I cleaned my house for the exterminator. It’s not perfect but it looks better than it has in months. I FEEL better when my house is in order. So why do I mess it up so easily? Regardless of my apparent psychological disorder, I have decided I am going to make a concerted effort to keep this place tidy. It should be so easy. All I need to do is put things away and clean up after myself and vacuum every once in awhile.
Last night I went out with the Zumba girls. Zumba girls? I can’t remember if I told you guys that I take Zumba class once a week. I also take Kickboxing and I do a circuit workout too. There’s a group of women that I exercise with and we get together and PARTAY every now and then. Well, they usually PARTAY. I find excuses why I need to work or pretend to work. At any rate, Glenda, our instructor, consulted her spirit guide the other day. Glenda asked for our power words. You won’t believe what my power word is! REVEL!

This word hit me like a brick. It’s so true! I need to revel! All work and no play makes Donna a dull girl. And so I’ve really tried to internalize it. When the girls came calling yesterday, asking me to go out with them, how could I say no?
And I had a blast. So much so that I wonder how I got this Dos Equis tattoo on my chest and I am really hoping it comes off with baby oil.
Do you like it? Does it make me the most interesting woman in the world?
Totally out of curiosity, do you also have an aversion to people who have snotty voices? You know, like Diane from Cheers? I met a woman the other day and she had the most pompous voice. Plus she bragged about being a lawyer. I so wanted to kick her in the head. She is very successful so clearly most don’t find her lockjaw annoying or worthy of violence. Maybe it’s just me.
Stay thirsty my friends.
You’re plenty interesting without the help of Dos Equis, but I say leave it right where it is. When it dissapears, console yourself by imagining what a painful motherf***er it would have been to got the real thing done at such a “fragile” location.
You made my day with that pic. Thanks!
When you acquire a taste for Russian hands and Roman fingers then, and only then, will you be a true international Girl Gone Wild. Post pictures, please, when that happens.
B. Davis…how old are you? No, don’t answer that….I just had to ask, it made me giggle. I haven’t heard that expression since I was 16.
Rosalie…I’m older than you, no doubt.
I heard that expression when I was 21, from a young lady who wasn’t responding to my amorous attentions.
But she eventually came around. Happy ending.
P.S. Donna is a pirate ’cause X marks the spot.
HOW OLD IS B.DAVIS???????? THE WORLD WANTS TO KNOW!!!!!
No, the world doesn’t need to know. I’m between 40 and 90. That will suffice. BTW, I have a much better grasp of the world around me NOW than when I was under 40. People under the age of 40 don’t know much, and people under the age of 30 are so ignorant they shouldn’t be allowed to vote. IMHO.
P.S. Donna is very intelligent, attractive, articulate, entertaining, and sophisticated. She’s a wise and erudite soul in a young person’s body.
Did you, per chance, listen to Howard Stern’s interview with his wife, Beth, this week? She’s written a new book about dogs, which she went on air to promote. I have seen pix of her previously (she is a model). Once I heard her voice, I lost a lot of respect for her/him. Don’t know exactly why, but, voice-quality can be a real downer.
B.Davis– As demonstrated by the double X tattoo on my chest! 🙂
And Re: Beth Stern– I just pulled her up on Youtube and didn’t think she was all that bad. I was imagining early Kathie Ireland before she took voice lessons but Beth wasn’t too bad.
