ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Hello, thanks for coming to this page. Here’s what you should know.

This is me. I’m vacationing in Australia picking M&M’s out of my dress. That’s what I’m all about - living life on the edge; picking out M&M’s is wild and unpredictable behavior. That’s just me.

I like fruit candy and tivo. I’m learning to cook. I don’t like whispering or watching guys do thumb circles on their dates’ shoulders or backs; it grosses me out, especially while I’m eating. I’m really bad about using my blinkers. I never win anything. I eat late at night.

I love to write and eat snacks. I’m going to be honest: I’m all about Taco Bell, Cool Ranch Doritos, and watching soccer. I used to wear a soccer ball necklace all the time but it was stolen from me in a liquor store shooting gone bad. Here’s a photo of me showing my dedication to the game:

This is how bad I suck at photoshop:

Finally, I love animals. Here is an animal I rescued from a local shelter. He was neglected and underfed by his original owner. When I approached him in his cage at the shelter, he opened his mouth wide and rolled his eyes, indicating intense hunger. I unwrapped a yellow starburst and pushed it into his cage. He turned away. “Fine,” I said, irritated. I unwrapped the cherry starburst, and he ate it greedily. Anyhow, now I am his caregiver. His name is Uncle Feo. You can’t get too close to him because he’s kind of violent; he bit the neighbor kid’s thumb off, but he’s real sweet for about 15 minutes after he’s been fed.

Let me know what you’re thinking, or if you have any ideas for a blog I can write. I’m willing to entertain children at birthday parties for lots of money.

Alright, good talk.

    When you find that job you’re looking for, put in a good word for me ;-)

  3. abarclay12 Says:

    I will. Too bad I know nothing about food; otherwise we could join forces.

  4. Alyssa Tamayo (I'm kind of a big deal) Says:

    when im famous, will you be my PA/stylist/security/on the road pal?
    i would have an actual assistant to do the actual work like get the starbucks, youd just have the title so i could put you on payroll.

    or you could be my biographer..

    think about it. id start you at a hundred thou.
    bonus on christmas and arbor day.

  5. Extra P. Says:

    Well, for starters, I think you could help me sort my M&Ms. Would you feel wierd if I wanted to pay you for that?

  6. abarclay12 Says:

    No, not at all. I will sort M&M’s with class and dignity.

  7. shorty1321 Says:

    Dammit…now i really want Taco Bell…

  8. abarclay12 Says:

    I’m seriously all about Taco Bell. I enjoyed it today.

  9. Extra P. Says:

    I’m the only person in my family who likes Taco Bell. I hardly ever get my way.

  10. abarclay12 Says:

    Damn shame.

  11. Carlos Says:

    We like the picture. How do you get a writing site like this? Email me.

  12. Delilah Says:

    Taco Bell is one of my favorite places to eat. Anyways, every time i go there i seem to order the same things. Although I like it very much, I was wondering if you had any suggestions of what to try, since of course you love it so much!

  13. abarclay12 Says:

    I suggest trying a bean taco. You just say, “Yes, I’d like a taco but with beans instead of meat.” Oh, it’s delicious. I’m not a vegetarian by any means, but it’s just so refreshing. You’ll love it. I usually eat 2 and follow it up with a hostess chocolate cupcake.

  14. fperez Says:

    you tried that extreme beef quesadilla yet? pretty extreme. so did the m& ms fall in there, or is that your secret m & m stash?

  15. abarclay12 Says:

    They were missiled into my dress. A food fight that got out of hand.

  16. jspond Says:

    That’s hot.

  18. abarclay12 Says:

    those douchebags can do way better.

  19. D. Peace Says:

    I also enjoy Taco Bell and M&M’s.

    I love your blog, as you don’t seem to take yourself too seriously. In a world where every blog must feature depressed rants about suicide or screeching political diatribes, a light-hearted blog is a beautiful thing.

  20. yolanda Says:

    have you ever tried the supreme chalupa or the mexican pizza? they’re so good!!!!! i just had it today and it made my day!

  21. abarclay12 Says:

    I’m afraid of the chalupa. Should I be?

  22. Extra P. Says:

    I usually go for one grilled stuft burrito and a mexican pizza. Because that’s how I roll, that’s why.

  23. ajjones Says:

    Thanks for your comment. Moving is really hard but New York is so much fun so it’s worth it.

  24. abarclay12 Says:

    Cool. You’ll update your blog so your fans will know how you’re doing, right?

  25. davidquesada Says:

    Why does whispering gross you out? Never heard that one before…

  26. abarclay12 Says:

    I don’t know. It’s just one of those things.

