1. After reading this, you just have to share it with everyone you know.
Normally I don't post fluff like this, but I wrote this fluff, and I wrote it because pretty much everything is true.
ReplyDeleteExcept for the chamber pot. But I've actually thought about it, along with a fifteen foot catheter that drains into the sink.
I live for fluff. Thanks for the laughs!
ReplyDeleteI really hate it when I wake up and my eyelashes are caked with dried blood. Annoying as hell when you're trying to type in a link.
5 out of 10. No, you may not know which 5.
ReplyDeleteActually, I've got too many IM clients to do anything about MySpace.
ReplyDeleteAnd the last time I had sex was via Google Chat.

Even though my book isn't out yet, I was obsessed with Amazon's rankings...until I learned that Barnes & Noble also posts sales rankings. Now I'm obsessed with those.
ReplyDeleteDoes zero out of 10 mean I'm not spending enough time on the net?
ReplyDeleteObsessively checking your Amazon rankings isn't bad. Doing it while plucking out your eyebrows and rocking back and forth in the dark, that's bad.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the fluff--and yes Jim, TMI.
Set up iGoogle with a blog search for your name/recent book title, then make it your home page. It's not obsessive checking if it's automatic ;-)
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about your misshapen ass, Joe. You might want to dig out that television. Maybe What Not to Wear can give you some pointers for camouflaging that particular problem. Vertical lines and pointed-toe pumps, or something. ;)
ReplyDeleteI love your blog
ReplyDeleteI can relate to some of these. Not good. :D
ReplyDeleteThanks for the laugh. I can relate to so many of these. Gack! I must be spending too much time online!
