Happy Saturday




Happy Saturday Peeps!

I was writing up my post, and linking to Ken P who was nice enough to provide me with software to make the badge.  Of course I wanted him to just do it.  And get this, he said no to me.  lol What he actually said was something like "My name's not Waffles and I'll teach to fish instead of giving you dinner".  Or something like that. But Ken, I like dinner! lol However, I am checking it out. We'll see what I come up with. It might even be easy enough for me to actually do myself.  Only problem is it's like shopping I want to try ALL the options. Stay Tuned.

In the mean time, I've never seen Ken's blog before...how has he evaded me for this long?  Of course I like it because the first post mentions................ME.  Toldya I liked this guy!  And he did the badge thingy for me after all.  It is at the top of this post.  I <3 Ken.  Waffles, fuck off.

The badge on the right is the final product of Gary's.  Doesn't it rock?  It even has the time posted! He only had to make one or two (or 22) versions.  Thank you Gary!

Full Tilt has been very profitable this weekend.  Started slow and then BOOM. Not squandering half my bankroll in a $216 tourney this weekend, that's for sure.  Only thing is I've only been playing Super Turbos.  Alot of them.  And somehow I got a Super Turbo free roll.  It's a 100K game - Sunday night.  I don't even know what I did to qualify.

Notes about Comments:

1.)  I am so frigging cool I have a comment from Scotland! It's LittleAcornMan.  Cute name. huh?
2.)  You MUST read Neophyte's commnt.  HIGH-larious.

In other news today is a spa day for me.  Manicure, pedicure and wax.  Eyebrow wax.  Fucking hurt like a bastard.  You guys have it sooooo easy.

Which reminds me of  a story.

I've always had eyebrows that need grooming. lol Perhaps it's cuz I'm Italian.  Yet my mother and my sister have light practically non existent hair, while my hair is dark and thick.  Cuz of this I always have to wax my eyebrows or I'd be sporting a unibrow....go ahead, laugh....I'll wait.  Keep in mind eyebrow waxing (as well as any other type of waxing) hurts like a mother.

One year for my birthday Cricket gets me a spa day.  A facial, a massage and yes, cuz my brows are always out of control, an eyebrow waxing.  It was a nice fancy place.

I get the massage and facial.  I'm all relaxed and happy....only thing left is the waxing. (which I dread)  As the girl goes to do it, she spills hot (very warm really) wax ON MY FACE.

A good amount of wax is now on the side of my face/cheek.  She apologizes and tells me she'll take care of it.  No biggie I think.  In my relaxed state I wonder how she'll clean up spilled wax.  There must be a procedure for when this happens but I can't noodle out what it would be.

Know why?

Cuz there is none.

She covers the huge wax spill with cloth and practically rips my fucking cheek off.  She took care of it alright.  Fuck.  Then she waxes my eyebrows.  I'm not a happy camper and she surely knows this.  She tells me she doesn't know how else to get it off.  I still think there must've been other ways than that. 

Play smart.

The problem is that I don't have even the most rudimentary graphics software program. You get anything that supports layering and it should be easy enough. I'm trying to find something free - anyone got any ideas?

Your waxing situation made me laugh. Yeah -- being a guy is great. Nothing like being able to look like crap and still have it be okay for 90% of social situations.

Wow! your new favorite? Me? That made me loosen the ol' truss!

Try GIMP. It is freeware and powerful.

This feature should do what you want:

And you can downloaded at: gimp.org

Ken,

In order for you to be the fave, you have to do it for me!! It's not that I'm lazy, it's just that my mad skillz lay elsewhere.

@Jo, Acorn's point may have been that that info should be on the badge. Your thoughts?
June 11, 2010 at 11:12 PM
Josie said…
Yes, Gary that's his point - it's a good one, eh? I just didnt wanna bother u again. But if could add the time that'd be great.

Ummm I have a Scottish reader! Cheerio! Bangers & Mash. Spotted Dick and all that.

