Memeing … My Brain Huuuurts


Okaym this is a hybrid post – half somethin gthat haopoend today, ha;lf meme.
(YES, I know I need an MRI. That sentence was typed so badly I felt I should keep it in its original state.)

Anyway, here’s a hybrid post, because I just didn’t get enough sleep last night. I didn’t get enough sleep because I realized mid-REM cycle that I was supposed to have an 8am appointment with Steve the Hairstylist.

The appointment was at 8 a.m. because a) Steve has changed his hours and b) I am deluded.

Steve began, “I really appreciate you coming in early, but as you know I changed my hours. I work fewer weekends and evenings now.”
“To be with your family,” I said.

I deeply regretted that later, at the end, when Steve paused and said, “Well, there’s something I feel I need to say to you.” By the time he came out with the “something” I had a look of deep concern and revulsion on my face, because from the look on his face I could guess what was coming. He said something along the lines of, “Hey, thanks being decent about this time-switch thing, I appreciate your business.” However, because he is Steve, he included words like “grace” and “strength” and oh, other crap I can’t type, and because I’m me, my face said “STOP IT YOU’RE HURTING ME” and my mouth said, “What type of rich bitches do you usually deal with?”

All that to explain why this meme, tagged unto me by Katie, both intrigued and repelled me.

Pick your month of birth , and bold traits that apply to you. Here’s my month – you’ll start to notice a trend.

I also italicized traits that so completely do not apply to me it made me doubt the scientific validity of this meme.

AUGUST: Loves to joke. Attractive.
Suave and caring. Brave and fearless. Firm and has leadership
qualities. Knows how to console others. Too generous and egoistic*.
Takes high pride in oneself. Thirsty for praises. Extraordinary spirit.
Easily angered. Angry when provoked. Easily jealous. Observant. Careful
and cautious. Thinks quickly. Independent thoughts. Loves to lead and
to be led*. Loves to dream. Talented in the arts, music and defense**.
Sensitive but not petty. Poor resistance against illnesses. Learns to
relax. Hasty and trusty. Romantic. Loving and caring. Loves to make
friends.

*”Generous AND selfish?” “Lead and be led?” How about “Black and white?” How can someone be both?
** Defense? Should I be brushing up on my tai chi?

And please, “poor resistance to illness.” My immune system can kick your immune system’s ass.

  1. Okay, as a March baby I am sexy and affectionate and shy and reserved? Loves home decors? Obviously you have not seen my apartment. Musically talented? I can play the the theme from Sesame Street, kind of. One-handed.

  2. Your immune system can’t kick its way out of a paper bag, sister, it’s compromised. I know it tells you it’s tough, but you’ve got to stop being all easily led and believing it.On the other hand, you’re really good at the compassion thing, like when I admitted to having too many jammies, you bragged about how you’re down to five pairs and…Nevermind. 😉

  3. I know, lame-ass meme, but I feel compelled to do them when tagged because if I don’t do them, I fear that no one will ever tag me again. Thanks for playing along. and I feel you on the brain hurting. I should type one whole blog and not correct any of the brain mistakes that I make. I think it might be a whole different language. Sort of a mentally-deficient one.

  4. Thirsty for praise? HahahahahaMaybe if it said, “appreciates brutal honesty delivered humorously” I could believe that.

  5. Thirsty for praise? HahahahahaMaybe if it said, “appreciates brutal honesty delivered humorously” I could believe that.

  6. Sorry for the double post. My internet was acting up. Or maybe I wanted to laugh at the idea of you wanting praise a second time.

  7. Thirsty for praise? *phlllllbt* More like “Pay me one compliment and I’ll beat you over the head with my centerpiece, you condescending cow.”

  8. Kathy – I can play all of Three Blind Mice. Sesame Street sounds much more sophisticated.Jammies – Wouldn’t it be freaky if pajamas caused MS? It would explain why the incidence is so much smaller at the equator.Sherry – Now you sound like all the rest of my friends!Katie – No, I liked being meme-tagged. And my brain was so shot that I needed a meme.Caroline – You know, you are so sweet, Caroline. I really enjoy being friends with you. You are so sensitive and open and warm and thoughtful. Give me a hug. Friend #3 – Well, your compliments suck.
