UPDATED Online Dating: The Profile
But, like any good lemming looking for a cliff, I am moving forward with the online dating. At least for now. You never know when that cliff might suddenly appear.
To that end, I have incorporated your suggestions from the comments section below, and from my Facebook page. You may recognize the first paragraph from the profile I used years ago. I had removed it, but when Kathy suggested including my sense of humor, I added that first paragraph back in. I also mentioned the “Bipolar Kitty Test”. Heh.
But, wait! There's more...The Day the Hose Froze: A Blond Moment
and then turned on the faucet… *pthhh pthhhh* Water trickled and sputtered out of the faucet for a couple seconds before stopping altogether.
??
I tried it again a few minutes later… *pthhh pthhh pthh* Then nothing.
?? Could it be my wrapped pipes froze?
I turned on the hot water heater. My logic behind this: If the wrapped hose and pipes are frozen, I should still be able to get water from the hot water heater, which is inside and independent of the frozen hose outside. I later learned this logic is a tad “blond”.
But, wait! There's more...The Creek Dun Rose…
Unlike my usual “panic like a lemming” mode, I didn’t sit inside waiting for the water to rise. Instead, I went out and took a bunch of flood pictures from the water’s edge. For you, my dear Kernutties, for you I braved Mother Nature’s destruction, risking life and limb, to get y’all some photos. You’re welcome.
But, wait! There's more...How to kill Bugzilla, my once well-groomed rommate.
Bugzilla is no longer afraid of the light. Even worse, Bugzilla is no longer afraid of me.
He scurries back and forth across the front edge of the counter, as if marking out his territory. Meanwhile, I stand stock still, trying to decide how to try and kill him this time. I’m standing there watching his every move, mentally recounting the many unsuccessful methods I’d previously employed to try end his scurrying life.
But, wait! There's more...I just got felt up by TSA
I’m at the Sioux Falls airport checking in for my return flight to Austin (via snowy Denver). At the security check point I put all my stuff on the conveyer belt and turn around to go through the metal detector. But there is no metal detector. In its place is … But, wait! There’s more…
Bugzilla, my new roommate.
. I’m beginning to doze off, my eyes start to droop and I manage to bookmark my page when out of the corner of my eye I see a LARGE, dark object moving very rapidly across the wall.
On the wall is the biggest roach I’ve ever seen. It’s at least two inches long NOT counting the antennae. NO LIE! It’s so big it actually makes sounds as it’s feet scurry along the wall, unlike other insects that are TOO SMALL TO MAKE SOUNDS WHEN THEY MOVE.
But, wait! There's more...Severe Weather Alert: Like a cow pissin on a flat rock.
Like a cow pissin’ on a flat rock, it’s raining in Texas. When they say “Everything is bigger in Texas” they mean the rain. And the wind and hail stones! Forty m.p.h. winds?? Last. Night. I was scared shitless, y’all. I’m from California – I prefer earthquakes. This morning when … But, wait! There’s more…
UPDATED: Woman vs. Machine x 2
Or “The time my laptop died, and the windows let in the rain.” Believe it or not, these things are not related. Don’t worry, the post about the naked guy in Quartzsite is still coming, but there’s been a slight delay… The Sacred Laptop, holder of all photos, articles, and … But, wait! There’s more…
I’m Not a Normal Person, But I Play One on TV
If you’ve been here more than once you know I’m probably not what most people call “normal”. I tend to do crazy things, or end up in odd situations, things that just don’t seem to happen to “normal” folks. Like the job I had where I drew schematics for nuclear … But, wait! There’s more…
