6 REASONS WHY, OR, HOW NOT TO HAVE APOCALYPTO ON YOUR HEAD.

wedge4.gif
A doctor tagged me…a doctor! (I don’t know why I’m always so surprised that smart people are even speaking to me…without an appointment!)

1. Link to the person who tagged you.
2. Post the rules on your blog.
3. Write six random things about yourself.
4. Tag six people at the end of your post and link to them.
5. Let each person know they’ve been tagged and leave a comment on their blog.
6. Let the tagger know when your entry is up.

(I may or may not actually follow the rules, you know.)

1. I am not grossed out by dead people. Just feet. And, yeah, dead feet are extra gross…but not animal feet. OK, maybe chicken feet, especially dim sum chicken feet (crunchy!) Er, I’m sure they’re very delicious, just…no.

2. I used to have an eating disorder, but now I’m just a food obsessive.

3. I can no longer really stay awake through a whole movie. It’s embarrassing.

4. Have been unemployed, save for a week or so temping, for almost a year. Also embarrassing. So is the fact that I can’t really spell “embarrassing” as it always looks wrong. Maybe this is why I went back to school.

5. I know a famous groupie, but am not one. If I could have been one, I cannot say for which groups as my musical taste is also embarrassing (late 80’s - bad hair, which I still secretly think looks good on men).

6. I have not had a haircut in almost as long as I’ve been unemployed, which may have something to do with my being unemployed. So today I was looking into a new stylist, as the only person who could ever really cut my hair no longer cuts hair. Unfortunately, she had posted a picture on her salon’s website. She has a bowl cut, people. A BOWL CUT. (She also claims that she recently saw APOCALYPTO, which made her fascinated with “Mayan” hair cuts - wha?! I didn’t know Mayans HAD haircuts.) I cannot possibly get a haircut from this person…I know stylists are eccentric, but my mom forcibly bowl-cutted me back in the late 70’s/early 80’s and I’m still getting over it (and the forcible poodle-perm/mullet combo). I refuse to believe that the stylist’s freaky ‘do will not somehow end up on your head. You know they want to.

Damn you, Dorothy Hamill…! I’m going back to my regular girl, with the variations on pink and black skunky extensions, as this seems a safer bet.

I tag uh…anyone who wants to be tagged (because I am a wuss).

AND NO SNOW, EITHER.

Published by thepissedkitty under P.O.S. car Edit This

rusty_car.jpgSo it turns out my favorite “Christmas carol” (yes, I do have those, even though I am a Stealth Jew) contains alarmingly accurate descriptions of cars I used to drive*:

C’mon, cmon!
C’mon, you can do it!
(car starts)
All right!
Dashing through the snow
in my Rusty Chevrolet
Down the road I go
Sliding all the way

I need new piston rings
I need some new snow tires
My car is held together
By a piece of chicken wire

CHORUS
OH! RUST AND SMOKE, THE HEATER’S BROKE
THE DOOR JUST BLEW AWAY
I LIGHT A MATCH TO SEE THE DASH
AND THEN I START TO PRAY

THE FRAME IS BENT, THE MUFFLER WENT
THE RADIO, IT’S OK-!
OH, WHAT FUN IT IS TO DRIVE
THIS RUSTY CHEVROLET!

I went to the IGA
To get some Christmas cheer
I just passed up my left front tire
And it’s getting hard to steer

Speeding down the highway
Right past a county cop
I have to drag my swampers
Just to get the car to stop

(CHORUS!)
(INSTRUMENTAL!!)

Bouncing through the snowdrifts
In a big blue cloud of smoke
People laugh as I drive by
And I wonder what’s the joke

Got to get to Wal-Mart
To pick up the lay-away
‘Cause Santa Claus is coming soon
In his big old rusty sleigh
(CHORUS!!!)

-Rusty Chevrolet by Da Yoopers

*except the radio didn’t usually work, either; I’d NEVER go to Wal-Mart, and I don’t know what the IGA is…
