Ramona Age 36





RamonaAge36 seeking Male 30-50 and not that nogoodsonuvaHowie Senior.

Howie? If you are reading this, get your butt back down to The Whopper Burger and get your job back. Then maybe your sister Willa Jean and her wife/my sister Beezus will start speaking to you again. In the mean time I’m wet-jetting my way across every floor on Klickitat street.

So yes, I am seeking a male 30-50 that can support me and Howie Junior. Make that 30-70: Sugar Daddies welcome.

And Howie Senior? Next time your “friend” Perfect Susan calls me to straighten her hair again (just because I boi-oi-oinged it in Kindergarten), I will kindly tell her where she can put her award-winning Cream of Wheat pear syrup chicken thighs. The recipe that she STOLE from Beezus and I (if we'd had a deep fryer, ours would've been award-wining FIRST).

Are you still reading this Howie Senior? Willa Jean and Beezus have couples’ yoga tonight and cannot pick up Howie Junior again at Shop Rite. There is only so much Drop Everything and Read-ing a boy can do while watching his grandfather inventory the frozen food warehouse.

So Howie Senior, get your job back, never so much as speak to Boingy Susan again and pick up Junior. All other interested males please send picture and proof of employment to ramona36@pickypicky.com

Have you heard about Funny Not Slutty's Blog Book? I have a piece in it and so do bloggy friends Anna, Beej, Heidi, Lisa, JD, Jayne, Paula, Suzy and plenty of other funny females. Go download it for free and thank Jacki for her super hard work if you get the chance. I was on the selection committee (convenient I know, cough cough), but she does all the heavy lifting over at FNS (all in a silver studded weight belt I'm told...shhhh)

Thanks for the awesome shout outs from Rachel of GetRealMommy and Lucy and Jane of Four Jugs. Both of your blogs are full of funny parenting insight and cleverness in general.

  2. Why doesn't she just leave him for Henry Huggins? I know he spends too much time with his damned dog, Ribsy III, but I hear he's making pretty good cash now that he's finally moved up to head crossing guard.

  4. I forgot to shout FnS out and now have to lift your entire paragraph VERBATIM so I can put it in next week.

    Because once you reach 300 you're supposed to help others out with their plagiarism and stuff.

  5. I also forgot to mention that when we were kids I used to call my sister Beege. Short for Bijou, which means jewel in French.

    AS you were.

  8. I haven't thought about Romona in years. Couples' yoga! Hilarious.

  9. Are you reading Ramona now with your boys, perhaps it's part of your own nightly reading (NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT ANN) or do you just have a freakish memory?

    Next up, Are You There God It's Me Margaret.

  10. Oh, Lord. I knew she was familiar and now I have it figured out:

    Ramona is a mom at our elementary school.

    Awesome.

    :-D A.

  11. Ramona is awesome. She deserves a good man. And I think Ralph, the motorcycle mouse should be her pet.

  16. Remember when Ramona's dad tried to quit smoking? That was hard core. I'd like to see you try to put that subject matter in a children's book now. Controversy!

    Thanks so much for the mention. I couldn't be more tickled if Ramona herself had had mentioned our little blog.

    Loves, Lucy

  18. Oh, my gosh! Thank you for the lovely jolt of nostalgia. Ramona! Beezus! That makes me want to go back and read those books.

    (And thanks for plugging the FnS book. I gotta get a badge in my sidebar, at LEAST!)

  19. Okay, I'm lost but I'm off to check out Ramoa and figure it out.

    Hope you have a good weekend.

  20. Thank goodness it's raining in Burbank, because I feel like I just tuned into a really funny movie and I'm not moving until I figure it out!

  21. Oh, Ramona...You haven't changed one bit!!! But you cannot possibly be 36 because that makes me...yikes:)

    Great post Ann, as always.

  24. I read Ramona, and I still have no idea what this was all about. I was a kid, I can't remember everything. Archie and the gang, that I can remember. Congrats on that slut thing. You must be very proud. (it's a great assortment of reads)

  25. Thanks for this great mention and work on the book and I think maybe Ramona needs to slut it up just a little...
