To Wed or Not To Wed....

Note: This conversation comes after I was told we can't discuss sex or the Big O today ............

C:  I was having a discussion with some people yesterday regarding couples living together before vows are exchanged and marriage proposals. It stemmed from the last episode of RHOA. The people I was talking to said Damon didn't need to talk to Sheree before asking for her daughters hand in marriage and that talking to just Bob was fine. They also said that Sheree was wrong for asking him if he was sure that he wanted to get married because the question of how serious he felt about her daughter should have been asked before they moved in together because moving in together is a big step that's supposed to lead to marriage. I completely disagreed and said it's disrespectful to not discuss your intentions to marry someone's child with their parents beforehand and that a parent does not need to question how someone feels about their child before a proposal is pending? Just because a couple decides to live together does not mean it will lead to marriage. One person's argument was that you shouldn't live with anyone you don't plan to marry and also said that they don't think it's necessary for a man to discuss his desire to marry her with her parents. What is your take on this? I wouldn't marry any man who didn't talk to my parents first or at least my mom since she was my primary guardian. How the hell did Damon think just talking to Bob was good enough? WTF?!

 

T:  1.  I totally support living with your marriage candidate before actually committing.  Its 2012 and I'm pretty sure Jesus supports proactive planning more than he does divorce plus I did it for 2 years and I liked it that way.  Shacking up should be required.  People expose themselves when you live with them...otherwise you fall in love with their representative.

2.  I think Sheree's motives and push was way off in left field.  She kept talking to this young man about the size and price on the ring, talking money blah blah blah.  It seems like her daughter and Damon are regular, humble average people much as you and I were when we were in that phase and she's trying to make her daughter the newest RHOA.  Damon seems like a genuine young man and I think the reason he pulled back was because of Sheree's obscene influence over the proposal and the ring.

3.  I agree that if the young lady who a man plans to marry has a relationship with her parents, it would be who of him to express his intentions but I think this is case by case. Apparently there was some drama over why Sheree didn't acknowledge her oldest daughter in previous seasons and certainly Damon has the inside scoop and perhaps knowing that she had a healthier relationship with Bob, decided to only approach him.  I think there is a lot of back story with their particular situation.

 

C:  1.       I totally agree

2.       I don't like Damon. I think he's rude, disrespectful, and a bxtch for saying he no longer wants to propose if the reason behind is that Sheree scared him by making him think he needed to get Tiara an expensive ring. The only person who's truly affected by that is Tiara. He knows the conversation they've had between each other as it relates to getting married, that Tiara probably doesn't expect a Kim K ring, and how much money he has. My take on the situation has less to do with the ring and more to do with the fact that he realized he's only twenty something years old and doesn't want to get divorced so he wants to wait until he's 100% sure that he's ready to commit to one woman for the rest of his life. He already knew what kind of woman Sheree is and whose daughter he's with so he shouldn't have cared how Sheree felt about a ring if she wasn't going to pay for it. Regular people cannot afford lavish rings in the tens of thousands of dollars range.

3.       I think if a man has ever met the parent(s) of the woman he wishes to marry, he should ask them for their blessing. I don't think there was any real drama between Sheree and her daughter just because she wasn't shown in the first episode. When the first season aired Tiara was still in college I think and if she was away at school, she couldn't have been on the show because she didn't live in the house. I have no reason to believe Tiara is closer to Bob than her mom. I just think Damon's a jack-asss who needs to get his shxt together and man up.

 

T:  1.  ok, we're good

2.  I didn't get the vibe that he wasn't going to do it at all- I got the vibe that she was pissing him off so he wanted to do it on his own merit without all of Sheree's influence.  I wouldn't be surprised if we learn about a quiet proposal by the end of the season.

3.  There were actually stories floating around regarding real life drama between mother and daughter...I know you aren't part of the blogosphere.   So lets say a man meets his girlfriends father at a cookout but the father wasn't a part of her life growing up and maybe just got reconnected within the last year or so...why should this young man feel inclined to ask the father for his blessing?  As the girlfriend, I wouldn't want my father's opinion injected into the process considering our past.

