Literally.

I have my mini giggles to keep my dirty little secret humouring me.
*teehee* IanPenguin. :P

Books are ALWAYS Judged By Their Cover
At the risk of putting an old adage to shame, I venture forth and say this here, right now, in my little not-so-private slice of webspace,
"Always judge a book by its cover"
Ah, well, having said that controversial piece, I must now support this statement with some facts:
1. We are always judged by our 'covers' aka first impressions we give to other people. I shall not limit this to looks, because, the way we act and carry ourselves influence the way we look.
This is greatly practiced in tense situations such as court hearings, interviews, conferences, meetings and so on so forth. Not so much, say, for things like making friends in the mess-hall.
2. One who gives great priority to their appearance, must possess good sense of discipline, self regard, confidence and can pay attention to detail.
Key here is, (especially if you are employing/working with that person) is to have the knowledge of HOW to HARNESS their abilities in a direction that would mutually benefit you both. Personally, I think Texan-wise. Never step out of the house in anything less than a state of dress. (And, trust me, their state of dress, is.... FULLY and OTT dressed.)
*Detour* Recently, a surprise visit came upon the house recently, and I was too busy to even go up and make myself look slightly decent. When THREE, instead of the ONE expected guest entered, I murmured my HI's (at the risk of being anti-social "I did not have my social-face on!"-excuse) and sequestered myself in the deepest darkest corner with WiFi and work. Hmmmm.
Of course, that might sound extreme to some (most?), but I come from families where if the gasman was going to come, my grandmother would make sure she was properly bathed, made up and in her semi-going-out-semi-home clothes. I think, as someone out there stated (very wisely, may I add) that,
"When you pay attention to yourself, you are paying respect to the people around you."
Or summat like it.
I mean, don't go all out with the bubbly, jazz and cocktail gowns whenever you need some lights fixed, but, I think it's just pretty decent to look.... decent (for the lack of other words) and neat when people come into the house. Or when you exit the house at least.
IanPenguin jokes that I even think my outfit when I take TinkyWinky out for a walk. Well.... it has to be practical and suit my current mood doesn't it? Perks of being a girl.
*OMG* "Daughters" by John Mayer just came on.... and... I've just melted. o.O
Back to where I was aeons ago....
3. Realise the image in your mind.
Putting on the right clothes, right make up and so on so forth merely contribute to your attitude and mindset for the day. If you dress dowdy, then you'll feel dowdy! If you're all dressed up, shoes and face shining, well, you'll feel all the better for it and actually project that image about yourself to others, and of course, provide a sight for all the sore eyes in your vicinity.
Well, having said all that, what's the harm of putting on a little make-up and dressing as if you actually cared about yourself? Not being snooty or a brand-snob, but, look back to school.. I bet you, you respected the better dressed teachers better than the frumpy ones, regardless of how good they are. Ahhh... do it like a flashcard! Don't mull over it. :)
And to end, I found these interesting bits, which make-or-break my opinions.

And what's with the argument of celebs being ugly? They're there for a reason, and we innately want and need them to look good. So stop making such a big fuss just because they look like any ordinary guy/gal on the street sans makeup.
And of course, the ultimate makeover.
I honestly don't blame inebriated tourists for getting themselves
in a "stick"y situation.

Ah, when one has a crappy Vaio and has to resort to the "somewhat" charitable offerings of one who adds in Paranoia, Nagging and tons of To-do lists to boot, just for a moment's peace on the WorldWideWank.
And this is what I get.

I hope, you out there, should know the previous post was more of my undoing, rather than my doing.

why bother
Why bother would be the perfect reason and answer for the question.....
But as usual once a while a guest blog writer sitting in for the regular rants of "is this the life" might add spices to this world wide web mini tiny blog of thoughts and wonder how you would decorate your room in shiny shoes dancing to prince jasmine in the background as the little mermaid sun tans under the sun.
A random flash back : At 10 I shaved my head and tried to be a monk
I thought the older women would like me if i did I guess that was the beginning of the poking of the awakening in life and beyond.

Well...There's so much to write and rant and rant and stop for lunch and get back to this but at the current moment I'm thinking more about nice coffee ice and toasted bread and eggs well done........
But I'm very sure the question would be on everyone's mind how did I get the key to this site.....Click click click with my sony click click with my nikon click click with my canon lights camera action strip down to bare basics....
Maybe it could be Sharon Stone in a erotic thriller basic instinct (which many of you guys got super happy in a certain time in your life)
the key for the key lies deep down in your mind.... :)
The author and founder of this blog is lying and sleeping at home this very moment all spread out like patrick the star fish...not to forget the drool from the fountain of youth creating circles and spiral's on the pillow.
Much to the author/founder's knowledge the blog has a guest writer having weird thoughts on its mind on the sentence and chapter.
A little freestyle ad:
you see me easy and fizzy whizzy in the VIP with the whisky and the girls getting loose
i gotta have my crew roll 12 feet before I roll in due to new kids on the block aint that cool.
partying like tomorrow is my birthday on a weekly basic and partying like tomorrow is also my funeral with
a slim shady track being played in the church for my funeral service...can you beat that no kanye west side or east side could overcome that , so thats why he picks on skinny country singer girls at awards...it clears that it aint getting better so kanye get a new hair do and change your rhymes ....
now my girls being mutual on a screen for the best butt........
Back again....reading a stress symptom checklist.....and there's tons to go through.......shite....
do you get rapidly beating heart even at rest? I know for a fact it happens way crazy during sex but while you sleep....unless your speaking in a thick english accent during sleep then i reckon it should be fine....keyword in this story: Get mirrors for your kids at a young age and this disorder could be cured.
I really wish I could stay on and blog my way away down this freeway......and rant and bitch and give inside killa kali for nia lyrical beats (might or might not work some) and just yeah be here...but the fire's from the gate's of hell are flaming and the saviour fire fighter needs to be flying down that way to spread some love and mayhem to either add on more fire or make love in the fire....In the LOVE IS THE ANSWER like
Rivers Cuomo said : "there will come a day when we transcend our pain, until that day take it easy on yourself"
Much Love,

Randomnities on Safe Mode
Taking a break from my lappy which
Keeps. Shutting. Down. And. Me. Losing. All. My. Information. And. Having. To. Look. For. Everything. Again. Since. Safe. Mode. Doesn't. Keep. Anything. From. The. Previous. Sessions.
Anyways, logging into my mail, I see an URGENT MAIL from IanPenguin.
Following which, I scrolled down, and saw the rest of the conversation.
FROM THIS
TO THE PICTURE BEING REFERRED TO IN THE MAILS.
*ROTFL*
So THIS is what he does at work!!!!
