Welcome to the Criffs of Insanity! She's crass, she's loud, she's obnoxious....but she's got a neat & tidy linen closet. These are the rantings of Keebler Jen...careful...watch out for hot lava.
who am i? i'm a mom (got 5), a girlfriend (got 1), an ex-wife (got 1), a sister (got 2), a hell of a friend (got a few) & a should-have-been southern belle (will have a plantation one day...). i'm what you would call compulsive about my linen closet & i have an unnatural attachment to my cat fred.
....now, most of you in the blogosphere know that d. challener & i are an item. like we really hide it from public view. lol!! we are best friends (since 87) & just so happen to be afianced. cohabitors, roomies, cuddle bugs. you get the idea. ;)
anywho....i know that my opinion is a biased one. but i can (on most occasions) give a completely unbiased opinion of practically anything. just ask my kids. sometimes i can be brutally honest. i've been told that its because i'm a sagittarius. (finally something that i can't blame on my mother...lol) the archer has the tendency to be blunt & to the point....and usually wind up with either the left, right or (as its happened to me before) both feet planted firmly within our teeth. i've stepped on more toes than i can count & i'm sure i've bruised an ego or two in my short tenure here on the 3rd rock from the sun.
i am the first editor on any of dale's pieces. i am also the most sharpest of his critics.
if its crap, i tell him so. if it needs tweaking, i tell him so. if it needs to be retooled, i tell him so. if its excellent just the way it is, i tell him so. but usually in a hushed voice, so as not to inflate his ego; it cannot be larger than mine, cause after all....it's all about me. (sorry twin.)
so here's the deal-io, the low-down, the haps, the 411.
being an avid reader as well as a semi-devout, quasi-practicing roman catholic -- this story had me laughing my ass off. and i don't let my laugh or my ass go for a lot....well, not anymore. this piece is wonderfully written & terribly funny. i can just imagine dale sitting up on a cloud, way off to the side....doing some angel watching. he's got an incredible knack for becoming his character.
i giggle everytime i think about poor basil.
but you should read the story to find out why i giggle.
please give my sweetie a look-see. he'd appreciate it & i'd be ever grateful.
