Relations

I like to tell people that the only reason I have so many crazy stories about my family is that there are so damned many of us. You get enough people together, and some of them WILL be insane. However if I'm perfectly honest, my family has a little something extra going for it.
So!
Mentioned on Twitter the other night!

*One of my aunt's blew her life savings investing in over-sized condoms. This is only made better by the fact that this is the incredibly socially awkward spinster aunt whose greatest love is her tiny lap dogs.

*My cousin Berry, who is my uncle Randy's son, lives in a box in my uncle Jonathan's living room.

*My mom's cousin Scott has a mail-order bride. Actually he got her on the internet, but I think 'mail-order' still works. She's from Thailand and she cost $25,000. I'm pretty sure that for $2000 I could get a plane ticket to Thailand and go pick out my own wife, but I guess that's not really the point. He bought her when he was 44 and she was 22; I think that was four years ago. They had a kid, and afterward when to visit Thailand, where for 400 Baht, she had her vagina "made to look like a 14-year-old's again." I just did the conversion, and that comes around $11.75 USD, and even in Thailand I'm not sure what kind of surgery you can have for $12 that's remotely safe, but I don't plan on having elective surgery on my ladybits anyhow.
The boughten-wife is pregnant again, but since she's all reconstructed Down There, she has to have a C-Section, which is how it came to be that Scott told us all about The Procedure. And just so you know, all of us included, at the time, me, my sister, my mom, his sister, ET CETERA. It was mixed company, yo.

*My grandma used to be a pigeon farmer. Did you know that there is a market for farmed pigeons?

Queries

lubed boobs - I myself have not experimented with applying lubrication to my breasts, but I wish you the very best.

romance smut - It really is lovely, isn't it? If you find some good stuff, pass it on to grace (at) missdisgrace (dot) com.

crippling anxiety - Makes it hard to do anything besides screw around on Twitter. Believe me, I know.

how to make flashdance jumper - I wouldn't have the slightest idea, unfortunately.

"my aunt" drunk "a ride home" my car fucking - The specificity of the search is distressing to me. Just might supersede rule 34.

"no voice at all"+"whispering" - Yes, that's generally what one must do when vocalization proves impossible.

"saw my boobs" Mexican - ....

a blog about my boobs - Yes! Finally I can really offer some help! That blog is called Boob Emancipation, and it's located right over here.

"a text message that would make someone feel bad and wanna text you back" - "You make me feel dead inside."

am i allergic to gin? - Oh goodness no! But you might have herpes.

being 16 is hard - Yes.

boobs moby dick - Moby Dick was a whale, and while whales are mammals, and therefore in possession of mammary glands, Moby, being male, does not provide sustenance to his young.

cholita eyebrows - Yikes. Let them grow back.

code for sex have lunch and catch up - I guess "go to Chico" hasn't quite caught on yet then.

crooked toes as a teenager and what you can do to correct them - Likely very little, unfortunately.

gatorade bottles boobs - I don't think they'd fit.

high arches big boobs - I have both. It means you can wear slutty shirts AND slutty shoes, for maximum sluttiness effect.

just using the phone causes anxiety for me - Me too, unfortunately I don't have a solution. And answering the phone is part of my job. I've developed a killer phony phone voice though.

thursday, thursday is the drinking day drunk - Correct. Add to that days Friday through Wednesday.

www.missdisgrace.com sex - I include this only because it's so very specific. Where you hoping for missdisgracesex.com? It does not exist. Shall I purchase the domain?

Nerdy? Dirty? Wordy? Sturdy?

My sister is 30. As I mentioned last year, our childhood relationship was somewhat contentious. We've evolved from the scratching and the biting and the midnight sabotage.

She's my best friend and my worst enemy.

IMG_0547

Sometimes it enrages me how well we know each other, but we really do have the BEST times together.

IMG_4384

Often, we get asked if we're twins. I freely admit to the strong family resemblance, but, I mean, twins? Really? She's five inches taller than me yo, we're not identical. And then whomsoeverthefuck goes on to assume that I'm the older sister. Well fuck you dude, because she's THIRTY. This is my sister Laura, who's in her THIRTIES.

She keeps threatening to start a blog, which would be both horrifying and awesome. If it ever happens, I'll probably send you there, but since she's a funnier and more talented writer and story teller? I might just keep it a secret so as not to overly wound my pride.

Laura totally throws me to the wolves when we go out together. She uses me as a bargaining chip for free drinks from gross men. "Well I'm married, but MY SISTER is single!" Bah.

She is both the more generous and considerate of the two of us, and the snarkier, more teasing, more infuriating one. Just ask my brothers.

I want YOU!

Regardless, she is awesome.

Happy Birthday Laura.

Girl Talk Thursday - SHOES!!!



