You may ask yourself: WTF? Where is Sanni´s Wordless Wednesday entry?
Well… there won´t be a WW today - our internet connection is still a mess… surfing the net and blurfing your blogs feels like being catapulted back to the Stone Age. I decided I won´t participate in today´s WW because I can´t warrant to visit other players. Having a look at all your kind comments I recieved I feel rude because I can´t visit you and leave a comment on my own.
I´ve subscribed to my fave Blogger´s in my feedreader some time ago - so I can read you, but not visit and comment. Do you use a feedreader, too, and if: Does it support the comment section?
I hope the problem will be fixed soon - although the damn so called “hotline” of our provider tells something else… like: “We didn´t register any problem so far. Please visit the arcor-speedcheck-side, up- and download the requested files and report the ticket-numbers.” HA! That´s exactly what I… uhm… let´s say: TRIED. I called the “hotline” and felt like Queen Mimi in her hilarious posting Mimi´s Minutes MEME. I could even watch a jungle growing on my legs while I was waiting for the next free line. After waiting for about one hour (*bing* one minute waiting means 12ct added to my bill *bing*) listening to Mozart´s Lullaby I spoke to a real person, asking me for the ticket-numbers.
I had to answer: “I got none.” -
“We need them. We can´t help you w/ the ticket numbers. They tell us about the port-speed.” -
“Well, lady. There´s been no speed at all. I recieved the error message: “Your connection is way too slow to up- or download any of our packages! We´ll disrupt now. Please try again later!” -
“Oooops - I´ve never heared about this problem before. I´ll put you on hold and ask the supervisior.”
After another 30+ minutes of Mozart´s Lullaby a machine told me:
“All lines are busy right now. Please try again later. Or use our internet support center to inform us about your internet problem!”
WTF??? Helllloooooo?! *WOOZA*
I hope I don´t upset anybody because I´m such a bad blogging pal at present. The only chance to be online is Frank´s work-computer at present… which is mostly occupied. But I promise to catch up as soon as possible…
Julie has invited to join her Race to the shower - her bridal shower is 16 weeks away. Julie´s goal is to get rid of another 15/16 pounds till then. I really appreciate her invitation and joined the race to get back into the loser-saddle. The Easter holidays thwarted my weight loss… way too many chocolate bunnies and other sins. Uhm… okay, it was not the holiday. It was ME munching all that stuff. However, we weigh in once a week. I faced my fears and had a short meeting with my scale yesterday. The scale didn´t do any backflips - but it didn´t tell me not to appear in groups while weighing either. It showed a +/- ZERO. I got no clue hoe this could happen… but I´m glad. That´s still 132 lb - 7 lb to go.
Wanna join the race or just support? Please visit Flip This Body! The more the merrier!
Turnbaby invited everyone to come up with some six-word-stories in her posting Oooo let´s play:
A writer’s meme.Ernest Hemingway said the best thing he ever wrote was a six-word story. It is this:
For sale–
Baby shoes.
Never used.My challenge to you, Dear Readers and Writers, is to come up with your own six-word story. That’s all. Six words. How hard could that be? It’ll only take a minute.
I´m not a passiontated writer like most of you. I wrote some short stories and I´m working on a novel at present … but all of my work is written in German so far. I could come up with some German six-worder, but: Who wants to read them? Doesn´t make sense =)
Met him. Done it. Size matters.
Dreamed of him. Got him. Crap.
George had always been a Lesbian.
Looks yummy! What is it? - Humans.
He loved people. Exceedingly their insides.
“Red!” was the co-drivers last word.
Six word stories are very addictive.
Please visit Turnbaby for more entries!

Last but definitely not least: My wonderful blogging friend Desert Songbird is ecsaping in a few hours. She´ll trip to Indy. I´m wishing her a fabulous vacation - snow- and rain-free of course!

And now…
… our moment of Homer J.:

Homer: I’ll never wiggle my bare butt it public again
Lisa: I’d like to beleive that this time, I really would.









































@ Desert Songbird:
Uhm… It was not ME =)
Ooops… another 6.
It´s really addictive.
I forgot how to count till seven!
Ha! That was definitely a seven.
And that were two 6s again.
Dang!
I found the so called Writer´s MEME at Turnbaby´s place. She found it at Jenna´s as far as I can remember… but I don´t think I can name myself a writer in your language… so I called it Wordplay Wednesday ;)
Have a fabulous trip - and return safe and sound!

I love this Wordplay Wednesday! I think you just hit upon a new meme! I’ve been contemplating something like this.
Your six-word stories are HILARIOUS.
Thanks for mentioning me. I’m all packed and ready to leave in the morning!!!!!
