Important stuff, of course...

Sometimes, when I scour the interwebs for fantastic stuff, it works.  This is one of those times.

"IT'S DECORATIVE GOURD SEASON, MOTHERFUCKERS." By Colin Nissan

I love this blog, and on this blog I found the following article, named above. Here is an excerpt:

"I don't know about you, but I can't wait to get my hands on some fucking gourds and arrange them in a horn-shaped basket on my dining room table. That shit is going to look so seasonal. I'm about to head up to the attic right now to find that wicker fucker, dust it off, and jam it with an insanely ornate assortment of shellacked vegetables. When my guests come over it's gonna be like, BLAMMO! Check out my shellacked decorative vegetables, assholes. Guess what season it is—fucking fall. There's a nip in the air and my house is full of mutant fucking squash."

The entire article is located here.

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

I just got this book-on-cd for a friend. I have throughly enjoyed every bit of this book. It is so cute, and so funny. Not to mention, witty! I recommend peeps check it out!

"Simple. I got very bored and depressed, so I went and plugged myself in to its external computer feed. I talked to the computer at great length and explained my view of the Universe to it," said Marvin.
"And what happened?" pressed Ford.
"It committed suicide," said Marvin and stalked off back to the Heart of Gold.

I'll sleep in that bed!

Please! Look at that bed! Look where it is! Climbing that ladder,...sliding into those sheets! Oy! I am not quite certain how to highlight links to other blogs, but here is where I found this image - http://verhext.tumblr.com/

The day before I start my "Big Girl" job, I cook.

Dish number 1. - Not a dish. Fucking whipped-cream-in-a-can. With peppermint flavor. So good.

Dish number 2. - Spicy Asian Slaw. "Asian". Clearly. Spicy. Yes. Here is the recipe. It's super easy to make. http://lbrookscooks.com/2010/06/17/spicy-asian-slaw/

Dish number 3. - Beef and Butternut Squash Stew. From http://erincooks.com/beef-and-butternut-squash-stew/

Her blog is way better than mine. As you can tell from time I snapped the the photo, it's not cooked fully. I am so excited to eat it. Not as excited to put it in a BPA free thermos container and go to work. I should have been a house wife (minus the popping out the puppies,...).

(Gated) lesbian Communities...

These women made their way to St. Augustine, Florida at the peak of the feminist movement. They bought some land, and made their homes, and put up their gates. There were (and are) of course, residency requirements - be a woman and be a lesbian. 

One resident, Winnie Adams (now 66) is a self-described "radical feminist separatist lesbian". She left her home in 1999 to move to this community. She had at one point been marries and had two daughters. Neither of her daughters are lesbians and are therefore disallowed from living with her. But, oh my gawdess, who would want to?

Nothing against ole Winnie, but a gated lesbitronic community? Scary movie. I don't like the idea of people isolating themselves into gated communities in the first place (think security guards, giant SUV's, pristine and empty sidewalks, and WASP's). And I certainly don't like groups of lesbians. In the woods. Alone. And wearing flannel. And feminizing. I feel like the world is so messed up and peeps need to get together and hash their shit out. The lezzers shouldn't hide in the woods--- just like the rich and white should shield themselves in their cul-de-sac. Head in the sand mentality, perhaps,...irresponsible certainly.

 But, read for yourself. (Be sure to check out the audio/photo montage, too). This community called "Alpine" is alive and well. But, I won't be moving in anytime soon
