someone is having a helluva time traveling through europe, but it ain’t me.
Rich, the anti-eponymous author of the wildly popular blog brainsorts expressed to me after my stats complaining post the other day that he would gladly take credit for putting my blog on the map and being the supporter that would get me eventually published.
Of course, I challenged him to explain that in detail to my audience which he has so masterfully done with this short piece I am publishing today. I don’t think even my Mom gets me like Rich. This glowing piece of work here depicts me in a light that not even the back of my hand could understand.
OK, I need to share a little bit about my guest author (although I know most of the folks here know him better than I)
When Rich isn’t busy cruising the Gravatars of attractive ladies on my blog he can be found hawking several exceptional pieces…

Is it acceptable for me to like a post that I wrote some of the content? I say yes!
of course. now i’ve got to go back and “like” about 286 of my own.
the problem is I dislike most of my own, but there is not a button for that
most of us dislike our own. but if we “realllly” disliked it, we wouldn’t have posted it.
notice all the mirror references?
🙂
Wonderful job of this! I really enjoyed it.
thanks and thanks. and one more thanks.
I enjoyed this bromantic banter! Good to get a shout out every once in a while isn’t it…I’ll let you know someday. 🙂
Gives me an idea…
Oh no that wasn’t a suggestion, that would make me a big douche wouldn’t it? Haha!
not at all. and what’s wrong with a suggestion? that’s like lots of great things happen, when one person has some knowledge, and so does someone else, and they put it together. like “sonny and cher.” glad i thought of that one. it made me think about other people here who know more than me about certain things and asking if they’d write about something that i’d post on my blog, and in turn there might be something i could post on that person’s blog. as if i’m the first person to think of that…
It’s genius though, collaboration leads to some of the best creativity. Food for thought! We’re already on the same page with our comment box!
clearly something to consider. thanks.
Indeed. Have to get my wheels turning.
I’m quite pleased with myself, actually. I really nailed it with you two, didn’t I? I should set up blind dates more often. 🙂
Michael, Rich — you two are dinner and the show! Now, which one of you gets to be the dinner and which one the show, I’ll leave that up to you; either way, the pairing is sublime. In fact, Sonny and Cher ain’t got nothing on you two!
but one of them is dead and the other made of plastic. based on that – i call cher!
How are your legs, Rich?
thick thighs. lots of ice skating.
how’s your duodenum?
Hm — not sure if that’ll work, then; Cher’s pretty lean through the thighs.
My duodenum, you ask? Oh, it’s perfectly great, thank you. 😉
and your shoelaces?
It’s a slippers kind-of-day, my friend. Brooding clouds, biting breeze, air moist enough to swallow.
And yours?
slip on shoes. love ’em. $15, last about 8 months, toss ’em out, get new ones.
Have you bought a pair of TOMS yet? Rich, I’m telling you, you’re gonna love ’em!
my daughter has and she loves them. and some friends. are they in regular stores? online only?
You can buy them in many places — I think you would likely have to a Google search to narrow it down, though. Surf shops and trendy shoe stores will carry them.
Also . . . and consider this simply one woman’s taste and opinion, but I love the seamless look of a man’s leg barefoot in a shoe. Not a sandal, but a shoe. My Michael has wonderfully long legs, and I coax him into wearing shorts that sit just above the knee and his TOMS, all to showcase the beautiful trajectory of the leg. 🙂 Okay, I’m done.
i’m weird about shoes and no socks. the foot sweat soaks into the shoe and, eww. no?
Ha! Yes and the smell ain’t so cute, either. I have a trick for that (I have a trick for everything.). You can buy those form-fitting ankle socks that dip low around the toes. No one will ever know you are wearing socks, but when you take them off at the end of the day, you won’t peel the paint off your walls or be led astray into the black stench.
i’ve tried wearing those socks. everyone in the world seems to enjoy them, but when i wear them they slide down into the front of my shoe. grrr.
Then you need to go down a size, maybe two. Make sure the elastic in the back around your ankle is snug. I won’t give up on you!
aww. you care about my feet. that’s so nice!
Feet are terribly unappreciated appendages.
something about barefoot women in shorts that catches my attention. i’m sure that’s not a unique male thought.
Could be. Or perhaps just a “Rich” thing. 🙂
Don’t tear down the “reality” I’m trying to create for myself.
Thank you for redirecting me to that very amusing letter. It’s nice to see culture gaining momentum in blogland.
some people can bring class and culture to anything. and then there’s me.
i’m glad you enjoyed it.
