Made a $250 commissioned sale tonight…only my second one in six days but good enough, for now.

Something old but funny, to read. It’s my collection of silly personal ad replies, followed by responses I would have sent, had I gotten the balls to actually go through with it…

Kiss My Sass » Blog Archive » The unwritten rules

…of Communication Between Men  

Any man who brings a camera to a stag night may be legally killed and eaten by his fellow partygoers.

Under no circumstances may two men share an umbrella.

It is ok for a man to cry under the following circumstances: a. When a heroic dog dies to save it’s master b. The moment Angelina Jolie starts unbuttoning her blouse c. After wrecking your boss’ car. d. One hour, 12 minutes, 37 seconds into “The Crying Game”.

e. When your Date is using her teeth

Unless he murdered someone in your family, you must bail a friend out of jail within 12 hours.

If you’ve known a guy for more than 24 hours, his sister is off limits forever, unless you actually marry her.

The minimum amount of time you have to wait for a guy who’s running late is 5 minutes. Maximum waiting time: 6 minutes. For a girl, you have to wait 10 minutes for every point of hotness she scores on the classic 1-10 scale.

Bitching about the brand of free beer in a male friend’s fridge is forbidden. Gripe at will if the temperature is unsuitable.

No man shall ever be required to buy a birthday present for another man (in fact, even remembering your buddy’s birthday is strictly optional).

On a road trip, the strongest bladder determines pit stops, not the weakest.

While your girlfriend must bond with your buddies’ girlfriends within 30 minutes of meeting them, you are not required to make nice with her gal pals’ significant dick-heads— low level sports bonding is all the law requires (sorry ladies, it’s called a double standard and we drew the short straw on that one).

When stumbling upon other guys watching a sporting event, you may always ask the score of the game in progress, but you may never ask who’s playing.

You may flatulate in front of a woman only after you have brought her to climax. If you trap her head under the covers for the purpose of flatulent entertainment, she’s officially your girlfriend.

It is permissible to quaff a fruity chick drink only when you’re sunning on a tropical beach….and it’s delivered by a topless supermodel…and it’s free.

Unless you’re in prison, never fight naked.

Friends don’t let friends wear Speedos. Ever. Issue closed.

If a man’s zipper is down, that’s his problem—you didn’t see nothin’.

Women who claim to “love to watch sports” must be treated as spies until they demonstrate knowledge of the game and the ability to drink as much beer as the other sports watchers.

You must offer heartfelt and public condolences over the death of a girlfriend’s cat, even if it was you who secretly set it on fire and threw it into a ceiling fan.

A man in the company of a hot, suggestively dressed woman must remain sober enough to fight.

Never hesitate to reach for the last beer or the last slice of pizza, but not both. That’s just plain mean.

If you complement a guy on his six-pack, you’d better be talking about his choice of beer.

Never join your girlfriend or wife in dissing a male friend of yours, except if she’s withholding sex pending your response.

Phrases that may not be uttered to another man while lifting weights: a. Yeah, Baby, Push it! b. C’mon, give me one more! Harder! c. Another set and we can hit the showers!

d. Nice Ass, are you a Sagittarius?

Never talk to a man in a bathroom unless you are on equal footing: both urinating, both waiting in line, etc. For all other situations, an almost imperceptible nod is all the conversation you need.

Never allow a conversation with a woman to go on longer than you are able to have sex with her. Keep a stopwatch by the phone; Hang up if necessary.

The morning after you and a babe who was formerly “just a friend” have carnal drunken monkey sex, the fact that you’re feeling weird and guilty is no reason not to nail her again before the discussion about what a big mistake it was.

Isn’t that an old song? Who knows. Anyhoo…quick update…

Today it is as rainy as ever. This morning I woke up at 7 and got ready to go out, and my friend and I went to the post office ’cause they had a job ad posted in the paper for holiday work. When we got there they said there was no such thing. What a waste of my morning.

Last night, the same friend and I left the gym and had dinner at her condo which is in a converted warehouse downtown. Sort of celebrating her birthday a little early. She made a really good meatloaf and we rented Being John Malkovich. I enjoyed it quite a bit. I’ll have to get myself a copy for the tape collection. I’ll need to see the end again because it was a bit confusing during that, since she and I were having a discussion about meatloaf at the time.

Well, I’ve got to run back out into the rain again because I have an appointment at 1pm in downtown Minneapolis and if I don’t hurry, I’ll be late.

Back later.

7:44pm
Such pain. I am bleeding to death.

I enjoy being a girl.

All. Month. Long.

It’s early to bed for me, tonight…I need to rest up a bit since I have to work tomorrow. my nephew is over here, I’m babysitting him for the night. right now we’re coloring with markers then we’re going to watch some Disney videos. I’ll be back later. in the meantime, here’s something pretty to look at: http://www.unamerican.com

Buhh byee

8:57pm
Oh jesus.

