About Me
- Name: Aunt B
- Location: Nashville, Tennessee, United States
Like Donnell Alexander says, "It's about completing the task of living with enough spontaneity to splurge some of it on bystanders, to share with others working through their own travails a little of your bonus life." But, it's mostly the kind of place that folks looking for "girls and cars" stumble across by accident.

THE CAST OF CHARACTERS
Aunt B.--Your kind host.The Butcher--My youngest brother, who lives with me and works as, you guessed it, a butcher. He knows everyone in town.
The Recalcitrant Brother--Our middle brother, who lives in rural Georgia and has a kind of movie star life, if that movie star is Burt Reynolds in Deliverance.
The Reverend--Our Dad, a Methodist minister, perpetually three years from retirement.
Mom--Our Mom. She doesn't get a funny nickname because our mom will not stand for funny nicknames.
Mrs. Wigglebottom--My dog. She's got terrible manners.
The Corporate Shill--Or The Shill, as we call her. My friend from college who was constantly getting me into trouble and going to parties she neglected to tell me about where cute boys would ask her "Where's Aunt B.?"
The Legal Eagle--The Shill's husband.
The Super Genius--She lived next door to me my freshman year of college and we've been friends ever since my first day on the floor.
Miss J.--My first adult friend, meaning the first lasting friendship I made after college. She was my roommate in grad school.
Her Lover--Her Husband.
The Divine Ms. B.--Miss J.'s sister and one of my heroes, because she's brave and funny and mystic and fearless.
JR--My oldest friend. I've known her since I was in the second grade.
Elias--JR's husband and the person who's musical tastes have most strongly affected my own. Oh, how I long to be cooler than him!
The Professor--My closest friend here in Nashville. She's a genius, but she'll never tell you that.
The Man from GM--I've known him since I was 16 and he still hasn't forgiven me for telling him I was a vegetarian when I wasn't.
The Redheaded Kid--No one knows where he comes from or where he goes when he leaves here. I assume he's the Butcher's friend. The Butcher assumes he's mine.

That is the coolest!!! I want one for ME!
I can't stand it. Call an ambulance. I think I'm going to die from laughter.
Do they make them for pets as well?
My dog would look so intimidating on walks.
Oh. my. God. Screw that digital camera I asked for - I need one of these.
I just want to point out that this brings you one baby step closer to your self professed destiny to marry a re-enactor. If that is still considered to be your destiny.
Oh EWWWWWWWWWWWWW
If you want to wear a dead animal on your head, I'll give you my ex husband's phone number.
For Xmas, I'd think Doc Johnson toys would be more appropriate for you! When I get the nerve to go to the Larry Flynt store, YOU are the person I am defintely going to with.
Okay. Really bad grammar in the last post. Between seeing a dead animal (I'm a PETA person) and thinking of Doc Johnson toys, my circuits got really crossed.
Nothing new here. Pain and pleasure. Can't tell the difference.
Let's go shopping. I'll buy you a nice pair of faux leather handcuffs.
