15 minutes


My first ever published story is in the Sunday paper. I thought I'd kinda hate it when I saw it in print - - but I don't! Hooray!

Thanks to Boo for her ass and connectionz.

I'm blowing my $125 paycheck on booze! Bottoms up! Pun intended!

Read it here.

P.S. Boo's ass and I are trying to make the Top 10 list of most e-mailed articles on Monday. Sooooo ... if you'd be so kind to click the little "send this article" button at the bottom and forward it to a few dozen of your friends, that would be super fantastico. I really think that the Times needs to have the word "butt-love" in it's Top 10 something before turning 110 years old. Don't you agree?

Sprizee: Thanks! I didn't draw the picture - I found it somewhere. Wish I could remember where because it's AWESOME.

I have seen Butt Love.

And it's 29 sequels.

Good times, or at least slippery times.

Brooke: Tanks. : ) For your kind words I wish a backyard beer in your near future for you.

NaughtySalt: I've been tag teamed by "super fantastico" - - I think Boo also used it in a call to Nacho Libre viewing action. It's totally stuck in my head! Everything is suddenly super fantastico. Like that tootsie roll commercial from the 70s. Super Fantastico!! Thanks for the compliment also. It was ... well, you know.

I love it! Congratulations on your butt love. "That's some good butt love right there." That's not a quote from anything, but I think it SHOULD be.

good article! i for one have always been appreciative of my ample buttocks. more butt love - it's a good thing! ;-)

Unknown said...

Lisa: Oh! You are SO RIGHT. That should be a memorable movie quote. Something is wrong with this world that it isn't.

NYA: I'm glad you like your rear end. That's a total gift. I have nothing much to write home about it but it's the least of my worries, really. I obsess over other body parts instead. Don't get my started about my upper arms.

J: May I recommend the "Return To Butt Love Mountain" series? I think there are about 35 of those.

Congrats on having your story published! How cool is that??

And it's a good one, too!

We used to chuckle at my youngest daughter. When she was a wee babe she had no butt. Literally. As it grew in, her crack was crooked. Right at the top it has a curvy little zig and zag. We thought it was adorable. Someday, she'll be looking at her butt going, "UGH, I hate that stupid crooked crack!" I'm saving this article so I'll be ready!! Thanks!

Tammy: Thank you for the compliment! I love the idea that this story will be read in the future! That's super cool.

what of this irrelevant paradise,
of ferrellgas and hopped fences,
cider bottles of flat beer stolen
under quiet neon signs

That strobe I soldered, which
fell from the ceiling and shocked you
leaving the scar across your chest,
where are these pieces now,

when urinating off the overpass,
pissing drunk, down on semis,
spraypaint the tv instead of
watch it. we never backed off

not even with ivan angrily sleeping
under a bridge. we were the ideals
in an ideal world we won't return to.
i don't know why dirt becomes just dirt.

we can't blame everything on youth, when
friendship is responsible, and if
youth breeds friendship with little else,
time's our fair loss, that

age in evolving summers, which can be
fireproofed against self-defeat,
may quietly encroach, dampening a
united purpose and leave

ferrellgas tanks Jonesing nameless, for
whatever brand they were, we'd know now:
Eastwood is anonymous, with the
hot smell of the pine tree summer

lovely beyond nostalgia. My
Greatest consolation is how the
rest of the world never lived it:
The guilty grin of a secret to share.
