About Me
OMG, my friend Bubbly did the funniest thing. I went to her site and she had written an about me ( meaning her ) post. I asked her to do one of those for me as I was too lazy. And she did, in a comment, here it is...
OK... here you are, you can just copy and paste.... (OMG I'm a good friend).
Hi, for any new readers I thought I would post a new "about me" here
to fill you in on what a lucky person you have become by becoming a
part of this site.I'm Jewish. Maybe I'm not a devout Jew, but I am... I like the 8
days of Hanukkah, because I like the presents and I think the menorah
is pretty.... and who am I kidding? The food rocks.I was married to a guy for along time, we had a couple of kids who
are awesome. But the guy and I decided we were better as roommates
instead of partners... so we divorced and he stays in my house with
me... yes, its weird, but it works. He cooks and buys me dinner and
fixes things.I have two kids, a boy and a girl. My girl is totally cool. She's
been all over the world with different programs, Israel and Africa to
name two. She's self motivated and pretty talented girl. I have faith
that she will become someone important to the world. She gets awesome
grades also.The boy... he's adorable. He is also very smart and motivated, which
leads me to think that even though the ex and I don't get along well as
partners, we raise some pretty class A kids. Matty is attending college
for the first time this year, and I miss him terribly. He is promised
to the daughter of my Xanga friend, Bubblysox... although he doesn't
know it yet.. but him and her daughter are going to make beautiful
babies with gorgeous teeth.I use Xanga as my venting area, and frankly, I'm hilarious, everyone
thinks so. I bring humor to the lives of people less fortunate. I have
lots of friends on here, and I cherish them all because without them
who else would listen to me?I quit smoking and sometimes I think I could sell myself for a
cigarette...but I've been good and haven't done that or smoked at all.I was a wild child in my younger years, but those days are gone, and
I rarely think of drifting back to those ways.... oh wait.. please
don't refer to the post before this... lol.I love writing songs. I use someone elses melodies, but they don't
care... they've already used them... and I kick ass at doing so.. so
much so that I've been offered money for this skill before and it is
how I live this life of luxury I do... although I haven't posted one
lately... hmmmm....I work with hoodlums and thugs all day, in a juvenile facility, and
those little rascals give me lots to blog about. Not to mention the
idiots I work with. But its a job, and its better than working the
Quickie Mart with Apu.Anyways, this is all I can think of for now. Feel free to ask me anything else you might want to know.
She did a great job, but I need to edit a couple things. I just want to make it clear that I live with expunge for financial reasons. I wouldn't choose him for a roommate, in fact I prefer to live alone. He does cook for me and fixes things, but I wish he would leave after he does that.
I'm not sure I'm hilarious, I give a chuckle now and then, and that's fun.
As for the song writting thing, I can do that pretty fast, but getting paid? Really? where? who? Show me the money baby!!!!!!!!!
My kids are perfect, but the only one who calls Matt, Matty, is her ( I think that's cute.) And I don't think I miss him terribly, I love being an empty nester. I don't miss the bickering or the mess. And I don't miss trying to force conversation. I much prefer the spying method when it comes to finding out how my kids are doing.
I do like food, but Jewish food, not so much. Latkes are pretty good though, and I'll miss those. Passover food makes me gag though. Except for Matzo Ball soup, and I think that might be out for me this year.
Speaking of which, she forgot to mention my newly diagnosed Diabetes, which I am sure I will bringing up all the time now, since it sucks.
Other than that, like I said she did a great job. And it shows she knows me and pays attention, and who could ask for a better friend than that! And she took the time to do this! Wow.
Any other questions, refer to her. Just kidding, ask away, I'm a semi open book.

Makes interesting reading and is also a great tribute to you.
There's much to be said about the spying method. Where is Matt-y going to college?
That was cute! She's a good friend for sure.
That was great!
yes -- hilarious is the word! you just honestly say whatever's on your mind, commenting on the weirdness of this world ...
She did a great job. Nice frienship.
Jewish people, and also Arabic people, have a high rate of diabetes. I'm lucky I don't have it myself with that ethnic background.
This makes me wonder if there is any such thing as dietetic humentaschen.
I doubt anyone knows me that well. Says something about your openness.
Dear Laura,
She did a real good job describing you. I think you're more hilarious than chuckle prone. I sometimes find myself laughing out loud at some of the things you write.
I like your blog layouts too. Always humorous.

Life's so much easier when the book is open.
Yeah, your blog makes me smile.
I love this! I went over and subbed and befriended her! You are precious!
ah yes, Bubbly rocks... I love her. and I, for one, think you are hilarious.
Right with you on the diabetes sucking thing. Did you know (recent knowledge gained) that the spouse of a diabetic is 10% more likely to end up with the disease too! Expunge might should leave after he fixes things. You can use that fact for encouragement.
Diabetes is a bummer, but it can be managed.
You are often unintentionally hilarious. Even coming up with the name expunge is funny.
Bubbly knows you quite well. At first I thought you wrote that part until she called Matt Matty...that just didn't sound like anything you've ever said.
awww loved it. I think i
actually needed that to see what I knew and find out what i
didn't.
lol that was a really comical intro by ur friend... a good chuckle but really interesting about your life really
You sound like a very interesting person, I wish I could meet you-lol.
@PrincessFiveandDime -
This is weird, I have never had this option before. I'm not sure I like it.
What an awesome xanga friend you have there! She knows you well!
I have a childhood friend named Matthew, whom I still call Matty just to irritate him and watch his jaw clench...lol! His wife LOVES it! She's evil like me!
Sorry to hear about the diabetes.
I know a great place where you can order suger free chocolates! And candy!
Sorry to hear about the diabetes... especially at your age. I thought only middle aged Italians got diabetes. I have had some pretty frightening bouts with dizziness because of that but I'm a guy and I would think it's worse for a woman because of all the other whormonal changes going on.
@vexations - I'm sure your wife knows you, right?
@Isismoon -
He is going to Indiana University
@jessp505again -
I'm glad you learned something about me ha ha
@madamzephyrus -
Awww thank you : )
@LetMeGoToo -
Thank you so much
@forwhomthebelsentolls -
Really I wish I would have known that when I was carb loading
@nicumom - I'm not as cool in person. Kind of boring
OK OK... so I took a little creative license with the "about you"... but you probably COULD see your little songs if you really tried... I mean.. they come up with little jingles and things they use in commercials all the time... I think you should explore this avenue.
I knew you want Expunged out, but I was trying to be nice. GOSH.
If I had a little boy named Matt, I would totally call him Matty... and since hes going to be my SIL soon, I'm calling him that. Hes part mine now, right?
@bubblysox -
Actually he ha s a friend ( a girl ) not his girl friend who calls him matty too, so he would probably let you.
You are definitely hilarious! I love reading your posts, they always make me laugh. I think you have a really cool sense of the absurdities of the world. I bet your kids are a lot of fun too. I'm sorry about the diabetes diagnosis but I'm glad you found out before some really serious complication cropped up. Good luck with the new eating plan.
You're a fucking prick.
Venting at awkward times happens to screwed up people. So what. I have come to believe you're more screwed up.
