An Update on the New Year

We had such an excellent Christmas break. I did laundry as needed. Enjoyed the company of my family. Fixed a lot of hors d'oeuvres for munching around. And that's pretty much it.

The Evil Twin returns to work today and Buddy returns to school today. That leaves me and Sissy - and most likely a trip to the Mart of Wal later on.

So, to ring in the New Year, the Evil Twin went in search of new calendars for the house. Buddy likes a calendar in his room, the Evil Twin likes one in his office and then we have one that hangs in the dining room, even though I have a write-on/wipe-off calendar I keep on the fridge and a date book I keep with my "stuff" (address book, bills, etc.).

I got an email from the Evil Twin regarding some calendars he had seen on Amazon that he would like to order.

He asked my opinion on one he thought would be nice in the dining room:



I laughed so hard, I thought I would cry.

Too bad it is out of stock.

I am not a gay man (check picture above), but if I was, this would be the calendar for me. Even as a straight chick, I do like the big bears. Fur and muscle? Not so much. Try fur and just heavy set. That's my type. I love a big, hairy man.

Not this:



But,this:



Is completely acceptable, in my world. :-) Lucky enough for me, the Evil Twin is just what I ever wanted (the pic above is not him, BTW).

We decided upon a Graffiti calendar for the dining room, which is both artistic and colorful and not offensive in any way. Plus, the calendars are all on sale and free shipping for orders over $25! I'm all about that!

Wish me luck as we embark on our first day back to the regular routine. :-)

  2. Too funny! My friends and I were talking about male body hair on Saturday night. I like smooth, hairless man. My dad didn't have a hair chest and I grew up thinking that was normal. Now chest hair just plain freaks me out!!

  3. Oh ho! We like the same type of man! :)

    Too many muscles = egocentric, to my way of thinking. Maybe that's just a holdover from my bodybuilding days though.

    Hope you and Sissy have a great day.

  6. That would be a pretty awesome calendar to hang in the dining room. I'm sure people who come over to visit would love it too. ;-)

  7. I used to hang the sports Illustrated calendar, but I would be passing by and then just lose hours staring at it. I was never on time back then.

  9. That calendar hung in my dining room might just curb my appetite enough for me to lose weight. Either that, or I'd just park my ass in the living room in front of the TV to eat!

  17. I like big, hairy men, too. Chachi is along the lines of the last photo.

    I do NOT like overly muscular men. They skeeve me right out.

    The middle photo made me want to pass out. Wow. That is a LOT of hair.

    Happy New Year to you and yours!

  19. Okay, seriously, don't you think it would be funny to shave some messages into that guys back or on his butt?

    Since Tiger Woods won't be doing much advertising for the near future, why not shave a Nike swoosh onto this guy's ass?

  22. Holy. Lord. I mean, if y'all still want that calendar, I can walk up the street and get you six or seven varieties. ;)

  23. Oh man, I love me some Butch Bears or whatever the hell it is. I can't believe that is even in existence. I'm gagging a little.


    Glad you had a lovely vacation. This is going to be a long week for those of us who were enjoying the two short ones we just had!