Yeah yeah yeah I know. I JUST talked about shoes. So you already know about my impractical photo project. But seeing as I'm totes spooning Maria at BlogHer in a couple weeks, I simply must participate! I want her to LOVE ME! (An aside: a couple weeks!?! OMGOMGSQUEE!!!)

SHOES! Uh. I kinda like shoes. Like a lot. Like enough that they have their own tag here. I have really stupid Barbie feet which I feel are freakishly long for my height and with the STUPID HIGH ARCH INSTEP BLAH I can't buy regular shoes, like, y'know, sneakers. I've decided to deal with the unsightly long things with their finger toes by decorating them with toe polish and impractical heels.

I have a shoe over-packing habit. With my upcoming BlogHer trip, where I REALLY want to look purty for all the other purty ladies, this could present problems. I've pulled out my "comfortable" heels for consideration, and as per this moment (in addition to "practical" shoes), up for nomination:

Nine West
These are my new Nine West shoes, bought on my recent Santa Barbara trip. They're black, which is good for going with stuff, and I broke them in when I was wasteface, so they're pretty comf.

Aerosole
Aerosoles! These are the most comfy heels ever. As the wear and tear shows, I've worn them a LOT. Loves them. But they're getting kinda shabby from going out with me nigh on every weekend.

Franco Sarto
Franco Sarto, and RED! SQUEE! Lower heel than the others, but not necessarily "practical" color-wise.

Naturalizer
My silver Naturalizers. They are silver. What else do you need to know? I got these for my birthday two years ago.

Gold Nine West
Everyone needs gold shoes, right? These are Nine West. I put pads in them for the ball of my foot. They aren't torture, but they're not the MOST comfortable either.
But! Gold!

Joan & David
I *heart* these Joan & David heels. Special bonus points because I bought them AT THE COCKTAIL PARTY on Saturday night of BlogHer08. They're adorable and wearable and SIGH WITH LOVE. Drawback is that they are navy. So I'm not totally sure what I'm allowed to wear with them?

Anyways. Thoughts?

Post not edited before I hit publish

MY BOOBS IN ALL THEIR GLORY

So. I'm the official winner of BEWB Fest 09! I'd like to thank the academy, fancy well structured bras, flattering photography angles, and a bevy of extremely dedicated voters! I guess this means that I'm obligated to hold up my end of the deal, wherein I promised to pose in my lingerie prize for Boob Emancipation.
So I guess if you're looking for votes on your boobs, it pays to have a website specifically devoted to, well, boobs!

MY FUCKING FUCKETY CAR

My car. Fuck. I can't even talk about it because really? Fuck. Just. Gah. FUCK. Can I say it again? FUCK.
Gabriel is spending three weekends in a row with his dad, two of which are 3-day weekends. So I had my mom pick him up yesterday, so he could get in some much needed and longed for grandma-time. And then my car! With the FUCK ME! So Gabey was at my mom's and I was at my house, 30-some-odd miles away. Which under ordinary circumstance would be pfft fine whatever and he would sleep over at my mom's and she would take him to school in the morning and I would spend my evening putzing around my apartment, per usual.
Except Gabriel's been at his dad's so much lately and is leaving again on Thursday and I really miss my baby. So. I took the bus to my sister's house, borrowed her car, drove to my mom's, got the child, watched the Giants game (can we get a fuck yes for the Giants? Rock. On.), came home. Then had to get up extra early drive to my sister's house, give her back her car, walk Gabriel to school, and then, because today is the first day of the new fiscal year and I'm a flaky loser who hasn't gotten her new bus pass yet, pay to take the bus to work, and then stop by parking services to get the new pass, and yeah.
FUCK.
Or did I say that already?
So I'm supposed to take Gabriel up to Sacramento this weekend AND pick him up on Sunday, because MY CAR WAS EXPLODING last month and I couldn't meet K.Dot and I owe him a trip.
Fuck.

4TH OF JULY INDEPENCE HUZZAH

So because of the afore mentioned Sacramento ferry, I was planning on spending this weekend in Chico (no not like that), because I don't wanna do two round trips to Sacramento and I hate driving and SUCK.
Except.
1) Will my car be operable? Who can say, really.
B. Chico is hot.
III - My sister's birthday is Friday.
iv: I'm actually invited to 4th of July BBQ's and whatnot this year.
funf ~ My brother needs a ride up to Sacramento on Sunday, so that would be handy.
-
On the side of going to Chico, I already told Stella and Darci I was coming, and I know that if either one were gonna come here and I got a babysitter and then got bailed on, I'd be pissed, no matter the legitimacy. Also? I need a haircut something fierce and serious before I go to BlogHer, and I absolutely trust Stella with such things. I'm not feeling adventurous enough to experiment with a new hair stylist immediately before I fly out to Chicago and meet y'all in person. Plus I like Chico, which I guess counts for something, right?