  27. Danny Says:

    Jail bait.

  28. abarclay12 Says:

    Say what?

  29. Brock Landers Says:

    How about a link exchange sweety?

  30. abarclay12 Says:

    I put your site on my blogroll for all to enjoy because it’s funny as hell, and because who doesn’t love the hottest of all the myspacers??

  31. Extra P. Says:

    Awww, look, little soccer girl!

  32. abarclay12 Says:

    Yes, picture day brought out the best in me.

  33. wazoo Says:

    Aloha stranger. I put your site on my blogroll, because of two reasons: first - you love taco’s as well. second - you carry on a damn good blog. Maybe you will put me to your blogroll to?

    Bye! Wazoo
    wazoo.wordpress.com

  34. abarclay12 Says:

    Absolutely. Your blog is hilarious. I’m doing it right this second.

  35. Fuxy Gillespie Says:

    What you had me at liking soccer and lost me because you like Taco Bell, boooo. Well if its any consolation I would bang you. :0)

  36. Extra P. Says:

    I just never get comments like that, which is a shame, because quite frankly, it WOULD be a great deal of consolation to me if my readers just wanted to bang me.

  37. abarclay12 Says:

    I paid my elderly neighbor to write that.

  38. yolanda Says:

    Don’t be afraid of the chalupa. it’s the next best thing to sleeping with mr. clooney. the only thing to be afraid of is that if you take a bite of it, it might just want to take a bite out of you. you should be lucky you don’t have to do anything illegal to get one. They dont allow fast food in my retirement home so i have to get someone to sneak it in for me. if you dont want the meat, im pretty sure they would be glad to subsitute the beans in there for you. try it out. my grandaughter always tells me to try new things! God Bless

  39. abarclay12 Says:

    Wow. The next best thing to sleeping with George Clooney? Or is there anothere Mr. Clooney? That’s pretty serious. I might have to try one tonight.

  40. Max Says:

    I know you wouldn’t sleep with George Clooney. If I gave you my phone number, would you please call it? I’ve not bothered you about it for a whil. I still like this website.

  41. Extra P. Says:

    Man, they just don’t make quality stalkers any more. If you’re going to obsess over someone, do them the courtesy of using spellcheck, or staying up late into the night reading and rereading your comment to make sure it strikes just the right tone.

  42. freekicker Says:

    Hehe nice blog…if you spill M&Ms that often, then maybe I can help you pick them up ;)
    Keep blogging and thanks for the comment

  43. abarclay12 Says:

    Extra P - I always wondered about Max’s spellcheck, and he always mentions his phone number, but then he never gives it to me. He’s a blog-tease.

    Freekicker - Thanks for volunteering to help me get those chocolate candies out of my dress. I appreciate the gesture.

  44. Alyssa Tamayo Says:

    hey, do you have a myespacio??

  45. abarclay12 Says:

    I had one for about 4 days before I got all freaked out anad cancelled it. Maybe it was the crack though, I’m not sure. Either way, no myspace.

  46. The Magic Cauldron Says:

    erm.. your dog freaks me out!

  47. abarclay12 Says:

    Yes, thank you. He has no redeeming qualities whatsoever and we have no relationship other than he doesn’t bite me anymore. But there’s just somthing charming about him.

  48. deepinthejordan Says:

    I will only write more blogs if we go out to some form of a lunch and i can tell you about how I got kicked out of my house for 45 minutes but then was allowed back in because Yvonne thought that Larry the therapist (my number one fan) would get mad at her for throwing me on the rough streets of Fullerton. You think I’m kidding…think again son. seriously, E-mazing stories for you. Oh, and Damien threw my cell phone in the pool, so…. feel free to call the Rosary pay phone, I’ve been taking all my personal calls there. But if I don’t answer it’s because I had to take a second job to pay for my bail bond. Wow…summer has been so successful and it’s only the first week in July. Respect.

  49. abarclay12 Says:

    Wow. Do you need me to look up a good halfway house for you? I don’t mind. Let’s go to lunch for sure. But you won’t eat like a cavewoman because you’re starving and on the streets will you? I can’t be seen in public with someone scooping their food with their fingers, so let me know about that. Yeah, but I’m free pretty much, let me think about it, . . . ummm, yeah - any day of the week. Text me when your tiny phone dries out.

  50. deepinthejordan Says:

    Well I guess lunch is out of the question if that’s how you really feel. That’s ridiculous, I use to eat lunch with you even though you gnawed on pieces of lightly-salted honey baked ham from 1993. But that just shows who is more like Jesus….me.

