childcare needed
looking for a responsible and dedicated person to babysit my two children during the week. you will be needed monday through friday, from 7 AM to 4:30 PM. email me at ***********@comcast.net and we can talk about pay. DO NOT EMAIL ME UNLESS YOU HAVE REFERENCES
From Me to **********@comcast.net:

Hi there! Are you still looking for someone to fill your babysitter position?

Mike

From **********@comcast.net to Me:

yes i am. please send your info and any past expereince you have.

From Me to **********@comcast.net:

Actually, I am not the one applying for the position. I run a rehabilitation program for good people who are trying to enter society again, and have a few candidates who I think would be able to watch your kids. They will work for a much cheaper rate than a professional babysitter, but will still deliver professional service.

Mike

From **********@comcast.net to Me:

what kind of rehab program do you run? injured people or something like that? if you are talking about drug addicts than forget it.

From Me to **********@comcast.net:

Absolutely not! Don’t worry, I would never even dare consider having drug addicts watch your children. They are children for pete’s sake!

My rehabilitation program is called Kons For Kids. We help get ex-convicts back on the right track again, by giving them second chances that they deserve. We help them experience the joy of working with children and helping the community. It is often difficult for these ex-cons to get jobs after being released from a correctional facility, but it is a requirement while being on parole.

We have seen lots of success with the program. Most of our clients are extremely satisfied with their ex-con. Despite the negative image that people like to give to ex-cons, they really are loving, caring people.

I have two potential clients in your area, if you are interested. Here is a little info about them:

Derek Schillinger – Derek is a 43-year-old male from the Delaware County area. Just released after serving 17 of 25 years for two counts of third-degree murder. Derek loves to laugh, read, and enjoys long walks on the beach.

Timothy Beecher – Tim is a 36-year-old male who was just released after serving 12 years of his 15 year sentence for armed robbery and assault with a deadly weapon. Tim was released on good behavior and is ready to get back into the real world. Tim enjoys working with kids, and has six kids of his own with various women in the tri-state area. Before his conviction, Tim was a mid-level cocaine dealer. He knows a lot about economics and business, and would be able to give your children a great education while watching them.

I look forward to working with you. Please let me know which person you were interested in, and I will give their parole officer a call.

Thanks!

Mike

From **********@comcast.net to Me:

wow. kons for kids? that is the stupidest thing ive ever heard!!! who the fuck would let a murderer watch their kids!

From Me to **********@comcast.net:

KFK is a very respectable program. I’m guessing from your apparent issues with murderers, you aren’t interested in Derek. Before you completely rule him out, I would like to point out that he was convicted of third degree murder, which is the most harmless kind of murder. Third degree murder isn’t premeditated murder, and it usually just accidental murder. I talked to Derek, and he said he didn’t mean to kill the guy, he just wanted to hurt him. Please give him another chance.

If you don’t want him watching your kids, I’ll understand. Should I tell Tim you are interested instead?

Mike

From **********@comcast.net to Me:

i dont want tim or derek or any of the other lunatics you try to pass off as babysitters! murder is murder it doesnt matter which way you put it now leave me the fuck alone!

From Me to **********@comcast.net:

I already told Tim that he got the job. Please don’t make me have to give him the bad news.

From Me to **********@comcast.net:

Are you still there? It has been three days, and Tim wants to know when he can start working again.

From Me to **********@comcast.net:

Well, I hope you are happy. I had to tell Tim that you weren’t willing to give him a second chance. Tim got so angry that he tried to stab me with a fountain pen. Needless to say, that was considered a violation of his parole and he has been sent back to his correctional facility to serve the remainder of his sentence. You essentially ruined Tim’s life, after he was ready to get back on the right track. You are a horrible person.

Obey Henry! visit the U.K.

My cameo on The Guild

Earlier this summer, Felicia Day and The Guild held a contest for The Worst Guild Candidate Ever!  I entered the contest and was one of the winners!  When I was at Blizzcon she told me that I was actually going to be on one of the episodes.  It was so exciting!  I am so proud to be on one of the episodes of such a terrific show!  You can find my full entry here:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJ9N4Sf5chs

I have to give huge props to my friend Xanar who helped me write this and the Over the Hill Gang raiding team who lent me not only their critical eye, but their names as well.  I hope you enjoy it!

International Talk like a Pirate day

This is one of my most favorite days in the whole year!  One, I get to say Arrrrrggggg so much that my husband wants to gag me.  Also World of Warcraft has tons of pirate activites around Booty Bay.

If you are having problems talking like a pirate, you can visit sites like http://www.yarr.org.uk/talk/

And then I get to tell my favorite joke.  If you are in need of a good joke you can always use my old standby:

A pirate walks into a bar and one of the ole drunks asks him why he has a steering wheel in his britches.

The old pirate says, “Arrg, I not be knowing matey, but it be drivin’ me nuts!”

Flying – The joys of airports

travel

I am normally one who loves to travel, but today was one of those days that I wish I were at home in my pajamas.  First, I was 2 minutes late in checking in…2 MINUTES!  This means my bag had to go on the flight 1 hour after mine, but then my flight was 10 minutes late.  Do you think I got any compensation out of that? Noooooooooo…

Then, I get to sit beside one of the stinkiest man I have ever smelled.

I did get to try the inflight wifi though.  It was actually really cool and fast.  I pulled out my trusty netbook and started surfing.  Yay for $10 tweets and facebook updates!

Grandma’s Dead – and other soothing postcards…

Introduction except from the book Grandma’s Dead: Breaking Bad News with Baby Animals -

Afraid to tell your girlfriend her ass looks big? Need to let your neighbors know you’re a registered sex offender? Why not let a lovable baby bunny in a basket do it for you?

This book softens the blow of even the harshest news, saving anxiety and time.

At the AIE Texas Christmas Party, my friend Doug got this book as a White Elephant, now that he is leaving for parts unknown, he passed it on to me and I have posted a few of the good ones here.  The rest I have put on my Flickr account.

Website o’ the Day

bravewomanwoot6blWoot.com is a really cool website that give some incredible bargins on all kinds of different items.

Woot.com is an online store and community that focuses on selling cool stuff cheap. It started as an employee-store slash market-testing type of place for an electronics distributor, but it’s taken on a life of its own.

Although they do have some great bargins, there are some things you should remember before buying:

  • Only 1 item is offered each day (24 hours), once it is sold out or the day ends, that item is no longer available
  • They sell both new and refurbished items, there is no return policy, so basically it is a crap shoot (some items may have MFG warranties)
  • This is all online and no customer support to speak of, thus, low prices
  • If you see the “I Want It Now” button, it means stock is going fast so if you want it, jump on it!

There is tons more information on their website, but I have talked with a couple of people who have bought items and I have gotten some pretty good reviews.  One friend says:

“Every new item I have bought has been golden, but you gotta beware of the refubs, I have gotten a couple of bad items.”

“Great prices on some really good wine!”

Their warehouse is located in Carroltton, TX, so for those of us in here in the Dallas area, that means we gets lootz fast!

Shoes!

When I was a Sr. in high school, my family went on a trip to San Francisco and I bought this pair of Converse style high tops that were a Victorian flower pattern and lace.  I was the hit at Farmington HS in New Mexico, well at least in my own mind.  I wish I had a picture of them because they were so gorgeous!

I still love funky shoes, but in my “corporate” world, it doesn’t work as well.  I can just see the “old” utility guys faces when I walk in with these on:

Skull Shoes!!!!
