My nerd score plays as out follows:

20% scored higher (more nerdy),
1% scored the same, and
79% scored lower (less nerdy).

What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:

Mid-Level Nerd. Wow, it takes a lot of hard nerdy practice to reach this level.

Here is The Count's nerd score:

Here's how The Count's nerd score played out:

3% scored higher (more nerdy),

What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:

All hail the monstrous nerd. You are by far the SUPREME NERD GOD!!!

I put this here for us arugula-eating, Jolt! swilling, foreign film-watching, French loving, intellectual snobs the Republicans love to bitch about. Are you a nerd? Take the test!

13 As a 1930s wife, I am Very Poor (Failure) Take the test!

I knew this test was going to end badly.

It must have been that I let my hair become a rat's nest, won't shampoo The Count's hair (he's bald so that's not even an issue), won't give The Count a manicure, don't wipe the milk spout before pouring (I won't say who drinks directly from the milk carton...), and that I don't cook unless it's junk food. I just finished making English toffee so I'm good for something in the kitchen. I'm also not "dainty, perfumed, and feminine", I hate cleaning the house, and I love to complain.

I'm a Wife Of The New Millennium.

Go to my left sidebar, and click on the new graphic for Doingfine.org. It's new. I've been posting over there, and it's a great little site. They're looking for readers and posters. It's a site about the good things in life, and it's great to find something like that on the web, as opposed to the usual Emo bitching about life.

Head on over and give your support!

I added a graphic for the new web site "doingfine.org" on the left sidebar. Are you doing fine in your professional and personal life? Want to talk about how you got there? Want to be a positive influence on others? Then check out "doingfine.org". It looks like a great web site to me.

I laughed so hard when I read this list that I bled out of my eyes. The Phoenix put out a list of The 100 Unsexiest Men of 2007.

Number one is Donald Trump. No explanation necessary.

Here are a few that made the list, with my commentary. I also include his number on the list.

Since my blog is a The T Word Free Zone, I will only mention that Scientology's Wonder Boy came in at 100.

Eric Estrada (88): To quote the site, "Was Ponch. Now Paunch." I've seen him hawking products on late-night infomercials. How the mighty have fallen.

The Geico Caveman (82): I HATE that guy! Emo Caveman. I will never buy their auto insurance.

Ann Coulter (80): Snark.

Dick Cheney (77): Perfect first name. He is one.

Dr. Phil (54): Smug, self-righteous windbag.

Flavor Flav (3) - I actually watched one episode of "Flavor Of Love", and I wondered what on God's Green Earth those women saw in this moron. Must be the fifteen minutes of fame, being on TV, and hopes of acting and modeling careers. Anyone who wears a huge watchface as a fashion accessory (er... bling) is an idiot. Women had to line up to stick their tongues in the mouth of this cretin, and for some ungodly reason some of them actually did it. One even let him fondle her boob. My faith in the human race dropped a few notches after watching this sexist and racist piece of crap.

There are many more deserving losers on that list. Go check it out.

I hope to attend six conventions, starting in January. Just in time to promote my novel, which comes out January 2. I intend to do some book signings and even book readings. But... what to wear?

I found the perfect place for authors to choose a pen name and costuming tips - The Pseudonym and Costume Generator - from Smart Bitches Who Love Trashy Books.

The generator gave me Zarina Juliaea as a pen name. That sounds ridiculous enough to be a pen name. My real pen name, Elizabeth Black, pales by comparison.

Here's my costume, according to the generator: "Thigh-high boots, leather shorts, a feather boa--and nothing else."

Even if you aren't a writer, this generator is fun. When you click on the button, what is your pen name and what kind of costume are you told to wear?

In a cute poll taken by the sex toys site Lovehoney, poor Tony Blair trails behind sex toys when women were asked what they would want with them on a deserted island. Out of twenty men listed, respondents voted Tony Blair the man they'd least like to be stranded with on a deserted island.

The man most wanted to be with was, first, their partner, and second, George Clooney. I didn't participate in this poll, but if Jason Isaacs, Hugh Jackman, and Charles Dance were listed, I'd ask for a foursome.

I figured I'd be rated NC-17. I got a major kick out of how the program counts the times I type certain words, like sex, penis, ass. I do take issue with how the rating used "rape". Sometimes you need to find good information about rape cases, since rape is obviously harmful to women. While I'm at it, I'll take issue with all of those words giving my blog an NC-17 rating. I do write about erotica and sexy stuff, but I also write about issues important in sexuality and relationships, and that means I will use the right words when describing sex, such as penis, vagina, and orgasm. What would the "church ladies" like me to say? Pee-pee and va-jay-jay? Gimme a break!

Mingle² - Online Dating

This rating was determined based on the presence of the following words:

sex (47x)

rape (8x)

shit (5x)

orgasm (4x)

penis (3x)

vagina (2x)

ass (1x)

I've been insanely busy writing lately, which is why I haven't updated my blog in ages. A publisher is taking a second look at my novel. I will hear something within a month. I'm very excited about this!

I do plan to update my blog, but I won't be posting as often as I used to. I'm just too busy. I still read blogs occasionally, but not nearly as much as I used to. I'm enjoying myself with my new career as a sex, relationship, and pop culture writer.