 

C:  2. I think for a man to tell someone's mother that he plans to be drunk off his asss before proposing to their daughter a) makes him a douc*e bag and b) means he's not ready despite whoever's influence. If I were Tiara and saw his foolishness after the season wrapped I would break up with him. He probably has no real, no money, and definitely lacks b*lls so she needs to start dating again

 

3. Nope. I don't know shxt about who said what in the blog world but from their interactions on the show, they seem to have a good relationship and that's all I'm going off of.

b) If a woman and her father currently have a relationship despite their past and the man she's dating has met her father, then he should ask for her father's blessing. It's not his permission because the woman will decide if she wants to marry the man but it's respectful to get the blessing of the parent(s). Even if your parents hate your man, at least he was man enough to do his part now you all can ride off into the sunset together if you choose to.

T:  Yeah I think the drinking comments should have been something he said to his friends and not her mom.

Love and ish

Lengthy but juicy xxoo ;) 

t: You are really in love man oh man

c: Yes I am and I’m trying to see if it’s possible to have a relationship free of cheating. I don’t know if it’s possible but I’m going to do my part and see what happens. No matter how good someone’s s*x is, it’s human nature to want to fxck someone else. Cheating has nothing to do with the person you have at home being a fail in the bedroom. New is exciting even if it’s worse than what you’re already getting. You will regret cheating for some whack sex but it’s exciting to fxck a new person. I’m pretty sure I was a man or an animal in my former life because monogamy seems inhumane and cruel but in an effort to not die of AIDS, I’ll be monogamous. Besides, I mostly just feel that way about heterosexual relationships.

t:  Given this theory, I don't understand why you don't stay single.

c:  Oh Lordie this message totally came back to me as undeliverable because I didn’t bleep out a letter in vagina. LMAO Anyway, I don’t want my vagina to be too friendly so I get into relationships. It’s like this: I like being in relationships but I used to think whatever man I was dating would cheat so I would cheat on him at some point in the relationship. I have no real respect for men so I cheated because I didn’t care but since I’ve never dated a woman before and have no reason to think I’m being cheated on so I’m being good.

t:  Sorry you don't trust men. So a man will cheat but a lesbian won't?

c:  Men aren’t trustworthy. I’m sure lesbians cheat but that hasn’t been MY experience yet so I’m doing something different. If my gf and I were to break up and I dated a man I would more than likely cheat on him and not flinch. I truly believe most, if not all men are full of shxt but some try to keep it together longer than others before they eventually give in to temptation. That’s not why I’m with a woman though. I’m with a woman because I like lady parts and they turn me on much more than schlongs do. Simple as that.

t:  I've grown to know that you make very strong generalizations on stuff so I'm not surprised by your viewpoint but I am a bit saddened that you place limitations on yourself based on a few experiences when life is filled with a million of them. It seems like because your gf hasn't cheated you're using that to justify your point when the reason she hasn't could be plenty. You're a cheater so to say men can't trusted seems a little off when you contribute to the problem my friend. Maybe one day you will let go of your inhibitions with love and stop viewing it as such a damaging process. That's my wish for you ;)

c:  I haven’t placed any limitations on myself and I'm a reformed cheater thank you very much. Men can’t be trusted. Hell, I could't be trusted but I’m working on it. I have no inhibitions with love because I’m currently in a loving and fulfilling relationship so you don’t have to be sad, worried, or hopeful for me. No matter what, I will always believe all men cheat. The most a woman can hope for is that her lover doesn’t get caught so she can continue to think she has a good man. None of this will apply to me until I get cheated on and find myself back out here dating people trying to discern who’s the least full of shxt. Thank God right now I’m happy and if that changes it’s fine because such is a life. There are plenty more people in the world. Relationships don’t devastate me. I move on pretty quickly…sometimes before the last relationship fully ends. Life is short fxck it.

t:  I'll stop reading after the second sentence...I figured that would be your pessimistic response.

c:  The truth is the truth. Deny it if you want to. That’s fine.

t:  That may be YOUR truth but it most certainly isn't THE truth.

c:  What percentage of your friends do you know who have been in a relationship with a man longer than 3.5 years hasn’t been cheated on? *waiting*

t:  Considering the fact that I have 4 friends...I would gather it would be 25% however...if we took the poll outside of my very small sampling population, we would see better results.  Men cheat, women cheat..whatever...that wasn't my argument or question rather it was why you thought your relationship now was currently cheat proof (I know those weren't your exact words).  What happens if she decides to cheat? 

c:  Those definitely weren’t even close to my words. If she decides to cheat then all I could do is cheat, break up with her, or both. Those are pretty much the only options. Then I’ll eventually get with someone else and wait for them to cheat if that's what they choose to do.

t:  Wow that sounds like an awfully sucky relationship cycle.  Again, my thought is if you stopped getting in "relationships" than you wouldn't be cheating and neither would they.

