Sorry for the delay. I apologize for being a bad blogger.
So anyway, I am disgusted by how many married couples seem to hate each other. I am totally in no rush to get married what so ever, but this just makes me think why? Besides the tax break and the financial positives if your husband/wife dies and you are automatically granted their life insurance check (which is a tragedy and I wish on no one, but still an upside if it does happen at least you're entitled "on paper")... why else get married if everyone is so miserable?
Many of the married couples I work with just seem entirely disgusted with each other. In meetings when one has to leave early (usually the husband), they shake hands and thank everyone in the meeting saying their good-byes, except they always seem to forget to even acknowledge their wives... ??? WTF is that? And their wives are always meek little mouses and seem so suppressed as women.
Don't take that the wrong way, I'm not necessarily all for the womens' progressive movement and all that shit. Lord knows if I was financially supported and didn't have to work all the time I would go for it, but unfortunately in today's world most aren't so lucky. I would love to clean the house and work in the garden and have dinner ready on the table at exactly 6 o'clock right when my husband walked through the door. I would love to volunteer and be some chairwoman on some board doing important great things. But in reality that probably won't ever happen. The weird part is, all these almost non-existent women aren't employed.
I just don't understand where the hatred comes from and how they remain still together...??? Just something to ponder about I guess. And I also am in no way promoting divorce... I just don't understand why there is absolutely no effort to fix what's broken rather than just settle and say it is what it is...
Anyway, I guess the moral of the story is to always love the one you choose and never let yourself forget why.
Sorry to get all mushy but we all need to slow the hell down once in awhile and stop and smell the roses.

Hello? Is anybody there?
What is it with guys ignoring you when you ask a question? Seriously what the hell? My dad does it. My brother does it. My boyfriend does it. My boss does it. My guy friends do it. What the hell is in their genes that makes them unable to answer questions sometimes? It really drives me freaking crazy. I can understand if it's some smart ass question that I'm asking, and I don't expect an answer anyway. They would probably be stupid to answer one of those rhetorical bastards of a question... and they know it.
Guys know questions they just shouldn't even answer... Do I look fat in this? Do you still think I look beautiful right now? (When you're shitfaced, bawling, puking in the toilet while you just pissed your pants...) Hopefully, most women know they should even ask these stupid questions; unless they are actually trying to start a fight and not really looking for an answer. And if that's the case good luck because those fights never end well anyway, so I try to avoid that shit at all costs. The less drama the better. I got enough fucked up shit going on in my life to have to worry about a pointless fight that I started for no reason. Thanks, but I'll pass...
That sort of non-answering is definitely not what I'm talking about. It's questions about nothing that I'm referring to. Just random jibber jabber but you're actually looking for a response that drives me to crazy town and back again.
I understand that guys have a short attention span, and if you're the dumbie who tries to talk to them during an intense point of Modern Warfare, or during OT of the Bears/Packers game, you're getting a definite delayed, "what/huh?" [with the head cock a dog makes when you ask if they "wanna gofora walk"]. If you're lucky you'll actually get a response, but don't expect a long, intellectual conversation here. If he's a real ape he'll just ignore you, but only because his attention span is well below the average man which probably has some distant relation to the definition of where A.D.D. comes from.
So my problem with the non-answering is when you're talking to them, you've already gotten a response or two and then all of a sudden.... silence. Sometimes I wonder, am I even talking? Sometimes I'll ask question after question consecutively; and it's just my brain thinking out loud so I get that it might feel like overload and I know I jump around from subject to subject, so I get that too. But it's just the shut off that I don't get. Like the brain just turns off... Someone please explain. I only don't answer to people who are severely annoying me but I have to deal with and even then I at least pretend I didn't hear and answer with a "what?" and a "oh, I didn't hear you"...
I think it's just overall laziness. Like men's brains can only handle SO much and then it's like, 'hey I need a quick cat nap'... I don't know. But it drives me nuts.
What? Are you still talking? Because no one is listening.
