I like you, Betty.


I have this problem

Which isn’t embarrassing to me, really, so much as highly amusing. But it probably should be embarrassing.  It’s probably more embarrassing to other people than it is me.

You see, I have a bit of an iron deficiency in my blood which causes me to bruise really easily. Super easily. I always have bruises that I don’t know the origin of because I happened to bump into something somewhere.

I also happen to be engaging in some activities of the adult variety with a man who likes to bite.

You can see where this is going, right?

Normally it’s fine. Just a nip or two. They look a lot worse than they feel. But let’s just say that on certain occasions, if I wanted to, I could walk into a police precinct and have him thrown in the slammer for domestic abuse. And he wouldn’t have a chance in hell of defending himself.

It’s ok now that it’s getting cooler and it makes sense for me to wear long sleeves.  But when it was a zillion degrees outside and all I normally wear is tank tops, it took some creative costuming to keep people from asking questions.

Luckily, it’s freezing in my office, so I always wear a sweater and no questions need be asked. Can you imagine a coworker showing up one day with bruises all down her arm? Lord how the rumors would fly.

Personally, I think this is hilarious. It amuses me to no end the damage he manages to do to me. It’s kind of mind boggling, really. Because in the process, it never seems that bad. A bite or two here and there never hurt anybody. On a normal person, they’d probably not even show up as bruises.  But lucky for me, they show up as a freaking Monet all down my alabaster skin.



There’s a place in France…

(A wee bit of background: One of my very best friends is a guy. A guy who happens to be a stellar shag. Since neither of us are in relationships, we’ve been entertaining each other as of late. This is what happened last night.)

We were out having beer and wings and the conversation lead to strippers. Yeah, I don’t know, these things happen. He says, “We should go. We should go to the skin joint.” Even though I’d never actually been to a strip joint, I’m not adverse to such things, so I said “Sure!”

We live in a small town, on an island. The town gets significantly larger come summertime, but it’s still not huge. It is apparently big enough, however, for two strip clubs. Also, there are 8 pages of escort services ads in the phone book. Not that I would know. Guess a town doesn’t have to be large to have plenty of debauchery.

Anyway, girls can’t get into strip clubs by themselves, but when they’re with a guy, they get in free! Such a deal. He let me pick the seating. I was curious as hell, so I picked a seat near the stage, but not the ones right at it. Little bit of distance is good, but I wanted to let him see the girls.

Let me tell you, it was funny as hell. I get why men like it, I’m no idiot. I’ve seen my share of porn, I have no objections to any of this. But I took a lot of dance classes growing up, and I couldn’t help but look at it through a dancer’s eye. My assessment is that I would be a much better stripper than any of these girls.

I understand that the reason they’re dancing is to turn men on and get cash money and not to perform a ballet. But not a single one of these bitches had an ounce of rhythm. Only one of them looked not bored.

The set-up is that each girl gets three songs to dance. They pick their own songs. Some of the songs they picked, you wouldn’t believe. Modest Mouse’s Float On, America’s Sister Golden Hair?? WTF? You can’t dance to that! There’s nothing sexy about 70s soft rock. And like your hair is actually golden, you liar.*

The not bored one picked dance songs, techno-like tunes. She was great because she was actually dancing. I made my friend give her money. One of them picked Fiona Apple’s Criminal, which, hey, I fully approve. You could really have fun with that one. You know, if you didn’t suck as hard as this girl. That is a great, sexy song. She really flubbed it up.

The best part was the setup of the stage. Big stage, two story pole (which, I will admit, led to some very impressive acrobatics, I’ll give them that.), one tiny 3-step staircase right in the front of the stage. When a guy wanted a bit of close up action, or wanted to stuff dollar bills in tiny strips of elastic, he’d go stand at the bottom of the stairs and the girl would come over to him and gyrate. Watching grown men stand at the bottom of the stair case, dollars in hand, eyes agape, waiting for the girl to come over was the funniest thing I’ve ever seen. They looked like overgrown children, waiting for the ice cream truck. Like they were thinking “If I stand here nice and quiet and behave myself, I get a reward!”

So in the end, I’m absolutely fascinated by this place. I have to admit, I did enjoy myself. I don’t care for boobies, but it was a bit of a turn on watching my guy watch the girls. Also a bit of a turn on to watch the girls, realize that I could do better, and plan in my head how I’ll prove it to my guy once we get home.

* I made this comment to my friend and he told me the best joke ever. What do a blonde and a Boeing 747 have in common? They both have black boxes. HAH.



My New Motto

I generally have movies on in the background of my computer at work, mostly so I can weed out the sound of my coworkers. Today I’m watching Serenity, the film version of the short-lived yet awesome TV show Firefly. One of the characters said something hilarious and I thought, you know, if I had a motto, that would probably be close to it.

Since it’s Friday and my boss is already gone, I figured I’d futz around a bit and make myself an official seal. This was my first try, but it makes me laugh so hard I might just keep it.