c:  That’s pretty much how it goes if you don’t have kids. Women with kids tend to stay, beg their man to stop cheating on them, ignore obvious and blatant signs of cheating, and wrap themselves up into their children. The purpose of getting into a relationship is the likelihood that your partner won’t cheat and neither will you. Relationships are wonderful until the lies and cheating starts. That is why I’m not single. I enjoy being with the person I’m with and I love her very much so no cheating for me.

t:  Why is it so hard for you to believe that there are tons of healthy, non-cheating and loving relationships that last?  I don't have a million dollars but that doesn't stop me from thinking I can't in the future and there are lots of people currently with large accounts.  Maybe not the most heart-wrenching analogy but the idea is this:  Just because you haven't experienced something doesn't mean plenty of people (women aren't).  And by you I mean people.  I would be cheating myself by basing all of my future relationships on my failed marriage. 

c:  Ummmm….attention ma'am: I am IN a relationship and had I based this relationship off my failed marriage I would be single because I would think relationships are pointless. I don’t think relationships aren’t pointless but I’m not going to be devastated to the point of not being able to move on if she decides to cheat because that’s what people do but in the meantime in between time I am going to enjoy my relationship because it’s drama free. Who knows what the future will bring but as of right now, I’ve allowed myself to be vulnerable and care. It may be great or it may blow up in my face. We’ll just have to wait and see what happens but I'm giving her my trust, faithfulness, and commitment to this relationship and I believe she's doing the same.

t:  Ok let me rephrase this question....Why is it so hard for you to believe that there are tons of healthy, non-cheating and loving relationships between men and women that are longer than 6 months?

c:  Ohhhhhhhhhhh…because that’s rare. I’m sure it exists but supposedly dinosaurs also existed…we’ve just never seen them. Most men and women who have been together forever totally love each other but don’t like each other. The sex becomes few and far between, the conversations lack substance, they don’t know how to have fun together, they start doing stuff separately, and by the fifth year someone has cheated or threatened to divorce the other person. Just because people have decided to spend thirty years of their lives together don’t mean they’re happy or in a healthy relationship. They just don’t want to go through the same ish with the next person because for the most part all relationships are the same. Everything is great in the beginning and just kind of fizzle out. You can’t keep living in the same house for years expecting to love it as much as you did when you first got the keys. You can paint the walls, change the furniture, renovate the basement but at the end of the day you’re going to want a new house. There are some people who will stay in that house because of the memories, the unwillingness to move to a new area, and the frustration of packing but there are others who will say, “out with the old and in with the new” and call up a realtor to find a new place. That’s pretty much how relationships are.

t:  Are you imagining this to be the case or have you spoken to couples who have been married for 20 plus years. Let's separate fact from fiction here.

c:  I don’t just make this ish up and you know as good as I do that there are couples who are married and have been for quite some time who don’t touch, talk about anything other than important stuff and their children, kiss, sleep together, or even sleep in the same room. Surely you don’t think I pulled this out of my assss. If you stop trying to fight what I’m saying and face the facts, you’ll realize I’m right. I don’t care if you only know eight people. If those eight people are in relationships and have been with the same person longer than 3.5 years you need to be honest about the state of their relationships and remember together doesn’t necessarily equal happy and healthy. I think you know I’m right but you want to be in la-la land a little while longer.

t:  I'm not fighting what you're saying but what i wish you would acknowledge is how one sided a lot of your viewpoints are. I bet that had you grown up around marriage and had yours been successful, while you may still recognize troubles in any relationship, your perspective might be different. There are two sides of a coin- look at both sides before creating an unwavering opinion. 

c:  Had I grown up around a lot of married couples and stayed with my husband, I would still feel the same way. The current divorce rate in America is 41%. That obviously doesn’t include those who are currently leading lives as single people/separated (married) couples, women who don’t want to be single mothers, those who should be divorced because they’re married to a piece of shxt, men who have adopted the belief, “it’s cheaper to keep her” and those who just can’t afford to get a divorce. I’ll bet if they took a poll of all those people the rate would double thus proving my point that most people aren’t in happy healthy relationships but there are certainly those who are. Those people do not make up the majority. That’s all I’m saying. It is a fact. It’s evident on every block in America and you cannot deny this. My views are not one sided because I acknowledge that some people really are happy but they’re rare. So you would say the majority of the married couples you know who have been married for 5+ years seem to be happy and from what you’ve observed their relationships are healthy? You would argue that point? Really?! You just hate to think I’m right. I’m not pessimistic, I’m realistic. I didn’t grow up around a lot of married people but I know plenty now as an adult and these jokers are together but far from truly happy. They just make it work because most of them have children. That’s what people with kids do.

t:  Ok

c:  HA! I'm right! Of course I am. 

t:  I didn't say Ok cause you were right...I was driving

Lusting over

I need art!! And I've fallen head over heels for these pieces at The W, DC. Check it.

