So... today I had to give this guy credit. He came up with the best pick-up line I've ever heard in a while.
I was unassummingly pumping gas at the gas station and staring into the distance of the Wal-Mart parking lot when an SUV pulled up and blocked my view.
The window was rolled down and a guy stuck his head out the window to inquire about my name.
Knowing there was no way I'd give him my real name I gave him my assumed name. When spoken the name sounds like a letter and immediately guys think I'm blowing him off. So of course, he asked me what that stood for.
Because for some inherent reason I haven't quite figured out yet, I never really want guys to think I'm a total jerk even when I have every intention of blowing them off, I responded, it stands for nothing and spelled out the name letter by letter.
Brace yourself b/c I didn't see this one coming. He and his friend (aka the driver) nodded their head as he stated what a pretty name it was. Then he said, well, "Can I get your number so we can be friends to the E-N-D?"
I laughed, shook my head and told him I was taken but I have to be honest. If I weren't single, if he were driving AND if he didn't have a gold tooth (what is it about me and guys with gold teeth??) I may have relented and gave him my number. Scratch that, I would have given him part of my real number. I mean isn't it a shame how "one" can sometime sound like "nine"...Someone should look into that.

For The Love of Ray J
What can I say about this show? This week I watched it and I spent half of my time amused and half of it appalled.
Ray J is obviously a wordsmith, putting together sentences that will go down in the VH1 hall of fame such as - "I don't like to be mind-boggled."
Seriously. He said it. I wish someone will tell him that's not the correct use of the word.
I was proud to see some girls got kicked off because they really wanted to advance their careers and they didn't really want/love Ray J. For some reason, that made the world a much better place for me.
Maybe one of my readers can enlighten me. Is there something I'm missing that makes women go gaga over him? Was it the final season on One on One? Or his portrayal of Dorian on Moesha?
Somebody. Anybody. Let me know.
(Silence).
Ok. Your silence speaks volumes. And what I read from it is that this is a show put here on earth mainly for my entertainment and to improve my self-esteem because there is no way I would get on television to act that way. Unless it was for Michael Ealy. I need not even defend myself for that one.

CREEPY!
Ok, so here's a tip to all my male readers. When you meet a woman and you're trying to gauze her age, if you are over the age of 24, DO NOT ask if she's just graduated from high school.
I know you think it's a compliment, but it's not. It makes you look creepy a few minutes later when she reveals her age and you state your actual age.
Sorry, I know we've made the rule where you can't ask our age--if you encounter me, I promise I'll tell you because you have a 50/50 chance I'm interested or not but a 100% chance I'll tell you if I'm not.
I promise.
I've had this happen to me at least twice, one more recently and I have to tell you, the whole encounter made me wonder if my free water* had anything like roofies in it and if at the end of the day, that guy would think that ordeal went well.
It didn't, on both accounts.
*Nothing is ever free in life. Remember this. That "free" water cost me 1.5 hours of talking to a guy I was in no way interested in but felt compelled to be nice to after he brought me some water!

Best Episode of Cheaters ever!!!!
Ok, before I run out of exclamation marks, let me just get on with the story.
My name is ___ and I am addicted to Cheaters. Not really addicted but if I happen to be up and I know it's on, I'll watch it over the news, or whatever else is on-today it happens to be the Olympics.
So tonight, I was thinking about how great Joey Greco is. Sure, he's sarcastic during the confrontations, but he sometimes has a genuiness to him that makes you think he really cares about the people being cheated on.
So tonight, the first woman found her husband cheating and she took a hammer and broke a brand new 300 dollar watch, poured mustard all over him, threw his clothes out on the lawn and his TV. BTW it was Valentine's Day.
But that was nothing. This second woman confronted her cheating boyfriend in a parked car eating a burger. She asked where they went to eat as she grabbed his burger and threw it on the ground. Seconds later after the cheating girl admitted she was sending pictures of the boyfriend in her bed, the girlfriend says "what's this?" and reaches inside the car through the driver's window which was let down completely.
She does it so quickly and as she slides through the door she begins to punch the other woman. Her smoothness alone makes that the best episode ever. AND she later rips the shirt off the boyfriend because she bought it for him.
Part of me is afraid that watching this show will have a "reap what you sow" outcome because I take pleasure in it, but honestly, it's just the people who get even with those who have cheated that make me happy. :-)
