    How about 10 reasons why not to avoid you too? Number one could be that you have a good sense of humour?

    PS Has someone upset you or are you feeling cynical?

    Awww, Fuff!

    *crimson-faced*

    That's so sweet! And very undeserved, but mega ta's! :-)

    No, no, I'm actually in a fairly good mood, thanks, and cynicism is my middle name! :-D But you have given me some ideas for 10 reasons not to avoid me. :-D Tee hee!

    How are you this late afternoon? :0)

    Those are 10 Reasons why I CAN'T avoid you!

     
  • At 07 March, 2006 12:29, Blogger Fuff said…

    LOL!

    Bored as usual T, off out in the rain I think, got to be better than sitting indoors.

     
  • At 07 March, 2006 12:32, Blogger Cheshire Cat said…

    Thanks, Doc.

    Really, you and Fuff, are causing my already-galaxy-sized head to expand ever further. This might explain those conflicting expansion/contraction theories about the universe.

    Honest! ;-)

     
  • At 07 March, 2006 12:32, Blogger Cheshire Cat said…

    I love the rain, Fuff. Well, thunderstorms and the like!

    Enjoy but be safe! :-)

    Hey! Hey! I see you have a quote by Kellogs AllBran at teh top of this blog. Very nice :)

    Maybe more fiber...

    I am sorry I do watch TV. I keep threatening to pull the plug, but there are times I just need to watch somethign that doesn't require my mind to be shifted out of neutral.

    I think your blog is funny anyway.

     
  • At 08 March, 2006 01:24, Blogger Cheshire Cat said…

    Jack: Kellog's All Bran? Huh? I see you made it across the blogs safely. :-)

    Phosgene Kid: Thank you very much! I suspect over half of what I write is unintentionally funny, but I appreciate your kind words. :-D

    As for TV, no worries. If I had cable and the time, I'd watch The History Channel, Discovery Channel, other nature/learning type channels and Cartoon Network 24/7.

    10 Reasons To Avoid Me
    1. I don't do hugs or air kisses.
    2. I'll hate you if you bite your fork.
    3. I'll hate you if I notice you bite your nails.
    4. I'll hate you if you arrive chewing gum.Even if you bin it, I'll still hate you forever for having considered chewing gum.
    5. Sometimes I don't want to talk and so I won't.
    6. If you're a guy and you stay over for a shag, I'll want you to leave first thing in the morning so that I can settle down to breakfast and the paper. I mean, first thing. No coffee. Nothing. Put y'er bloomers back on and get the hell out of my house.
    7. I'll hate you if you eat crisps as a snack.
    8. If you actually buy fashion magazines, I won't take you seriously.
    9. I don't leave questions in threads.
    10. I loathe people who leave questions to be answered in threads. This is what google is for.

    Please Doris, speak your mind will you.

     
  • At 09 March, 2006 20:59, Blogger cityangelz said…

    you mean you do not have a sense of humour??? oh well, that means i must not have one too =D

    Anyway, if that list is really reason to avoid you then people should start avoiding me too, i guess...

    cheers!!

     
  • At 10 March, 2006 00:39, Blogger Cheshire Cat said…

    Awwww, Angel! Good to see you back! :-D And, yes, positively I have no sense of humour. But we can still be friends, yes? ;-)

    Doris: I'm afraid I am part of your banned group since I am guilty of at least a few of your no-no's...

    1. I do do hugs or air kisses with my friends and family.
    3. I do bite my nails, which is one reason I keep them excruciatingly short.
    7. Crisps as a snack are among my favourites.
    9. I do leave questions in threads, for how else would I get an answer? :-)

     
  • At 10 March, 2006 02:15, Blogger Overboard said…

    TB,
    Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
    Okay, what's your favourite flavor for crisps?
    I see you as a sour cream and onion kind of girl.


    [Oh dear, I just broke one of my rules. I asked a question!]

     
  • At 10 March, 2006 02:38, Blogger Cheshire Cat said…

    Lol, Doris.

    I do like sour cream and onion, yes (and pray tell, how did you guess?), as well as salt and vinegar. Truthfully, I like pretty much all crisps. ;-)

    You?
