Hi everyone. On Monday (tomorrow) I’m hanging out at Chris’s blog:
The Afternoon Break. I’m so flattered that he asked to interview me. You see, I’m a huge fan of his and I’ll tell you why.
The first post I read of his was “Being An Adult Is Boring, Let’s Go Eat Lollies.” Was that kismet or what? So then I read a few more of his hilarious stuff such as his first Thumbtack Thursday post. It was a random collection of things he experienced that week, like slipping on a piece of ham. And I like how Chris sees the humor even in typical annoyances, like IKEA’s return policy.
So after reading and guffawing through alot of his posts, I told Husband Jace, it’s weird because if I were an Australian guy in my 20’s – and funnier, I’d actually be this guy Chris – because we think alike about certain things. Jace kinda squirmed at the thought of me being a guy in my 20’s and quickly changed the subject like a manly man would.
So pop on over to The Afternoon Break. Do me a favor and try to stay awake while reading my responses to his questions. And if you can answer the following, then you’ll be my Best Friend FOREVER, which is really how long I plan to live:
“How Can You Tell If I Really Like You?”
HINT: The answer is embedded in the interview. Sorry – I forgot to say that. Tee hee.

If I were 130 lb Italian man who was 21 years old, I’d be half the man I am now! I looked for your interview and could not find it. As for your question, it depends on if you are talking about the real face to face people you meet, or if you are talking about the blog/facebook world. In the blog facebook world, I would say that you like a person if you repeatedly comment on their blog or accept them into your facebook world. Also, I think you are more free with your humor involved in your commenting.

Hi Otin: Lol – “half the man”. Couldn’t find my interview? Okay, say it with me: “TOMORROW…Monday…” heheheh.
Well, without you having read the interview YET, that’s a very good answer. But – (insert Family Feud buzzer sound here)! Gotta wait, buddy, and marinate in the suspense overnight.
Re: my humor/commenting – I think so, but I don’t know why. Maybe in a post I stiffen up because I feel like I have to make sense to everyone who reads it. Whereas, in commenting, I only have to make sense to the one I’m talking to (?) Huh? Wha?
Otin, why you gotta mess with me on a Sunday afternoon? Lol.
You like my sunglasses? I just figured out how to do that. Such a newb.

ReformingGeek and Otin: I forgot to mention that the answer to that question is in tomorrow’s interview. (I’m still a newb at this.)

I’m new to this also, I have about 100 days of pc experience.
See, I wasn’t the only one that was confused. I didn’t read the Monday part, I thought the big writing was the start of the post! Did you read those posts?

Marissa, I’m a first time visitor to your blog.
I follow “The Afternoon Break” and saw the post about your interview, so I decided to check out your blog.

The Constant Complainer: Thanks for stopping by! I went over to your blog too. It’s good to know there’s a safe place for me to rant unabashedly about stuff without getting thrown into the pokey.
Old School: Thanks – it was fun. LOL. I’d give up my nap for you, which automatically puts you on my BFF list!

That was great, Marissa. And now I must lie down and nap. Like the poet, Byron, once said, “‘tis all about napping and more napping.” At least, I think it was Byron.

Alantru: Lord Byron, a great napper. Yep – I’ve got napping down to a science. It’s just something I never outgrew as a baby I guess. Either that or I was a cat in a past life…

We’re trying to get out to NC; my daughter’s stationed there. We were out in SC (Hilton Head) last April. Hated the big spiders I came across. They were Schwarzenegger-size! Must be the humidity?
Hot wings are my favorite appetizers!

Marissa,
Great interview! Since the co-founder of MySpace is stepping down(article in today’s Daily News), I think you would make a wonderful replacement and revitalize their network!
Q – “How Can You Tell If I Really Like You?”
A – “If I give up my nap for them. “
