Firecrotch, But for Real!

Image
This week menses commenced and the fire department came a knockin’—yes, in that order, but not to hose the aching, cramping, burning loins. They are two separate items. I spent a week in pre-menses hell and finally the dams broke Wednesday early in the afternoon. In fact, my sister and I began menstruating at the same exact time. She wouldn’t be amused that I’m sharing that bit of trivia, but she’ll forgive me. Happy Period, Katie and Kerri! Anyhochie… My sister and I met in front of our buildinks at 4ish so we could run a few errands. I walked out of my aptula and smelled/saw smoke, and lots of it wafting from the back of the building through the roof. Hmm, I thought. That’s curious. It smells like burnt popcorn, or does it smell like hair and I’m having a massive heart attack in 5, 4, 3, 2…?! I flew open the front door and asked Ker to come inside and tell me if she saw/smelled smoke, too. She walked in and winced, nauseated by the smell and gagging on the smoke. We still weren’t co

Thank you, MonkeyMucker

Yo, Left Eye, WTF?!

Police: Forsyth Man Hit, Killed Girlfriend With Truck I know this is a total bubbsie post, so if Bubbalish wants to cross-post, please post . It's a postable I had to blog. Mark ran over his girlfriend with a half-ton truck and killed her, yet he was arrested for a DUI and out on bail for a mere $1,375? Uh-ha. I see. He whacked his girlfriend, would that be the "serious" felony charge they reference in the article? Or the DUI? Are you mothah fuckin' kiddin' me?! I find this deeply disturbing and appalling that a man who violently and deliberately murders his girlfriend is out on bail, and for under 2K. Okay, now onto the left eye. We all see it, it's not something one can miss. It's a rather expressive, Quasimotto wandering left eye. Can we all agree that it's a bit challenging on the peepers, that one might need a minute to take it in? Okay, great. Here's what I'm having difficulty with: He went and found himself a bird who loved him for

Trouble in Deville!

Image
Trouble DeVille , A Southern Fried Crime Noir Novel by the fabulous and famous MonkeyMucker . Simian Stud's debut novel is a must read. I thoroughly enjoyed it and I'm not even a noireyish chick. The boy knows how to spin a yarn. You read his blog, yes? Great, you already know that he's a most excellent writer. He only has a few copies left, I suggest you haul ass over to his blog asssssssssappy and buy yourself a copy before they're all gone. MonkeyMucker, are we working on our second novel? "Yes, Katie" is the proper response.

Subject: I Just LOVE the IRS

Image
Dear IRS; Thank you so, so much for taking the time to read my letter. I know how slammed you are launching thorny, protruding objects into our rectums, by the way, we love that . It feels so good on top of inflation, the high price of gas, job insecurities, rising rents, impending foreclosures, oh, and overwhelming terror that McFuckain might actually become president. Yeah, it truly is the best of times. Anyway. Imagine my surprise when my accountant e-stalked me to let me know that after doing my taxes it turns out that I owe you the equivalent of a brand spankin' new medium sized car or a down payment on a modest house. Please don't think I'm ungrateful--I would hate for you to feel that way. I am grateful, really , even though 50% of my income went towards justifiable write-offs. I super love you guys and can't thank you enough for the gift you've given me. Hey, quick question, can I get a free meal with this debt? Loving, Katie

Oooh-Oooh-Oooh, Cherry Popping Dish

The Pilcrow Lit Fest " Five With " Katie has been posted. Check it out, yo. I just popped my literary festival interview cherry. In other Pilish dish, Pilcrow is on Twitter , twitterfriend them hard for the latest updates and such. Pilcrow is also accepting donations, so fabulous. We can put our love of all things literary where our mouths are and chalk up a few buckaroos. I know I'm way behind on my meemish detail. Let's not judge, tomorrow I'll start posting like nobody's bizola.

Ooh, Child

My site should be done in the next two-weeks and I am plotzarella squared. Jeff Zani is a magnificent designer and what he's putting together is off the mothah fuckin' hook. See the header of my blog? Check out the temporary About Katie page right here ... Didjya's see that header there? I KNOW, RIGHT?! Kid's amazing. His work makes me scream. I'm so excited, I can't stand it. Check out his work . If you need a website, or a logo, or a fabulous design, he is yo'man, yo. He's even MySpacing . e-Stalk him for work. Easy peasy. My book is coming together beee-uutifully. I will have some dishable news to spill in the next few weeks. We like positive things, don't we?! Yes, indeed we do. Off to read a few blogs before I meem myself into a heated frenzy.

Addictive YouTube Video, Chocolate Rain

My youngest brother, Nick, sent me a video called Chocolate Rain . It's so odd, and surreal, and strangely addictive. Watch, you'll see what I mean. PS: I am grossly behind on meeme detail. Fear not, it will get done today or tomorrow. Don't hate Jewgirl. Love a good meemish and ya's damn well know it.