  51. jspond Says:

    I like when people say “is that cool?”
    It usually follows something that really isn’t cool.
    Example: Hey I have two Angel tickets…but I’m not taking you. Can you watch my dog? Is that cool?

  52. abarclay12 Says:

    Yeah, that’s total b.s. It’s never cool when it starts with that question.

  53. cowgalutah Says:

    Oh my gosh, I had to put a link to you here from my sad little blog! I have never met anyone else who can say exactly what I’m thinking. I’m really meaning that as a complement, just in case that came out strangely. The Ladies… sent me over and I just sat here at work all day and read and laughed till my co-workers told me to put a sock in it. Anyhow keep up the great work!

  54. Extra P. Says:

    My coworkers never tell me to put a sock in it. It’s always “is that guy dead, or asleep?”

  55. abarclay12 Says:

    Cowgalutah - Thanks for that. I have nothing better to do than to write, so I’ll try and keep coming up with good stuff.

    Extra P - Maybe you should provide your coworkers with a small mirror they can put under your mouth to see if you’re still alive. That’d be the honorable thing to do.

  56. nahole Says:

    i once fucking dropped everything and made a run for the border after seeing a goddamn crunch wrap supreme commercial in the middle of the might. It was the best fucking thing I ever ate. I’ve tried them since but all of them have tasted like goddamn shit. I think the fucking people who work at taco bell might wipe their asses on the tacos. Fucking assholes.

  57. abarclay12 Says:

    Totally. What’s their problem anyway? How hard is it to make a f***** crunch wrap supreme?

  58. Simonne Says:

    Hilarious! Off to read more now :)

  59. rachelmatos Says:

    i found the job. in los angeles its called fit modeling. im serious.

  60. abarclay12 Says:

    Ummm, let’s talk about this word “fit.” Just how fit does one need to be?

  61. ryanorulz Says:

    We have Taco Bell in Australia?

  62. abarclay12 Says:

    I wish you did. I didn’t see any while I was there, and it made me sad. I was picking out the M&M’s from my dress while I was in Australia. It was during a food fight. But the Taco Bell is here in the good old USA.

  63. Mary Says:

    USA #1

  64. abarclay12 Says:

    Not #2 or #3. #1.

  65. nahole Says:

    Fuck yeah, the usa is fucking piss. I guess that’s better than being shit.

  66. abarclay12 Says:

    Dear A-hole, what do you think of how hot it is this summer? I’d like to know your thoughts.

  67. ForTheLoveOfMoney Says:

    Apparently to not only having a successful blog, you are a credible resource to quote on the topic of “For love or money”. Your thoughts are a quotable insight into “You and Your Money: A No-Stress Guide to Becoming Financially Fit”. I guess your date, Michael, may actually have been demonstrating a knack for financial speed dating. Maybe it was his lack of stimulating conversation topics on something called a “date”, or I may be completely off by saying what has the world succumbed to when this is the norm for conversation on a night of lovely fine dining. Well, in the future, I presume there’s always the vacation to look forward to with company sponsored motivational seminars equipped with a 5 star hotel and fully stocked mini bar to ease the pain. Anyways, you’re pretty much a big deal. Check out the links…

    http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/RTGAM.20070524.wxlmoney24/BNStory/lifeFamily/home

    You’re also being quoted quite frequently in other blogs regarding this issue.

    This blog is too funny to be real. Thanks for the laughs!

  69. abarclay12 Says:

    Nice. Thanks.

  70. yupri Says:

    really interestin blog ♥

  71. Sakib Al Mahmud Says:

    Sorry, peoples are talking about Taco Bell. But, i have no idea about Taco Bell. :(
    Your blog looks cool ..keep rock on…

  72. abarclay12 Says:

    Yupri - What’s the song that plays when I click onto your link? I like it.

  73. hakansuer Says:

    is it a dog, I can’t figure that out.

  74. abarclay12 Says:

    Uncle Feo? He’s part dog, part 90 year-old man.

  75. letters Says:

    I’ve discovered that your humour kills me, so I now have one more thing to live for. This means you are now on my blogroll, and if grovelling is what it might take to get me on yours, so be it.

  76. abarclay12 Says:

    Please, no groveling. Your poem about feminine hygeine was clear proof of your genius.

  77. Patrick Says:

    I love me some taco bell. Nothing quite like a mexican laxative with cheese and sour cream. of course, it’s industrial strength so the cheese is just there as a flow regulator. nice hot photos btw; makes me want to invest in m&m mars - so did the candy shells smear color all over you or what; let’s get to the important stuff

  78. TC Says:

    Dear Hottie with a Body,

    I’ve been reading your blog religiously ever since you sent me the link via e-mail a few months ago, and it’s just mahvelous dahling (those are the European spellings). I have just one concern.

