Jordache Basics

Jordache doesn't email too often, but when he does, he comes strong.

I told Jordan he could take over my blog when I finally quit, and this was his response:

"I was thinking about starting a blog, but I'm afraid if it becomes more
popular than Patttttt's, it would affect our friendship. I mean, who
wants
to read the blog of a married man.......
Woke up today at 6am. Betsy woke me up 4 times in the middle of the
night
because I was sleeping in the wrong position and we had to switch
spots. Had
egg beaters, the equivalent of eggs for you non-married folks, as well
as a
glass of grapefruit juice. Read the NY Times because the LA Times is
much
less internationally acclaimed. Hopped in my new "sled" and drove to
work
listening to NPR. Pulled up and told Juan to change my oil today and
detail
my new "sled." I'm pretty sure he didn't understand my idiosyncratic
speech
pattern because when I picked my "sled" up at 5pm it wreaked of buche.
Did
some comercial real estate business. Met up with Jason for our 4 drink
minimum happy hour before heading to Trader Joes for some fair trade,
low
carb brown rice and skinless chicken breast. Snuck in a couple bottles
of
wine and some tequila with ginger ale (shhhhhhh, don't tell the Zet),
since
Jordan puked my remaining booze up in our garbage disposal. Was
harassed and
harangued by Hollywood DK for no less than 2 hours on no more than 2
subjects. Came home and watched Golden Girls and went to bed.

I mean really, who wants to read that bullshit in a blog."

As much as I want to turn this right around in Basics' face, I can only concede defeat.

Trader Joe's is great!

I'm more of an egg whites girl.
Egg beaters give me the creeps.

I'm all about taking something delicious and getting rid of what made it so - in this case, the fat.

Is that Patttttt's wife two posts above me? Hello Pattttt's wife, congratulations.

I'm still waiting for a whiffleball related post.

Beson - I was not aware of that, but thank you for letting me know.

I will administer the necessary guilt trip.

pat, jordan wrote one great email. however, he only wrote one. you know and i know that maintaining a blog means more than one great entry.

keep your chin up. i'm not sure he would have the stamina or perseverence to do what you are doing.

Thanks for the kind words Des. I still can't shake the feeling that this thing is coming to an end. I am happy that the blog has made it this far, however.

These comments are all true and valid. I did write one good email. It is more difficult to keep up a strong blog. I don't have the Bushesque resolve that Patttttt. You do serve as inspiration to me though. I only hope I am the next Tucker Max of the blogosphere

BTW I am poaching my email and posting it on my blog. I'm pretty sure it will be way more hilarious at jordo1340.blogspot.com
