Kate Middleton Ring. Something Royally Weird.

As I wrote on Twitter, I think there's something weird about Prince Andrew giving his mom's ring to the hottie Kate Middleton as an engagement ring because when her hand is down there stroking it, isn't it going to remind him of his mom since it's such an identifiable ring?

Or am I the only one that would think that?

And for the record, this Kate Middleton is way hotter than Princess Di. I never thought Princess Di was hot at all. Maybe a little cute but...

And if I ever meet a royal I'm not bowing down or giving them any royal treatment. What the hell did they ever do to deserve to be treated differently? Huh?

1975 Clothes Were Sweet! Check Out My Man! Charm Bracelet.

What the?

This is what you get when you search "1975 Fashion". I was in 5th grade then. And even though I never sported one of those hats, the blue shirt on the right looks VERY familiar. I think I had a very similar one for special occasions.

And it reminds me of one Christmas when my parents gave me a charm bracelet to wear on those special occasions. I remember my dad saying, "You see son, men don't really wear jewelry like ladies. You've got your watch, your wedding ring when you get married but that's about it. But these charm bracelets are the new thing. I got mine for a sales conference a few months ago and I get a LOT of compliments for it. It makes you stand out".

When I wore my fancy disco shirt the next time I remember him saying, "Now that's the perfect outfit for the charm bracelet".

So he gets the charm bracelet and tries to show me how it's supposed to be exposed a bit so you can see it over the sleeve. But it shouldn't be on the outside of the sleeve. See what I mean? No? Well either did I because it's impossible to have it both ways.

So he loosened one of the links and the next thing you know it was practically falling off of my hand. He was too frustrated to fix the link so he was like, "Yeah that's it. There you go. That's how you wear it".

I remember feeling like a chick wearing it. I wonder if I still have it in my "Dr Zibbs box from the past" that I keep in my attic. Probably not. I probably chucked it in the woods when I was in 7th grade.

Various Things About Bloggers That Read TBY. Link Love.

Here are some random things about some bloggers that read my blog. Maybe I'll make this a regular feature. Please visit their blogs and tell them Zibbs sent you. Remember, the more we mention each other's blogs, the more popular our blogs become. But of course it makes much more sense to mention a blog like mine - because it's a famous one. Choose wisely.

- Wendy B is a sweetheart and I love her smile. And she's a great jewelry designer.

- Earl and Slyde are two dudes that are as close to my group of real life guy friends that I know in my blogosphere.

- Ask Alice - is someone that has been absent on TBY for ages but I'm glad she's back. It kind of bums me out the number of people that have dropped out since last fall. I hope she's back for good.

- Jill from Caffeine Court is a long time reader. We're the same age and she went to a neighboring high school. I'd be surprised if we didn't meet within the next year. She lives in the same neighborhood as Springsteen you know.

- I think Scandalous Housewife is sexy. I'm glad that she decided to finally comment on my blog after I guilted her into it.

- I'm offering to help Shawn with her saggy boob issues. Except it's going to be really hard to help without seeing them. I'm a doctor damn it. Maybe she could do one of those construction paper silhouette deals that 1st graders do of their big ass heads. At least it would be a starting point for my diagnosis.

So are any of you fans of any of these bloggers? Also, do you want to be like me? Why don't YOU write a blog post about some other bloggers. Might as well start with highlighting me..just in case you're nervous and all.....