    Why has there been nothing written in reference to Bat Boy? Have you outgrown your obsession with the deformed little creature?

    Because let me tell you, I see that little guy’s picture on tabloid covers at the market ALL the time. Furthermore, every time I look upon him I find myself thinking fondly of you.

    Does that freak you out? That I associate you with a mutant?

  79. abarclay12 Says:

    No it doesn’t freak me out. Bat Boy is a hero, and naturall you’d associae anything and everything heroic with me.

    You’re right though. I guess I’ve been worried that the public won’t accept my dedicationto Bat Boy. But maybe it’s time?? In London now there’s Bat Boy: The Musical. I wish I could see it.

  80. nahole Says:

    Holy shit - that shot of your dogs on the front page gave me a fucking boner and a half. Keep that fucking shit up sister, and you’ll be fucking keeping me up too (if you know what I fucking mean).

  81. Extra P. Says:

    That was pretty subtle.

  82. TC Says:

    I didn’t know men could have a boner and then another half of a boner on top of the first one…

  83. abarclay12 Says:

    It’s very rare, but certain women have the magical power to inspire such events.

  84. nahole Says:

    it aso depends on how many fucking cocks a guy has

  85. abarclay12 Says:

    Dear A-Hole, Isn’t it quite rare for a man to have multiple penises? Would this be a good thing or a freakish thing?

  86. nahole Says:

    Yeah, well, you’re fucking right about that. I’m a one cock man myself so a boner and a half for me does require magical inter-fucking-vention.

  87. jspond Says:

    Anton Conti is my friend.

  88. abarclay12 Says:

    You guys still hang out? I didn’t know. That’s really great. I’m pretty sure he killed JonBenet Ramsay.

  89. woo wooo Says:

    I cannot find the llama content.

  90. Bella Says:

    Damn girl, you are so hilarious! I have to go read some more….. Have a great weekend and I’ll be back!

  91. abarclay12 Says:

    Thanks for stopping by.

  92. Paul Baylay Says:

    Now what on eath made me think i would be the first to comment here??? I think my brain is doing half days at the moment. Where were we? Ah yes Taco Bell..

    1. Are you taking oders?
    2. Can you deliver in 30 mins?

    And what does “learning to cook mean”? Is it so hard to read the back of a frozen pizza box?

  93. cowgalutah Says:

    Ok so I already knew this is a great place to stop by and visit, but now the secret is out. http://paulbaylay.wordpress.com/2007/07/26/sex-drugs-etiquette/ stop by and read how renowned you are!!!

  94. abarclay12 Says:

    Wow. That is excellent.

  95. cowgalutah Says:

    Just the truth.

  96. shenanigans Says:

    why didn’t you visit new zealand when you were in the antipodes? was is something we said??

  97. la petite princesse Says:

    Ok. Here’s the deal. I think I’m in love and I think it’s you and I know we shouldn’t rush into things but I’ve already checked out your blog and if you check out mine and read it and love me too maybe you can write my about me page and it will be amazing because it’s just empty right now and you are amazing and if you don’t love me that’s ok you can still write my about me page and i will send you a pack of YO! MTV raps cards and we’ll be great friends. Ok?

    http://lapetiteprincesse.com

  98. abarclay12 Says:

    I will read your page asap. Looking forward to it.

  99. prolepticlife Says:

    You’re hilarious.

  100. Chris Says:

    You know I thought that was you dissed DJ on the street the other day. Poor Derek, I ran into him at the bar afterwards and he was heartbroken and distressed…well until that curvy latina walked in. They didn’t stay long…all i caught was something about “shagging” some balls, or maybe it was taking balls to the chin…whatever code words they use in baseball these days! :)

    On a more serious note maybe we should meet up for drinks and compare funny stories one night. You know as one funny blogger to another! :)

  101. abarclay12 Says:

    Our timing was off. Plus, I am a sports fan, and I didn’t want our love to ruin his shot at making the playoffs. His concentration would have been all off, and that wouldn’t have been right of me.

  102. monahan Says:

    i too am disappointed with the lack of batboy content, though am quite pleased with your diet plan of feeding an infant child with your supple breasts. good page.

  103. abarclay12 Says:

    Ha. Thank you. I just want to look good, and if I can feed an infant in the process, well . . . then count me in.

