READY?

So the Blonde got bored with her own blog. Sad, isn’t

it? I think it had everything to do with the LOOK of

the thing. Zzzzzzzzz! So I’m going to try some new

stuff. See what I like. See what you like. I’m open to

suggestions (most of them) and I hope you enjoy the

end result. Here’s my first format idea. 

WoRD of the week will be over there for now.

Rant Face is self-explanatory. That’s where I turn

into a harpy and winge about all the unfairness,

weirdness, ugliness and stupid(ness) on our planet.

Or about whatever I feel like complaining about. It is

my blog.

Velvet Grammar will be each week’s grammar lesson.

Are you excited?The rest? Gee! I just don’t know yet.

WoRD oF tHe WeeK!

EXCORIATE – criticize or

berate severely. 

John was excoriated for the

constant mistakes he made on

the paint job.

Here’s a new one

RRRAAANNNTTT FFFAAACCCEEE 

SOAPSUDZ – A personal rant. Sorry

There are some people I just don’t like. I hate to admit that, but as much as I try some

people FORCE to me feel like punching them in the pancreas is the most joyous thing I

could do.Anyway, there’s a “friend” of the family that I wish would be unfriended. She’s a

crusty b*tch to start so when she decided the kitchen was too messy for her and she just

had to clean it I was annoyed. It’s not your house and you only want to clean up so you

can get a favor later. COW! So she asks where the dish soap is. It’s under the sink, bozo .

She proceeds to pour half the bottle into the water. I say “Don’t you think that’s too

much?” She says “I was doing dishes before you were born.” You were also an idiot

before I was born, too.  I say nothing, but I was certain to make sure she saw my nostrils

flare. She washes about 4 glasses and 3 plates. I tell her again that she’s used too much

soap and everything is going to taste, well, like soap. DUH! Did she listen? The dishes are

drying when a couple of the young ones come in for a drink. Of course they grab dishes

they see. Immediately upon drinking they both start making faces and eww sounds. This

idiot has the nerve to say “What’s wrong?”

SERIOUSLY? Their drinks taste like soap, you twat You know what tastes good with soap?

NOTHING! NOTHING AT ALL! I want to pour the rest down your ugly face. UGH!

And those dishes went into the dishwasher without a tab because there was plenty of

soap on those 7 dishes to clean a whole dishwasher full.

When I dislike you so much that I get weird about dishes, it’s a

problem and you end up in my blog. And here’s a parting

TWAT for you to swallow with the extra dish soap.

I really like that little bomb so I hope it doesn’t belong to anyone.

All of the sudden is not correct.

It’s all of a sudden. Remember

“Twas The Night BeforeChristmas?” It doesn’t say

“when all of the sudden.” I

don’t know where that the

came from, but it has to go.

Make it so!

VELVET GRAMMAR

Why this name? Listen to me. If you get your grammar down,you’ll sound as smooth as velvet pants on Billy Dee William’s

butt! Well he’s Lando to me, but whatever makes you happy. 

IRREGARDLESS :

Still NOT a word.

Won’t be a word tomorrow.Won’t be word in 30 years.

At least I hope not. I would

have to shoot people at

Webster.

This one shocked me. When discussing the LAX shooter, this was in

the headline...OF A NEWSPAPER?!

“His friends described him as a loaner.” 

WHAT?!

I KNOW those jerks have spell checks and proof readers. How did

this get by? LAZY!

Did he loan out money? His clothes? Advice? Evidently this paper

loaned out a slice of credibility. UGH!

I got the following question from Carolyn who wrote

“I love my sister, but my little niece is turning two my sister has created a registry for

the birthday party. The items on the registry are VERY expensive and not ageappropriate. She’s even planning on renting a facilty for this party. I don’t want to tell

h er how to raise her kid, but my niece is already a huge brat and I don’t want to

contribute to this. I have no idea what to do. We indulged it for the first birthday

because we thought first baby, first birthday, but this goes too far. There’s some $300  

interactive thing on there. For a two-  year old? Any ideas?”  

Oh wow! I agree with you Carolyn. Throwing a lavish party for a toddler is insane to meIt’s not for the child in any sense. This is for the parent(s) to show off to other parents.

It’s a giant game of one-upmanship. This mentality is alarming and I don’t understand it

Have you talked to her? Does she feel pressured to match something another parent has

done? The only suggestion I would offer is that you attend the party and buy your niece

something reasonable and age appropriate. You said we some I’m guessing the rest of

the family feels the way you do? If so, have everyone do the same. It will let your sister

know that you don’t approve of her plans, but still allows you to enjoy the day with your

niece. If the gifts on the registry are so expensive, other folks might be planning the

same anyway. Best of luck to you.

My favorite comment of the week… I was sitting in Physics recitation messaging with my PIP (Partner in Physics), Jane. I

typed something kinda rude followed by “I’m going to hell.” She said “Yes you are…In

gasoline panties!” I almost laughed out loud in the middle of class. I needed that one,

though. Gasoline panties.  That’s going to burn! 

Questions, Comments and Nonsense

NONSENSEWhy do I keep seeing “Our favorite celeb moments,” as a headline? How about replacing

celeb with mom, dad, teacher, friend, doctor, nurse, soldier, hero, officer, fireman,

volunteer, or anything else? Why do we spend so much time praising people who are just

here to entertain us? I want to be entertained just as much as the next guy, but my

inspiration comes from a place close to my home and my heart. If your only role models

are complete strangers you open yourself up for disappointment. Who you see on TV

doesn’t translate to real life. And sure those people do great things sometimes, but it

doesn’t make them any greater than the guy next door who does something great.

Goodbye, So Long, Farewell! That’s the end of the blog.

What do you think of the new format? Too big? Still

boring? Too much? Too little? Anything you want to seebut didn’t? Let me know. Well, unless it’s ridiculous.

Next week might be different again. You never know

with a Blonde. Have a great week, all. I’m not sure what

I’m about to bake, but I know it’s going to be something

delicious. Love and Hugs, YO!
