Apparently, you were a "fly on the wall" during my ill-fated winter romance with Mr Cheap-o, anti-consumerist, environmentalist-for-show. He also "forgot" his wallet every time we went out and was also too cheap to buy food (or even blankets for his bed). Booze and pot, an iPhone, a racing motorcycle, and a hot tub he considered essentials, though! Also the Prius and the Rolex that his rich Daddy had bought him. And his house, which his Dad also owned. I finally dumped him when he scolded me for "using too much water" while I was washing his dishes for him. And while he was filling up his hot tub at the same time. Hilarious!!!

It sound's like my college dating too...until I met Mr. Institutional Investor and got serious. Deja, back in the day, you didn't happen to date a tall, blue eyed, bearded, granola chomping, birkenstock wearing PHD guy named Drew at Stanford, did you? Good God...what was I thinking.... Manolo, brilliantly hilarious.

Just so you know...if you happen to be eating peach yogurt and reading the Manolo at the same time, it does indeed hurt to have the peach yogurt snorted out through the nostrils.

(Yes, it's okay to have a $3000 custom bike, but only if you lay off the tirades.) And I'm glad it has been noticed how cheap Mr. Tofurky often is. Dated their ilk a couple of times then married a MidWesterner.

Tall, blue-eyed, bearded, and beautiful, and with granola for brains. Fortunately, I work from home, so I can laugh out loud without arousing the curiosity or derision of anyone but the cat. This is brilliant. And they're great shoes, too! Like deja pseu, I have dated this man! Tall, blue-eyed, bearded, and beautiful, and with granola for brains.

Did you have that stored up all weekend. I can't even begin to list all the things that I find hilarious in this post. It would be a cut and past of the entire entry. A terrible and awful vision you painted there. I must go find solace in my closet of shoes. Luv Poochie Wow! Did you have that stored up all weekend.

Reminds me of Martin Mull's movie Serial, a terrific satire of the crunchy crowd's predecessors. The shoes are fabulous, too. What more could we ask? Well done, Manolo.

This made me smile and laugh. Perfect shoe-antidote to the hyper-pseudo-crunchy-granolaness so common to southern California. I heart Manolo. This made me smile and laugh.
