My Bimbo

Okay - so I proudly declare that I have never lived a bimbo lifestyle - never was interested in fashion, shopping for clothes, having boyfriends give me money everyday, working as a hairdresser, etc. NOT that there is anything wrong with any of those things. But, I have been enjoying taking care of my bimbo - Starica (named after me and my coworker Erica) at www.missbimbo.com. I feed her, send her to the gym and to the library (I'm making my bimbo smart!), flirt and get boyfriends that give her money daily, get different jobs, new hairdos, coloring, makeup, etc. depending on the various goals to get to a higher level in the game. There are games where you can win Bimbo Dollars, Bimbo Attitude and Bimbo IQ and you can challenge other bimbos in fashion and attitude duels!! I love my bimbo because when I feed her steak and fries and she weighs over her ideal weight (of 127 pounds) her happiness level goes to 104%! I like that she is happy when she gains weight and eats steak because that is how I am! Anyway, right now she is a healthy weight of 155 pounds because her goal this level is to be a plus-size model and she is 185% happy now!

Woo Hoo! Time to celebrate!

Meet the Mean Girls!

Book Swap!

Calling all literate MGs! Let's get together and do a book swap! From horror to romance to fantasy, we all have books that we can share with each other. So instead of reading the same ones over and over again (SwissMiss!), we can loan them out amongst each other!

Disclaimer -- This is not a book club. But whoever gets my books will have to report to me what they're about, since I'm the type who buys books and never reads them. Something about purchasing them and then having them stack up in my house makes me feel good! Somehow I never get around to actually reading them... too much tv watching.

So, who's in? And when should we start?

Dare to be judged by strangers...

So I hate being judged. That's why I never became a reporter. Afraid random strangers would be sitting at home and saying "What's up with her hair?" or "What is she wearing?" or "Boy, she looks tired today." (Hey, isn't that what we say when we watch tv???) That's why I remained behind-the-scenes. Better to not be seen, I say.

But a co-worker led me to this web site, www.facestat.com, that lets you be judged by random strangers. This seems like the worst idea, but peer pressure (and curiosity) made me do it. So I uploaded what I think is a cute picture of me to this web site (that's me on the left with the co-worker who forced me to do this!). For a day, people from wherever judged me on things like weight, wealth, age, humor, etc.

The results are:

• Sad news - Majority thinks I'm chunky.
• Bright side - Majority thinks I'm 28 years old, attractive and funny!

So I'm looking at the bright side! I may be chunky, but at least I'm about 7 years younger than I really am! And as I approach 35, that's more important to me.

Now... where's my cookie???
