Hubby calls Gerard Butler my boyfriend. And I’m not complaining. I am just wondering how many fantasy boyfriends can a girl have before she crosses the line in the slutdom? Oh I know – Gerry and I have an open relationship. (Does that take the slutdom down a notch?)
I ask because I have a new Beau. He has been around for a while and I have enjoyed his work and he has certainly caught my eye — but not like now. I speak of Timothy Olyphant.
He has been in several favorites but those characters didn’t make me stand up and notice until Raylan Givens in Justified. I think it may be that Timothy is getting older and his hair is getting a little grey — I dig that in a man. He can be the Humpday Hottie for a month of Wednesdays and it wouldn’t be enough.
YUM.
If you aren’t watching Justified (on FX) you are missing out. It is funny, intense and sexy as all get out.

Thanks to the PENS for another heart stopping year. Love you most.
Now I just have to watch rerun games until October. = )
Yah they played like shit for most of Game 7 and they are out of the playoffs – but to all of the so called fans on twitter (that talked shit) and at Mellon (who left early ZOMG) fuck you. Turn over your fan card right now. That was no way to support your team. Correction OUR team because obviously you don’t count.
I love you PENGUINS – for better or for worse and I will see you next year!!

May 12 is Fibromyalgia Awareness Day. But to steal a line from the Autism Awareness campaign – in this house, every day is Fibromyalgia Awareness Day.
Fibromyalgia is the cruelest thing. Just when you think you can not go on one more moment the pain and the brain fog lets up — almost to a point where you start to feel normal. You find tiny spurts of energy where there was none before and you think maybe now you can get on with your life.
Then bad days start to creep back in, you try to cope. You try to keep your head up and remember that good days are just around the corner. Then bad days are there full time and you start to forget what a good day feels like.
You try everything – nerve blocks, infusions of medicine, pills, massage, hot water, walking, removing sugar, removing chemicals, adding oils and meditation. Heating pads, sleeping pills, breathing exercises … you become desperate to be the person you used to be.
You realize that person isn’t there anymore. You are forever changed by this and there is no going back. You see the world differently. You move slower. Your obsessions change.
I am grateful that I have Michael. He is the best thing that has ever happened to me — healthy or sick.
But when I am sick – he has the patience and the understanding that I need to get through the day. I am my own worst critic, judge, jury and enemy when it comes to all of the things I can no longer do or be. He helps me with that. I am also lucky *if you can call it that* to have friends and family that share in my pain. Truth is you probably know someone with fibromyalgia. I am glad that I am not alone – though I wouldn’t wish this on anyone.
I have lost my balance … I fall a lot now. Before I was diagnosed I think the last time I took a nasty spill was when I was a teen-ager. Now, seems like a few times a month I find myself on the ground without reason or cause and a couple of times a year it requires ice packs and x-rays.
Of course trying to explain Fibromyalgia to someone who doesn’t have it in their life full time is like trying to swim through pudding. You get the idea but you never really understand what it feels like until you try it.
Then there are the skeptics who think it is all in my head … they don’t understand or care that I can’t work even a part time job from home because of this crap. It is all in my head because after all, no one has fibromyalgia until YOU have fibromyalgia.
So at least for one day – try to put your skepticism aside, try to understand that not all disabilities are visible, have a little patience, and please be gentle. Because we didn’t ask for this, and if we could be a different way we would in a heartbeat.

or “Where in the World is Gwyneth Paltrow’s Ass?”
In Iron Man GP had packed on a few curves and didn’t look like a 14 year old boy much to my surprise and enjoyment. But alas, guess she dropped the baby weight and it is back to rail thin and no ass for her.
Not too much of a problem as Mrs. Ryan Reynolds provided curves a plenty.
Mickey Rourke pulled off skeezy Russian dude with no problems but I still love him.
Where the fuck was Terrence Howard? Don’t get me wrong I love Don Cheadle but WTF people … Terrence Howard did good. I wanted to see HIM fly around and kick ass …. dammit.
Does anyone else confuse Sam Jackson’s Nick Fury with the afro’d gimp in Shamalamadingdongs Unbreakable?? Anyone? Guess I am not a comic book geek after all.
Well I am glad I saw it on the big screen … but it wasn’t something I would want to watch over again. I really liked Iron Man better. More RDJ all sweaty and dirty — sexay bitch. Terrence Howard, GP’s Ass … yup that about covers it.
OH … last let down … all of the ads for the R8 V10 … it wasn’t another character in the flick, you got to see it like 3 times. It didn’t do any tricks or look any cooler than in the ads … but damn if I don’t want one. Audi, you know the Germans make good stuff. = )
That is all.

First let me apologize to all of the people I turned on to Facebook. Had I known they were going to take your privacy and shit on it I never would have suggested it.
I am leaving Facebook – check this link http://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2010/05/things-you-need-know-about-facebook for more information as to why.
This is just the final straw. For years Facebook has changed things needlessly, and made the use of the site difficult and now they have thrown our privacy and CHOICE out the window.
Even when you OPT OUT of things – Facebook doesn’t care. That is not cool. So I am leaving.
It is unfortunate because I have made great friends and caught up with old friends there. I only hope I can continue to keep up with these friends by other means.

Categories: Shiv a Bitch.
A few months ago when Vicious and BW were down for a visit “Shiv A Bitch” was brought up. Now I have said “Cut a Bitch” for years but SHIV is so much more … visceral. Has that touch of rough and tumble high jinx that you can only find in prison. Cut a Bitch could happen almost anywhere – I’ve wanted to cut bitches at the local SquallMart but shiv a bitch … now that shit is saved for special occasions. After all you can cut with almost any sharp implement but to SHIV properly you need some dirty ass plastic spork gone rogue. There is much more effort and much more risk involved in shivving a bitch.
We talked about getting a whole website up — but I think for now just a new category will do.
So randomly or weekly I will be bringing to you bitches that need shivvin’ … enjoy.
