World Domination

highest contrast 2.jpg

My to-do list for world domination:

  • Scrap this whole crappy stupid anti-war ideal.

  • Do the dishes.  (Even world dominators have to do their own dishes before they acquire slaves)

  • Reduce size of ass by half so fit on plane to NYC this summer.

  • Do laundry so family stops bugging about no clothes...must have space to think about ruling the world!

  • Cease idolizing Miss Marple*.  Try relating more to Hillary Clinton in spite of plodding dowdy wardrobe...(Miss Marple much better dresser but not world leader)

  • Eat handful of raw almonds for superior breakfast every morning- will sound healthy for inevitable Vogue interview.

  • Construct panic room/nuclear fallout chamber.  Just in case plan goes bad.

  • Take copious notes while people talk to unnerve them.

  • Pretend not to like chickens.

  • Install spy devices in all jewelry. 

  • Train Chick to carry secret messages in manner of homing pigeon.

  • Wear more red lipstick.





*For visual- refer only to Joan Hickson version of Miss Marple- smashing hats and suits!  Other portrayals are flighty, scattered, frumpy, and not indicative of razor sharp logical mind nor of neat and tidy dress typical of person with orderly mind.

World domination is no simple feat. There's a lot to take care of ~ Miss Marple would be more fun than Hillary. I'll check back and see how you are doing. Onward Sister!!

My very wide ass will be on a plane in eight days and I am quite worried about it. Not the flying part but I really do not want any attention from the airlines about my ass being too large to fly. I'm no Kevin Smith but still fat....time will tell.

I have to put in a vote for Margaret Rutherford as Miss Marple. I find her appealing for some reason. Sturdy. Not at all stylish but like a favorite great aunt reassuringly capable. The episodes with her aren't my favorites, I just like her. I suppose, a case can be made for being capable and stylish at the same time and Joan certainly covers both points. I have to say I would rather hang with any of the Miss Marple's over Hillary.

Don't stop idolozing Ms. Marple~LOVE her...I adore Agatha Christie and am currently working my way through the library's collection of Heriot Periot. My dream is to one day own the whole collection of Ms. Marple and Periot Mysteries on DVD. Never stop pretending to like chickens~I say we have a new slogan "Never trust a person that does not like a chicken, because they certainly like their eggs!"

Love reading your blog btw!

"Reduce size of ass by half so fit on plane to NYC this summer." I'm working on this goal myself. Its not easy but I have to try.

(but I'm going to MN in May so have less time)

I love all the votes for Miss Marple!!

Janice- are you the gorgeous lady in NY? Thank you- and I agree about not trusting anyone who doesn't like chickens! (They're so effing cool)

Pam- I must say that while our tushes may both need to be reduced by half- yours is by far way cuter so if you don't manage to reduce yours by your trip- at least its got charm. I need to work on the charm factor. Every time I see pictures of you on your travels I think you're like Elizabeth Taylor with fewer jewels on. Always the cutest shoes too. Love you!!!
