My really good friend Victoria, sent me this email last night.

Last year, a Guinness World Record was set by Everywhere,
out of Atlanta, Georgia (raising more than $70,000) for the “Most

one-word phrase #beatcancer set the record contributing to the 209,771 unique mentions on Twitter, Facebook and blog posts.


To participate, all you need to do is add the hashtag #beatcancer
(all one word) to any tweet, Facebook status update or blog post.
There will be a donation made of ($0.05)* per
mention of #beatcancer on Twitter, Facebook, or blog post during the 24
hour Guinness World Record attempt. All money will be donated to the
designated cancer serving non-profits, LIVESTRONG Foundation, Bright Pink and Stand Up To Cancer. (full details - http://pitch.pe/94888)


Can we beat the WORLD RECORD this year?
I think we can! Let's get to tweeting!

Today is Victoria's birthday so lets all do this!

This is in memory of my Uncle Jim and Uncle Jorge who lost their battle to cancer and were taken from us too soon.

I was an Orphan in Annie.

After two really fun conversations with my friend Victoria I was inspired to do this. One thing you have to know about Victoria is she is awesome. She always makes me laugh a lot and I know she will brighten my day. During our conversation she was reading my blog while we were on the phone. She read my post about acting and singing and said you were in an off Broadway version of Annie? I said yes. Victoria was also in the musical Annie. We were both orphans. She was the nameless one and I can’t remember what the name is of any of my characters were. She told me about how the table broke during the cast photo and we swapped Annie stories.

Then we started talking about the music. We were actually singing Annie songs together. We sang NYC, Easy Street, Thank you Herbert Hoover etc. NYC is probably my favorite Annie song. At one point later in our conversation we were talking about something else and Victoria made the comment of something like things will get better tomorrow. I started singing Tomorrow. We are dorks but we have fun doing it. We decided to start a new Facebook group called I was an orphan in Annie. I am sure there are millions of us out there.

We both decided we liked the song Little Girls too. I was up really late singing Annie songs. I am surprised my son didn’t wake up and cry because I was pretty loud. So, this morning I decided to sing some karaoke in honor of our orphan days. So, Victoria this is for you and all those Annie orphans out there.


Little girls - Vote for my rendition!
There is no reason to vote cause i didn't want votes. Also I want to point out that I am singing it like Miss Hannagain would
