Really ad agency? You really are showcasing the new Schick Quattro razor with bikini trimmer by showing a woman running by bushes and once she passes them, the bushes are trimmed? Into various shapes? And then using the same concept in print with a trimmed shrub covering a sensitive area on the naked statue of Venus?
I hate when lady products make it uncomfortable to watch TV with my dad.

Congratulations!
The Fast and the Furious Three has been proclaimed the best movie in the Fast and Furious franchise. An award much like being the prettiest carnie at the state fair.

Breaking My Silence for This
I have never apologized for being from nowhere. In fact, I love being from a nowhere that is as great as small town Iowa. I love it so much, I am writing a book about it.
Though I’ve always been proud of where I’m from, my eyes are actually welling with pride today. Little, conservative, middle of nowhere Iowa, just made history. After a ruling by its highest court, Iowa will become the third state to legalize gay marriage.
That’s right kids. Iowa. Who are the Idiots Out Walking Around, now? (Ahem California.)

TITD*…Automated Telephone Systems Made Me Cry
Actually it was Wednesday, but I couldn’t post because my internet was down. Hence my 3 hours on the phone with AT&T, my DSL provider. After spending 20 minutes talking to a man in the DSL department, he informed me that my problem was with the telephone, not the internet and that he could give me a number to call for telephone repairs. Please note that AT&T provides both my telephone and DSL service. I asked if he could transfer me to the phone division. He could not. They cannot transfer. AT&T the largest telecom provider in the world, cannot complete a transfer. Oh irony, how you sleigh me.
Anywho, the telephone division was equipped with one of those horrifying voice recognition software systems. You know what those systems suck at? Understanding English. I was literally screaming the word “Repair” into the phone and the man on the system would say “Did you say Orders?” or “Sounds like you want to discontinue your service. Am I right?” NO! No you silly bastard you are not right. Then he would apologize and say “I’m sorry I’m having so much trouble understanding you, let me transfer you to someone who can help.” Then I would talk to a sales person who would give me a number for phone repairs and the process would start again.
Do you know what finally worked? When he asked me to describe my problem, I said “My telephone sucks.” And he said “It sounds like you need the repairs division.” I was just surprised he was able to understand me through my tears.
*TITD = Today is the Day. Clever right?

Today is the Day I Learned What I have in common with Brody Jenner…
My cell phone. After losing my old faithful phone to a watering can filled with vodka lemonades during Saturday night’s festivities and cancelling my iPhone order ($30 more a month than I pay now, $700+ for the term of my contract), I needed something new. And I picked the phone they show in the barf-tastic commercial starring LC and Brody. I feel bad about myself. But, I really like the phone.
In happier news, I also learned how cute the boy at the AT&T Store on Fullerton is. I spent the whole ½ hour flirting and so did he. Turns out my new running skort (yep, I’ll save that for tomorrow) is quite powerful.

Today is the Day Lyndsanity...
Started a new blog convention. Because I'm really drained for some odd reason, I'm copping out for a bit. So you're the lucky ones who will get to read about things that I did on a particular day. Are you thrilled? Well if not, there's always the option to not read. You should have lots of practice at that after two months of almost no posts.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!
