….Now is the time to return the favor. Actually two favors.
I’ve entered into a contest to win a Wii! An OMG Wii. An OMG never in stock in our stupid stores fucking WII people. Please go rate my video as high as you can (or as low as you want - but its a fucking good movie, so rate it properly!) I want a Wii people. Really bad. Personally, I think my video rocks!
The second favor I ask of you pertains to this :
THE Dawg is holding a vote to see which Teddy Bear Steff gets. My choice is NOT in the lead.Click on this adorable Prince Charming bear and be magically taken to casa del NYCWD where you can leave a comment - and thus a vote - on your favorite bear. There are three different bears to choose from, and to be fair I will not tell you which adorable bear I fell in love with.
A few days ago I commented on a blog. Not a shocking activity for a blogger, is it? The neat part about my comment was that it cemented my involvement in the Pay it Forward Movement. I’ve seen Pay It Forward posts around the net for a while now, and thought it was a great idea.
What happens is you write a post, much like I am doing, but with different words - and maybe some pictures. Everyone who does not have dial up loves pictures! During your post you mention Pay It forward and specify which comments will be involved.
In my case, I have chosen comments number 3, 5 and 8. Do they seem random? they aren’t. Random would be choosing negative sixteen, eighty four and nine billion and one. If you are commenter number 3, 5 or 8 I will request your snail mail address and send you something, BUT you have to do the same on your blog.
Thus, if you decide to leave a comment, and you happen to be 3, 5, or 8 and do not want to play, please make a note of it in your comment!

In other news, Hubs is picking up his PSP tonight after work, so I will be bored and on the interwebs waiting for you to entertain me. There had better be cotton candy and balloon animals!
I’m drawing a blank here, so I am stealing an Idea from my Blogging Buddy Marilyn.
I will write the first line in a story, and you guys have to keep it going in the comments. Tomorrow I will post the finished story. (If it is not finished, by damn I will make it so!
In a roundabout way, George was glad that he lost his keys. This was mostly because he knew his wife….
:grin: Don’t let me down people! :grin:
HI! My name is Freida the Traveling Gnome. I have been visiting my friends Gnomer and Bob here at the Bluepaintred household. And Trust me, should you ever get the chance to visit here, DO IT IN THE SUMMER. Sure the mosquitoes are as big as I am, but at least it is warm!
While I was here, I did a lot of really cool things with the bluepaintred Family. I loved visiting with them all, and I hate that I have to leave tomorrow - well. I won’t miss the dog. She kept sniffing at my little plastic butt. I have never been thankful I don’t squeak before, It was quite a…unique …experience!
I helped Blue make cookies! Please note the guys standing there acting like they had a part in making the cookies. Truth is, they were watching TV while Blue and I did all the work. Take note men : Just becuase you taste tested the batter does not mean you were instrumental in making the cookies!
I did not like using Blue’s mixer. I had to have a bath shortly after this photo was snapped! And molasses is NOT easy to clean off!
And why aren’t there any Gnome sized knives to be found? Have you any idea how hard it was to work this knife and not cut off a foot? Y’all should be damn proud I am going home with all four limbs!
Blue has some great kids. A bit rough at times, and always noisy, but did enjoy going with Blue Boy to his Show and Share day in kindergarten. I was a hit with all of the kids. The guys were worried I wouldn’t be able to speak enough Canadian, so they came with me! I had the most fun during arts and craft time when the class got a chance to draw a picture of Me and the Boys!
Of course Teh Baby, Stuperman, is a movie fanatic, so a lot of snowy afternoons were passed sitting on the couch watching movies.
I spent the first week of my stay relaxing with Blue and her family, but on the eighth day Blue decided to make me earn my keep. She set me to matching socks - and man! Do they have a lot of socks!
I didn’t mind the underwear folding as much, In fact I came away a bit jealous of all the sweet lacy bits Blue has. Damn this plastic butt of mine!
All in all, my trip to Canada was a wonderful experience! I’m going to miss Gnomer and Bob, But they swore they would write. (And Bob promised to sneak onto the webcam late at night *wink*) As much as I will miss everyone here, I will not miss the snow.
Fantastagirl tagged me. This is the first tag since moving to Wordpress.
1) Post a note about a blogger you would like to see something wonderful happen for. Maybe one whose posts have touched your heart in one way or another. Include details as to why you admire them and what you wish for them. Be as supporting and affirming as you can.
In a recent Post, Mr.Fab touched me with his dorky acceptance of his unfortunate affliction known as early balding, and yet.. I often feel he is crying out for us to help him overcome that same baldness. This is especially telling when he talks of his bloglover Avitable, who has a hair problem of quite another variety. I often wake, Sweating and naked in the middle of the night , convinced I have the solution only to have it slip through my fingers. All I can recall of the dream is Avitable, scissors and a purple dildo. I’m positive that If I can figure this puzzle out, I can save Fab’s Poor naked head.
What I guess I am trying to say, is that If I had it in my power to make something wonderful happen to Fab, I would get off my ass, brush the cat and mail him a toupee. Wait. That is within my powers.. oops. I’m forgetting The Lazy again..nevermind
2) Post your favorite memory around selflessness, giving, or doing for others. Something that has actually changed you.
I feel that the most selfless thing I have ever done is allow three children to exit VIA my vagina. It has most definitely changed me ~ and not for the good. For example; each one left me with ten extra pounds to carry. Mostly on my ass. And the stretch marks.are only fun so long as the markers are washable. And the fact that the Local Scout troop now uses my Vagina for meetings? The only good that comes from that is the cookie crumbs left over for Hubs to enjoy.
Kids and Vagina’s are not a good mix. Learn from my mistake people.
3) As a postscript, name one thing you will actually do for someone in your life before December 31 that is born out of joy.
This.
This I did for my father. He has to give them to the people he works with - in such a way that it does not result in a pending sexual harassment suit against him - It brought me joy and it better damn well bring him Joy when I give them to him tomorrow!
4) Tag 3 other bloggers who will play the game and find the spirit. Don’t forget to leave a comment on their blog so they continue to share the good feelings.
Uhm
You. and You. And YOU.