  104. Joe Says:

    That’s what I like about you - you’re always looking out for the greater good. If I could create an award, I’d name it after you. Not something stupid like Nobel Peace Prize either, it would be a totally kick-ass award name. Like “The Barclay Twelve.” You know, like Ocean’s Eleven, except with more.

  105. abarclay12 Says:

    Thank you. I accept that award on behalf of myself and all other heroic people in the world.

  106. Tom Ruff Says:

    What the hell—I don’t know what to think about all this—suggestions???

  107. abarclay12 Says:

    I’m with you Tom Ruff. I don’t know what to say about any of this either.

  108. Tom Ruff Says:

    so apparently by the posts times you are several hours behind my time zone–I’m here in South Carolina–and you?

  109. ND Says:

    Can u help me with my blog?

  110. Frank Says:

    you are the funniest person i know. Keep being absolutely hilarious

  111. abarclay12 Says:

    Thanks Frank. I’ll try, I’ll try.

  112. gspence1173 Says:

    cool site! I digs it.

  113. Extra P. Says:

    I tried the new beefy cheesy melt last week. Damn tasty. I see no reason to experiment further at this point.

  114. Bain Says:

    You’re horribly unfunny. No offense.

    You need to get laid. Like, badly.

    Again, no offense.

  115. abarclay12 Says:

    Thanks Bain. No offense taken whatsoever. Unfortunately I have this rare condition where my vaginal area has grown teeth. The doctors think my twin is trapped inside me. Anyhow, until a team of vaginal-dental specialists can take care of that, they said no sexual activity as it might compromise my partner’s safety. But thanks for the advice.

  116. Extra P. Says:

    That was a nice offer from Bain. And I admire his honesty in saying that he would do it badly.

  117. abarclay12 Says:

    I have nothing but love for my readership.

  118. yojoe Says:

    Way to go with the addition of Maddox to your Blogroll. He has a great site.

  119. abarclay12 Says:

    Love that site. It just kills me.

  120. Robert F Says:

    Vaginal-Dental Specialists, that’s crazy! lol. I don’t know how I got to this blog really, I was looking up stuff people were saying about how badly Rex Grossman sucks and here I am somehow. You are definitely smart, and I was really impressed with the tactful way you dealt with what that Bain guy said to you. All I can see is a tiny pic but you look pretty cute too. :) So anyway I feel a few notches better about prospects in the single life today, preesh8 it. :)

    Robert

  121. abarclay12 Says:

    Thanks for coming by Robert. It is odd that the quest for Rex Grossman bashings led you here, but whatever. Glad to have you. Come back from time to time. Things are getting stranger and stranger.

  122. Brian Says:

    I just have to tell you that the foot fetish picture made me laugh out loud. You have a great sense of humor!

    I’m guessing the A in abarclay12 stands for Andrea and it was you who left the comment on my blog today? I actually already thanked another Andrea but she was kind enough to inform me I was probably insane. Which lead me to you, process of elimination and what not. Anyways, glad you enjoyed it, I send out an email whenever I post anything so I can add you if you’d like, or I can go on just sending it to my Mom, Grampy, and the weird guy from the train station in the balloon hat.

    Thanks again and oh, I’ll keep a keen eye out for that soccer necklace.

    Hey, without Taco Bell I would’ve starved to death at least 1,095 times
    in the last three years alone.

  131. abarclay12 Says:

    If you’re being serious, then that’s amazing because I’m the exact same.

    And I heartily recommend “Bueno!” also. But it’s fairly new and I don’t know how
    widespread it is yet…

    BTW, fantastic blog!

    Hello,
    In an old blog you posted you mentioned that you owned a carrier pigeon. If this was true, I was wondering how you got it/what organization/breeder etc. you went through.

    I really need all the damn info I can get, as I totally want a carrier pigeon and after hours of calling every bird-housing residence within 50 miles of me I have come up with nothing.

    Much thanks in advance!

  134. abarclay12 Says:

    2Years - Thanks for checking in. I’ll think about “Bueno!”

    Ry - My carrier pigeon died. It was a gift from the older man down the street who used to brush my hair. Since he died, I don’t know how he got it. If I find out how to get one, I’ll let you know.

    Haha, it reminds me of this: http://www.advertolog.com/paedia/reels/2007/09/20/507850/

    You have to download the ad, but it’s funny. And that could be you, only in man-form. Drag king (I think?) much?

    You’ve been to Aus? Awesome. Was it uberly fun?

  136. bronsonfive Says:

    So I’ve been reading your blog religiously now since I discovered it last week. If you’re looking for a new header, I’d very much like to draw you one. It’d be fun. Let me know.

  137. abarclay12 Says:

    Cool. What do you have in mind. I’m interested.