I’m back, but only because I needed to wake myself up a little bit. My nephew has blue marker all over his lips now. I should have had him put away the coloring stuff before I put the video tape in, ’cause we were sitting there watching the movie when I dozed off for a sec, to wake up and find him with the marker to his mouth. his mom’s gonna be pretty p-o’ed. Ha ha, he’s kinda funny lookin’ now.

Damn, this is funny. someone went searching for ’street prostitute’ at lycos.com and the results that came up included my site. ha ha.

Toodles for now…gonna put the boy to bed and go watch South Park.

11:17pm
Early to bed, my ass. I don’t feel so good just now. nothing new, though. I have been feeling crappy off and on, all day.

I put up a table that lists my fave weblogs. It monitors them for me, too. Figuring out just exactly where to place the javascript, however, was another issue. for some reason it was hard to decide, but once I got it in I was pretty pleased, whoo hoo! probably the highlight of my day, and that’s the truth

Egads!–the new SNL season sucks, hardcore. Why can’t Will Farrell fall off the face of the earth, already?! I miss Phil Hartman and lots of other people. Tracy Morgan is probably the only one on there this year that I like. I must be bored out of my skull right now if the best thing I can think of to talk about is SNL. shit.

I’m kinda pissed off tonight because people make me mad. sometimes my family makes me mad, too. I wonder where some people think they get off in this world, by getting away without returning simple things like affection or kindness and showing gratitude. is it just me, or are these things uncommon these days? hmmm.

Kiss My Sass » Blog Archive » BBBBRRRRRRR!

Hey all.

It got to a blistering and balmy 12 degrees in the Twin Cities today, and it’s only going to get better! Oooh, we’re expecting a high of 15 degrees on Wednesday…can’t wait! Tonight when I got home I turned up the oven to 450 degrees and stood in front of it like a bum would do, in front of a flaming 55 gallon garbage can in some city alley. I was warm and toasty…for a minute.

It’s freezing in my apartment and I found out much of the cold is attributed to leaky windows. I am gonna have to go get a 3M Window Insulator kit this week. Stopping at KMart on the way home is gonna be a drag, but it’ll pay off soon. Living in Minnesota is sort of like living in Siberia, only the people are nicer. Most of them, anyway.

This week is my last week at my full time job, since I am planning on attending college this spring. Rent and utilities are going to be a bitch if I can only work part time so now I am just pumping up my hours at the PT job and roommate-hunting. Such fun. Wanna live with me? I don’t have any pets, I’ve got cable, and a pullout sofa bed, so you’re all set. I DO snore though. People tell me it’s kind of a whimper/snort/wheeze combination. Dang. That’s gonna cost me a few prospects.

In the midst of all these reality bites, I have actually contemplated telecommuting. That’s right, working from home, just me and my ISP connection. One thing was clear to me, as I surfed along looking at job listing after job listing, and that was the fact that hey! I don’t have to look for a real job, I could simply go running to join the rest of the gang at About.com and be a guide, complete with my own page about the best sushi bars in Knoxville, or proclaim to be an expert on battlebots or even pedicures…I even get my own little doofy picture up in the corner! Right now some of the topics available seem exciting, but I don’t think I could pull off telling folks I was a connoisseur of something like say:

-4wheel drive/SUVs-Atlanta, GA-Canada-Curling-Current Events in India-Dairy Foods (Industry)-Hepatitis-Home Electronics in the U.K.-Jehovah’s Witnesses-Laboratory Supplies/Devices (Industry)-Memphis, TN

-Men’s Health

*Sigh* About.com will just have to do without me, I guess.

Hey, guys! Is it THAT BAD finding a decent gal pal these days?
Apparently the people at realdoll.com think so. For ONLY $5,749.00, you too can have the girl of your dreams. “always ready & available … provides stress-free companionship.” and claims to be affordable–”less inexpensive than most alternatives” (what KIND of alternatives?!) are the company’s many self-praises. Well, guys, I’m a CHEAP date! Just last night I was completely contented just sitting on the couch with a bag of microwave popcorn and a re-run of some show on the history channel, for pete’s sake. Plus I’m cute, bubbly, have a brain, nice boobs, clear skin, big brown eyes and hell…I’m fun to be around, dammit! [credit for my attention to the above goes to killyourtv.com -b]

Moving on–Here’s something to cheer up er, some people:
Success at any age:At age 4, success is…… not peeing your pants.At age 12, success is…… having friends.At age 20, success is…… having sex.At age 35, success is…… making good money.At age 60, success is…… having sex.At age 70, success is…… having friends.

At age 80, success is…… not peeing your pants.

If nothing else, read the goofy testimonials. Here’s snippets of some:

-”This guy will get you chics!!!!!! He ROCKS! VERY GREAT PRODUCT! IT ACTUALLY WORKS! A+++”

-”Fast delivery, product as advertised. I bought 10 bottles ’cause I ran out already! thanks”

-”PHEROMONE STUFF WORKS!!!! I AM A BABE MAGNET NOW, AND ENJOY GETTING BLONDE CHICS!!!”[aw, dang! *runs off to walgreens for a bottle of Clairol no. 37* -b]

-”THIS STUFF REALLY WORKS! GIRLS HAVE NO RESISTANCE!”[oh, really? *makes sign of the cross with fingers* -b]

-”My menstrual cycle was so irregular that it required a serious hormonal treatment. But I could not continue the treatment since the medication damaged my liver and raised blood pressure to a dangerous level. Guess what, my cycle became regular for the first time in years after I started the wearing the pheromones.”[uMkay, that’s just a little more than I needed to know -b]

10:54pm

Worked four hours. Froze nearly to death on commute. got home. Had big plans to haul out the fake tree and light it up, do Christmas cards. Instead I surfed and gafawwed at stupid websites.

