Happy Birthday, ODNT!


Today’s Music: Rick Springrfield – Don’t Talk To Strangers
Note on Today’s Music: Because she really loves this stuff.
Another note: According to Mags did a great post(read as: saner and more coherent than mine) for the birthday girl. You should all check it out here.

I smell cake. Or is it cheese? CHEESECAKE!!!


You started your blog with a simple request,
About something you wanted to get off…on your chest.
You took us to meet the doctors who knew,
told us about a surgeon who made one out of two.
But then, something else came up.

With your usual wit and all of your humor
you told us that you had a tumor.
While you searched for the perfect breast answer,
It turned out that it wasn’t cancer.
And that was a great relief.

Since then, you showed us the meaning of chagrin.
Shared a letter to your bff,
Mr. Alec Baldwin.
Introduced us to Milo the cat,
Wrote some of this and some of that.
And the most embarrassing Disney story ever.

It’s almost a year since you set up online –
What a year, and how!
Told tales of naked mole rats
And you’ve got your own cow!
Which really only leaves me
One more thing to say:
To Old Dog New Tits,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

And many more wonderful years to follow.

While this ode in your honor
doesn’t come with cheese or a hamster,
In closing, there’s a question
for which we’d all like an answer…

saline or silicone?

Happiest of birthdays, Michele, and keep on rockin! I’ll keep following your story wherever you decide to take us!

  5. Hi,
    A very Happy Birthday to Michele, and a great poem, well done. 😀
    I also did a post on the Naked Mole Rat ages ago, so the beginning of the post at first was confusing when I saw Mags. 😆
    A fabulous Birthday post.

    • She has a really fun blog, Laura!
      And if you like the inner poet (or just want to hurt yourself), I have a bunch of Limericks (and a few Beatnik Poetry Slams) that should never have been inflicted on the public.
      but check out ODNT first – she has some really great posts.
      Much like you!

      • 🙂 Thank you, and will do, re: checking out ODNT! I’ll also poke around your blog for Land O Limericks. And BTW, that naked rat is really disturbing, esp. because it looks like she’s just eaten her offspring.

  17. OK, officially, Naked Mole Rat freaks the crap out of me. Worse than clowns, even. Yet somehow reminiscent of my ex-husband… ? Thanks for letting me know I should visit ODNT today and remind her just how cool she is. Thanks also for the history, which helps me understand why she is such a feisty, wonderful woman. LOVE YOU GUAP! Amy

  19. I wanna be ODNT when I grow up. Not to get new boobs or anything (have enough of my own) but would love to have a writing style other than just babbling on about nothing. Although Seinfeld made millions doing that. Anyway, great prose, love your blog & all that. And Happy Birthday, ODNT!

  22. It is now 1:23am and my girl is sleeping in bed next to me. We are supposed to get up early together tomorrow morning and I SHOULD BE SLEEPING! But I just finally had a chance to look through all of these comments. You guys are soooo awesome. Guap, please don’t ever delete this post as I have a feeling I’ll be visiting it whenever I have a blue day or could just use a little pick-me-up.

    Honestly, I could have ‘liked’ every single comment here. Thank you, thank you, thank you. And I’m truly sorry I sickened all of you with the naked mole rat. Truth be told, the joke started because he looked like a “penis with buck teeth.” … And that joke, ladies and gentlemen, came from my mother. I guess that explains a lot.

    Sleep well, Citizens of Guaptonia. And know that you all have made this girl VERY happy today. I won’t forget it. 🙂
