A brief history. I guess one day I was inspired by Jeff Goldstein's brief conversations with inanimate objects* I decided to talk to a pear in which was sitting on my counter. So, these kind of became an underground hit in the left blogosphere. Some of my commenters loved me_. Some hated me. Same as today.
Me: So..... I guess I should update you on some occurrences.
Pear: I'm all stems.
Me: Where did you get that one? Have you been watching PBS mornings to come up with that kind of elementary comedy?
Pear: Oh so you think you're a badass now that you are a munuvian eh?
Me: Uh...
Pear: You better back the fuck up before you get smacked the fuck up.
Me:
Pear: Pussy cat got your tongue? Or more likely it is a waitress.
Me: I did not have to bring you back.
Pear: I did not have to talk to you either.
Me:
Pear:
Me: So, why are we watching Harry Potter?
Pear: Look dude, I don't have arms... you are obviously the one controlling the remote.
Me:
Pear: So, how is the ever lovely Ms. C.*? :)
Me: She is good. I had coffee with her this morning.
Pear: You make me laugh dumbass. She has your number huh? You said you were giving her up last Saturday. This Saturday you are having coffee with her.
Me: We are friends.
Pear: I smell her on you. I never smell like a grape and they are my friends. I thought liberals were supposed to be reality based.* Get real homie. It is like Mike Jones said "You don't work, you don't eat, you don't grind, you don't shine."
Me: Thanks for the Mike Jones reference. His CD "Who is Mike Jones?" is one of the best I have bought in a while.
"Friends" hmmm, I say, hmmmm, Jess.
Talking is good . . . especially with whipped cream, uh, on the mocha, of course!
Posted by: JulieB at May 1, 2005 10:09 AMEhhh, I like your conversations with fruit better than his. He does spell better, but you are funnier, Jess.
And WHY does this thing not ever "remember personal info" for me? I have NOT YET said anything unfortunate about the whole "mu.nu" thing? What? I should bow down to the "mu.nu" god/dess? sacrifice little furry squeeky things to it? virgins? (oops, fresh out of virgins) snails from my yard?
You're right... that last one wouldn't actually be a sacrifice for me.... for them, yes, me, no.
I am blushing Jules. Thanks.

Welcome to Munuvia, Jess!
Posted by: Tuning Spork at May 1, 2005 05:17 PMThanks for the nice welcome TS. I appreciate it.
Posted by: jess @ LOSLI at May 1, 2005 05:57 PMI've got Firefox, thanks, and every other site seems to get how to save my personal info.
Is it an evil plot by Tuning Spork? hmmm, I say, hmmm.
Posted by: JulieB at May 1, 2005 10:50 PMI dunno Jules. I am officially clueless though I have noticed the same thing with firefox. But it does have dropdowns. U should become an evil munuvian.
Posted by: jess @ LOSLI at May 1, 2005 10:53 PMWouldn't I have to know a little more about... stuff? Blogger is easy to do, and I am techno-stupid. Really, ask Jeremy. He is the poor techy that gets all those questions that start with "How do I...." usually somewhere around midnight on Friday or Saturday is when I do something truly lame to my site, and I show up on his email doorstep, sobbing, oh jeremy, fix (insert current lame boo-boo)
