Domestication

Since I’ve been living on my own, I feel as though I have become more domesticated. Or maybe its more the fact that it has always been there, but just never given a time to shine.

I live in a townhouse with two boys. People know me as “mama bear”. Is it just boys instinct to leave things everywhere without picking them up? I’m not complaining, because I have put myself in this situation. But I am starting to realize how moms feel. I’m fuckin 25!! I don’t think I’m supposed to know what a mom feels! Glasses everywhere, mail, papers … wrapers… dishes!!! I tested it out once. Didn’t do a goddamn thing for a week. Needless to say the house was a mess!!!

Why can’t they clean the bathroom, wash dishes, or take out the garbage without being asked? I am absolutely perplexed. Dishes are dirty, wash them. Garbage is full, take it out. Why do I consantly have to ask them to do things?

My theory is this. Perhaps they came from a family where, they didn’t have to do a goddamn thing. Mom was always there to pick up after them, wash their dishes, cook, whatever. Now if this is the case, does that mean I have to take that role? Or am I allowed to nag and nag without them resenting me.

So … at the age of 25, I am now raising a 26 year old and a 30 year old.

Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

White Don't Make Right…

As no surprise, the Sonics draft a white guy in the lottery. Okay, so there’s a lot of hype about this guy, but let’s not get over the fact that this kid ain’t very big/strong and even (my fantasy monster) Jamaal Magloire will tear him up! Only upside to this is that they said Jack Sikma wants to work with this kid to develop him. Jack Sikma is like a god up here and he’s one of the few good white centers in nba history. Well, all I can say is that good ol’ Nate McMillan will probably get fired after this season because there’s no way in hell the Sonics are making the playoffs with this white boy.

Sebastian Telfair to the Blazers….that rocks!

Wondering…

Am I the only girl on this site? I am feeling as though I am with all this sports talk and boobs and what not. Now, don’t get me wrong … I can admit that Jessica’s breasts are absolutely mezmerizing and may have possibly imagined a short lesbian interaction with her … but I feel like I’m the only girl here. Am I complaining? No. Just wondering if there are any other females out there.

The Ashlee Simpson Show…

…is a waste of tv airtime.

I’ve not watched a whole episode, I can’t even sit through 2 minutes of it consecutively at a time. But I swear, she has no talent and that show is just waste of time.

So my thinking is that Jessica got her that show on MTV as apart of negotiations to do another season of Newlyweds because her sister really doesn’t have the looks that Jessica has so there really is no reason you’d want cameras following her around. I guess Ashlee apparently lives in a regular apartment and doesn’t know how to sweep or mop. That leads to me a tangent where I think someone should really bitch slap their parents for just picking up on their two daughters never having to teach them how to do anything. My gosh, were the parents too busy exploiting their daughters to make them money that they didn’t even bother teaching them how to sweep a fuckin floor. Give me a fuckin break! Do they have any other children that we don’t know about that they are about to exploit? Maybe the father can get the mom pregnant and they can make another MTV reality show following them around as she’s about to give birth to another complete idiot Simpson. Anyways, back to the focus of the no talent Ashlee Simpson…

The First Step - Leo Tolstoy

Ok, I�ve been meaning to post this bad boy for a while, so why not while we�re on the topic of obesity and the Atkin�s diet. This will be one of my few posts where it feels like the piece was written a long time ago, but the jist of the writing makes a lot of sense if applied to our lives. If I can succeed in applying 10% of what he writes about, I would be content. True discipline in areas of dieting, thought, exercise, etc is so hard to achieve that I�m beginning to think that you have to be born with it. I swear, it�s damn hard stuff!

By the way, this is part of a ten section piece (not as long as it sounds�just divided into sections) that I intend to slowly post up—I can only type so much & so fast. Most of you will find it corny, but it is aimed at people looking to plant the seed of change within themselves that will hopefully bear fruit later in life.

Anyway, for the few who will read it, enjoy�

Part VIII - The First Step by Leo Tolstoy

There never has been, and cannot be, a righteous life without temperance. Apart from temperance no righteous life is imaginable. The attainment of righteousness must commence with it.

I Have No Life.

Ok, I was hestitating in sharing this, but I know that some of you might want to learn, so here it is: A full tutorial on doing various tricks with poker chips! I’m trying to do the chip flip with my Goat chips Jared gave me, but I’m having no luck. Anyway, it comes with videos and all! Check it out here. And, yes, to answer your question, I am indeed a sad-sad person.