Oh you women. Your life is so full of pain in the pursuit of beauty. I keep hearing how if men had to do what you did, we'd die. Don't believe it guys! My wife kept pulling that crap until I made her put her money where her mouth was. I had her wax a section of my leg. Now keep in mind, this isn't some lady leg. I have HAIRY legs. Think sasquatch or yeti and you're close. So she puts the wax on me. Hot but nice, almost comforting. Then she puts the cloth on and lets the wax cool and harden. She gets ready to pull it off and licks her lips in greedy anticipation of seeing me writhing on the floor in pain. Then she yanks it off. I just looked at her and asked her "When is the pain supposed to start?" Man was she maaaad. And I had this nice patch of beautifully smooth hair free skin for awhile.

More haggis and neeps and Mince and tatties than bangers n mash or spotted dick, but you're not far off :-)

The updated banner ( with start time!) looks great now. It would be 2am UK time so it's probably not a goer unless I'm on annual leave.I have managed to play in a few Mookies over the years so maybe one day...!

'Fraid the Brit Blogger is only once a week, but any time you guys can make it,you're all more than welcome.We need all the dead money we can get ;-)

LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Neo Baby, that was hilarious, and I like your wife!!! She should read my blog too. And you KNOW it hurt...you just didn't react.

And lemme tell you, the face is more sensitive than an old man's leg. lol So it's NO comparison. Face is much more sensitive and painful.
However, my eyebrows look AWESOME. as do my bubblegum pink fingers and toes.

Acorn,

I will TOTALLY play that "Britain's Got Talent" tourney on Sunday. But not THIS Sunday. When you least expect it.

And then i'll write about how I kicked your scottish bum. LOL

Josie, it's your eyebrows. They're on your forehead. Trust me that's not that painful. Soccer players get hit by balls in the forehead all the time. Boxers get punched there ALL THE TIME. I don't see them cringing in pain everytime they get hit. Now mustache or beard, that can be painful. I pull them out all the time. Nice try. I'm told giving birth hurts like hell but I wonder how much of that you ladies make up as well.

Fuck Waffles!! I will give you a facial if you talk to me that way again! :P

Neo, you are SOOOOO wrong, but funny as hell.

Waffles, you better get that facial ready! :P

Dogs Are Vermin

I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. I don't like dogs. Sugar Bear does. I especially don't like small dogs. I'm considering getting a dog, a chihuaha.  I must be out of my fucking mind.  The dog needs a home and it's free (I'm fucking cheap).  Sugar Bear doesn't know of this thank goodness. OMFG I should just say NO like Nancy Reagan, or as Waffles said, Barbara Bush.  :P Oh and there are a couple of new blogs on the blog roll over yonder. --->  Check out the newbies, Rob and Cranky.  Good shiat. Josie PS I should really just say no instead of ruining my life, right? PPS As luck would have it Sugar Bear has always wanted a chihuahua specifically.  :(  and a duck.

I'm busier than a cat covering up shit on a concrete floor so you'll have to forgive me for not posting today. What, you thought this was a post?  Um, no it isn't. But, if you're desperate to read something about Very Josie, and if you like crafty humor, you could go ---> HERE as this post tickles my funny bone.  Go on now, go THERE and enjoy some fine writing for a change, and tell him Very Josie sent you. Snaps for Josie!  (you have to go HERE to appreciate this line and then come back here to leave me a comment.  Just because I'm too busy to post doesn't mean I don't like getting comments.  Now scoot!)

Upset

I got a lot of much needed sleep last night and woke up with intentions of writing a very funny story but plans have changed my friends. I just read Tony's Latest Post and I'm too worried or upset to write about anything so frivolous.  I think many of his readers just see him as an interesting story, and not a person.  I see the person, who I was trying so very hard to steer away from a train wreck, but it didn't work.  In fact, the part that scares me the most is maybe I, with my good intentions, pushed him further off the cliff.  Maybe I put too much pressure on him to avoid the machines - too much pressure about something he is unable to control.  I need to shut the fuck up and stop giving out unsolicited advice, which most likely will not happen.  I cannot express how badly I feel about this. I was only trying to help because sometimes when you're in the eye of the hurricane you don't have the entire picture, at least not a...