  138. bronsonfive Says:

    Let me know the size of your header and I’ll see what I can do. I was thinking it’d involve a brain. Maybe a llama…

  139. abarclay12 Says:

    This is going to betray my computer ignorance, but what do you mean about my header? Should I bust out the ruler and measure it, or does it say somewhere in fancy gigabite langague how big it is?

  140. Brian Says:

    Your header is 750px by 140px. :)

  141. abarclay12 Says:

    Ahhh! Thank you so very much.

  142. Extra P. Says:

    Your header dimensions are the biggest reason I come here.

  143. bronsonfive Says:

    Alright, it’s done. I am not sure if you’ll like it or not, but it might make you smile. I need to e-mail it to you. You can find my e-mail address in my blog under the “suggestions” tab. Shoot me an e-mail and I will shoot you the picture.

  144. Elvi Patterson! Says:

    Your about me used to be “About You” but now it just reeks of desperation and wanton e-romance.

    JD peed in the backyard, next to the swing set. JD will be 5 in December and he has a reputation for not wanting to stop what he’s doing outside and lettin’ it go! Nice to meet you!

  146. abarclay12 Says:

    I like the way JD operates. He’s his own man.

  147. janetleigh Says:

    O, gawd, you are a *hoot* lady! I haven’t laughed this hard in days, I tell ya. I’m so glad I check out others’ blogrolls; I come from The Argonaut tonight. Boy am I glad to know you are here on the ‘net because I’ve gotta have my laughter “fix” daily. It’s the only exercise I do regularly. It’s what keeps me sane. So, here’s the deal. I’m going to provide *my* readers with a link to you. Why? Because I *love* my readers.

  148. abarclay12 Says:

    Thanks so much.

  149. romi41 Says:

    I was surprised and shocked to learn that I have never commented on this page.

    Well…..200 comments into my “Leaky Brain” comments (haha), have I told you that your blog makes me laugh until I pee/throw up/get the runs?

    Thanks, you’re a funny kind of gal :-)

  150. sittingpugs Says:

    Thanks for commenting on my blog. I’m not a Packers fan, but I’m not against them. Sadly, I don’t have any pugs.

  151. abarclay12 Says:

    ROMI - I couldn’t believe you hadn’t commented on my ABOUT THE AUTHOR page either. But now that the Canadian and American dollars are equal, I forgive you.

    Sittinpugs - well, thanks for coming over to the leaky brain. You should look into getting a pug. They’re funny to look at.

  152. romi41 Says:

    Haha…well here’s a little tid-bit for YOU, Miss A-12….you have ALSO failed to leave a mark on my “About Me” page…how the HELL did we let that happen? Talk about a mutual over-sight ;-)

  153. abarclay12 Says:

    What?? That cannot be. Someone must have erased it. I’ll check it out.

  154. armorfab Says:

    I am sorry my blog made you sad. You have a lot of good blogs, and I’m sure to leep reading. Thanks

  155. abarclay12 Says:

    Hey Joe. Thanks for stopping by. Hang in there.

  156. armorfab Says:

  157. rachel Says:

    you should write about the fact that you were once an orphan in columbia. you know, your parents were mindless crack fiends, so good ‘ol columbian social services decided to take you into their orphanage. you could then go on to a clever story about your adoption to irish-latina-itlalian parents and the day you realized that you were actually adopted. possibly, you could also inform your readers of the story of your search for you real parents. it might involve machines guns and a little white powder.

  158. abarclay12 Says:

    Rachel - How do you know about so much of my life?? These were secrets I’ve tried to keep buried for many years. I am still searching for my real parents. If you know of their whereabouts, you must tell me.

  159. hmillic Says:

    Hey, thanks so much for your compliments, I really appreciate them! I love your blog too!

    Thanks for reading!!!!

  160. abarclay12 Says:

    I love it. I’m still laughing about that poor QVC precious moments pusher. Poor bastard.

  161. lakitchensink Says:

    We at Lights Camera Caption think you have beautiful feet. After such sweet bumps, how could we not offer to massage them. Please consider this an open invitation.

    Much love.

  162. abarclay12 Says:

    Thank you so much. My feet are sensual and fresh. They’re like leafs of romaine lettuce floating on a sea of butter. Much love and respek back to you.

    hey you’re in australia atm? rad- that’s where i’m from. enjoying it?

  164. abarclay12 Says:

    I was just visiting Austalia, I had some friends living over there, but I loved every second of it.

