cheeze n crackers

Do you think it is a coincidence that a slice of american cheese can be divided into 4 near pieces that are the perfect size to fit on a saltine cracker? It’s almost EERIE!

I should go to bed now.

hey good looking

sorry for the abrupt “in your face” anal action post back there. whew! Not even sure where that came from, really. Maybe I just thought it would be informative. Next time you’re out of conventional lube, you know where to go: the kitchen.

Right.

Oh, and this is to make Scoot happy:

So you might have noticed I kind of have a different theme going on here. I’m not sure if I like it or not. What do you guys think?

 

Also, I joined twitter. That’s the section at the top of the right-most column. You should join, too! And then we’ll ALL get the text messages! And we’ll ALL KNOW WHAT WE’RE ALL DOING EACH AND EVERY MINUTE OF THE DAY!!!!

 

shut up. it’ll be fun.

the debate

there is a debate in our relationship that is every bit as fevered and contentious as any tv political debate.

The Banana Sandwich.

On the basics, we agree.  The bread should be toasted.  The banana should be cut in half, and then each half cut lengthwise, and arranged in a single layer on the toast.

It is the condiment on the sandwich that it hotly debated.

I grew up with only a light layer of margarine on both pieces of toast to make the perfect banana sandwich.  Recently, I’ve added some light cream cheese to one piece of toast to add some sweet creaminess.

Kev is disgusted with my margarine/cream cheese banana sandwich lifestyle. HE grew up with…I am not making this up…MAYONNAISE on his banana sandwich.

EWYUCK!!!

Both Kev and his mother INSIST that this is the only proper way to make a banana sandwich, and I am a FREQUENT TARGET of ridicule by Kev for shunning the mayo nanner lifestyle.  SO I do what I ALWAYS do in this situation: I throw it out to blogland.  Do you make banana sandwiches?  What do you put on them?  Are you as horrified at the idea of a mayo/nanner combination as I am?

hey, we’re selling more shit!

on friggin’ EBAY, BABY!

So here’s the story: you may or may not know, but Kev’s been married before. Briefly. To a psychopath. It didn’t last long.

But don’t be sad, because then he met ME and has since said that it was worth going through all that hellish business if it meant we’d end up together.

all together now: AWWWWWW!

anyway, along with some emotional baggage (long since beaten out of him), the previous marriage left behind unused and perfectly nice wedding gifts. The thought of me actually using these things kind of squicked me out…so into storage with them!

But hey, why don’t we make some money from this stuff? If only there was a way in which we could set up some kind of “auction” in which “people” could “bid” on these “pretty things” and then give us “money” for them!

hey, such a place DOES exist! And they only charge a small listing fee! So if you’re in the market for some nice dishes, glasses, or a party server, check out our ebay listings and BID BID, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, BID!

Hypothetically…

Say you have a blog, and while it’s a public blog, you’ve never really mentioned anything about it to your family, because you write about very personal things, as well as naughty adult type stuff.

Now say that your blog is about to go public in a slightly bigger way, let’s say for example, a link on a much more popular blog, or maybe a mention in a widely circulated periodical. Let’s also say that this link or mention will also use your real name.

You know for certain that your family does not read said popular blog or widely circulated periodical, however, you cannot be certain that their friends don’t…though it seems unlikely. Still, there is always a chance.

Do you: come clean to your family in advance, so that they don’t hear about your blog “on the streets?”

or do you: keep quiet and hope maybe no one will notice?

This is allll purely hypothetical, of course.
