Friday fluff

This comes from here.


What's your sexual orientation?
I'm probably a 4.27.  How 'bout you?
americantransman.com
Do you share your bedroom with someone? If yes, with who??
My husband is invited nightly.  He gets kicked out at the first snore though.  Sorry, Partner, you knew that shit before you married me.  Also: Estelah.  She's like a freaking virus.  She goes wherever the hell she wants.  I've woken up many times with an impossibly small elbow in my gut.  People who say I should cherish these days can eat it.  I'm tired.

Do you resemble a famous celebrity?
Unfortunately.  Jaime Lee Curtis.  I've been told that since I was 11.

The prettiest JLC picture that exists anywhere.
My breasts don't look like this.  I'm not sad about that.
I'm surprised any of us ever got laid.  Ever.
I'm the inordinately tall one to the right, with the jutting clavicle and the stripper leg.
The one who most resembles, even at the age of 14, an old, androgynous, two-bit actress.
I'm tall.  See the little ones on the left?  One of them became my best friend.  I ate the other one.
What brand is your mobile?
Do people really talk like that?  My mobile is Apple brand.

What keychains do you have with your house keys?
I don't.  I have a single car key and a single house key on a ring.  Stuff is bullshit.

Do you drive? If yes, what cars do you own?
I love to drive.  Driving is one of my top two favorite things to do.  I own a Ferrari, a Bentley and two Audis.  Next, I'm saving up my money to buy a 2000 Mazda Premacy.  Bitch is gonna be suh-weet.

Do you read the newspaper?
No.  I don't.  If I'm walking past and there's an interesting headline, I'll buy it.  But everything's online now.  Feels decadent to kill a tree just for news that's going to be old by the time it's printed anyway.  The NYT digital edition serves my needs.

Is the TV on right now?
No.  The TV is not on.  The computer is.  I've never been a tv-in-the-background kind of girl.

What song are you hearing right now?
I'm listening to the dehumidifier dehumidifying.  It makes me feel sleepy.  I feel on the verge of slipping into a coma, actually.

Any favorite books you wanna mention here?
I got in trouble for reading VC Andrews' Flowers in the Attic when I was ten.  My mom found the book on my bed and returned it to her bookshelf.  I returned it to my bed.  She put it on a higher shelf.  I returned it to my bed.  She put it in her drawer.  I returned it to my bed.  Then she yelled at me for going through her drawers.  This is pretty much how we communicated as a family--just sub out the book for various things like tampons, condoms, college applications, etc.  I am tempted to say Flowers in the Attic was my favorite childhood book.  So there's that.

Are you up-to-date with the latest news on celebrities?
Nope.  I used to be, a few years ago.  And then I realized how much time I was wasting by giving a shit.  Also, I realized I was desensitizing myself to the fact that these celebrities are real people.  Real, living, breathing people who are just as stupid as I am.  Who gives a shit.  It's all Photoshop anyway.

That being said, I apparently care enough about them to have four separate people email me the news of David Beckham's underwear line for H&M.  Four.  I'm making them all the godparents of my children.  Obvi.  The one who sent me the video, though, kind of wins.  If you're going to watch this, make sure you have time to take a shower afterwards.




Have you ever lied to a best friend?
I lie all the time to my BFF.  The bad thing is, she knows it.  She'll be like, "You're being ridiculously inappropriate, aren't you?"  And I'll be like, "NO!  Oh my god, no.  It's so not like that.  You have no idea how appropriate I am being."  And then she'll be like, "You need to shut that shit down, you freak."  Sigh.

Do you consider yourself intelligent?
Yes.  Though sometimes I wonder.

Are you a morning person or a night person?
I'd be a night person if my children actually SLEPT.  But as it is now, the only chance of my getting any real sleep is before two--when my daughter wakes up, like clockwork, every fucking night, to punish me for my desire to have a family.

She's holding a dinosaur.  She is ALWAYS holding a dinosaur.
That's how you know something's off with her.
Do you enjoy doing stuff on your own?
Heh heh.  Yes.

Next week, we're doing this one: http://www.quizopolis.com/survey/7478/Interesting--Survey/  And just to clarify: you absolutely do not need an invitation to join up.  If you read this and want to play, please do.  Everyone is welcome.


21 people had something to say about it:

  1. I feeled compelled to share that I thought that wanted to Nanowrimo what. Brand of mobile...as in thing you hang above a crib, or fancy 70's decor...you had. So then I tried to picture a mobile made of apples...holy crap, why is it not Friday here yet,? I am clearly ready!

  2. Flowers in the Attic fucked with my head so hardcore. Actually I guess not as much that one, but the 3 after it. Just....wow.
    I think I'm going to have to do this one. We'll see how naptime goes tomorrow. Also, the ever important; will I post that I'm a 2 or a 4? Or maybe just stop being and idiot and go with 3. Hmmmm.

    1. Holy shit, guys. I just googled that chick. Ummm. She's gorgeous. If she and I have anything in common, it's that we both have faces.

    2. For realz. I saw the trailer a few months ago and almost shat in the theater. You a hot POA, biatch.

    3. Clarification: The trailer for The Artist, which looks amazing.

    4. In fact, I googled the film as soon as I got home to find out who she was, but I kept forgetting to tell you.

    5. Have I told you lately that I love you?

      Also? I've never seen Piece Of Ass truncated in this way before. I think I've just added a new word to my ever expanding, shrinking vocabulary.

    6. I really like mindy and this thread.

    7. So it's pouring here and I'm sick and coughing up oyster-like mucous chunks, and you ladies just perked me up. XOXO

  5. My best friend and I, who lived maybe an entire ten minute drive apart, used to mail each other V.C. Andrews books. Mom would try to tell me "Jessie, I could drive it to her house faster than to the post office". But I didn't care. And then, she'd also say I was supposed to leave some of the package un-written-upon so the postmistress can find the address. She once had to completely re-envelope the whole affair. And because she was my Mom, she did it. Other mothers would have quietly stuffed it in the mailbox without mentioning not mailing it.

  6. what brand is your mobile? really? who thinks that shit up?

  7. Zomg, what Mindy said. I mean, no clue who that chick is, but there is a resemblance. Also, JLC is not two-bit(hello, Trading Places and Anything But Love) and has not always been old or androgynous. I have strong feelings about this and I want the internets to know, damnit.
    Flowers in the Attic fucked my shit up for life. I read every single book until I realized the writer had been dead for several years. What is it about adolescence that makes you wish for a brother so you can be imprisoned with him in an attic and have a sick and twisted love? Ah, youth.

    1. So glad I'm not the only one.

    2. Yup. Me, too. I had two brothers, though. I think I'd go the arsenic route rather than the illicit love route, but, you know. It's that Lord of the Flies mentality, you know? Kids ruling their own worlds. It really is kind of a kids' book, isn't it?

      I read all of them, too. I remember something about the chick ending up with the ballet dude? I thought that was pretty hot. Even at ten. Maybe even ESPECIALLY at ten.

      Delete
    3. I really hope that's not where my ballet obsession came from. Good thing I'm already in therapy.

  8. you're much more attractive than Jamie Lee. I checked before i commented. I'm allowed to call you attractive just not hot and or pretty.

    4.27? I'm a 1.18. I've been hit on by men 3 times in my life and I was too flattered.
