performed three costume changes, been frustrated by the world five times, and shot video of herself playing chinese checkers. the question is what have you done?
born a long time ago in a galaxy far far away, little raymi sunshine found her niche as a premiere blogger back when you were still being blown away by tsar’s first record (one of raymis faves).
today she finds herself up against for best blogger in the universe bragging rights with her toughest foe, Dooce, the american favorite from LA who now lives in the SLC. the busblog sat down with ms minx to check in and speculate on her thought process going into the final days of voting.
busblog: raymi why should you win this award. youre not even original.
raymi: pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
busblog: but dooce writes about having a child, you dont have any children
raymi: yeah and if i do then i will write about how f-ing retarded my kid is
and mouthy
and moody
and how much i deserve it
my kid better be a girl too
busblog: omg when are you expecting?
raymi: haha
not for a loooong time
im not done failing at life yet
kids are for the second stage of life when all your avenues and chances dry up, then you have a kid and instill all your insecurities and missed-out-ons into it
busblog: in retrospect was the tattoo a bad idea?
raymi: no
sometimes i look down at it and go sigh how bored am i of you
but then i think how much i love it and how i want a unicorn and other stupid stuff
i will inevitably get one on my other arm of something
maybe RAYMI in some arty farty script
busblog: when will the larger than life portrait of fil adorn your back with huge gothic script under it saying “my mans”?
raymi: never
back tattoos are for strippers and fat hippies
and chodes from the burbs
and you
busblog: my raymi tattoo portrait is almost done so hush
which is your real bff?
the blonde, or sass?
raymi: you couldnt draw yourself out of a wet paper bag
they are both my friends and i love them
nice angle you dirtbag
busblog: lets say there was one life preserver left
raymi: bahaha
busblog: both of them were swimming off the titanic
raymi: well whichever one was more athletic
busblog: of course you had a cool one
which would you throw the extra one to?
raymi: me included, id give it to the poorest swimmer
busblog: sass wins then
awesome
busblog: ok, now to your art
how many pieces have you sold over the last year?
raymi: remind me to charlie horse you when i see you next
um a ton
busblog: how many do you thnk dooce has sold?
raymi: she doesnt have to make crappy art
she just has to write about her totally domesticated life in utah and her daughters facial expressions and her legions go OOOOOOOOOH AAAAAAAAHH SO AMAZING
raymi: ive sold 35 paintings in total
give or take
the bad kids are in the park right now
it’s balls freezing right now and dark wtf
they havent been around inawhile
where did you go
raymi: tony i have a question for you, why aren’t you in jail yet
what do you think the internet would be like if i never found you
busblog: they cant keep a good brotha down
it would be less canadian, thats for sure
raymi: i mean my readers and yours
you would inevitably find and irritate me though
busblog: doubt it
raymi: im glad i have more bg info on you and see the wizard behind the curtain that your toolbag readers dont see haha
though i must say in real life you talk a good game, v well spoken and intelligent
busblog: thanks baby
raymi: dont let it go to your head
busblog: also you know way hotter stories about me than ive ever told on m’blawwg
raymi: if by hot you mean gross, thanks trying to forget about that. next!
busblog: how did you lose all that weight?
please say snorting weight loss pills
raymi: by watching what i eat and when i eat
and being stressed out
and stopped drinking beer
white wine instead of red
busblog: interesting
raymi: wii fit
busblog: are you still 20 on wii?
raymi: in the summer biking and walking
depends how shaky i am
i think im 23 right now
busblog: where should people vote for you?
url please
also, how often shoudl they do it
raymi: http://2008.weblogawards.org/polls/best-diarist/
busblog: also, should they tell their friends
raymi: every 24 hours from when they last voted
and they should make a point to go to libraries and work and home vote wherever
they should tell as many people as possible
busblog: ktnx now make out with fil for a good 4 minutes and say its from me and pitt
raymi: SICK DUDE
my breath stanks
busblog: that parts pitts. mine is the roaming hands part.
