(UPDATE: I changed the first sentence of this post because the whole thing was just a cheap boner joke and I only believe in earned boner jokes.)
If I’d remembered Adam had a thing for MINIS as he discussed on yesterday’s podcast, I would have told him about how I’d hosted videos for MINI from the LA Auto Show a couple years ago and from the MINIspace rooftop thing the year before and how I’d driven an electric MINI and a crapload of non-electric MINIS and how no one appreciated when I suggested a MINI party bus be named a MAXI. But I didn’t tell him. But I’m telling you guys. Mostly just because I think my image is kind of marshmallow-y so I like when I can show you that I’m no stranger to tuff stuff. Not that these videos are tuff stuff. Also, when did I start using the phrase “tuff stuff”? In the previous two sentences. But I’d recommend just reading the posts (click older entries at the bottom because I think only 5 or 10 per page show up) instead of actually watching the videos which aren’t my best work by any means. Well, some of them are. But some of them aren’t.
What else did I want to tell you? Well right now there is a shower cap clamped to a hanger dangling from a rafter outside, as if we are scaring off bad hair or hanging it in effigy. It’s actually because the thing reeks so significantly of mothballs I considered for a moment that the reason old people smell like mothballs is because they use this kind of shower cap. What’s with a young person like me even owning a shower cap? Sometimes I need to take a quick shower and don’t want my hair to get wet. Plus they just look cool. (note: they DO NOT look cool) It’s just not any shower cap though, it’s a special fancy one with a terry cloth lining inside which looked appealing until I opened it up and realized the terry cloth was made from freshly spun mothballs. Or maybe the smell is coming from some other toxic source. Maybe it’s the vinyl. Regardless I’m pretty sure I should place it in a drum deep in the bowels of the sea but I’m giving it a chance to air out. If a bunch of birds drop from the sky directly over this house then we’ll know this was a mistake.
Oh, also? Tom Rapp who writes and performs all the music for my show has started a blog about it so you should go there!
Okay I’m only going to mention this because I care, not to freak you out. I couldn’t hang things outside like that because I would be concerned about SPIDERS!!!!! I’d spend a good 10 minutes making sure there wasn’t a spider in there and even after that ANYTHING that I felt funny I’d have to check it again. I might as well just throw it away. Hopefully Dr. Rosen isn’t as picky as I am. ;o)
Do mothballs work on spiders?
Hey! I learned something today! Moth balls are good for keeping spiders, mice, snakes, and moths out of your house! It is a pesticide though, so you need to be careful for those sensitive people. I’m not sure I’d want to have them in my shower cap though.
I was six years old when I first saw my mother wearing her shower cap. I thought it was because she was bald and didn’t want me to know. Crazy huh? So Alison, why don’t you want us to know you’re bald?
What is the legality of using the shower cap someplace other than the shower? Say for instance it was raining outside and you needed to go somewhere like the auto parts store to buy a new steering rack for your 1972 AMC Javelin and you didn’t want to get your hair wet, and on the way you were stopped for speeding (You didn’t do it intentionaly), would the Highway patrol officer also cite you for improper wearing hair protection device?

I learned something new today too!! The porn industry has a whole subgenre that is dedicated to the shower cap wearing fetish people. I’m serious!! Ask Courtney Cummz!!!

Initially when I saw this picture I thought of how if Sponge Bob was a hunter, this might be how he would display his big jellyfish kill of the day!
