The title is pretty self explanatory. I'm Brigitte Dale and I'm a burger-earner.

This economy is forcing lots of people who'd finally gotten a place of their own to go back to having a roommate. Make the best of it! P.S.

Your videos get me upside down

I guess ABCFamily doesn't have very good tech support. Brigitte is probably still on hold trying to imagine what our facial expressions are every time we come on here and don't see the new video.

You know that feeling you get when you don't have your coffee first thing in the morning...that's happening right now without a new Brigitte video. Wink

I can't have a link to my own website in my signature? Come on, ABC!

Hey you upped the video quality.

Glad my whining could be of service.

Hey everybody! Posting today's video is delayed due to some technical issues. I will get it up here as soon as possible! Thanks Smiling

THAT's why I froze twice accessing this site. I was going to blame Jim. ... think I'll blame him anyway. Wink

Hey! Sensitive Alien! Yes, this means you!

It's been 78 Days since the Great Ankle Injury... just in case you wanted to exercise your social skills and finally offer a kind word of sympathy Wink ...

(No I don't go counting the blocks on the calendar when I announce the days... I used my techie skills to create a spreadsheet to calculate the days for me.)

So... you've discovered the delight of Dulce Deleche ice cream, have you? (...and yes, it IS good in coffee, especially Dulce Deleche coffee).

By the way - - I really dig the new capability of being able to EDIT your own comment! VERY KEWL!!!

Okay, so I've complained several times about the background in your new home so it's only fair that I say I like the bg you've used the last two weeks. Your dog sleeping behind you was awesome. One hill over from The Hills ... on the Hollywood side or the Valley side? Not that you can answer that, I'm just thinking/typing out loud. Can't wait to see what you're going to be on Halloween!

wow. i'm so glad to hear that i'm not the only one who mimics facial expressions..

Brigitte, I think you do very good for a digital native. You seem like you're very friendly and personable, and just all around pleasant. I think that's awesome~

(also, thanks for the coffee creamer tip!!)

Brigitte,
I'm not sure how to spell it, but that thing you put in your coffee instead of cream. Can you try and say it fast three times in your next video. It sounded funny and I just think it would be funny if you tried that. And if you could actually do it without messing up, you would prove just how cool you are.

A while ago I read it was possible to increase grey matter (actual brain tissue) by learning to juggle.
I like this topic. Would natural selection play a part in this (over time)? Maybe all the techy people will meet other techy people and have tech savvy babies and take over the world one click at a time.
On a related subject, the reason girls are better at multi tasking is that you have 30% percent more corpus collum then boys. It connects the left and right side of your brains together.
I like your 'brigitte tips'. Coffee and ice cream, who would have thunk it. Personally I use Baileys when I'm outta milk. It makes my mornings fantastic!

I'm smiling right now.

I do believe technology changes us both ways, on the good side we are the most communicated people on history, we can see what happens on the other side of the globe the instant something happens,talk to our friends and relatives thousands of miles away,have access to a vast amount of knowledge just by punching a few keys on our computers, but at the same time the "social skills" seem to be diminishing, the interaction face to face it's becoming more difficult everyday, we are "holed up" in our own bubble afraid of others, on-line we are "super-macho" or "super-girl" with myriads of things to say, but we suddenly become "mini-me's" when we are confronted in real life, and we hide behind our cellphones and e-mails. Has Technology changed our people skills?...yes...."if you disagree, please press 1, if you agree, please press 2, if in doubt please hold on line and a representative will take your call"....my point exactly.

Good coffee, good dog, good hair, and good topic all come together to make a really good video. Thanks.

Apparently your dog finds your job so boring it puts him to sleep. Maybe you could market this to people with hyper dogs. They Pop in a DVD with all your videos when their dogs are too much to handle. The dog will go to sleep and they get to watch cool videos. It's win win.
