Hello little friends,

Sorry about the delay. Hotmail hates me. Yes, I know. Nobody can hate the
hottness. I guess it's possible for a internet commmunication provider
though.

As always, skip the sections are divided by the lovely ***** so you can read
at your pleasure. This week, the hottness has divided it into The
Introduction, The Weekly 7, Cru Announcements, Subleases/Random
Announcements, and The Conclusion. Make sure you read all of the
announcements, there are a lot of them this week.

******************************************************************************
7 Observations that came to my mind while I was handcuffed and chained to
the couch as the neighbor girls watched The Bachelor.

1) Do women realize that the men qualified to be on The Bachelor don’t
actually need help finding a wife? Let’s take a look at the requirements to
be on TB: good-looking and loaded. Sounds like your average desperate 30
year old man in the singles group at church, right? This season,
'unlucky-in-love Lorenzo tries to overcome the significant obstacles that
stand between him and matrimony. What are those obstacles? Oh, he’s a loaded
Italian prince. Apparently, American women don’t like Italian men. Bigots.

2) The funniest part about these kinds of shows is when TB contestants gripe
about each other’s “evil motives”. Turns out, these pure darlings applied to
be on national television for “true love”; contrary to the floozies who just
want a quick 5 minutes of fame. As if they all weren't shallow.

3) It’s even funnier when Prince Charming himself jumps in on the ‘Bad
Motives wagon’. “I can’t trust Lisa. I’m afraid she just joined the show for
fun”. Good thinking there Einstein. I can just imagine the producer sitting
down to have a talk with Lorenzo after the show. "I’m sorry Lorenzo; Beth
Moore wasn’t available this season. Why don't you try my other show The
Third Wheel next time?

4) CRU Girls will always rally around the “classy” girl who defies society’s
decaying standards by continuing to save herself for marriage; our
aficionados seem to ignore a few minor details about their 'Mother Teresa'.
You know, like how she classily lets her “boyfriend” simultaneously date a
brothel (her new fellow contestants and friends). Or maybe how this prude is
letting her partner for life be determined by the events of a reality
television show. Does nobody catch this hypocrisy? Am I just crazy?

5) I have to admit; there are some really funny quotes in TB. “It’s not easy
getting your heart stomped on”. In other words: I joined a show with 26
other women to compete for one man; how dare he break my innocent heart. I
didn't see that coming!

6) With some plot twists, I think The Bachelor could be a good show. I’d
like to propose a new show called The Chiggens. Bachelorettes apply to be on
the show under the presumption that they will be competing for another
dashing young male; however, they are sadly mistaken. Enter Gus Chiggens, an
elderly miner in search of love. Highlights of the show would include prune
feeding time, lamp lit dinners, and Jimmy Fallon laughing. It's a whole new
show with a whole new love warfare.

7) All of the sudden, my roommate makes sense. Grey’s Anatomy really isn’t
that bad.

******************************************************************************

Wow. The Announcements Section is out of control. And yes enemies, next
week's weekly seven willl be "7 signs the hottness is single and in need of a new
girlfriend/hobby". Come on, I only watched TB once.

In your service
The hottness

As always, flattery, comments, and announcements are accepted at
dearthehottness@hotmail.com

So yes, I haven't updated in a while. Ok, it's been a year. Lo siento, no es mi culpa.

Anyways, I'm currently writing the weekly emails for Campus Crusade and I felt it would be a good idea for me to publish them here for safekeeping. So enjoy:)

Dear minions,

I’m bringing sexy back. Yes, the hottness is resurrected.

As always, the email is divided by **** into four separate sections:
introduction, crusade announcements, and a heartfelt goodbye.

*******************************************************************

This week, I would like to introduce a new hottness email feature called the
weekly 7. Why seven? Everyone knows God’s favorite number is seven, and
well, I’m God’s chosen electronic communications ambassador. Perfect, huh? I
thought so too.

Seven signs your roommate is whipped and in need of intervention.

1) Arriving home after midnight, you discover your roommate watching The
Notebook. Alone. Granted, he is single at the time and therefore is not
pathetically attached to someone at the hip, but still. It’s a sad thing.

2) The following conversation takes place:
Me: “Ahmm, why is Grey’s Anatomy being recorded on our TV?
Roommate: “I'm TiVoing it for the girlfriend. It’s really not that bad.”

3) It’s an emotional experience every time your roommate answers a phone call
from the girlfriend. Immediately his voice converts back into prepubescent
stage, as if he has just received a kick in the groin (which you doubt
exists). Though Mr. Michael Jackson imitator’s voice is dangerously high, he
is still barely audible owing to the fact he is whispering, which is
possibly due to a slight awareness of his embarrassing metamorphous from a
college male into my teenage sister.

4) When addressing the master of his domain, He hails Her in their cutely
chosen pet names “babe, honey, etc.” The mention of any other title is
considered pure treason, and thusly avoided for fear of fatal consequences.

5) He starts to call you Lindsey and often gazes at you longingly. By the
way, that really freaks me out Dunlap.

6) You can always tell when she is out of town. A puppy dog face overcomes
your roommate for days as he snacks on chocolate in his room, and counts
down the days until her return on his Precious Moments calendar.

7) Suddenly, your roommate’s wardrobe has undergone a magical transformation.
Cute collared button-down shirts with animal logos have become the norm; the
tattered jeans and stained T-shirts and their sophomoric sayings are gone.
The hottness would make fun of such people, but I do wear pink shirts. It
brings out my eyes.

********************************************************************

There's a rumor floating around back home that

a) I have a girlfriend
b) She's pregnant


I'd like to confirm these rumors. My baby's momma goes by the name of Pamela Lee and we are both excited about the approaching arrival of my little princess Bianca.
