I'm on your side Cunning--long-winded storytellers make me nuts.

Masky, this was My Melody introducing herself the other day

Because I said she was shy lol

TOO SHY, SHY....HUSH

D, You know I'm kaja googoo for you but I'm not too shy. In fact, I love attention just as much as any VIRGORIAN does. The considerate, empathetic side of me doesn't want to take any attention away from the soul of this blog. Only on very few occasions, this one being one of them, I have invaded your blog comments. Although, I have been compelled to contact the all-sensual and poise Krissles, Timmy, the smooth blogger, Marzieh, my favorite beat poet and Robdon67, a prolific writer.

Jojo, I'll reveal to you a little about me: I simply adore a British accent! I love the color purple. I enjoy music, dancing, parties, watching the DOLPHINS win, quiet time, reading, a little chessing and a little meditating, long bubble baths and merlot wine. I'm spiritual, sensitive, caring, nurturing, feeling-oriented, touchy-feely, family-loving, protective, supportive, musically obsessed, charitable, productive, and very feminine, BUT I am also moody, a worrier. I have guilty feet with rhythm, self-critical, manipulative, obsessive-compulsive, possessive, touchy-feisty, indirect, fussy and EXPLOSIVE, and I tend to hold onto the past, having a hard time letting go. And one day out of the month, I go out of control, and I pick on a sacrificial lamb to release my excess estrogen, then I go confess. Oh, and my favorite, favorite, FAVORITE soul is the CUNNING!!!! I'm overblown by his wits and the way he reacts to sunsets ;) There's no one on earth that makes me feel as special.

D, wouldn't you say that's me? Ooops, I think I might have said too much. MUAH! 143

A pleasure to meet you, Jojo. Melody

I'm sure you know, you just need to learn to nod your head and pretend you're listening :-)

Cunning,
Mr. Spitfire is the same way. It drives me crazy! And, it's a catch 22 for me cause he HATES being interrupted when speaking.

you think Aerosmith's "Take Me to the Other Side" is about this overachieving chicken?

I was just about to delete it, but I was afraid it would somehow throw all these comments away (I was chicken).

I was just going to ask if the chicken ever crossed the road!

The chicken did it somehow! :)

Hey, how come this post suddenly has a duplicate?

that's weird.  I didn't do that

the poor chicken never got to cross the road :-(

instead he ended up climbing the poet tree

LOL come on, the Jayhawks?

I've had a couple bad experiences with publishing companies etc. poetry.com being one of those bad experiences.  But thank you for the complement.

Cunning,
Are you trying to tell us that the chicken crossed the road to get to the poultry poetry contest?

Have you ever submitted any of your stuff

for publication or contests? If not, you really should

ha! I could win $500 for an essay on why I love my hometown. too bad I'm not a good liar.

I don't even know what poetry is
but some people here write stuff in the poetry section and it works for me.  Masky, for instance - not just saying that.  Some people write what sounds like poetic verse to me and they didn't even intend for it to be poetry.

posted by CunningLinguist on October 6, 2005 at 2:20 PM | link to this | reply

Yeah, I've actually heard about them
I can't write poetry now to save my life anyway so that shouldn't be a problem.

Jojo
you're welcome.  I hope you find something worthwhile.  Never - repeat - NEVER go to poetry.com; the place is a fraud!  Everybody who enters any contest is sent snail mail that tells them they are winners of something and need to do yada yada and they'll be entered to win an even more prestigious prize.  Bullshit

You're fast!

Ok, I'll check it out.thanks!

firstwriter.com I can't vouch for this place's credibility, but this is one I found.

Hey, don't let me spoil the good time Friday.  I'm anything but a wet blanket.

Hello (echo echo) is there anybody in there?  Just nod if you can hear me.  Is there anyone at all?  :-)

Sorry for being MIA.  Things got messed up today - the best laid plans of mice and Dan... I always pick the worst days to be away.  How are you doing?  (This message will be waiting when you show up.)

Where is cunning?

I'm getting ready to leave work.  Had a mess on my hands today with the payroll system.  That's why I was popping in and out of here, like a bad porno.  If you talk to cunning, tell him I missed him.  I'll be on his blog tomorrow with the Cult's Mission statement that I came up with this weekend.  Gotta run.  Love ya!

Hey, I wonder if Cosy got on the plane yet.  Can't wait to hear from her on Monday.

Lol!
She does read blogit though I found out. I don't know if you saw that or not. I don't think she posts though.

Okay, that makes sense...I'm scrolling down looking to see if a
blogger named Melody.  Then I thought Melody was Military.  Sorry...

She sometimes gets parts in his writings too!

Uhhhh...who's Melody? I'm cornfused.
I swear I'm having a "jojo blonde moment" today.    Talk to me in kids turns...talk really slow.

Cool Masky

We still don't know Melody's feelings on it though. We need no permission from anyone on my side. That's good at least.

JOJO/Cunning...I asked my husband how he felt about our "tricycle"...he's
totally game he just said to tell you that should we make a movie or enter the magazines he wants a cut of the moolah!

Hey speaking of Melody

Lol! yeah Masky's hubby probably wouldn't go for it either. That's ok, I'm not really into women anyway.

Yeah, not to mention Masky's husband lol.  As great as the two of you are, Melody has my heart under lock and key for eternity.  But alas, take comfort in knowing that it took the greatest woman God ever blessed the earth with to knock you two out of the running ;-)

I hope Melody is ok with this.

Things are better than I thought.  Don't be afraid now, but, you and I are an item.  More accurately, you, Masky, and I are... items.  Lol
