I haven’t done anything yet. I just woke up and checked my email. I won a zip drive on eBay. I need this because I cannot find the 2 zip drives I own, and my high res cleavage pics are on a zip disk. You prolly remember my rant from last week that included being tweaked about the missing zip drives. Mr. Fabulous has extended the time for the cleavage contest, which gives the new zip drive an opportunity to arrive. My cleavage pics are really very good pics. I am amazed every time I see them!
The reason for the title of this blog is that my cell phone plays “What I’ve Done” by Linkin Park when someone not on my contact list calls. Apparently, Kaige called while I was sleeping. Well, not really. But what she did do was tag me for a meme. I’m not yet sure I like memes. I mean the last time I got tagged with a meme, everyone I gave it to either didn’t do it or had already done it a thousand times. To give Kaige her due, she says this one is new. It’s like Telephone. Huh.
So if I have to tag three more people for this, how the hell do I do that? Well, I figure I can payback Tempest for tagging me with the last one. She writes. This won’t be hard for her. I’ll get Shiny. She likes little writing games. If you haven’t read Shiny’s blog, give it a try. She’s new to blogging, but her chill pill post was an interesting rant.
It’s a toss up for who I’ll pick for the third tag. I REALLY want to see Matt-Man do this. He’s ultra creative, sly and amusing, and he has a really big great organ. However, I’ll be a good girl and tag Jennifer, since she’s a writer. It’s a writing meme, so I guess I should choose only those people who call themselves writers. Matt ruminates and lets it spill over onto his blog and makes the rest of us spit up whatever we’re drinking all over our monitors. Ya gotta luv a man with talent!
BTW, I submitted my IT rant at Today’s Gripe. I hope they post it. It felt sooo good to rant. Also, I have a mini rant about the Sunday Scribble thing before I actually get to this meme. Susan said, “Just use something you’ve already posted”. Not a bad suggestion, so I tried it. Guess what happened? The Sunday Scribble people didn’t really like that. They didn’t name names, of course, but I totally feel like I got a gentle chiding. It goes like this:
We’ve had a few new members lately! Welcome!! Just a few reminders for you: Please make sure that when you put in your link that you give the link to the actual post that makes sense with the prompt, not just to your blog. Also please try to write something new for the prompt. That is what this is all about after all!
Guess who ain’t going back? What I did post for their word thingy was more than a measly little paragraph. It was a post that required time and thought and a lot of creative energy, when I wrote it. Sure, it wasn’t MEANT specifically for their little exercise, but it takes time to figure out something that fits the prompt. The chiding didn’t endear them to me, although I could be taking it entirely wrong. Still, I knew there was a reason I didn’t play those little “exercise” games. Rant done. Whew! I’m in a bitchy fucked up mood, ain’t I?
Okay, so here’s how this meme works. Alice from Alice’s Restaurant started this meme. It’s that game called Telephone that I never played as a kid. I don’t think it was around then. I mean, my friends and I weren’t into the phone. We rode bikes and skateboards and threw rocks at cows. We weren’t interested in word games. Anyway, Alice wrote a little paragraph. She tagged some folks and asked them to change the paragraph and tag some other folks. The tagged peeps gotta change the paragraph, but not so much that you can’t tell it came from the tagger’s paragraph. Does that make sense? I wonder… but then again, I haven’t had coffee yet and my eyeballs feel swollen.
Here’s the rules for this meme:
1. Change something in the paragraph you received; a minimum of 1 word, a maximum of 20 words.
2. Link to the post at Alice’s Restaurant and leave a comment so we can keep track of what happens to the paragraph. Alice will link back to you.
3. Link to the person who tagged you, preferably to where ever they posted their version of the paragraph.
4. Tag three people you think might enjoy this game. Let them know they’ve been tagged. Link to them.
5. Include these rules in your post.
Here’s my paragraph. Tempest, Shiny, and Jennifer, consider yourselves spray painted with graffiti tagged!
James and Will went up Kite Hill to find some privacy. James fell down and hit his thigh and asked Will to kiss the owie. Will was drunk but happy to oblige James’ desires without further encouragement. However, kisses weren’t enough. If he hadn’t already lost his heart to James, he would never have gotten on his knees to begin with.
Am I evil? I feel evil. I changed that paragraph but good! HEH HEH. I shoulda had Will blowing James, but I couldn’t figure out how to do that without changing more than 20 words. Hot man love. Just what we all need on a Saturday morning.
