Just Call Me Hillary

2007 November 2
by Laurie Kendrick

.

I really don’t want to do this, but some prodding from a man with whom I’ve been intimate and my own need to avoid all of Ralph Nader’s electoral pitfalls, compels me.

A few weeks ago, my little old blog was nominated for Funniest Blog in the 2007 Weblog Awards. I was touched, flattered and honored and until I was nominated, had never even heard of this competition.

But somehow, through the muck and mire of my mind, through my tears and frustration as a peri-menopausal woman battling shriveling ovaries and through months of abject unemployment and countless temper tantrums, I find my blog has made it to the finals.

The finals.

You can see the voting process right here.

My friends at the Nose On Your Face, a very funny blog, has also been nominated. With them, I am definitely in good company.

I’d also like to show my support (and so should you!!) for Nicole at Pinch My Salt, an absolutely lovely food blog. Beautifully done! Click here to vote for Pinch My Salt.

And also, please vote my mi amiga, Fausta for her category.

To be honest, I was very disappointed in learning that results from this competition are politically based. The process to determine actual finalists is far more meticulously done than the actual voting itself. A special committee does that. Voting however, is based on how much campaigning you do. I won’t do that.

My blog either wins on it’s own merits….or it doesn’t.

In the vast configuration of things my friends, popularity is nice—-I would know—-I was a cheerleader. But the strength of this blog especially IS NOT fueled by votes, a title or a certificate. It is a combination of my warped mind, how pissed off I am about a particular issue and of course, you—-the reader. That you read this blog is enough. It is JUST seven months old as of Halloween. Not that many people have heard of me.

Yet.

Even so, I am lucky and I am grateful to have the readership I have.

Seriously.

Without you, I am doo doo.

    I voted this morning for ya–will vote tonight from home computer and keep it up until the 8th when voting ends.

    Key-you are so right–not funny at all–although a whoopee cushion at a funeral would make me laugh if the dead person was not that close to me–oh to hell with it–it would be funny no matter who it was–after all they are dead–they won’t know the difference.

  2. 2007 November 2

    Comedy is as comedy does, Key. There are people who think you and I aren’t funny…

    HOW FUCKED UP ARE THEY??????

    Karol, the Prime Minister is fine. He makes me smile

    Tell me Key, what does your own asshole taste like? Your head is shoved up it so often that really, I’m just curious.

  35. 2007 November 2

    HAHAHA I actually laughed out loud at that one Key. It’s about time you got funny.

  36. 2007 November 2

    4.81 seconds of the best sex in my life and yes, from what I hear, you were being very generous!!

  37. 2007 November 2

    Go home bag o’douche and call me later.

  38. 2007 November 2

    Friends?

    Let me put it this way, if Key was dying because he needed a kidney transplant and my kidney proved to be a perfect donor match, know what would happen?

    Key would die.

  55. 2007 November 2

    yes we are just that…beautiful and damned luminescent and of course, mysterious. The quintessence of feminine, too. Proper and lady like

  56. 2007 November 2
    Kathy permalink

    HAHAHAHAHA laurie..how true! Feminine allright! Beautiful too. Sexy? Of course

    Nate, I wouldn’t call any of us mysterious. I think troubled and puzzling would be more accurate.

    There is some Scotch, Irish, German, Polish, and Cherokee Indian in our bloodline and Lord knows what else that they just won’t admit to. Our great grandmother came to Texas in a covered wagon from Pennsylvania-part of the Dutch colony. The Kendrick was original McKendrick and their were three brothers that actually arrived in Boston are and migrated to Illinois and surrounding states. so here we are! still here!

    I think people who read this blog are a bit different to begin with. I wouldn’t say LK writes for the everyman. I do remember a lot. I have to in my life of work.

    Also, nothing pisses me off more than watching those crap shows that remodel for less than a grand. Trust me what the camera doesn’t show is that the work reflects a thousand dollars worth of work.