True Feelings

After sitting in 3 hrs of traffic this morning (insert pee break at Nordstrom which has MUCH better bathrooms than a gas station), I finally got to work only to log-on and realize my life would be better served at my house today so I logged back off and skipped to my motor vehicle...stopped at Nordstrom again and the rest is history.  So...while my feeling for most of today was:

Here's to tomorrow feeling more like:

Do you know Vashtie???!

Vashtie is my bff in my mind.  Her hair alone is everything I need in my life and might have just convinced me to go back to black this weekend after I dropped a ton of cash getting it bleached at some trendy salon.  Check out her latest pics and get to know my bff better on her blog.

Stuff

Shit ___ people do in the workplace

1. Ear hustle. This is the fine art of listening to what others say only to use it against them later.

2. Convo hijack. These are the people who only talk to you once they see you've begun a conversation with someone else.

3. The caller-outter. This is the co-worker who always has a headache or any other very minor ailment that they describe as near death. You usually get stuck doing their work.

4. The potluck finger licker. No description needed.

5. The personal caller. Damn GTFOff the phone! Arguments with the spouse, checking non-stop on their kids, calling the radio station, calling all their unemployed friends-all very loudly!

This list is subject to growth.

Friday Night -Night Cap

c:  WTF are you doing?

t:  Is this a trick question?  Drinking lemonade while naked...yep, that's what I'm doing.

c:  Lmfaooooooooooo!!! I knew it was something stupid that's why I why I asked.  Why are you always naked?

t:  I'm a visionary and this is how I think.

c:  You're not thinking about shit other than OPP!  Who are you fooling?

t:  Jesus has touched lives in March because folks are no longer sexting.  Are regular people part of the illuminati because I'm sure they're still down for the get down.

c:  Sexting is still alive and well. (rest of comment edited for Christ)

t:  I just poured a little lemonade out in your memory.

c:  Lmfaooooooooo!!

t:  This must have been explained in psychology but here I am a naked little butterfly ready to spread my pollen (or is that bees) to the little trees but ok....  whatever I'm sure these dumbasses will wait til I'm in some halfway decent relationship to come trying to ring my bell.

c:  Yep!  Thats how it goes so keep sitting there and add some liquor to that lemonade or just get rid of the lemonade altogether.  You need a new lineup.  Maybe you should be working on that.

t:  It's spring so my neighbors should come out of hibernating and start swinging again.

c:  Wow!  Goodbye!!!!!

I could cry

I'm sure Carlisha is gonna talk trash about my small feet but I am on the verge of crying.

Waited for a damn week. Got excited that my box sat on my porch all day undisturbed (high five to retirement neighborhoods). Got this tiny ass box. And then boom-THEY ARE TOO BIG.

This is why I rarely order online. Effffff

"Dating"

Look, I don't really wanna go on dates or respond to your "wyd" texts...all I wanna do is drink Ciroc and freak in the midday.  <<<Is that too much to ask?!  I'm new to all this "dating" foolishness and its giving me a complete headache!!! 

Plight of a Skinny Fat Girl

t:  I think these pants gave me a real headache.

c:  I told you what my jeans are doing. I'm about to order some of those damn pajama pants I saw on an infomercial or that damn full Snuggie suit!

t:  OMG I know why women walk around looking like full on frumpadinkas!  This ish is painful plus I have the cutest outfit on and wasted it!

t:  IDEA::: I wonder if I tie my trench around my waste like we used to do circa 1994 if anyone would notice I don't have pants on at my desk.  I'm seriously looking around for options like do I have a gym bag stuffed in my drawer???!!!!

c:  I am CTFU!!!!!!!!!!!! There aint shxt in your drawer and you know it so you (mines well) might as well unbutton your pants and scoot up real close to your desk. Just keep your hands on top of the desk to avoid feeling compelled to give yourself some mid day pleasure.

