Randomly speaking about me

Crap. I'm totally out of the internet "cool" group which completely bums me out. Tragically, the last time I was "cool" was high school and maybe a few days in college before I cut my hair. I just read there's a big fun hip happening on Facebook. And btw, I'm such a dud I've never visited the storied site and don't really know what it is or does. Nope, "I'm lookin' for love in all the wrong places" I guess. This big fest is called, "25 Random Things About Me". What could possibly be more fun!? Or more boring? RANDOM is the operative word in this writing exercise and so far 5 million people have been willing to 'fess up. Wow, and why?

It sounds kinda intriguing however and time filling. Just to prove I'm not a complete internet loser I've decided to give it a try... but cheat and only write 15. More than that would require a therapist and medication. I'm pleading, begging on my freaking hands and knees that I'm not alone in this. Please, please, pretty please write at LEAST 1 random thought about yourself in the "Comments" at the bottom. I'm on the ledge, don't let me die out here alone!

1. I wanted to marry Spin of the "Spin and Marty" show when I was 10.
2. On second thought I really just wanted his horse.
3. I wanted to be a cheerleader in high school, but "white girl couldn't jump".
4. I cried when Adlai Stevenson lost the election
5. I didn't have sex in high school
6. I only eat the frosting and leave the cake
7. I keep ice skates in the trunk of my car
8. I've been watching "All My Children" for 35 years
9. I never read "War and Peace" but say I did
10. I saw the Beatles at Comiskey Park in Chicago in the '60s, but my
parents had better seats
11. I washed my dad's car with SOS by mistake, but didn't know it was a mistake
12. I wish Oprah would call
13. I can cook but pretend I can't
14. I lie about my mother's age
15 She lies about mine

My sister used to make me cry when she told me I looked like Buddy Hackett when I was 6 months old.

Well, at 14 I accidentially farted in a phone with with Doris Costaldi who had big tits and I who I wanted to feel up.

Also the only thing I aspired to was to have a big office and I had to sign things.

when i was 14 i was very religious.
one Sunday as I walked a girl home
from Sunday School she said " I can
run faster with my skirts up than you can run with your pants down" I
was to young and pure to recognize the invitation.

A year later I left the church because I was now drinking and smoking. Too bad she was no longer
there to have me walk home.

When I was 8 years old I told my dad I wanted to marry a Greenland Man. He told me it was very cold in Greenland so I thought Greenland men looked like snow men and I lost complete interest in men. (lol)

I had sex in high school and I admit it Gail. Lets be honest here.

I can't stand the color pink or lace. My Mother bought me a Pink long dress with lace for my Sweet 16 birthday and I thought about burning it, I didn't because I knew Ishe would kill me.. Oh did I mention I also can't stand dresses?

Last time I wore a skirt was in 1990 and it was to a costume party, I went as a Drag Queen.

Terry, you never looked like Buddy Hackett, Gail needed glasses or what was she smoking?

My sister used to chase me with dead, plucked chickens around the house, I cried every time and she laughed until one day I put a dead chicken between her sheets, payback is a bitch isn't it?

I’ve never lied about my age. I know how old you are Gail hahaha…You can’t lie to the family darling….

I have 4 tatoos and my family has no idea and I am getting a 5th one on my birthday.

You didn't have sex in highschool? What else was there to do in highschool? Oh yes I remember now, go to classes, right, yup, now wonder why I forgot what Algebra is all about.

I too had a crush on Spin.
I didn't have sex in high school because I was convinced no one else was & when I went to my 20th reunion, everyone chided me & said "what were you waiting for?" I was furious.
Had a bigger crush on Jim Morrison.
I'd lie about my age, but then I'd forget that I lied & just be confused.
Hate loud cell phone talkers. Don't mind gyms, but avoid the big mirrors (takes a certain talent, like only looking at the eye you're putting the makeup on, rather than the surrounding wrinkles...)
Don't like shopping for clothes, although if there were a nearby Target, I could rethink that.
I LOVE hardware stores: love the aisles of nuts & bolts, love the strange coils & pipes & tubes & measuring devices.

Ok I am bored so I will go through Gail's blog and keep my comments going.

I love hardware stores too, I will spend hours going through the isles and wonder what I can invent, re-do, put together or design. I spent 2 1/2 hours yesterday at Home Depot and my girlfriend called me on my cell "Honey? Lunch was ready 1 1/2 hours ago, where are you?" "I'm at Home Depot" "still? You were only getting 6 Unitrak brackets" "I know but.. but... but.. ok I'm on my way home" Got home with the brackets, a new tool belt (I already have 5 but this one was on sale) and a can of red paint for my "Pimps and Ho's birthday party" next weekend, need to paint one wall "whore red" you know what I mean?...

I love to swim naked in the mornings

I hate children yelling and screaming at grocery stores, so what I do is that I look at them and I yell and scream just like them till they shut the F*&^ up!, Their moms hate me but what are they going to do to me? Hit me with their purse? I'll hit them with my pocketknife; I won't draw any blood I promise.

I hate people that cheat while playing games.

I love competitive people.

I can't stand racists people

I love people that accept others for who they are and not what they are.

I can't stand religious hypocrites.

I rather cut my ear off than to hear a religious sermon.

I love honesty, imagination, communication and the smell of fresh cut grass

I once had a hamster called Panchita who committed suicide. Yup she did, it was so sad..

When I lived in Israel I was bit by a snake and was very afraid of them, till a friend of mine brought her pet snake and now I find them quite beautiful.

I can't kill anything, not even a roach. But I would kill Obama.

I can't stand Tex Mex food, there is nothing like real Mexican food.

My girlfriend calls me handsome and I like it that way.

My girlfriend's brother said I was pretty, I told him Katherine says I am handsome; he calls me "pretty handsome Jen". hahaha, I like that too.

My girlfriend loves to watch the TV show "What not to wear" and this past weekend I expanded the closet to fit all her clothes (that’s why I needed to go to Home Depot) I told her that she should get rid of some of her clothes that she doesn’t wear (I said this while she was watching the show, not a good thing folks) and she looked at me and said "you think my clothes are ugly and out of fashion?" and I said “ammm nope, your clothes are in style and very pretty honey, I just need room for my 10 jeans, 10 slacks and 20 shirts, that's all" she turned off the TV and sat me on a chair and tried on every single piece of clothing in the closet "Jen, just act like you are the judge on that show and tell me if I look bad in any of my clothes" I had the opportunity of getting rid of 32 of her dresses but she looks beautiful in all of them so I still need space for my small amount of clothes... She won! Not only am I handsome but I am a gentlewoman too...

Listen up guys; open the door for your woman and don’t just open it and then walk away also close it for her, specially the car door. Pull up a chair for them, help them in the kitchen, tell them everyday that they are beautiful and mean it. Learn from this pretty handsome gentlewoman please! It works!!! Do these things and you'll never be denied sex...Unless you are the kind of guy that in 15 seconds you are done, that alone will make your woman not interested in anything you have to give, except money of course.
