Does This Scooter Make Me Look Fat?

Tuesday, March 18th 2008

Ta-Dah!!! My makeover Ashlee Simpson style. It’s me, Kimberly. What do you think?

The more I tried to hide behind oh-so kind words and sophisticatedly sweet flowers, this was the girl beating on the door behind the garden wall. The real-er me…I guess. Nice to meet you.

While you poke around a bit (heh…she said poke), let me run down the answers from the pre-reveal that NO ONE GUESSED CORRECTLY. So many of you were really close. I think it was the scooter that threw you. (Amie, I want to kiss you on the mouth for guessing that one. Instead, I will just continue to covet your eyebrows.)

1. What will be the main color of my new blog design?

Pink: I still crush on pink like a 13 year old. I think it keeps me young.

2. Name one prop that will be pictured in the header?

Scooter: Really? This is the goof that I am. A wannabe sexy goofess on wheels. Scooter, roller skates..hell if I care.

3. What will the blog be called?

Petroville: Dude, that’s how we roll. Forever and ever. Amen.

4. Will the pseudonym “MommaK” be used in this new design?

No: So over the old lady, I can’t even tell you.

5. Will I be giving away prizes to the first commentors of every post I write?

No: Ha, ha. Like Sarah said, “that is crazy talk” but you’ll see why I asked when you’re the first person to comment on a post.

Since I’ve stumped you all, I have another game to play.

Easy - find the hidden Easter Egg.

Ready? Set? Go!


Leanne, thank you for another great design. If you lived closer, I’d have you paint my house pink.
I love living in the world you create for me! xo


If you really love me, feed me in your reader!

You love me.  You really love me. Dontchya?

    Now I need to do mine.

  • Cute! I love it!
    The header ROCKS!

    annie’s last blog post..“Don’t die. Imagine the headline.”


  • Ummmm - I think I won, but I could be wrong. Granted, these are just “cartoonish-type” cherry blossoms… but COME ON!!! I said pink, Petroville, cherry-blossoms (flowers), no Momma K and no prizes.

    HELLO!! I’m psychic.

    Now I would like (as my prize) to ride hand-in-hand with you down the road on matching scooters while you wear that outfit. You supply the scooter - I have a tiara… and it’s Mutha-f’ing pink.

    I’m so jealous of how cute this is… I’m cuted out the cute door.

    From Faith:

  • P.S. Regarding your initial question - that scooter doesn’t make you look fat. That scooter makes your a$$ TOTALLY disappear, dude.

    You’re an a$$less sex kitten on a scooter .
