Disclaimer that some of you have heard already: Yeah, excuses ARE just like assholes in that everybody has one, but I'm still saying this. I am making a concentrated effort to not waste any of the alcohol in this house, something the movers will not take. Unrelated to that effort (at least not consciously), I made a hi ball way too strong tonight and am writing with numb teeth.
Why don't any of you update over the weekend?? I finally have time to catch up, and there's so little to read. It pisses me off! I wade throught this long-assed list of links when I have the time to do so, and am completely disappointed in the little that I find. Props go to Sarcastic Journalist, Knotty Pine, Suburban Bliss and Torrie (need to add you to Recommended Reading, but am too lazy at the moment please forgive me) for making an effort to amuse me today. Yes, I know you did it just for me, and I appreciate that.
And while we're on the topic of Things That Are Pissing Me Off (and I won't even say how long it took me to type that), let's mention The The's new commercial. My favorite band, quoted in at least two of my mastheads (including the current one), apparently has a song in a new Dockers commercial. WHAT THE FUCK!!!??? On the last album dude had a song aboug selling out. WHAT THE FUCK!!!???
And while I'm still ranting, I'll bitch also about Dan's disappointment. After Susie with her "The Rosie," I noticed a link from this website. It turned out to be none other than Dan from Real World Miami! I loved him! How he totally told off that what's-her-name for opening and reading his personal letter, the bitch! His antics on the challenges! I'm sure it wasn't him visiting, though. And as hurt as I am about his failure to acknowledge me in my star struck moment in leaving him a comment (haha - really kidding here - imagine Susie asking favors of Constantine, John and Henry), I'll still read his blog because he's that amusing.
Yeah, I'm going to bed now. Shut up with your sober selves.
mrtl, I've been too busy figuring out blogshares to update my blog (haha).

Who says we're sober? My lips get numb, not my teeth.
I updated this weekend, tho not with anything witty or funny.
Funny, you've reminded me of an old friend of mine for a while now, and her fave band is THE THE too. hmmm.

Hello mrtl! Hope you wake up feeling alright ;) Just so you know I update almost, but not quite, daily. Mind you I'm not nearly as entertaining as you!

Ah, mrtl, so sorry to disappoint. But on the weekends, the desperate working momma has got to be a momma. It's a trial. I am so not kidding.
I'm all "What's that, TGIM? You want me to parent?! FREAKIN' HELL!" And my 9-year-old son gets all pissy with "You're on the computer AGAIN?!!" Which in Guilt-Speak translates to "You don't loooooooove meeeeeeee!"
SIGH.
I hope you had a nice, relaxing weekend despite the blog dearth and funky band sell-outs. I mean seriously, the Gap?

LMFAO!! Can't wait until my computer is up and running at home...drunk blogging! It's not just for breakfast anymore ;-)

I posted about a COCK RING on Saturday. What more entertainment do you want, woman? A COCK RING! Sheesh...
:)

So sorry, mrtl! I am without internet access at home until May 11, so I won't be posting if I'm not at work... Hmmm... I'm sure there's something about that sentence that isn't right...
Oh! You have movers?! Color me all sorts of envious. We're STILL moving our stuff from the old house to the new house, and we just keep finding more stuff to move. WTF? We've been moving since April 13, seriously.
I hope you're doing well today, mrtl.

Hi all. Let me first apologize for not keeping a running list of all those who did update over the weekend. Kalki, I did see your cock ring post and still think you should have put the cock ring on the flower. La Pix, I did see the beautiful pics of Chou Chou and the update on Ray. (And we The The fans are a fairly small bunch; say hi to your friend for me!) Bente - saw yours too... and lil sister. Yeah I suck! But my teeth were numb. Give me a fucking break!
Cat, you're forgiven. Sucks that they're too old for naps, huh?
Kelli, there's no way we could move ourselves to Alaska, especially with all the crap we've accumulated. Believe me, I miss the days where all my stuff fit in the back of a pickup. Life was so much more simple then.
Thanks for all the well wishes. I feel like shit this morning, no thanks to the hi ball. With mister mrtl not home, I went to bed at my mister mrtless time: 1am. Bug woke up at 6 and refused to nap with me. Instead she sat on the bed watching Noggin and farting right next to my face. Can you feel the love? You're lucky you couldn't smell it.

Funny post. A little trick for the movers and liquor. Pack it all up so it does not rattle or break and say that it is "cleaning supplies" or "baby needs". They will move it for you.

I had beautiful photographs and a most inspirational message. Which, of course, you would not appreciate on accounta your being a whiney, ungrateful, drunken heathen. Bless your heart. (I am a Southern Girl.)

umm are you OK? We are sorry we are lazy and didn't update our blogs! Please don't be a hater..it won't happend again!
Posted by: Pissy Britches | 2005.05.02 at 11:15 AM
I updated ALOT over the weekned. Updated while drinking, drunk, and hung over. I had boobie pictures, kid pictures, and other stuff. Note: boobie and kids were NOT in the same post. That. Is. All.
Hope things go ok for you with the moving and all. Good Luck!

I am guilty of not posting over the weekend. Just got a phone call from my brother, complaining about me not posting. I try to live a life away from the computer on the weekends. But, on the other hand, I didn't realize people were posting about cock rings on the weekend. I might have to start blogsurfing on saturday nights!

Thanks for the shout-out.
I dig you.
Posted by: Torrie | 2005.05.02 at 09:50 PM
To the second wave - more apologies abound.
My problem (one of them at least) is that I check in too much. You may have *just* updated yesterday morning, but tonight that's SO LONG AGO!
And yes, I did see the ta-ta's.
