Free can of pork and beans with purchase of home

Kirsten's blog, Belly Shirts, just informed me of a fantastic deal for a free can of pork and beans with the purchase of a home from Clayton Homes of Colombia, Tennessee.

This offer was so ridiculous I thought it had to be a joke. I couldn't find evidence of the promotion after a quick look around the Clayton Homes Website, so I decided to give them a call.

I have been meaning to give google voice's call record feature a try. Google currently lets you record incoming calls by hitting the number 4, but you can not record outgoing calls. Luckily I found a convenient contact form on their website , and I was soon waiting for my call from Clayton Homes. Read more »

The Grand Reopening has Begun!

Welcome to day one of my Blog's Grand Reopening! Check back often this week because I will be updating the blog at least once a day. I also plan to do a blog t.v. show sometime this week.

I found a collection of documents from when I was 7. These documents were all written about me by 7 year olds. Some of the pictures are amusing and beautiful. Think of the words as rather redundant little poems. I hope you enjoy them. This is the first of a couple groups that I will post this week. On some of them I will try to translate from 7 year old for you. Here we go!


This first one was written by me

Me

I like tv.
I have a baby brother.
My favorite color is white (I had a man crush on the white power ranger).
I like the Lion King.
I like David M.


I'm not going to even try with this one. Leave a comment if you can decode this nonsense.


You can read this one for the most part.

I dig my shirt in this one.

the ganggle conspiracy

Today I saw some ducks. I was sitting next to a stream waiting for the sun to set when a ganggle of ducks came walking/swimming up the stream.

The word ganggle has three g's and is the combination of a gang and a gaggle. These ducks simultaneously exhibited the ferocity of a gang and the whimsy of a gaggle of geese.

The word gang is fierce. It begins and ends with the letter g. It is to the point and efficient.

The word gaggle is whimsical. It has 3 g's. It is a combination of the words gag and giggle. Read more »

Recently I have gotten interested in minimalism. Have you ever had a certain way of thinking, but it was difficult for you to sum up your thoughts into a tidy package. This is how I felt until I found the minimalism movement.

When I say minimalism, I am not necessarily talking about the style of art that Donald Judd is known for I am talking about minimalism as a lifestyle.

I have never been very organized. This could be alleviated if I had less stuff. I have decided to take the 100 things challenge. I will document my progress here.

I will also be rolling out a simpler theme on my blog soon. Read more »

So I have been blog challenged.

When I say blog challenged, I am not referring to the trouble that I have been having putting out posts consistently.

In a recent blog post, Kirsten (who writes the hilarious blog Bellyshirts), wrote about a guy who is putting up ads for romantic roommate relationship.

Naturally, I accepted the challenge, and here is a little taste of my communication with this mysterious craigslist poster.His name is William. He lives in L.A. He is throwing in a Starbucks allowance. He has a boat in Florida.

I have assumed the role of Jessica.

Here are the inagural texts.William

Me: hey there
William: Hey there back. U like my ad on craigs?
Me: Yea, I dig the alliteration: romantic roommate relationship.
William: Well, well, well, what do we have here? A beauty with brains? Tell me about urself, what u do or aspire to do, etc...
Me: so, are you who the ad is for, or is that your boss?
William: My asst put it up. Ur talking to her boss, William. With whom do I have the pleasure of texting?
Me: My name is Jessica, and public relations is my thing.
William: That's refeshing, as most of the girls responding to my ad are Hollywood hopefuls, models, the usual suspects. So, what do we look like? Read more »
