Livin it One Day at A Time

In an invention that is so simple, I wish *I* had invented it, I present the slanket

Hint, Hint, my birthday is coming up…. (for those of you who wanted to know what I wanted for Christmas..)

Or I could deal with getting a Luv Sac knock off from ebay.. Made out of noxious foam if I remember right..

I was digging

around the internet when I found the following article

That’s the conclusion of two recent studies that confirm a long-standing stereotype of flirting: that women like joky men, while men like women who laugh at their jokes.

Well, durr

Eric Bressler of Westfield State College, Massachusetts, and colleague Sigal Balshine of McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, did this by asking more than 200 male and female college students to examine photos of members of the opposite sex. Some had funny quotes pinned beneath them, such as: “My high school was so rough we had our own coroner.” Others had bland ones: “I’d rather walk to school than take the bus.”

Women ranked the humorous men as better potential partners, the researchers found - and as more friendly, fun and popular. Men’s view of a woman, on the other hand, appeared to be uninfluenced by her wit¹.

Well, I like where this is going.

According to one theory, proposed by psychologist Geoffrey Miller at the University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, women prefer funny men because their wit reveals an active and healthy brain - and a fine set of underlying genes. “It’s a very powerful and reliable way to show creativity and intelligence,” Miller says.

Apparently I’m a Genius.

Or Maybe not…

If you’ve been reading this blog at all, you’ll notice I have a sort of.. OCD. I find something I like and go back to it repeatedly.

Some would say, I beat a dead horse.

I prefer flog.

Anyways, I was browsing around, and found the following at Empire Online

A sequel’s unlikely,” Whedon told Empire with a note of clear regret, “but it’s amazing what permutations of something can happen.” But if not a theatrical encore, that leaves… yes, you guessed it, a possible return to the smaller screen. “As long as I was able to service the characters with integrity and had enough money so that I wasn’t hampered, then I would love to return Serenity to TV.

After hearing that the project was dead, then alive, then dead again, I think I am going to snap. I really like this show, and I wish they’d quit messin with my head.

This browncoat hopes that Firefly makes it back to TV .

Whilst looking for a large metal shelf system (I’m talking 6 feet here people), I saw this little beauty.

Now, It may just have been that I was in such pain from moving the 7 foot shelf system.

I don’t think so.

More likely it would be because I’m hoping I could mooch some back rubs off of someone.

Or because it would look cool next to my 8 foot pinball shelf system.

Oh, and I saw an old College Professor. She called me unto repentance. Ug, more school.

I’ve been busy with the blog.

You might have noticed.

Posts.

Disappearing.

Well, I’ve added some plugins, one of which puts in a mail form. I’ve also added a link that says “subscribe to new posts”. It will send an e-mail when I post.

I think.

Let me know if anything is still broken.

I was perusing the Holiday isle(who knows when Christmas stuff will come out again?) at my local Albertson’s when I found something interesting in the Holiday Candy Isle (Can someone point out to me, a major holiday that *isn’t* associated with candy? 4th of July Maybe?)

Heart Shaped Peeps.

Be still my beating heart.

To think I was so worried about not getting any peeps after the Great Easter holiday passed.
