Lap pillows and man pillows and text messages, OH MY!

Yesterday my friend sent me this link: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/4092345.stm

Wow. Just... wow. I mean, if I was a guy, I think I wouldn't really want a kneeling lap for the pillow part...... just sayin.... Wouldn't they prefer a torso? They ARE men, after all.

And of course everyone has heard of the boyfriend pillow.

I think that one actually COULD stand to have a lap. Seriously, you're so lonely you need a man shaped pillow? Use your imagination, for pete's sake! What is this world COMING to?

It used to be we could comfort ourselves with a good steamy novel! And men just needed their hands! Are we really that pathetically dependent that we suddenly need people shaped pillows to fill the physical void in our lives?

Then again, maybe that's better than the alternative "fool around buddy". Or prostitute. Or escort. Those eventually cost more. But then again maybe that depends on how pricey and private it is, and how often you need it. Ergh. Why do we even NEED "it" so much?

Couldn't we just go back to hugs?

In other news it appears goth guy is coming around. I got a goodnight text tonight. This may have a lot to do with the fact that I was a TOTAL knock-out yesterday. My skirt was shorter than usual, I wore my go-gos with the five inch heels and my top hat. Oh, and a corset over my classy blouse. Yeah. I looked good.

The look on his face when he walked in and saw me was priceless. He usually doesn't (appear to) look at me when we're in a tiff. This time he did a double take.

Bwahaha. I felt powerful.

Goodnight!
