This type of lapse in memory is almost show-off-y in its egregiousness. I blame motherhood. For more background, read question #3 <A HREF="http://boredhousewives.blogspot.com/2006/05/ask-bored-housewife-three-questions.html" REL="nofollow"><B>here</B></A>. So now I remember, and I'm going to try really, really hard to get some closure on that contest, I swear to god.<BR/><BR/>Essy... you're aware that word "unbookening" has "un" at the beginning of it? As in, "to remove"? There's something very wrong with that picture. For starters, it should be much larger so I can read the titles on the spines.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the Vidiotbox props, everyone. This is where I put on my pretentious Hollywood asshat, er, hat and say that Rusty and I have been dying to do a project together for <I>ages</I> and we're both thrilled to have gotten the chance to work with each other. <BR/><BR/>Oh, and Griffin, I am totally looking up "Rusty the Narcoleptic Daschund" right after I write this.<BR/><BR/>Gina, I TOTALLY thought to myself at the time, "Oh man, where's my camera. This is a classic Random Fug."<BR/><BR/>And Jag, I think "knit gaucho pants" = "short slacks." And now I must go and be haunted by the mental picture of posterior cameltoe.