  165. King Solomon Says:

    King Solomon’s Court hereby rules your blog - “hi-larious” (and i thought that was my word). actually i’ve only read a few entries but you are one clever little Chips Ahoy cookie. Too bad about Mr. Potato Head smuggling stuff. Not a good look.
    Anyways, stop by the Court sometime. It’s more than possible you wouldn’t like it. But that’s ok. I didn’t like tomatoes until i grew up, but even then, only with salads.
    ok it’s late, happy blogging :)

    K.S.C.

  168. seriousmintyflavour Says:

    how to get free starbucks coffee: go in wearing provocative clothing at 9:00 PM. order something under $5. present them with a $100 bill. they won’t be able to make change for you, so they give the drink free.

    but i’m not sure why i included the provocative clothing part. i mean, just because i work at taboo gentleman’s club doesn’t automatically mean i can’t dress provocatively all the time. sexy-time doesn’t only happen at the office…or on the pole.

  169. abarclay12 Says:

    King Soloman - Thanks for that high praise. I will definitely stop by the Court. Is it KingSolomanscourt.wordpress.com?? And about that “hi-larious” . . . someone else I know claimed to have originated it, but I feel strongly that it’s mine, mine, mine. Ok, maybe not. I love it when people use it and say it. And Mr. Potato Head really fell into the wrong crowd. If he needed money, he should have asked.

    2.0 - I’m not sure what “Americo de Thunk Different” means, but I like the way it sounds. I might puffy paint it onto a tshirt if that’s ok with you 2.0.

    Dogslol - Thanks. I love this blogging business. It keeps me up late at night. I appreciate you stopping by.

    Seriousminty - Woah there. What has gotten into you seriousminty?? However, I like your idea very much, and I will try it tomorrow night.

  170. deepinthejordan Says:

    I LOVE the picture of you seducing the camera with those naughty little devil horns. Plus, the way you are so flirtaciously holding your cellie with the no teeth sex me up smile is true art. it might be my first tattoo.

  171. abarclay12 Says:

    Sorry, I own the copywrite to that amazing pose.

  172. mat g. Says:

    Thx for the good wishes. I’ll have an extra sip of the flask in honor of your drinking in my honor. That’s deep…I loved reading your blog. I’m going to link to it in my Blogroll…if you’re feelin’ it, do the same!

    I’m going to go post some of my favorite search terms.

  173. seriousmintyflavour Says:

    hey ABC. I just found the perfect notebook for your “ideas”. I’m quite stoked about it and I’m sure you’ll like it too. I’ve been writing in it with crack and things seem to be working out quite well. I believe that the nature of my ideas compliment your literary and drug-laced style. And, the fact that you’re an urban outfitters shopper makes you all the better.

    have you ever gone to the gypsy den over at that lab? Laura told me that gypsies have a negative connotation. While in Europe, they attempted to eat off her plate and throw their babies at her. I’m not o.k. with that. Why would someone eat at an establishment that promotes the flinging of children?
    I didn’t think so.

  174. abarclay12 Says:

    mat - You should definitely write a post about your most outrageous search terms. The people need to know.

    Seriousminty - I have stories about gypsies that you wouldn’t believe.

  176. Couchptato10 Says:

    Soccer and taco bell is by far the best things in life. How could we live without it? And Uncle Feo is my hero, he looks so joyous and friendly. Ever since my girlfriend introduced me to your blog, I couldn’t stop reading it. Your writing is humorous and amazing…truely an inspiration to me and my sock puppet friend, George. Anyway, keep up the good work, I look forward to many more of your blog entries :P

    Loco

  177. thatpessimist Says:

    Now i realize people use the “about” sections to praise peoples blogs.. so now its my turn for you, my dear.

    #1: You write random stories, I like that.
    #2: They involve lions biting children.
    #3: You are female. Females don’t usually write about things like that.

    Add these up and you have one hell of a blog. Thank you.

  178. Aaron from FullTiltMarriage.com Says:

    Your blog is hilarious. I rolled you at both mine.

  179. abarclay12 Says:

    Arm Jerker J - Thanks for that. I’m glad you like my “about.” I’ve always had nice “about.” And I appreciate youcomin by the Leaky B. I wish I could just write all day and still pay my bills.

    Loco - First of all, thanks to your girlfriend for intro’ing my blog to you. I owe her for that. And taco bell and soccer - LOVE THEM BOTH. I wish it was easier to play soccer while eating a taco bell taco, but that’s kind of hard. I’m glad Geroge enjoys my blog too. The sock puppets have always been hard to impress, so I feel really good about that.

    thatpessimistJay - Thank you for 1 & 2. I love stories about animals attacking humans, especially children - how hilarious is that?! And thank you for saying I’m female. My dad wanted me to be a boy, and after all the surgeries ended up being too expensive, I just had to remain female. Thanks for saying I have a good blog though - I appreciate any time you come by to check in. - AB

    Aaron - Hey there Aaron. Thanks for that compliment, and the word “hilarious” is pretty much my favorite word ever. I can’t wait to chiggity check out Full Tilt.