This Week Can Suck My Dick

Image
This week started out curiously , not bad, not good, more like beige . I can live with beige, it's practical, efficient and sensible. Not all weeks are going to be fabulous , and, hi, I'm not a fucktard, I'll take beige over horrific any day . Right? Right. Sadly, the last few days of my beigey little week morphed, hard . Kind of like being tossed into the film "My Private Idaho" without the, but-the-seizures-feel-so-good , moments, and the exquisite, albeit creepy , " Reqium for a Dream", dream sequences. I was forced into wearing a, hello-clarice-muzzle and porn-ball-gag, so I wouldn't roar, "FUCK-YOU-FUCK-THIS-FUCK-EVERYTHING." " SUCK-MY-MOTHAH'-FUCKIN-DICK." I'm a peenqueen, not a peenbasher, this we can awwwwl agree on, yes? Great. I need five minutes, please, to vent about one very specific peen, please, thank you. Peenestros e-stalked me twice. Three minutes later because I hadn't yet received or responde

Frannylish's Middle Name Meemish

Big non-sequitur post with a point... In my own Jewgirl way. I am OCD'ng myself into a frenzy with Twitter . I can't stop twittering myself (pun yourselves into a good shvitz, ga'head. I just gave ya's a beauuutiful set up). I did manage to tear myself away, but it was sooooooooo hard. I exercised. It was a busy day. I was so very busy with myself. I have many e-stalks to respond to. I realized something today, too, I love multi-tasking. I think it's hardwired into my DNA? Lately, I've been dishing with one of my BFF's about simplifying my life, something I want to do. I also love multi-tasking. I'm trying to figure out how to do both better . Frannylish posted about an organization called Black and Missing . Please read her post and support this endeavor- I'm so happy she posted about this. I dished with my youngest brother today. He's a great kid. He's also 21, so when he calls I ask, "Is everything okay? Are you in trouble? Do you ne

Oh, Oh, Oh, I Almost Forgot

Image
Today while dishing with my accountant's assistant, I asked, "Can I fax my tax dish over instead of dropping it off?" He said, "Oh, sure, honey, no problem. Who is this?" I said, "Katie Schwartz." He said, "Fabulous! Fax it on over, HARRY." Admittedly, I was perplexed and said, "I'm not Harry, I'm Katie Schwartz." I kid you not, he said, "Yes, I know, Harry." Jaw dropped, so like a dumb ass, I asked, "Is there someone in the office with you who thinks you're dishing with a Harry ?" He said, "No, it's just me." I was so fuckin' irritated, I said, "WELL, I'M NOT HARRY. I'M KATIE." And he said, "Yeah, I know." Is it fucktard Monday?! For the love.... Again, I asked, "Why do you keep calling me Harry?" He said, "I don't know." THAT MADE ME SCREAM. HOW HILAR IS THAT?! Now, I'm wondering, do I have a huskyish, maley voice? I thought I

Thrift Store Worker Returns 30K

Image
Read the story, it's short and afterwards read my Howard Cosellian response. If you think it's cunty, fine , fine , fine . "POMONA, Calif. - A thrift store worker in Southern California says she didn't think twice about returning $30,000 she found in donated clothing . Barbarita Nunez was sorting clothes on Tuesday at the Veterans Thrift Store when she found a small box. Inside was an envelope of cash. Nunez said at first she thought the money was fake. But just in case, she gave it to her supervisor. The money turned out to belong to a woman who had recently died. It was returned to her family, who gave Nunez a cash reward. Nunez said she will send some of the reward to Mexico so her mother can have an eye operation and will use the rest to buy a digital camera." If I found 30K in that situation, I admit it, I'd keep it, I would. I really would. What cracks me up is the cliche ending of the yarn. I'm just sayin' .

I was stuck in traffic behind this debacle. Oh, what debacle you ask? The fucking fake, stuffed, identical dogs trapped in the windows, gasping for fake air with their fake tongues hanging out of their fake mouths dripping fake drool. Fuck. Fuck. Mother Fuck .

IM'ng with Coco's Vagina

Image
Stunning. Non-sequitur of the day: I love watching things come to a boil, not metaphorically, literally, specifically water and coffee. This afternoon, I was logged onto Yahoo under my screen name, herecomescreepy and I got the strangest IM. CojynaAtLarge: Hey, Katie, are you there? HereComesCreepy: I am. Do I know you? CojynaAtLarge: Not intimately... unless of course you're.... as cold as ice . HereComesCreepy: Oh, like the Foreigner Song. You're as cold as ice, ya will learn to sacrifice ... blah, blah, blah.

What's a Girl to do?!

Image
We're so bullet pointing right now. It's my latest obsession yet again... And, wait, I'm in non-sequitur mode. I am OCD about looking for themes in my life, both positive and negative. Precipitated by my insatiable desire to unearth the origin of issues and answers to questions. I'm also a raging pain in my own ass and the ass of others. For such an ass driven bird, you'd think I'd love anal sex, but I don't. Go figure?! Have you noticed that as we get older, we have more days where we say, "Today was great, but," instead of "Today was great, period"? I need new bras and I am so not in the mood to go rack shopping. The hallways in the buildink I'm living in smell like mold. Creepy. Calling the slumlord on Monday to hock a chinek. I'm ovulating. Week was good, but... I'm so dull today. Forgive me. Tomorrow, I'll post something dishylish.
