Let's hear it for the boys...


The boys and me 

It's a teensy weensy bit belated, but congrats to my brothers (both younger, even though I'm the shrimp among the siblings at this point), Andrew (left) and Dan (right). They both graduated in May---Andrew from high school and Dan with his masters in social work. I'm so proud!

That's so cool! And it's a good thing that Dan finished his schooling around the same time the baby was born.

I predict that Andrew will go on to revolutionize our concept of graphic art and FINALLY bring respectability to the captivating world of stick man drawings. We stick man artists will then be able to take our places at the table among all those "serious" painters.

Heather, is that you? :)

No, it was my friend Blind Willie McTell. He thinks you are ALL THAT.

But then again, he is blind.

Actually, I think she's incredibly hot as well. She has beautiful eyes, a fantastic smile, and hair that takes your breath away no matter how she styles it...

True, but yet, you won't sign your name. If you are Prince Charming, Lorie would likely want to know....

Lorie,

I think I saw your ex-boyfriend online somewhere. It was that guy from Indiana, Mark or Mitch or something like that. Anyway, you know anything about it?

Men who don't reveal themselves in comments of admiration do not paint themselves in the best light. Not revealing your identity is NOT an act of discernment or discretion. And let me just tell you...women (especially beautiful, intelligent women like Lorie) respect men who are honest and who are real men. Men who have the courage to step up to the plate. Otherwise, the act of anonomity is seen as an act of cowardice.

I second everything Jessica said, except the parts about Lorie being beautiful and intelligent.

Ha! Just kidding with my homie.

So when exactly is this "due time"? :)

It's true. I'm loved. :)

are looks an issue for you when it comes to men?

11:34 PM  
Blogger Bobby said...

I'm pretty sure looks aren't an issue. Proof?

See that thing in Lorie's photo that resembles a cat?

That was her last boyfriend.

Nonsense. Looks are an issue---the guy HAS to like my looks.

Cat-Boy thought you were totally hot. Too bad about the hairball issue.

Seriously, there are always exceptions, but most people find happiness with someone close to their own level of attractiveness. It's just human nature.
Given that Lorie is attractive, there is a good chance that her eventual mate will be as well, although I'm sure he will have to connect with her on many, many more issues than simply physical attraction.

do you have to like his looks, though?

could you learn to love someone who was not as physically attractive as you might go for?

Dude, leave her alone. You're starting to creep her out. You creeped me out a while back, but you had a chance to back off or fly straight after Jessica's post so I didn't say anything.

If you want to ask these kinds of personal questions you should drop the anonymous crap and develop a friendship with Lorie. She's not a hard person to become friends with if you're on the up-and-up.

And I also don't think looks are as important (because whether someone is "goodlooking" or not is very subjective---depends on who you're asking) as how comfortable someone is in their own skin. Personally, I want someone who is comfortable with who they are---including how they look.

DANG!!! I TOTALLY missed all the drama! Nobody will read this comment probably...too bad. I would have liked to chime in too.

Anonymous-
There's zero chance of Lorie going for you if you pursue her anonymously, you know? What would it hurt to tell her your identity? Nothing. That's what. Absolutely nothing. It would just give you a chance with her.

Plus, if you DON'T reveal your identity, you'll go down in history as "the creep who wouldn't reveal his identity." You want to be remembered as "the stud who confidently pursued Lorie King."
