If it's cheesecake Lance Mannion wants, then it's cheesecake Lance Mannion's gonna get. Who am I to judge his shallow marketing ideas to help increase girl blog traffic? I'm easy. I'll play along.
And no jello talk here either, 'cuz we're not focusing on my thighs. We're gonna focus on my new haircut. Well, actually I just got my bangs cut. While studying my face in the mirror since my birthday, I figured it was time for either bangs or botox. And not being one to pay others to inflict pain on me -- well, not most of the time anyway, if you catch my drift -- I opted for the bangs.
Since my minor transformation, my husband's been calling me Moonbeam.
But at lunch with a friend yesterday, she said it was very "Carol Alt." I didn't necessarily disagree with Moonbeam, but I much prefer the Carol Alt comparison.
And since google-searching Carol Alt, I've discovered we have more in common that just our hairstyle. According to askmen.com:
"She has thrived and remains relevant."
She, to the world at large. Me, to the little world all my own.
"You will no longer find her clad in a bikini and draped all over a palm tree."
Whew! Me neither. Glad those days are over. That used to hurt like the dickens!
"An older, experienced woman can be so damn attractive."
Yes, the older women get, the more they say this sort of thing to themselves. And if you squint, it is very true.
"I never thought I was the most beautiful or the most sexy woman, but I was a hard worker."
Carol Alt said this, when asked about the secret of her success. That's the exact same answer I would give if I was being interviewed.
The similarities are uncanny!
I showed my husband Alt's photo and told him how my friend said my new look and her look is quite the same.
He said, "you just keep tellin' yourself that, Moonbeam."
At which time I quickly replied, "Well, it's better to have a hairstyle like Carol Alt, than Telly Savalis!"
Do you think Carol Alt is that witty? I highly doubt it.
To see some sexy shots of Alt with and without my new hairstyle, go here.
And here's a little Moonbeam-hippie cheesecake, but she doesn't have bangs.
Sorry guys, I just had to crop the photo.
I just couldn't go all the way.
Somehow I always knew you looked like Carol Alt.

Who am I to disagree with what you think you've always known?
Got that? Good. It was quite the tongue-twister!

Er, speechless I am in the presence of such pulchri...no, erudition.
Posted by: Linkmeister | June 05, 2005 at 03:30 PM
I know Linkmeister -- there really are no words to describe how much my new bang length and Carol Alt's bang length have in common.
And I hope you guys are getting some sort of charge over how many times I am banging out the word "bang" on this post!
I'm sure the traffic to this site is going to increase ten-fold......one day.
Posted by: blue girl | June 05, 2005 at 03:52 PM
I'd bang either of your lengths.

Well, it's been near-24 hours (since the 1st comment anyway). So -- report! How's the traffic to your blog now? Spiking? My interest is purely ... er, scientific. And I was reading the pics ... I mean, the column. Really.
Posted by: Scourge | June 06, 2005 at 03:44 PM
Scourge! Just checked -- Incredible -- I've had close to 300 hits today -- that is truly a sharp spike for me. Yay!
Although most are reading the post about my robbery where I come off "fragile." -- When in reality, I'm not.
I can totally kick-butt and take names -- if there's not a gun in my face!
And guys -- my husband thinks you all got totally ripped off. The last photo of the hippie-chick cheesecake? She's totally naked all the way down to her toes.
The only clothing she's got on is that scarf around her head.
My husband thinks I should put it up for all of you --
But, I'm afraid that Gonzales would show up at my door!

Add me to the people who will no longer be seen in a bikini draped over a palm tree.

Carol Alt is hot.
I reserve judgement of hotness on those I have not seen, but I give BG all the benefit of the doubt I can without being a creepazoid.
Besides, I still say grody now and then.

You are a Rooster tease!

Rook!
Pshaw!
Have you been trying to think of the perfect comment for more than two years now?
Posted by: blue girl | August 28, 2007 at 05:50 PM
Im a little late on reading this post but I was wondering where you found that pick of the hippie girl and guy? How can I get to see the rest of it? Oh and if you have a notice saying it links to over 18 content and the pic there you cant get in trouble for anything anyway.
It helps to learn the laws
