I was just duped big time.
My boyfriend just fed me a total crock of shit and I ate it gleefully. I never thought I was that gullible. We briefly paused on a Willie Nelson concert from PBS this evening. After admiring Willie's beautifully beaten up guitar, the bf doesn't skip a beat and begins telling me a story of how he met Mr. Nelson, and carved his initials into Willie's guitar. This was immediately followed by a "What? Really? I can't believe he'd let you sign it" (as I'm shocked yet excited to collect a cool random factoid to share with someone). He leads me on a bit, then waits until the camera focuses into a shot of said initials. Boom, the spotting of the B.C. engraving was met with high pitch squeals and even an ohmygod.


Turns out it was all a sham, I'm a big gullible baby and I need to not listen to a word my mister says.

I've been a bit quiet lately due to the fact that my computer died and life is getting in the way of my normal routines. I am a creature of habit & routine so this sudden shift is slightly unsettling. For non jinxing reasons I will not bring up what's been getting in the way of my habitual interneting. All I'm going to say is that I am working on being considerably more optimistic about life. I'm nurturing a "YES I CAN" attitude for once. With this new forced outlook I have begun using some really random expressions and euphemisms. I actually said" gilding the lily" the other day. Really.

gild ¹(gld)tr.v. gild·ed or gilt (glt), gild·ing, gilds

To give an often deceptively attractive or improved appearance to.

Idiom: gild the lily

1. To adorn unnecessarily something already beautiful.

2. To make superfluous additions to what is already complete.

This unique and colorful custom is referred to as

paddling the brakes.

Guess what I've been doing? That's right --

titillating the biscuits.

Needless to say, I promptly began

Things I learned from my google analytics today:

1. I hate reviewing my stats
2. Two Belarusian citizens have visited my page
3. I clearly never paid attention in geography because I've never heard of Belarus
4. Minsk is the capital of Belarus
5. They have a really pretty national emblem
6. The Belarus Woman's prison has a cool mural:
