Top Ten Search Keywords (Filler post)

Just for a laugh I thought I'd sign up with Google Analytics and see how people visit this blog.

The top ten keywords that have sent people here are:

  • gsoh - Well it was a recent post title
  • tranny list - I suppose that's my cliche list
  • pandora caitiff - that mostly me checking in from other PCs :)
  • "list of gender stereotypes" - that cliche list again
  • best disclaimer - LOL. I know what that is
  • can everyone stop getting shot - Somehow I think they're looking for Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
  • flickr tranny fakes - More Joanne's crusade than mine
  • geisha tranny - One entry on one list. I guess there's not many of these online
  • goth icons - That's a test I did
  • helicopter to this canadian hideaways - What? How? Who

    "For the benefit of Miss Rogers"

    The English language is often quite inadequate. Not because of the lack of words to chose from, but because a lot of the useful phrases have connotations or implications.

    Today was mine and Lucy's first daytime date. We went for a picnic in the park. It was really nice and relaxed, and we're beginning to be less guarded around each other.

    When I dropped her back at her home there was an awkward silence. Eventually Lucy asked if we were "you know...".

    I explained that I really fancied her, and I liked spending time with her.

    "But?" she asked.

    "No buts" I explained. I really do want to spend more time with her.

    So after about 10 minutes of trying to find the right words, we decided we were boyfriend and girlfriend and both went off with silly grins on our faces. We're off to see my friend's band tomorrow night.

    But I still cant find the right words:

    Dating - Nope, that's what we've been doing.
    Going out - sounds like something said in high school
    Exclusive - Lucy liked this suggestion, but its still not the right word
    Involved - too euphemistic
    Going steady - What is this? The 50s?

    Any ideas?
