Oh, was that seven? Oops. Well, really, I could go on and on. I think I love the above blogs so much because I feel close to all the ladies who write them. I can’t explain it. I also really like thisiswhyyourefat and blackandwtf, too. Oh, gosh. And I hate lists like this because I don’t want to offend. Basically, if I follow you, you’re tops to me; I’m sort of picky.


What is your favorite book and why? By the way, you don’t have to say the Bible. God won’t be offended.

I’m down with G-O-D (yeah, you know me) and all, but I wouldn’t have gone the Bible route for favorite books. Actually, I’m sort of wishy-washy. Of course, The Catcher in the Rye is on the list. That was the first or second novel I read all the way through in one sitting, I think (the other being Invisible Monsters by Chuck Palahniuk…not a favorite). But then, since I was little, I always really loved Ballet Shoes by Noel Streatfeild. But now, I got really touched by Love That Dog by Sharon Creech, which is a story told only in the poems a kid named Jack wrote in class. It follows his interest in poetry from dislike to passion. Plus, it highlights his relationship with his deceased pet. It’s really great, and it’s a quick read so you don’t have to go to sleep wondering what happens next. Also, I was completely pleased with the Harry Potter series. Meh. There you go, for now.


What your favorite article of clothing/ accessory? Why?

Easy! My vintage brown leather riding boots. I was in New Orleans three years ago (probably to the day), and I stopped dead in my tracks in front of the Urban Outfitters store. In the window, under some outfit I never even noticed, were some worn brown boots. I went in immediately and asked about them. The girl working there told me that they were from the 1980s and were sent to the store for display only. Of course, I offered to buy them. She was like, “They’re really small, but if they fit, we can give them to you for $78.” I squished my size six foot in them; they’re probably five-and-a-halfs. I had them ring me up. Now, I have had the flat, wooden heels redone twice and the leather retreated three times. I will nurse these babies to health for as long as I can; they look cute with everything, and I always wanted vintage riding boots.


What is your favorite insult (word, phrase, sentence)? by hipincognito

You know, I don’t know if I’d call it my favorite, but the one I use in retort most frequently is “your butt.”

“You look like crap today.”
“Your butt.”

I mean, does that even make sense? Nope. However, it’s been engrained in me since second grade…so it has been grandfathered in as my best cut-down.



Ask me something ridiculous and anonymous.
