L Word Thought of the day

In the first season of L Word there is this character named Lisa who is actually a guy who identifies himself as a lesbian. I know what you’re thinking. Genius! He only dates lesbians because he claims to be a lesbian. Clever. I could go on about how silly this whole thing is and how he won’t use his own “piece” for sex, but I fear I may offend some male indentified lesbians out there.

The reason I brought this up is because as I was watching I thought to myself, this guy is kind of cute and kind of famliar. Sure enough, he is none other than Brian Krakow from My So Called Life. Holy Shit. I love it when nerdy awkward characters grow up to be alternative characters in independent movies or a breakthrough series.

Warm Fuzzy For the Day

Costco, where you can go in for nothing and come out looking like you’re going to feed a large Mexican family.

I NEVER buy clothes at Costco, but this time I noticed they had my favorite bra, 2 for the price of 1. I held a package in my hand, looked at the size and realized I wasn’t sure what size I normally wear for this bra. (Some women can vouch for the “depends on the bra” size confusion.)

So what did I do? “Excuse me, maam? Can I ask you a favor? Will you look at the tag on my bra and tell me what size it is?” Polite woman lifts the back of my shirt, looks at the tag, and tells me I’m a 36C. I thanked her. “No problem, I’m always making my kids do that for me and they hate it.”

Thank you kind Costco customer. May your cart always be full of all the tortillas and bulk size Salsa your heart desires.

Pet Peeve of the Day

Come out of the bathroom stall, watch me walk in there, and don’t bother telling me there isn’t a stitch of toilet paper left. Not even that last glued-on half a square at the end of the roll.

May you feel the wrath of toilet paper karma one day when you have the worst shits of your life and not even scraps floating around on the floor or stuck to your shoe.

L Word thought of the day

I’ve started watching L Word and I have some thoughts:

First off, maybe all the gay men who watched “Queer As Folk” feel this way too, but why is it that these shows continue to have BEAUTIFUL people play all the characters. Even the lesbians that are supposed to be butch are feminine. Totally bogus. Okay, I got that off my chest.

Next. I once had a woman tell me that you won’t be taken seriously in a gay bar if you have long nails (or something to that effect). They mention this on the first episode of the L Word. This got me thinking. I looked at my guitar sitting in the corner of the room. I can’t play it and I haven’t taken a single lesson (even though that was the plan). But how would you really know this? Because I have long nails. So whether you’re trying to figure out which side of the fence someone stands on or whether that guitar is just for show. I guess now you know. Although it could be said that lesbians grow their nails out in between girlfriends. Thoughts?
