I'm Not a Girl. Not Yet -- Nor Will I Ever Be -- a Woman

Was just going through my statcounter referrers, and I saw that The Express must have linked me from somewhere.

Cool.

Here's the blurb, from the Local Blog Log:

» GOOD TO KNOW: We're assuming that there's probably a risk of fire when you leave a food product on a George Foreman grill. But as Bad Things I've Done Lately discovered when she fell asleep while making late-night hash browns, the grill will only carbonize the potato product and create a bad smell, not catch on fire. That George — he thinks of everything. [Bad Things I've Done Lately]

**************
Um.

Two issues there, which you might have missed if you weren't me. I'm just going to repost the comment I submitted (it hasn't been moderated yet):
Hi guys -- thanks for the link. Just 2 nits:

1. My blog is "Dumb Things I Have Done Lately." (Not "Bad" Things)

2. I am not a woman.

Thanks -- Joe
Okay, I lied. To that, I also add:

* Yes, I know I need a haircut. My highlights are gone too, though I don't think that bit really helps in the "mistaken gender department."

* I'm not sure that a correction wouldn't just make things worse.

* Alternate Headlines for this Entry: Alright, I Know I Need a Haircut, Okay?; Lies of the Liberal Media; What a Difference a Letter Makes; As Long as They Spelled My Name Right (Oh, Wait); "Dumb" Is Not "Bad"

I think you missed out on the obvious headline for this entry... "The Reports of My Gender Reassignment Have Been Greatly Exaggerated"
