Happy Friday, y’all! Thankfully, it’s been a short 3-day work week for me, but I’m kind of finding it hard to get back into the swing of things at the office after my vacation(s). I think that I’ll chalk it up to key lime pie detox. So to ease my jitters, I was poking around on the internet on Thursday (while on my lunch hour, of course), and I found a few little slices of post-vacation-depression (PVD) entertainment.
****************

First of all, I’m a B-List Blogger, y’all! And what does that mean exactly? Basically, it means that I like torturing myself by staying up until half past midnight several days of the week keeping this freakin’ blog updated so that I can entertain my 2 readers while they are on their “lunch hour.” So what does it take to be an A-List Blogger? Well, not that anyone actually cares, but if I wanted to be an A-List Blogger, I would have to divorce GR, quit my job, move into a hovel, attach my laptop to, well, my lap, and strap on a pair of Depends. It’s that serious, y’all. Anyhow, I’m just happy living my life on the B-List. And thanks to Qtpies7 for showing me the way…

Now this little treasure I found on Alpha Dogma’s site. And while I’m not a huge fan of the Simpson’s, GR and I did take his niece and nephew a few weeks ago to watch The Simpsons Movie. And it was all kinds of funny—that is up until the scene where Bart Simpson is skateboarding in the nude, and GR’s very preteen niece looks at me all flustered, and I just point and laugh with popcorn shooting out of my mouth because what else can you do at that point? Anyhow, this is what GR and I would supposedly look like if we were transported to Springfield…

Um, I’m thinking me–maybe–but GR? Not so much. He looks like he’s on his way to a men’s-only macramé class.

Okay, so have you ever found a random shopping list in a grocery cart or an old photograph lodged between the pages of a book that you purchased at a thrift store? Well, regardless, you must check out this site. These guys have collected through the years random discarded items such as grocery lists, photographs, love letters, hate letters, napkin poetry, and everything in between, and posted them on this site along with some very witty commentary. They post a “Find of the Day,” and they’ve also put together several books and magazines containing items not shown on their site. It’s fun and quirky stuff, y’all! You never know if you’ll come across something that you discarded years ago…

And finally, I want to announce something really big that I’m so excited about! And no, I am not pregnant. I, Lulu, am getting a facelift. Yes, you heard me correctly, a facelift. Well, a blogging facelift anyway. I’ve recruited Leanne over at Intricate Art to create a new blog design for Lulu’s Laundry. I’ll also be changing my URL, but I’ll pass that on to you as soon as everything is set up and ready to go. For now, I just want to give you a little sneak peak of my new design that Leanne has created…it’s just a mock-up, so the finished product will look a little different…
Very cool, huh? Leanne is awesome to work with and obviously very creative. She also designed Kailani’s site—An Island Life—which I’ve always admired.
So, that’s about it guys! Hope you all have a fabulous weekend!



Who are you trying to kid: GR is such a macrame kind of guy. I can tell. Plus I love your Simpsonised self. Sexy.
Oooh. Nice template. Do you have to pay for wordpress blogs?
And I’m a C-list blogger. Gee. That is really sad.
I’m sick. I am incapable of creative segues. Pardon my randoms.
Randomness.
Not randoms.
Seriously: am sick. As is five year old. Five year old who is keeping me up watching Thomas the Tank Engine, because when HE can’t sleep NO ONE can sleep.
…well, I had a stalker psycho ex friend reading my blog..that left me with a creapy feeling..It was called MP’s Journal..and this one is my 2nd journal..it’s new…
I’m telling you all that to justify that I am a D List Blogger…just call me Kathy Griffin
I’m a d-lister, too! Kinda bummed me out, to tell you the truth. Oh well.
I’m curious about wordpress too. My hubby keeps encouraging me to switch from blogspot. Is Leanne expenesive?
Love the new mock-up! I’m so excited for you!
And you’ll always be an A List Blogger to me!
Dig the new layout! Very creative!
I’m ipmesrsed! You’ve managed the almost impossible.
