3:30 am Phone Post
While Delia was webwhoring, I was watching . . . and telling you about it (five minutes, 10 seconds):
Real OC Housewives MakeUNDER Rant
My response to Oprah’s team dulling down the Real Housewives of Orange County:

Note: I didn’t see the show and am only going on the piece I linked to. Also, it’s not that I don’t think men — particularly gay men — are capable of being brilliant stylists and all of that, the part I hate is the whole “Ladies! COVER UP, will ya? Jesus, you fucking skanks — no one wants to see that much of your old-ass bodies, okaaaaaaaaaay?” attitude. And seriously, if someone doesn’t have style that sets them apart from the people they hang out with, do you really think that personal style is something you can THRUST upon them?
Radio Silence
Tonight while Delia was at her AA meeting I really wanted to play piano and sing, but as usual having the audio on the cams makes me feel totally self-conscious. I know I shouldn’t be, that even if I suck ass it’s entertaining, but that doesn’t matter; I want to be alone.
It’s not that hard to turn the audio off on the cams, but I feel guilty about it and worry that people just joining for the first time will check the cams, not hear anything, and think I lied about broadcasting audio. On the other hand, I feel guilty about not doing something I enjoy and value (making music for the sheer pleasure of it AND to practice/improve) so I think I’m going to start setting that time aside when Delia’s at her meetings for alone time at the piano and just turn the audio off on the cams. I might even log in a special silent cam since I don’t mind people WATCHING from a voyeuristic angle, I just don’t want to be heard, critiqued, etc.
Maybe if I keep that up we’ll start having monthly or weekly “performances” or something so the mystery can be revealed and to motivate me to focus on doing more than just noodling around.
WHAT made you lose your lunch?!?
I’m totally confused (and possibly deeply offended) by this post a Seattle guy made on Twitter so here I am, befuddled, bothered and bewildered:
What does this picture have to do with losing one’s lunch?
Seriously — I don’t get it. I mean, I *hope* I don’t get it. BECAUSE I HATE ASSHOLES! If you’re following over a thousand people to get exposure for your site, try not to be a dick (or try to be clear).
I suppose I haven’t got any room to talk about how whorey tweeters should represent themselves since I frequently post about pooping. But pooping doesn’t hurt anyone’s feelings. Though maybe it could make someone lose his lunch. Still, I don’t think I want to follow people who have such weak stomachs.
FYI: I may have misrepresented the guy’s site in my phone post. And everything else about him. Because I don’t know him or what he was trying to communicate. Obviously.

French Toast
FRENCH TOAST
Note: Bob Evans does not provide a competitive French Toast. It *looks* promising, but doesn’t deliver the density required of a hearty FT nor does it offer the fluffy springiness of a light toast. It’s instead a soggy sponge of a toast. We will have to go to a *real* hometown cookery to get something good.
