(besides, looking pretty is easy and pretty lame to convey to single friends or grandsons. think how much more entertaining it is to talk about your crazy spinster neighbor to people. and then when these hot, single dudes finally see you, they all be like, wait, she's not old...or spinster like. score!)Akkirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12448133755067849396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12047376.post-68208253586888585232008-05-22T23:03:00.000-05:002008-05-22T23:03:00.000-05:00Sognatrice--I think that might REALLY solidify my ...Sognatrice--I think that might REALLY solidify my reputation as crazy spinster lady on the block. (For the amusement of the blog world, though, it would be worth it.)<BR/><BR/>Stefanie--Wow; another one? The Internet has taught me lots of things, only one of which is that Stefs-with-an-f are not as uncommon as I thought. I should have a delurk day just for Stefanies to see how many of you are out there!<BR/><BR/>3Cs--I know, I know. It just bugs me that these people seem to ONLY see me at my worst!<BR/><BR/>Dutchess--You'd think I would have learned the same lesson after seeing past meMarmony dates at Target THREE TIMES. Alas, I still went there unshowered just last week.<BR/><BR/>Stacey--See above.<BR/><BR/>Liz--You make a good point, of course. Apparently I shouldn't care. (I wouldn't say I actually do; it just makes me shake my head at the ridiculousness is all.)<BR/><BR/>Noelle--Wait. You think Posh Spice does her own gardening?? (Don't you think she has PEOPLE for that?)<BR/><BR/>Mickey--Oh, that's bad. That's really, really bad.<BR/><BR/>L Sass--Are you saying I should wear it on my next date? I suppose that might be the one thing I haven't tried yet... ;-)<BR/><BR/>Poppy--I know, right? And no, Reed doesn't look like that picture. Also, he's married. You know who DOES look a little like that picture, though (minus the tattoos and the cape)? My date last week. Sigh. (I still don't think he's my soul mate.)<BR/><BR/>Jess--My second favorite thing about owning my own house is not smelling my neighbors' dinner through the walls. (My favorite thing is my very own washer and dryer, neither of which require quarters.)<BR/><BR/>NPW--Hey, I'm just saying that when you're single, you're supposed to be always looking, right?Stefaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10128238432671375399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12047376.post-54143358316584449362008-05-22T20:53:00.000-05:002008-05-22T20:53:00.000-05:00Hilarious.

In apartment buildings, you hear and smell what your neighbors are doing, and you see them in the laundry room wearing the dregs of their wardrobes, and finishing their walks of shame in the morning, and it's just... so excessively intimate that I would rather give them the illusion of privacy by not knowing anything about them.Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15942269316108576622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12047376.post-66135093943912673872008-05-22T12:35:00.000-05:002008-05-22T12:35:00.000-05:00You sure do collect a lot of Stefanies on this blo...You sure do collect a lot of Stefanies on this blog.

I'm positive no one that works there really spends a second thinking about me but sometimes I think they might be thinking, "I see that girl in here buying cute clothes, what does she do with them when she leaves?"

I have just stumbled upon "Stefanie Says" for the first time (after usefully utilizing my time by doing a Google search of my own name)and am delightfully surprised at this gem of a blog! The quality of the writing, the attention to grammar and the witty retelling of Stefanie's life events (and even non-events, perhaps?) makes me proud to share the marvelous name Stefanie. <BR/> In fact, as I spent the past half hour (of the time I usually devote to sleeping) reading several of your blog posts, I found we have more in common than just our first names! I'll list our commonalities in bullet form as best I can (unfortunately, computer savvy-ness is not something I share in common with you.):<BR/> - Both of our immediate families include two sisters and a mother (at the least; I also have a father, two cats and a dog ;-)).<BR/> - We share an interest in proper grammar and spelling (you've won awards; I use my red pen quite liberally when editing my younger sister's school papers. {Oh, and that "Hullo" at the beginning of this steadily lengthening comment is not a typo, but rather the way I would say "Hello!" if I had a coquette-ish British accent.}).<BR/> - We both enjoy "bond(ing) with (the) couch" and "sle(eping) until double digit hours" (I woke up at 11:22 am today:-))<BR/> - We both have neighbours who would be impressed at seeing our "dressed up" selves (even though we can barely tell the difference ourselves) because they usually see us in our less-than-classy yard clothes (I frequently go out and get the mail in my blindingly bright yellow t-shirt that is four sizes too large).<BR/> Well, all that interesting comparison (which may seem creepy, but hopefully it doesn't) is just to say that I think your blog is brilliant and I thoroughly enjoyed reading what little of it I did <BR/>(500 posts?! well, i have been looking for new ways to procrastinate by using the internet, now that I've exhausted watching the most recent seasons of several TV shows on CTV's website).<BR/>I look forward to reading more "Stefanie Says" in the future.<BR/><BR/>Cheerio!<BR/>Another Stefanie :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12047376.post-19847029440145841342008-05-21T23:48:00.000-05:002008-05-21T23:48:00.000-05:00Can't...stop....laughing.
