Narcissistic

Growing up, I can clearly remember the phrase "The world does NOT revolve around you" being bandied about by my parents. Of course, I also remember hearing "Your butt pumps pond water" but that's beside the point. I've been accused of being selfish and it's only lately when taking stock of my life that I've come to realize that yes, I'm a pretty selfish person. So now what? Is this a shortcoming I should try to resolve? How can I become less selfish? I know! I'll start a blog, name it after my dog and then incessantly talk about myself and my "issues", real or imagined. That should start me on the road to becoming a recovering selfish person, don't you think?

Oh. You don't think that'll help too much? Oh well then. Fuck it.

Case in point: I've been seeing a lot of these things called "memes" on other blogs I read. I've actually participated in one once. Since then I haven't been invited to participate in another meme (meme: made up of the word me twice...coincidence? I think not) and instead of wondering why no one has tagged me, I'll just put it out there to my 12 readers: which meme would you like to see here on Corn Dog Blog? And please, indicate whether you would like honest responses from me or made up responses from Corn Dog.

Meme 1: Things I'm Obsessed With (That I Promise Won't Include Fabio Cannavaro Even Though I'm Totally Obsessed With Him Right Now)

Meme 2: Things Around Me (That I Won't Use As A Weapon In Case Of Emergency)

Meme 3: Stuff Portrait Friday (You'll have to go to Random And Odd to see the rules on this - she calls it SPF)

Meme 4: 5 Things (I Hate More Than The Word Jizz) (No really, see Kimba's version.)

Why someone would want to fill out a chain letter on their blog is beyond me. It like people are in school and they need the teacher to give out an assignment to fill up thier journal.
Em... Jasoners...

Did anyone ever prove beyond doubt that the world doesn't revolve around you? Bollocks to the "you're a bit self absorbed" crap, if you don't believe in yourself and think about yourself who else will? There may be no I in team but there is clearly a big fat ME... Do whatever meme you want to whatever the hell one is.

PS. am I allowed to ask if SS is now really minted!?!

Stupid Saturn Rising

My horoscope today said that "my insecurity has taken on a life of its own". That's comforting. Now I remember why I quit reading horoscopes. Although, I thought I was just making the title up with this reference to Saturn rising, but as it turns out, my astrological chart really does say that Saturn is my ascendant planet right now. I'm super fucking in tune with my planets, so just keep that in mind. It's my secret weapon. In other news, have you ever had that problem where you have absolutely so much going on and so much to do, that you find yourself unable to start and complete one simple task? Take for instance, a blog post. I must have started writing on four separate posts in the last week, yet you can easily see nothing new posted in that time frame. I'm guilting on the fact that I haven't posted in so long. Generally, I wouldn't care so much - at least not enough to feel guilty about it - but the wicked knowledge that there are a few hardy sou

High Tide

On the Piney! About three days after we were there last, the banks could no longer contain the flood water and the river rose to about 10 feet from where our tent stood just a few days previously. I don't *think* The Lodge took on any water, but it would have been a really close call, and for those of you that don't know, The Lodge is easily a 150-ft. walk from the normal river bank. Photographic evidence: And I'm going to try this new-fangled video thing...we'll see if it works for anyone (8 Mb for a shorty):

Don't You Love it When...

...you get a new phone? I am bursting with pride over my new little friend. It sings to me and she retrieves my email...I love it so. The only downside is that I'm bound to become one of those people pretending to pay attention in a conversation but am actually checking my emails on my phone. But, I'm breaking it in with the firm assertion that I WON'T become one of those people addicted to their email. I'm not that important and I don't ever want to be that important. ...you have a party and the cops are called because people are having too much fun for stodgy suburbia? The third (or was it fourth) annual Jamexican party had probably it's largest turnout ever (thanks in large part to Anna and her party coordination skills) and I think everyone had a jolly good time. By the time the cops showed up to let us know there had been "several" noise complaints from neighbors (which maybe? I have a hard time believing since two of our five neighbors wer
