Lately, I’ve been loving the spam with crazy subject headers that seem to be generated at random. A few of my favorites:

-Grainy aggressively
-Old-man fern
-Vulnerability hot chocolate

Enjoyable simile from a recent New Yorker:

“For lesser artists, this harmonically confident album would be a coup. But in the case of the Dixie Chicks it’s disappointing, like watching Muhammad Ali hurt a man’s feelings.”

Hey everybody, I just wrote a book! It’s called:

No One Cares What You Had For Lunch: 100 Ideas for Your Blog

Are you astounded, my friends? I am totally a book writer. When people ask what I do, I can be all, “Oh, me? I’m a writer,” and then take a sip of my sophisticated cocktail. Then I can squeal and jump up and down, and maybe do a little touchdown-type dance of some sort.

Anyway, as you may have discerned from the title, my book is a writing prompt book for bloggers. It contains 100 ideas that will help you post. Ideas that will make you feel like feeding the Web with your sugary wit until it grows ponderous and bloated.

If you don’t have a blog, I respectfully request that you start one immediately. If you decide against that course of action, consider purchasing thirty or forty copies of the book for your friends who do blog. They will totally love it.

No One Cares What You Had For Lunch: 100 Ideas for Your Blog is out in August, but you can pre-order your copies here and I will sign them for you. I will sign them “EEEeeee! Love, Maggie”

CNN reports that “Magic Mushrooms Produce Mystical Experiences.” In other news, “Tom Cruise, Kinda Nutty Lately,” and “BrakeBreak Room Always Out of Diet Coke.”

Me: My hands are better when I have warm tea to hold. Maybe we should carry pocket hand warmers with us when we travel to cold places. Like Florida.
