The letter J: Too many possibilities

Going into the letter J, I was worried I wouldn't have anything to write about, completely forgetting my husband (Jim), my sister (Jenn). Since I'm not really into sharing too much about other people (to respect privacy and all that shiz) I'm going to share other things that start with J that I like. Enjoy!

On a side note, I am coming down off of a wicked migraine, and the fonts and formatting were completely pissing me off, so there's lots of fuck ups in this post (more than usual). Everytime I try to fix it, it makes it worse. So rather than burn my house down in frustration, you're getting my half-assed formatting. I can't deal with this shit today. Oh yeah, and my bird won't shut up, so I'm going to kill him and eat him for dinner tonight.

Mmmm...does a jelly doughnut warrant
sexy doughnut time flashbacks? I'm thinking
 YES, it's a definite possibility...
Jelly Doughnuts
I don't think there's much to say on this topic. If you don't like them, you haven't tried enough of them. There is a jelly doughnut out there for everyone, except maybe for diabetics. Even then, I bet someone makes a sugar free jelly doughnut (good luck with that). What I don't get is why so much powdered sugar on the outside? I always inhale it and choke. Putting aside the risk of sugar asphyxiation, they are a delight. A pure sugar lovers dream. And since there is fruit in jelly, it's probably the most healthiest doughnut in the case. So, go ahead, and have two. And don't forget, eating them with no pants on makes them taste even better. Just remember you can only do that at home, so get them to go.

Jail TV shows
No, I'm not talking about Cops (the all time best show to watch when drinking). I mean the jail shows, like "Las Vegas Jail" or " Jail" or "Locked-Up". I watch these shows on a just-in-case-I-get-arrested-and-need-to-survive-in-an-all-womens-prison premise. Seriously, don't you want to know what you're getting into if you decide to break the law? There's all different kinds of jail shows to prepare you for any scenario. For example, Las Vegas Jail shows you how to behave in the Clark County Correctional Facility. Being that we love Las Vegas, this show is important to watch. The key points to a holding facility is: shut the fuck up, face forward, speak only when spoken to (and only to guards) and no fighting. By following these simple tips, you will be released back into society before you know it, especially if it's just a public drunkenness charge. Locked Up shows you how to survive in prison. For example, in a men's prison, you can steal butter pats from the cafeteria to jerk off with...but don't get caught because you're not supposed to jerk off in prison. Also, Locked Up Abroad shows you that there is more than a million reasons to NOT stuff heroin balloons up your ass and take them to a foreign country. If you want to see how much prison can suck, watch that show. If you want to scare your kids, make them watch it. You will definitely convince them to not become drug smugglers. Check your local listings for all these great shows. You won't be sorry.

Jackson 5
And not just the band, but the movie, The Jackson Five: An American Dream. It's on VH1 at least once every 3-6 months. It's good.

Green Apple Jelly Fruit Tea
Jelly Fruit Tea
I get it almost every time we go to Foxwoods. There's a Japanese bakery, called Fay Da there. They have Bubble Tea and Jelly Fruit Tea. But since this is J, I will tell you only about Jelly Fruit Tea. First you pick what flavor of tea you want. I like the green apple tea with jelly fruit. So, the green apple tea is a sweet drink that almost tastes like a green apple juice. Then they add the fruit jelly. Fruit jelly are little rectangles of flavored chewy jello stuff. I believe the jellied substance is made of the same stuff as certain soluble fiber supplements. It's almost like little Jello jiggler bits. The flavors are bright, sweet and tropical. While you drink the cold liquid, the chunks of jelly fly up the fat straw and you chew them. It's pretty filling for a drink and takes a long time to drink it. It's delish!!!!

 Junior Mints
Junior Mints are the perfect candy to end any meal. They're minty but too minty. A nice palate cleanser but not so harsh that you feel like you ate toothpaste. The chocolate shell is waxy enough so as not to get all melty and nasty..yet it's sweet enough to make you feel like you're eating candy. The next time you go to the movies, get a small popcorn with butter and a box of junior mints. When you sit down, dump the junior mints into the popcorn. Commence eating. You will not be sorry.

Jim's Creations Art
And last but not least, JimsCreationsArt, my wonderful and talented husband's sites where he sells all the stuff he makes from scrap metal. And don't forget: It's not really welding until the smoke detectors are going off in the upstairs hallway!

  1. Don't forget Jesus. Judging by the level of profanity in your post, I think you might need a dose of sweet baby Jesus. Maybe you should listen to Jumping Jesus by the Black Crows, although I think they could use a little Jesus themselves. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sv3XyLOH9rc
