Tuesday Loseday: Man Drawer

Its funny because it is true. And funnier because of his accent.



Do you have a man drawer? A (wo)man drawer? A junk drawer?  I sure do.

And so the lion fell in love with the lamb.

One hot August day, my purse started singing the tarantella. I frantically dug through my knock-off Longchamp as to not miss my mom's call.  Success.  Here is a snippet from the conversation:

Mum: Danya?

Me: Yes.

Mum: Rufus is half human.

Me: Huh?  I thought he was half Jack Russell.

Mum: Wait, wait...let me explain: he loves listening to Edward play the piano.

Me: We don't have a piano.

Mum: I know that. But Edward does.

Me: Who is Edward?

Mum: Edward Cullen! The vampire! I'm watching Twilight.  Rufus is fixated on the film right now.  He loves watching Edward play.

Me: Well, he does have very refined taste, I suppose.

Mum: Wait til you see it.  I dvr-ed the movie.  Put it on the next time you are here.

So I did exactly that.


Turns out...she was right.  So long as Edward is on the screen, he won't look away...

Tuesday Mayhem

Kate and I fell in love with Dean Winters when he was portraying Ryan O'Reily on HBO's Oz.   Ryan was a sociopath with breast cancer, and Winters played him perfectly.

I haven't seen his work as Johnny Gavin on FX Network's Rescue Me, nor Dennis Duffy on NBC's 30 Rock, but I'm sure he was friggin awesome.

In 1999, he was on Sex and the City.

In 2010, he was selected to portray "Mayhem" in an Allstate insurance advertising campaign.

In 2011, he joined this wolfpack.

I'll fry green tomatoes, cover them with marinated crab meat, and smother that shit in bernaise.

I met my roommate on craigslist.  And despite warnings from my family about waking up in a tub of ice and no kidneys, I couldn't be happier living with JG and pup, Finnleigh.

However....

The. BEST.  Craigslist post.  Ever.  Is highlighted here by Refinery29.

My favorite part:
"I'll...cook for you. That's right! My dad is a chef and taught me everything there is to know about cooking Southern Cajun cuisine. I'll fry green tomatoes, cover them with marinated crab meat and smother that shit in Bearnaise. EVERY. GODDAMN. NIGHT. Don't eat meat? That's fucking FANTASTIC! I'll make a zucchini and yellow squash carpaccio that will knock your fucking socks off."

I don't want to live with this kid, but I do want to be friends.  Bearnaise every night?  Sounds like an approved wolfpack application to me.

The greatest scam in history.

We can plank if we want to. We can leave your friends behind.

This is one of my boyfriends, Teddy.  He is 3.  And a master at planking.  I want to be more like him when I grow up.

Consider me Miles Davis

Today I have make to remarks at a really scary meeting. 

I'm so scared, in fact, that I might pee my pants.

Kinda like Ernie.
