on non-showers

Posted by: fiftypercentninja on: June 1, 2009

If you have really good friends, you can sometimes start to think you’re putting together the wedding you want.

Yesterday was my non-shower.  I highly recommend a non-shower if:

  • the idea of shower games makes you want to blow your own head off
  • you are severely lacking in female friends
  • avoiding the accumulation of stuff is a priority
  • you aren’t so materially driven that you need shower AND wedding gifts from your already cash-strapped friends
  • you prefer good company to bullshit

My bestest friend took my mum and I out for manicures, and then we met up with everyone who is making the journey east for the wedding at a restaurant — a restaurant, might I add, that only serves cake — for a chat and a laugh.  My lovely mum bought a round of cake for everyone and we had a very chilled out, easy-going time of it.

Some drama, but not enough to ruin a freaking perfect day.

Weddings can be what you want them to be.  If your wedding isn’t, get better friends.

rest in peace

A blow to women and womens’ rights.  Rest in peace, Dr. Tiller.

Obama says he’s shocked, saddened by Tiller death

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama says he is shocked and outraged over the killing of an abortion provider at a Kansas church.

Dr. George Tiller was shot and killed Sunday morning while he was serving as an usher at a church in Wichita, Kan. The White House released a statement from the president Sunday evening.

Obama says violence is not the answer to resolve differing opinions on abortion and said the shooting is a murder. Tiller was one of the nation’s few providers of late-term abortions. He was the object of decades of protests and attacks.

THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP’s earlier story is below.

conversation with my mechanic

Mechanic: There’s nothing wrong with this car.

Me: The oil light came on.

Mechanic: And you put oil in it.

Me: It seemed hot.

Mechanic: Cars being hot is what makes them go.

Me: So there’s nothing wrong with the car?

Mechanic: Well.  There’s too much oil in it now.  But you did that.

I know you are feeling like you need a bit more attention paid to you, but demanding a tow from O-town to M’ville is honestly not the answer.  I look after you.  I get everything checked when I should.  I always give you what you need.  Please.  No more demands for tows.  They are really tedious.

… HLM got one of these:

And tomorrow, that car behind it and I are heading back to Ontario for Congress.  My first time doing the whole twelve hours on my own.  I’m nervous!  And I’ll be gone for two whole weeks.  HLM won’t miss me, though.  See above.

… is pretty freaking fantastic.  The preview was tonight, but the series doesn’t start until the fall.  (CRUEL, Fox, by the way!)  Glee is about a high school Glee Club.  A high school Glee Club that sings Journey.  Need I say more?

If you missed out, here’s the extended trailer.

ah, reality TV trash

Wow.

Mary Carey, of being a giant whore and also Celebrity Rehab fame, has decided that whoring around is more her speed than the whole sobriety thing.  She’s back in porn!  Not only is she back in porn, but she’s mocking the only reason people who aren’t locked in a basement jerking it had ever heard of her.

CLASSY.

running!
