Boring Days, Boring Lists

I knew you all enjoy a good chuckle. So...how about a picture of me in second grade...and one as a Junior in High School. Hey! I said *chuckle* NOT *guffaw*. Stop that! I said STOP it!
So, it rained all day and I had to run all manner of errands. Now, is that anything to blog about? I ask you? And, not a single picture was taken. I know you are all shocked. It is a stunning turn of developments. The local news media had a field day with it. "Susie Q's Camera Sits In Silence...Nothing Worthwhile To Blog About..." Film at 11. So, what is a blogger to do? Hmmm...make lists! That's it! Dazzle them with lists! Huh? Yeah, well, bore them with lists MIGHT be more appropriate but would you rather I wrote about my run to the grocery store? The base pharmacy? The hair dresser's? That's right..I didn't think so. See? A list looks pretty good in comparison now doesn't it?
Here is a little list game...
Instructions: Google the phrase “(insert your name) looks like” and find the best ones from the first page of results. DON’T FORGET TO PUT IT IN QUOTES, otherwise it won’t work. For example, "Barbara Looks Like".... Sue looks like one of those McDonald's Happy Meal Toys they put out to promote a movie... Now, this may or may NOT be insulting. I mean, what movie? Cute and cuddly Disney characters like Winnie the Pooh? Oh...I had no idea that McDonald's sold toys to promote Texas Chain Saw Massacre 12 and Zombies From Mars. Sue looks like she's warming up already... I know, it's those pesky hot flashes again. Sorry. Sue looks like she can handle herself in a dark alley... Oh yeah baby, bring it on. Sue looks like a culprit described in the eyewitness accounts... Hmm... She had beady little eyes and a weak chin...and it looked like she had been in a scuffle. Probably in a dark alley somewhere. Sue looks like a man... Okay, you do not have to be this cruel. Sue looks like a teenage boy... That is NOT any better! Sue looks like a blond blow-up doll and totally vapid... Ooh...a doll! How sweet, how lov...whoa. A BLOW UP doll?? Is this a weight slam? VAPID?? Hey! I told you my day was boring! You don't have to rub it in! Sue looks like Jay Leno with that jawline. And her teeth are angled strangely. And that chin...Ugh... Now we are back to that looks like a man with a chin thing and those beady little eyes...and now they are picking on my teeth...sheesh. Years of braces for what... Sue looks like she could take a nap... Oh now THIS is so true it is scary... Sue looks like she is very tired... Uh huh. It's from all those alley fights I have had lately. Now, change Sue to Susie and look what you get! Susie looks like she is proud that she can jump up on the tailgate... Hey, if I could jump up on a tail gate, heck. Jump up on anything, I would be darned proud! Susie looks like a Goddess. All heads turn when she walks by... Well, now, This is more like it. It's that vapid look thing. I have it down to a science. Susie looks like Lily Munster... Um...well, I always did like broad shouldered, tall men. Come here Herman you hunk you. Susie looks like Jar-Jar Binks from Star Wars... Well, Kari will be thrilled. Me? Not so much. Susie looks like a creepy gargoyle that if you feed a drop of blood it will tell you your future... Lily Munster wasn't bad enough? Now I am a creepy gargoyle with a taste for blood? Susie...looks like she needs a hug... Well you would too if Google thought you looked like a vapid, creepy, beady eyed gargoyle of a teenage boy who gets into alley fights. Maybe I should just have stuck with blogging about my boring day. Oh well. I think I will head off to bed now...I need a nap. Google said so.
Hugs, Susie Q

You were a cutie at both ages!
Pesky hot flashes, my dupa...these days mine are coming in floods. No...in deluges...
I'm gonna google my name and see what I look like, LOL!
And thanks for the nice comment, but I'm not that talented. I just like to do a lot of different things. I'm not all that good at most of them, LOL--but I'm not entering any contests, either.

Melissa said...

Wow - I try really hard not to say anything unkind about people on my blog, but I guess others don't have the same policy!

That was interesting - I may have to try it. Then again, I may not be able to handle the results!
