What Nut Are You?

You Are a Hazelnut

You are very unique and distinct. You may even freak some people out. Most people don't really know how to interact with you. You get along best with anyone who is super sweet. But you really do get along with almost anyone. You just need a chance to wow them.

I didn't look up the results for other types of nuts, but I'm not fond of hazelnuts. They're OK, just not my favorite. I guess that's probably what people think of me, not esp. fond of me and not their favorite.

Lancing an Enormous Boil

No, that's not the reason I haven't been posting, I just haven't felt like it.

Instead, I've been reading more, about everything but politics.  The Cowboys have been going through training camp and are playing their last preseason game tomorrow night.  What with suspensions, injuries and all the other usual drama surrounding the team, I've been trying to keep up with all the news and transactions.

Here's the latest one that made me SMH:

niceJoshua .I'm in love..... his name is forny, I just lanced a enormous boil and I'm ready to go after that man.  I'm  making $84 this five weeks past and just over $210  this past 4 months ...... it's by-far the easiest work Ive had and I've found the man of my dreams . (link removed)

What if forny has a boil fetish, whatcha gonna do now?

It's just a broken or expired link, but I can't help but think it's Karma reminding me of the significance of my life.

Be Careful What You Wish For