c:  Just throw on a Body Magic or something under your clothes. I heard they seriously do wonders so you won't feel your jeans pressing up against you. I am too cheap to purchase one so I rock the "busted can of biscuits" look every Friday when we get to wear jeans. I hope I don't get so fat that I have to go to Walmart and invest in Hanes jogging suits in every color. I wonder if in true large person fashion, my gym shoes will start leaning to the side the second I don that unsightly apparel?!

t:  I told you like 4 years ago my mom sold them well she liquidated her line and was practically giving them away last year!  I look like hell and needed one but didn't want to support her at the time!  So...here I am unbuttoning my pants eating Doritos.

c:  I would have totally supported her since they were on clearance. I could be a fake assss size 6 right now! Are you kidding me?! Now I'm sitting here at my desk in a really awkward position to avoid having the crack of my asss exposed whilst snacking on these damn free M&Ms someone left for everyone in the breakroom wishing the cheap bastard had opted for the ones with peanuts.

The How of Happy

Studies conducted by positivity psychologist Sonja Lyubomirsky point to 12 things happy people do differently to increase their levels of happiness. These are things that we can start doing today to feel the effects of more happiness in our lives. (Check out her book The How of Happiness.)

I want to honor and discuss each of these 12 points, because no matter what part of life’s path we’re currently traveling on, these ‘happiness habits’ will always be applicable.

Express gratitude. – When you appreciate what you have, what you have appreciates in value. Kinda cool right? So basically, being grateful for the goodness that is already evident in your life will bring you a deeper sense of happiness. And that’s without having to go out and buy anything. It makes sense. We’re gonna have a hard time ever being happy if we aren’t thankful for what we already have.

Cultivate optimism. – Winners have the ability to manufacture their own optimism. No matter what the situation, the successful diva is the chick who will always find a way to put an optimistic spin on it. She knows failure only as an opportunity to grow and learn a new lesson from life. People who think optimistically see the world as a place packed with endless opportunities, especially in trying times.

Avoid over-thinking and social comparison. – Comparing yourself to someone else can be poisonous. If we’re somehow ‘better’ than the person that we’re comparing ourselves to, it gives us an unhealthy sense of superiority. Our ego inflates – KABOOM – our inner Kanye West comes out! If we’re ‘worse’ than the person that we’re comparing ourselves to, we usually discredit the hard work that we’ve done and dismiss all the progress that we’ve made. What I’ve found is that the majority of the time this type of social comparison doesn’t stem from a healthy place. If you feel called to compare yourself to something, compare yourself to an earlier version of yourself.

Practice acts of kindness. – Performing an act of kindness releases serotonin in your brain. (Serotonin is a substance that has TREMENDOUS health benefits, including making us feel more blissful.) Selflessly helping someone is a super powerful way to feel good inside. What’s even cooler about this kindness kick is that not only will you feel better, but so will people watching the act of kindness. How extraordinary is that? Bystanders will be blessed with a release of serotonin just by watching what’s going on. A side note is that the job of most anti-depressants is to release more serotonin. Move over Pfizer, kindness is kicking ass and taking names.

Nurture social relationships. – The happiest people on the planet are the ones who have deep, meaningful relationships. Did you know studies show that people’s mortality rates are DOUBLED when they’re lonely? WHOA! There’s a warm fuzzy feeling that comes from having an active circle of good friends who you can share your experiences with. We feel connected and a part of something more meaningful than our lonesome existence.

Develop strategies for coping. – How you respond to the ‘craptastic’ moments is what shapes your character. Sometimes crap happens – it’s inevitable. Forrest Gump knows the deal. It can be hard to come up with creative solutions in the moment when manure is making its way up toward the fan. It helps to have healthy strategies for coping pre-rehearsed, on-call, and in your arsenal at your disposal.

Learn to forgive. – Harboring feelings of hatred is horrible for your well-being. You see, your mind doesn’t know the difference between past and present emotion. When you ‘hate’ someone, and you’re continuously thinking about it, those negative emotions are eating away at your immune system. You put yourself in a state of suckerism (technical term) and it stays with you throughout your day.

Increase flow experiences. – Flow is a state in which it feels like time stands still. It’s when you’re so focused on what you’re doing that you become one with the task. Action and awareness are merged. You’re not hungry, sleepy, or emotional. You’re just completely engaged in the activity that you’re doing. Nothing is distracting you or competing for your focus.

