The Eight.

iSkin: yet more evidence that my iPod is clearly a man. (This time in B&W. With Jill's WTF?!?! facial expression.)

Mystery Girl! tagged me with this meme. (Actually, she gently suggested I play along. I comply.)


1. Post the rules, then list eight things about yourself.
2. At the end of the post, tag and link to eight other people.
3. Leave a comment at those sites, letting them know they've been tagged, and asking them to come read the post so they know what to do.

Let's see, eight things about Jill: I like ice cream, men, photography, yoga... Oh. You wanted stuff you don't already know, didn't you? Hmmmm...


1. A few moments ago, I got some blueberries out of the refrigerator. On the countertop next to the refrigerator, we have some steak knives. While serving myself some blueberries, I imagined a steak knife falling off the counter and chopping one of my toes off. Not all of them. Just one. I then wondered if other people imagine things like that.

2. It was not the first time I imagined a steak knife falling from the countertop to chop one of my toes off.

3. It seems that my imagination doesn't get quite so very detailed with the choice of toes, because I cannot recall if it's always the same toe.

4. However, when I stop to freak out over the thought of possibly getting a paper cut on my eyeball, it always seems to be the right eyeball that takes the cut. I think.

5. I am concerned about you if you really want me to continue with this list after what I've just written.

6. I can't seem to get the iSkin on my iPod properly. Actually, the proper terminology seems to be "I can't seem to 'make sure the VISOR is inserted in-between the edge lips'."

iSkin: yet more evidence that my iPod is clearly a man.

7. Today I also learned that "When correctly inserted, the VISOR should be sit (sic) firmly in-between the lips of the eVo3, flush on all edges and will not slide."

8. Call me old-fashioned, but I prefer the sliding.

9. Just sayin'.

10. I would also add to the directions something about being super-careful when fitting the rubber, else you poke a hole, and end up with some little swimming visitors you weren't planning to hostess.

11. Clearly, I have not followed the "8" rule.

12. So I won't be following rules #2 or 3 either.

13. The meme dies here.

14. Die, sucka, die.

15. In the summer I usually sleep with the air conditioning on pretty high. Consequently, I use an extra blanket that I don't bother to use in the winter.

16. I cannot sleep wearing socks.

    Or the wrong one, if you ask me. It all depends on one's perspective, I guess.

    But that's neither half here nor full. Hello.

  • I blame the energy crisis on your wasteful summertime AC usage. For shame.

  • I wonder what the Freudian aspect of having a toe chopped of is. I mean, not that I ever worry about losing my toe. My toe is strong. And big. I have big manly toes. They could never get cut off.