    Kathy permalink

    I agree but these guys really do look like they put alot into those renos. They upgrade a lot and He uses his wife to do the decorating and she choses very nice appliances and usually the kitchens are very nice. The most important room in the house I think.

    that you were classy- like last night when I created the Man Chair I also mentioned that you would probably prefer a classice wing back instead.

    I deal mainly with different era of parents who are creating a lot of selfish, non-problem solving children who think the world revolves around them. I think it would be easier sometimes to deal mainly with the kids like I used to.

    You can still vote for LK if you want to. Voting continues until next week sometimes. At last check the old girl was in last place. She refuses to campaign like the others are. I can respect her for that.

  86. 2007 November 2
    Kathy permalink

    Greg, I speak from experience…if she doesn’t want to spend the night don’t worry….they will eventually be back with their baggage in tow, stuff, children and or spouses, etc. I do know how you are feeling but I have finally let go and are concentrating on me for a change-I take it that you are much younger than me.

    Kathy? Where are you? Is LK trying to dig out from old Kansas farm house that no doubt fell on top of her?

    this is where the mystery begins. At least for her, Karol and I are pretty transparent.

  97. 2007 November 2

    I’ll do that NTR, Laurie.
    Kathy, she tried that once but backed out when I told her I wouldn’t allow any of her stupid-idiot boyfriends around here after sundown. She’s coming back tomorrow morning so I can take them both to her mother’s for a sleepover. Sad, huh?

  98. 2007 November 2

    you will need to always refer to him as the prime minister-s . He watches from afar. I’m sure that he has been reading her blogs. Hi PM!!!!

    shit- I can’t decided if I need to open a new bottle of wine cause I just finished the other one I have been nursing on for three days. I am leaving tomorrow morning for Austin to meet a friend for the weekend and need to save the new ones for the trip. Guess I will have to sacrifice.

    Life in Karnes City…Cheryl will testify to this. It was a good place to raise a family. a lot of things to do, good schools, churches, lots of young families. Times were so different then. There are 7 1/2 years difference in LK and my ages. 3 1/2 years between Karol and I. If you were to look at our family pictures they would probably look like everyones elses-but our family was nuts.

    I am not a drunk. but I prefer that to beer unless it is a very cold Tecati with lime. I’m from Texas so I likes me that mexican beer.(sometimes) when I am in Mexico, but I haven’t gotten my passport yet so I am stuck in and have to pretend I am there. shit what did i JUST SAY??

    Actually it’s Bill from Veggiemacabre. I just consider you, LK a friend so i go by Billy. Bill is my work name. it just doesn’t seem to fit.

    It should be cognac. But then again I’m not that great of a writer.

  181. 2007 November 2

    OH Bill! Hey! Ya’ll this guy is a brilliant writer.

    go check out his blog. I hope you don’t mind that I blogrolled you Bill. As a refined Texas woman, I usually ask permission first, but I do so love yo blog that I thought…screw it.

  182. 2007 November 2

    does blog-etiquette require us to ask before blogrolling someone?

  183. 2007 November 2

    No, but I like to extend the courtesy, Chuck.

    Bill, Chuck is a gifted writer himself from Minnesota.

  184. 2007 November 2

    Greg is stellar as well and he and I are old radio friends here in Houston. I used to be on the air and TV here Billy and Chuck

  185. 2007 November 2

    I don’t think so tri. I think it’s a compliment that someone links you to their blog.

  186. 2007 November 2
    Billy permalink

    I blogrolled you without asking so it’s cool. I’m really flattered. Your pilot error post made me choke it was so funny.

    Wow, you guys ARE famous. I need to catch up! What did you guys do on the radio and TV?

    You are not Laurie. I’ve been reading your blog and there is no way old ladies can write about things I relate to everyday of my life. It is the funniest stuff I have ever read.

    Wow, I am really flattered.

    You should get back on air but on XM so I can get it in FL. Radio here sucks except for ManCow but he makes me nervous with his ADD rants. I stick with Neil Bortz. Rather listen to you and Greg.

  207. 2007 November 2

    I know Neil. I hired him (well his agent actually for him to run syndiated) to do mid mornings at my old station. I’ve met him several times.