Savor life’s joys. – Deep happiness cannot exist without slowing down to enjoy the joy. It’s easy in a world of wild stimuli and omnipresent movement to forget to embrace life’s enjoyable experiences. When we neglect to appreciate, we rob the moment of its magic. It’s the simple things in life that can be the most rewarding if we remember to fully experience them.

Commit to your goals. – Being wholeheartedly dedicated to doing something comes fully-equipped with an ineffable force. Magical things start happening when we commit ourselves to doing whatever it takes to get somewhere. When you’re fully committed to doing something, you have no choice but to do that thing. Counter-intuitively, having no option – where you can’t change your mind – subconsciously makes humans happier because they know part of their purpose.

Practice spirituality. – When we practice spirituality or religion, we recognize that life is bigger than us. We surrender the silly idea that we are the mightiest thing ever. It enables us to connect to the source of all creation and embrace a connectedness with everything that exists. Some of the most accomplished people I know feel that they’re here doing work they’re “called to do.”

Take care of your body. – Taking care of your body is crucial to being the happiest person you can be. If you don’t have your physical energy in good shape, then your mental energy (your focus), your emotional energy (your feelings), and your spiritual energy (your purpose) will all be negatively affected. Did you know that studies conducted on people who were clinically depressed showed that consistent exercise raises happiness levels just as much as Zoloft? Not only that, but here’s the double whammy… Six months later, the people who participated in exercise were less likely to relapse because they had a higher sense of self-accomplishment and self-worth.

Oh My effing G

These jeans have to be the tightest skinnies known to man! They are Blank denim (sold at Cusp) and super cute on but lawdddd I made the mistake of accidentally drying them and running late this morning...yeah well this pic is taken in my car cause I needed to pull my pants down for a bit! Needless to say, I'll be driving home pantless today!!

This is what my life will become...

Sadly, I think I will be one of those single women who walk around in house dresses, drinking wine, and listening to Anita Baker at 10a just like you were a few weekends ago.  Oh but I would also have a full ash try on my table cause women who do this also smoke Virginia Slims but I'm not a smoker so this would be for decoration only.  OMG this is totally gonna be how I end up.  Good thing I stopped wearing 10lbs of makeup today because I'm tearing up.

Currently discussing.......

c:  Oh sorry chica. I'm doing three other things right now.

t:  Could you replace chica with ragazza or elle...thats italian and french and sounds a little cuter...not really into the spanish.

c:  I most certainly cannot because I speak Spanish and I'm positive you speak neither Spanish, Italian, nor French. How about you stick to English and don't try to get too cute!

t:  WTF NOW YOU SPEAK SPANISH??!!!!  Say something <<<LMFAO thats what people always say when you tell them you speak another language!  Oh and don't Google something to say!

c:  LMFAAAAAAAAAOOOOOOO!!!! I'm not fluent but I've been learning Spanish since the 1^st grade. I don't speak it often enough to travel to Spain and be with the people speaking Spanish. De donde vive? Don't google your answer! I know you only know the shxt you heard on Dora and Diego.

t:  Yooooooooooo I just spit out my girl scout cookie I'm not supposed to be eating.  I have never heard you say one single word.  Lies all lies.

c:  If I spoke to you what would you say besides, "speak English asssshole!"

t:  I would say something real smooth...why do Brazilians sound real sexy but the folks at Chipotle sound like "WTF did you say"???!!!!

c:  LOL!!! Chipotle workers sound sexy when they say, "block or peento beans?"

t:  I don't know if yall have white folks working at Chipotle's in Denver but damn do they mess ish up!

c:  Yes, at the register but the food slingers are Mexican.

t:  Ok that seems safe because I need a smooth transaction at the end.  I like to throw a curve ball every now and then and ask for a bag WITH handles...sheer panic!  Do it sometime and die laughing!!

Currently thinking...

1. Why does it cost so much to get divorced? If they charged $4k to get married, I probably would've given it a lot more thought to begin with (insert truth::: I was in the military and broke as hell so I wouldn't have gotten married at all!!). Now I rather get my closet installed and get a patio than pay for a divorce soooo we gone be married for a tad bit longer.

2. Men are 5x more confused about what they want in a woman then they say we are about them. This I know for sure.

I am certain...

That all the signs are pointing towards becoming a really cute lesbian, being single or possibly dating a thuggish gay man  for the rest of my life because (straight) men flucking suck.  Rahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Starting this ish!

Here was my thought process at about 6pm today:

1. Start a blog with my ridiculous friend
2. People will see how awesome, stupid, real, foolish we are and love it
