Wednesday Weirdness: The "Ex" Files

1. When your relationships end, are you the instigator of the breakup or the recipient?

It depended on who it was I broke up with. One was definitely me, I just reached a point where I knew there wasn't a future for myself and Tom. Six months after I met Luis, and then six months after that, I moved in with him. That was almost eighteen years ago - 1 October 1990 we moved in together. Wow.

With Butch, well, Joe scared him. Joe... well... we had been growing apart. He ended it, but it was what I wanted. Peter was great, but I thought we were just friends with benefits. I found out years later he hadn't thought that. How funny.

2. Do you save things from your ex, or get rid of them? If you save them, how? If you trash them, how?

I don't know if I've anything left from any of my former relationships, except photos. I never trashed anything that I was given that way, but over time, I have probably parted with other things. And I am not one to do that anyway.

3. Describe your favorite ex?

My favourite ex? I suppose it was Peter Feld. He has a great sense of humour. One time I was telling him how my mother told me that all men consider their vehicles to be extensions of their penises and Peter said, "I wrecked my pecker six times?!" That was really funny.

Just the other day, I was thinking about Bitch, a past boyfriend I haven't thought of in years. Many, many years. Butch played guitar for a punk band that I met through a friend of mine in Passaic. Butch was around 6'5" and gentle and so good looking. We had a great time together. He came after Joe and Joe kind of scared him off.

4. Do you consider a friend's ex off limits?

No, why would that matter? Not that it has come up.

5. Have you ever had sex with an ex? Why?

Not once they became an ex.

6. If you had a choice between spending the rest of your life with your worst ex-boyfriend/ex-girlfriend, or your HS Nemisis, who would you choose?

My HS nemisis. What is that? Well, I don't know who is my worst ex, but they were not bad to me. Joe probably was the worst in some ways, because he was addicted to crack. I was super-pissed off when I found out he'd gone back out on a binge. He also had a criminal record - an extensive one. All the cops in Pompton Plains knew him. And they all told me I was too nice to be with him. But in all honesty, Joe was never, ever abusive or at all bad to me. He definitely had his issues, but not with me.

7. Would you ever create a YouTube video or a website celebrating your exes' flaws?

I would never create a YouTube video. And certainly not one like that. I don't have any problems with my exes. I loved them all in their times. But I'm writer, not a filmer. (Well, not a video filmer. Photos I do take - many, many of them!

Interesting Aftermath a From Season Five of "MasterChef"

Do I agree with this? You will have to read it first and decide for yourself. I had long since made up my mind before finding this article. MasterChef Season 5 Fixed: Courtney Lapresi Won Finale After Getting Preferential Treatment – Former Stripper Favoritism BY  STORMY ELIZABETH  ON SEPTEMBER 23, 2014 "They say if you can’t take the heat, you should get out of the kitchen, but what if you like it hot? If you’ve been watching  MasterChef this season 5 , you may have noticed that one contestant in particular seems to  be “winning” challenges  when her dishes don’t seem to be quite up to it.  Courtney Lapresi  has been billed as an “aerial dancer” on the show. So what exactly is that, you ask? It’s a fancy word for stripper. You may term what she does as burlesque, but nekked is nekked and she takes off her  clothes  when she dances, so you have to call them as you see them. Plus is it really...

The Longairc-Green Family

This is a family that was on Nanny 911 , the precursor to Supernanny , which airs on Wednesday nights. While Supernanny is a better production and leaves out some of the dopey American-isms of stupidity (such as the opening scene with a much older nanny head whose television showing the family and their issues turns around into a painting on the wall), this show has its value. These families are clueless or don't bother to try and definitely need help. This family is an exception in that the mother couldn't care less what the monsters do and will do anything to mollify them. The father is more consistent and definitely takes a much more disciplinary stance, but the mother undermines it at every step of the way. The two boys are so unbelievably rude, I'd've killed them where they stood. The little girl only wanted a moment of attention and was not doing anything negative, and the mother was awful to her. The nanny, Nanny Stella, spent the first day observing. When she s...

Shocking!

I always open my day at work by starting up my various programs that I'll bounce back and forth between throughout the insanity that is my normal workday. And they are always in the same order: Internet Outlook Microsoft Excel Microsoft Word The timekeeping program, GenPro, is always running. This is not me being unbelievably anal or just a little OCD, this is logic. I know excatly where everything is. It's just good organisational skills. When I open Outlook it is almost entirely for the e-mail. Yes, I do know how to use all of Outlook (well, 80% of it, any way, but since I use my belovèd Franklin Covey Time Management system (the physical book, not the electronic solution), I only use Outlook for e-mail. What is so shocking, you may ask? Be patient, I'm getting to that. I open the Internet and the default page is Wikipedia, in English. I happen to love that site and skim over whatever interesting things it may have, such as: Today's Featured Article The word thou was...