What can I say? I’ve only just joined the awake world 5 hours ago and still feel as though I’m asleep…

I decided not keep the appointment I had scheduled for today. I was supposed to visit that college I mentioned before, that I kinda sorta wanna attend. Then I called the cool nutty granola woman at that office in Uptown, where I had an interview last week. When the assistant answered, I took a second to express my undying keen interest in the gig, and hoped out loud for an answer as to whether I got the job. They told me that indeed I had not. Dang. Oh well guess I’ll live through it. Nothing new.

I also can’t decide, whether I should do school during the day and have a night job or stick w/FT days. I still have my PT job, which explains the silly graphic above. I just threw it together in hopes of brightening my day.

I’ve made a pot of coffee and now I’v just GOT to get to the store and purchase a pack of cancer sticks before I jones out and fall on the floor. But first!

JOB HUNTING…it’s not just for breakfast anymore. What a BIIIITCH! Oh, sweet, 14merciful mother of god, puhleeze help me get a freaking gig sometime this century!

…btw, it should be known that although Monday was DAY ONE of my stint as a partially unemployed! chick, and as of midnight Tuesday it is DAY THREE, the date I created this newsletter was DAY TWO, I just was too darned lazy to post it up until way after prime homepage flippin’ time. (midnight, central standard time to you). Thus, still DAY TWO, and so it shall be!

Dangit! today for like, two hours, the weblogs’ server must’ve been down ’cause I couldn’t get to my site…dang dang dang! All’s better later though, well ok, I was paranoid for a minute there, LOL. Just making sure someone hasn’t hacked my site up… I mean, sometimes I have my cookies set and sometimes I don’t and my ’so called’ friends come over here and uses my pc sometimes but I doubt they could have done anything, STILL…you never know.
Hey, lookah what I found…somebody’s dirtyass mind took over and they went searching for cumshots and my site came up! yikes…

Whoo hoo! I made #100 of the top 100 page reads at weblogs. Surely someone out there loves me, even if it’s just a little bit.

AS SEEN ON tee vee!Oooh! aren’t you dying for an EGGWAVE under your tree this Christmas?!

I heart the Kids In The Hall!
I love love love them, and now that I’ve been at home during the day alot more, I am smitten with the tv. At least for awhile. I really don’t DO that much tv, really! Some folks have decided that IT’S JUST NOT COOL and I need to be more plugged into the boob toob. I’ve been called anti-tv, a commie, a loser…whatEVER. I got better stuff to do, thanks very much.

And if domains aren’t ALREADY a headache…
Now you can have more pain! The new web suffixes are changing the rules yet again on how companies registar domains, and has a huge impact on indexing and placement in search engines, as well as site traffic. The introduction of seven new domain names will also throw companies’ for a loop when seeking to protect their trademarks and brands. Sounds like something that would require a 12-step program to cope with. [full story here. -b]

Smell-O-Web?
Yes indeedy! http://www.digiscents.com/ is planning on bringing a fourth sense to the www. Called iSmell, the idea is this: A small plastic box is attached to your pc which is filled with bulbs that hold scented oils. When you dial up a site with the plug in to communicate with the smelly peripheral, it causes it to waft hot air across a combination of the oils to make up the scent. [so now with sound and sight being covered, and touch on the way, in six years is it possible that I can not only visit my favorite restaurant online, but also smell the special of the week, to boot? When can we start licking stuff? Who can stand to wait for that? I can. How many more questions shall I ask? I’ll shut up now. -b]

HotOffice.com to turn cold soon
I’ve never even heard of this store, which would explain some of why it’s closing down… Customers have apparently been e-mailed a notification that HotOffice will cease operations on December 19th. [Dammit, Intelligent X did not provide a link to this one…must be unconfirmed. If that’s the case, you didn’t hear this from me! Also, Intelligent X has even stated themselves that even though they’re not sure why, this news seems to have made some people around the Intelligent X office a bit nervous. Word has it that thousands of people signed up under the impression that it was an adult entertainment site. Hmmm…porn at the office? Hey, whatever will get ya a raise, I guess! -b]

Good Night, Mr. Snoozleberg
Although it is alot of fun, and very cute, This game will drive you nuts…if you know what’s good for you, you will not go play it. It is a Shockwave-based game and the object of it is to move around the objects around this sleepwalking man, in order to not wake him. If you can get him to pass through the scene safely, you win. Fun, for killing time and the effects are fun, too but it is habit forming and not as simple as you’d think.
