My MySpace Space
This morning, my still-drunk cousin IMed me from his bedroom, where his "date" from the night before was still passed out in bed, with his muddy dog. Classy, no?
He's a douche, but I love him. Mostly because he's not afraid to be a douche. He owns his douchery and is, as a result, very funny and virtually void of pretense.
In the course of our conversation (during which I must decipher some of the most horrendous spelling and grammar known to man or beast), he happened to mention that he has a MySpace. BWAAAAAAAAA HA HA HA HA HA HA! He's a banjo-pickin' construction worker... with a MySpace. I'm going to have to call him Kate-Lynn from now on.
Now, I have a LiveJournal. It's where I started, and I kept it when I got my own site because of the small-but-valuable network of friends I've made there. (Shout-out to Lori and C. Elff! Werd t' ya mutha!)
I've toyed with the idea of creating a MySpace, to maybe draw more traffic to this site. But a MySpace just seems so... I don't know... teenaged girly, ya know? My sixteen year old step daughter has a MySpace. Aren't she and I supposed to have, like, NOTHING in common? Isn't that the rule?
(No, I'm not linking to her or "friending" her on my MySpace. She's very pretty, and I don't want you sickos stalking her.)
When my cousin mentioned his MySpace, I, of course, demanded a link, and promptly laughed my ass off. He's a crass little gayrod, that's for sure. I read his blog posts -- very funny, when translated from the original Stoner -- and wanted to see his photos. But I can't see his photos unless I have a MySpace account.
So I made a MySpace. Yeah, this is the level to which my life has plummeted: I made a MySpace account... so I could see photos of my cousin toking up and sitting on the toilet. *sigh* Words fail me.
But, hey, I was already committed. The foul deed had been done, so why not add some friends? Found a few, requested a few more (including Tyra Banks and Janice Dickinson).
JANICE!!!
I doubt I'll blog there much. Even with my added twenty hours of leisure time every week, I already have this website and the LJ to keep up. I can't do everything! But I'm sure I'll keep adding friends, to validate my existance and make me feel special.
--<jumping up and down like a heavily caffienated teacup poodle> Friend me! Friend me! Friend me! </jumping up and down like a heavily caffienated teacup poodle>-- But if I don't know you, drop me a quick note so I know you're not just some starving artist or amateur pornographer looking for free ad space.
Not that there's anything wrong with amateur pornography...

Right back at ya, sistah!
But, I am disappointed. I thought myspace was owned by that freak Murdock who runs Fox News. Am I misinformed (again?)

I'm speaking for Von & myself when I say, welcome to the fold. I'm sure we'll both be friending you soon for sure.