  180. Aaron from FullTiltMarriage.com Says:

    Thanks for coming by my “new born” blog. It will fill out nicely soon, right now I just have a few posts.

    On picking a spouse:

    Find someone you can’t live without who can’t live without you, marry them and keep reminding each other of that fact.

  181. Jet Says:

    U were ugly as a kid and U’re ugly now. Dream on.

  182. Gaurav Says:

    Hey…your blog is hilarious!!…” soccer, tacobell and humor” well I am a fan of all these three things…so guess I would be coming back to your blog regularly now!!!…have added your blog to my blogroll!!!

  183. abarclay12 Says:

    Aaron - Good advice. I guess the postman is out. I can’t live without him, but he quit my route, so I guess he can live without me. But it’s better that I know this now.

    Jet - Do you think I’ll be ugly as an elderly woman?? I mean, you know how they say if you’re ugly as a child and an adult, you might have a chance to be better looking later?

    Gaurav - Thanks for coming to the Leaky Brain. I look forward to checking out your blog. I like your avatar.

  184. robert Says:

    Robert - Word.

    Thomas - How you you know I can do the robot?? I’m really good at it. It’s one of my special talents.

  187. Melanie Says:

    You are a great and entertaining writer - glad I found your blog on here. You have a good blogroll too! Thanks on the comment about my job situation - I have to get off of the computer soon to call and do a phone interview… AHH!

    MELANIE

  188. abarclay12 Says:

    Good Luck Melanie. I feel luck is in the air.

  189. Elvi Patterson! Says:

    I have a question. When you show your dog the autographed picture of Bob Barker. Is he instantly spayed and neutered?

  190. abarclay12 Says:

    He actually covers his eyes with his paws when he sees Bob Barker. He’s already been neutered, but I think he relives the terror each time he sees Barker.

  191. twps Says:

    I think you should have an OVERHEARD category for your blog. The high school-ers in Seattle story cracked me up!

    Thomas :)

  192. abarclay12 Says:

    Great idea. Those high schoolers were so funny. I was trying to grade papers, but all I could do was listen to their convo. It was too good.

  193. John Says:

    Stumbled on yr blog for some stupid fact I was looking up. And I got lost in the gaity. Gay-itty? Oh well, thanks. I wrote your site down, soon to be consumed by newspapers, notebooks, dirty dishes, razor blades, etc. I’ll try and get back. But tomorrow never knows what today did…J

  194. abarclay12 Says:

    Hey John. Thanks for stopping by. I know the name of my blog might get swallowed whole by your goods, so do me a favor and tattoo it on your arm or something. You can always get it lasered off later.

  195. Sanity For Sale Says:

    Your blog is so cool man!! yeehaa

  196. Cate Says:

    I’m so glad to know that ther are others out there with the M&M in the shirt problem…or is it not so much a problem? Anyway, your blog is as addicting as a well made crunch wrap supreme with extra tomatoes.

  197. Hanie Says:

    Great posts! Adding you to my blogroll now.

  198. abarclay12 Says:

    Sanity - Thanks man. I’m glad you like it. I’m going to allow the public to by shares in it soon.

    Cate - It’s kind of a . . . sexy problem. And I’m glad to know that I’m not alone. You’ve also given me the HIGHEST honor imaginable - as addicting as a well-made crunch wrap supreme with extra tomatos??!! You know I am a fool for Taco Bell. Thank You so very much.

    Hamie - Thanks. What’s your blog called so I can check it out?

  199. Hanie Says:

    Oh yeah, sexy problem ;-) I park my posts at http://lifeisonebigstage.wordpress.com

    Loco - I am all over that Miss Puerto Rico story. My brain is scheming ideas.

    Media Outrage - No prob. Thanks for the visitation.

  205. mjm Says:

    Abarcs- congrats on the big 100,000. I cant wait to record my song, for exclusive release on these pages, to comemorate your big day. I talked to my ex Kelly Clarkson, she said we can do it “duet style”. Im not sure if she was talking about my song though.
    Anyhow, many many congrats.

  206. abarclay12 Says:

    Thanks mjm. You are a very special commenter, so I would absolutely love if you and Kelly Clarkson “dueted” to celebrate the big 100,000 million hits. See you soon.
