SMARTER

I got an e-mail yesterday from my mom letting me know that "someone" had "told her" that I put the picture of her mattress on my blog and "IF it is true" to please take it down since I embarrassed her "IF in fact I put it on there." I saw through her poorly constructed lie and told her I would take it down when she told me from where she got the blog address and how long she'd been reading it. But what's that phrase about how smart people don't ask questions unless they already know the answer?

Guess what? An Oompa Linda who can barely run an iPod on her own is no match for a cunning and technologically savvy bored but employed mid-twenty-something, who not only knows whose blog you visit to get to mine, but when you visit, how often, and what you read when you do! And whom you send the link to in oh, I don't know, Denver? Oh, young grasshopper. How quickly you will learn.

So, without further ado, let's all officially welcome my mom to the blog. It's okay, Mom. I won't even change the address this time.

PS: I still stand by my assertation that if she ever joins Facebook, I'm done.

  2. Dear David,
    Just because you didn't understand Pearls of Wit until I explained it to you, doesn't mean it's a bad name. Get used to it.
    Love,

  3. Dear Lindsay,
    If you have to explain a blog name, it's probably not very clear. Vote for passthesass!

  4. Dear previous commentors,
    First off, I don't like writing my comments in letter form.
    Secondly, I don't know what the conversation about blog naming is about, much less what passthesass is/was. But if we're voting I will stay along the "sass" lines and vote for hotpieceofsass.

  5. Dear TBRDE/Wessy,
    We are talking about what I am going to name the blog in a few weeks. I had a poll up on the right side of the blog, but I took it down today and replaced it with a poll of the Final Four new names. You need to vote on which is your favorite. And you can always comment in any form you want to: letter, riddle, heck I'd like a good haiku.
    Love,
    L

  8. OK LULU and all her friends...(Hello everyone!)
    Don't mess with me or I will use my editing skills to correct your BLOG: The word is assertion--not assertation. You are thinking about a dissertation--you probably wrote one of these as well about me ever joining Facebook!!! I love you my cabbage!
