You never call, you never write… you just move.

Friday, May 30th, 2008

Wow, got a fun post out of my former blogger-days courtesy of Wayback Machine for you. Seriously, enter in an URL for some old-fashioned web design horrors!
With a lot of breakups, the “It’s not you, it’s me” phrase rolls endlessly off the tongue. And other times… well, you get nothing. Here’s a (not) fun breakup [...]

Man vs. Woman & the Boob-touching Thing

Thursday, May 29th, 2008

A few weeks ago I was beyond-my-limit frustrated with not being able to get my Mac connected to the u-verse wireless in the house. (Note: still. does not. work. Thanks, Apple).
When the boyfriend came into my office, seeing the Apple desktop to my right with thirty Internet connection and AirPort windows open, the laptop on my [...]

Inspiration for Your Day!

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

It has been far too long since I have motivated you, dear Internets.
Here are a few things that are helping me get through learning CSS, WordPress, FTP-ing and what-the-hell-is-Twitter?:
Esteban is trying to recharge the “Good Guys” with: ANYTHING remixed by Kleerup,  ”I Kissed a Girl” by Katy Perry, “I Love to Move in Here (Crookers [...]

Countdown to S&TC

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

Today’s corny blog challenge for all you hard-core Sex & the City fans is to choose your favorite episode.
Mine is “Hop, Skip & a Week” from Season 6. That split second when Carrie realizes Burger dumped her after she “let” him come back into her life the previous night, is truly a heart-stopping, can-I-breathe-yet moment. [...]

Happy belated Mother-effin…

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

How sweet it is to get double-trouble exploring the city of Cleveland Saturday afternoon. Let the Mom & me adventures commence.
Being all consumed by big birthday bashes (and free hamburgers) this year, my mom and I had a Saturday afternoon to ourselves to gleefully celebrate a belated Mother’s Day and that “adding a one to [...]

Penis Tuesday

Tuesday, May 27th, 2008

Something a little different this week for all you penis lovers: I’ve decided to declare a Dick of the Month.
This DICK is the driver of the silver Mitsubishi Eclipse with the license number DEN 3870. Thank you, ass munch for thinking you had enough clearance to get around me to the left lane in front [...]

Won’t you take me to… Swingtown, PLEASE?!

Friday, May 23rd, 2008

When I was younger, I was a huge fan of the show “Married with Children.” While on one of our weekend-with-my-father visitation schedules, my sisters and I turned the channel to Fox for the new episode. The TV was instantly shut down by my grandma with a stern warning not only reminding us that television [...]

Shopping List

Wednesday, May 21st, 2008

We had to pick up a few items at Walgreens:
Ultra-ribbed condoms
The Trojan vibrating (cock) ring
Tingling and warming lotions sampler package
And…
A large squeeky Mallard duck dog toy
Cuz you know, you don’t want the cashier looking at you all weird.
Apparently the drug store in itself was exciting enough, as we picked up some Arby’s, finished American Idol, [...]

Penis Tuesday

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

Since a family tragedy takes me offline both emotionally and physically for a couple days, just a quick vid for your Penis Tuesday fun (NSFW!! and it's in German):
Puppetry of the Penis
Thanks to an anonymous reader!

Bathroom Break

Monday, May 19th, 2008

Sometimes saying the wrong thing is better than saying nothing at all. (Certainly making me laugh is better than me feeling ignored). And sometimes the action of a small hug means something bigger than you can ever imagine.
I tolerated the thought process for this post while en route to the woman's restroom (and scratched [...]

Congrats!

Thursday, May 15th, 2008

Residents of California: YEEEEEAAAAH!!!!!
Winner of America's Next Top Model: WOOHOO!
Oil control lotion that actually WORKS on Mel's face: Holy hell, and I need another $80 to add to the collection.

When one doors closes, another one opens, just to hit you on the ass again on your way out.

Thursday, May 15th, 2008

With the completion by resignation of Marc Dann from public office, we move on to more prominent public figures.. such as your trusted Cuyahoga County Recorder, Patrick O'Malley. Wait… who? Oh yeah, that town drunk who had that little nasty divorce battle with VICKI! a few years back.
In a somewhat hushed move, O'Malley allegedly [...]

Penis Tuesday

Tuesday, May 13th, 2008

Holy, Land of Four-hour Hard-ons, Batman!
Priaprism is the serious medical condition of having an erection for way longer than necessary (but just about as long as I could handle it). A persistent, painful, four-hour-long erection, mind you. And by the sound of it, fellas, it doesn't sound as if you can just tuck-it-in-your-belt-and-forget-about-it.
Doesn't [...]

The Mel Hangover finally ends…

Monday, May 12th, 2008

It was my birthday celebration weekend. Now aging gracefully and maturing to my ripening season, I figure I could handle my liquor a bit better. Rightfully, I’d like to “man up.” This not having the ability to drink without a hangover for three days needs to cease-and-desist. This is why Mel had the Best Weekend [...]

Something smells funny…

Saturday, May 10th, 2008

Most have heard that smell is closely tied to memory, but did you know there is also a part of smell that leads to a little more bedroom action? I've long heard the propensity for men to be attracted to women wearing certain scents; for example, vanilla (does my new Vanilla Cupcake body wash from [...]

I don’t know what kind of crack they’re brewing in my coffee…

Friday, May 9th, 2008

but for the second time this week, I realized I put my underwear on inside-out.

They only want you when you’re 17; when you’re 21 31, you’re no fun.

Friday, May 9th, 2008

I have gone and turned 31. It's not really a bad age; 30 was an amazing year for me. A lot of what I set out to do this year, I have accomplished, and I feel at peace with my successes. I am content that the motivation I felt will not diminish after this new [...]

A few thoughts on humanity… and my mother.

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

If there was a ever a question as to the reason we are the "fattest city in America," then you need to click here: NewsNet5 Live Video at Papa John's UPDATE: OK, fans are waiting FIVE HOURS in line for a 23-cent pizza. Seems to me that time is much more valuable than saving a [...]

Mel de Mayo

Wednesday, May 7th, 2008

I second the sentiment my friend made about having a diet entirely based on Mexican food. Even with an early leftovers lunch, I'm still skipping around the office singing "I Love Mexican." And no, my boyfriend's name is not Eduardo.
Last night we incorporated Ladies' Night, "Seis de Mayo" and my birthday celebrations all into [...]

I be real a smart people!

Tuesday, May 6th, 2008

A few news outlets were highlighting the latest trend in dating sites — for Intelligent People only. Not surprisingly, an 18-question IQ test is required upon acceptance to find other smart folks. Intrigued, I took the test. This is what I received:

I never claim to call myself an IQ test whiz or anything (as [...]
