I don’t usually make New Year’s resolutions
December 31st, 2009 | by TJ |I, Temerity A for Awesome Jane, do hereby resolve to do the following in 2010,
1. Brush my hair more often.
2. Post more unflattering pictures of myself, because, you know what, who cares?
3. Not continue to eat the pineapple after the first piece or two have caused Phil to whip out his camera in anticipation of the next several pieces.

There would be a lot more pictures of me on this blog if I didn’t spend so much time worrying about who was going to see them and what they might think.

OMG. You realize that you just admitted that Phil “knows” you. He knows what your going to do before you do.
@ Phil. Grats!

He doesn’t know anything before I know. He only got his camera out after the first couple of pieces of pineapple. He missed the initial disgusted hilarity, obviously.
Last night, however, I told him about an argument that he and I are going to have soon. He not only agreed that we’re going to have said argument soon, but that I’m obviously right. Ask him. Seriously. This discussion actually happened.
That is skill, people.

But…if he has already admitted prior to the occurrence of said argument that you are indeed right…why would said argument still take place?

I have been inspired, in a way, by your “coming out” post. There have been a million posts I haven’t made and a million pictures I haven’t taken for posts that I have made because of who would see them and how they might look and what people might think and you know what? Pffffffft!

Heh, I put a not necessarily flattering picture of me up as my Facebook profile pic. My husband was like “why are you putting that up there?” I told him it’s because it’s recent and kind of funny. He took it at Christmas while we were sitting next to each other on the couch so it’s me with my eyes squinting and mostly just my head. I’m already married so who am I trying to impress? I just try to amuse myself at this point.

I can’t tell if you’re actually enjoying the pineapple or not. Not ripe enough?

It looked ok. Sometimes it was ok and sometimes it was awful. Pineapple is such an enigma.

I’m pretty sure that’s TJ scraping pineapple off of her tongue… which would be a NO, IT’S GROSS reaction.

Sometimes you need to go with full-on scrape for total removal.

That’s what I thought but then I thought… but yeah.. she kept eating it even though it was gross?? Is that one of those.. “surely this will get better” kind of things?

Some pieces were good, and some were bad. It was like a pineapple crapshoot!

Whether or not that’s actually true, one, my middle initial is A for real and two, on me, it actually makes sense.
