I actually wouldn't mind learning the violin. Not sure if I would show it off at the burn next year. Perhaps I could learn some new knots. At least then they would be used at the burn next year.

TPBM is also considering learning something new for the burn next year.

Yes, happy about the new truck, although not happy about new car payments.

TPBM makes impulse buys specifically for the burn, and justifies them as "needs".

Nope, don't care enough for real sports so not much point in imaginary sports.

TPBM wants to shoot their boss

Actually, yes. I'm working for a scenic design company (the same one that TheCO works for but we are in different departments) and I have recently mastered the art of working with aqua-resin and Bondo... AND we're building some BRC-worthy shit so, it's pretty fun too.

not past tense, but yes, not sure what i will be getting into. still in the 'wheels are turning' phase.
cheers to fishy, who doubted my non-creativeness, just took a week in the desert to kickstart it.

Seeing as I know REAL MEN who don't even have penises, REAL MEN who wear dresses & high heals, REAL MEN who climb mountains and cook and clean and create art and forge metal and ... I don't think you can define what makes a "real man", other than they identify as male (same for females).


tpbm has a very open concept of gender roles.

If you pay attention to the beginning of most "reality" shows, in tiny letters at the bottom about two thirds of them say they are at least partially scripted.

TPBM doesn't watch TV

Sit down & watch - nope. Boyfriend watches in the other room, so I hear it & if I turn I can see it, but since it's mainly news or Comedy Central, that's fine.

I once appeared on a public access show as the deranged fan of a profane hand puppet named . . . Harvey, I think. Oh, and I'm visible laughing in the audience of The Daily Show some years ago, wearing an I HEART NY tank top.
