A few months ago this guy that I know gave me a “Dating Kit”. In it there was a Little Black Book. I thought it was cute and would be good for writing notes and such since I am a very forgetful person.
Well, it turned out to be more of a journal. Not a diary; I didn’t write personal things, dreams, etc. I wrote interesting thoughts that occurred to me throughout the day. Sometimes I would see something funny and it would make me think of a mini-”article” I could write. Or I would see something that would make me go off on a rant. Whatever the case, I would write it in my Little Black Book, which I had created a new cover for featuring a collage of different magazine clippings because I didn’t think it would be appropriate to have a Little Black Book and that’s not what I used it for anyway.
So these little articles actually turned out to be really funny, if I do say so myself. One day I was reading one of them to a friend and she said, “You should start a blog.” And I said, “You’re right. I should.” So I did. Here it is. Enjoy my cynicism and sarcasm (which I guess is kind of the same thing).
Enjoy!

Hey, I got one of those dating kits…did yours come with mints and the five steps to dating? Wait – did I give you that kit?

If this is Marty then yes, you did give me that kit. And look at the magnificence that it spawned. (And you probably thought I just threw it away or something.)

No, this is Erica, who gave it to Marty, who in turn gave it to you.

Oh okay well then I guess you did kind of give it to me. Who gave it to you? (I guess you don’t have to answer that.)
