brandes!<\/p>\n<p>If it&#8217;s any consolation, other Wendy Brandes, sometimes I think it&#8217;s better to toil in obscurity. If you get too famous, one day you put on a dress that doesn&#8217;t fit exactly right due to no fault of your own, and everyone teases you for going out with what appears to be an armgina.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/dlisted.com\/2008\/01\/08\/armpit-flaps-are-in\/\" target=\"_blank\">ARMGINA!<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m sorry, beautiful actress Katherine Heigl! I would never have mentioned this because you are gorgeous from head to toe, including your armpits, but I was worried I would never have another reason to say the word &#8220;armgina&#8221; if I didn&#8217;t take this opportunity.  Let&#8217;s discuss this over a jewelry-shopping session!<\/p>\n<p>UPDATED TO ADD: Oh!My!God! My blog has moved up one place in rankings, actually passing the who-knew-it-would-be-the-most-important-fact-about-me-ever wedding announcement! I need to revel in this while it lasts.<\/p>\n<p>UPDATED AGAIN TO ADD:  I&#8217;ve disappeared again.
