WTF?

Seriously I ask you, What is wrong with people today? and yesterday? and in general?

Warning:This post may be a side effect of music overload.

1. Bama is officially an ego-maniac. This has nothing to do with me. and it never has. and I could kick myself for not getting that sooner. On occassion men may do stupid things, but they are not stupid. 3 guest appearance in 3 days. No gym for me today and maybe weights Friday morning...when he is still drooling. He is the aquatics director. I don't acquat. There is no conflict of interest here.

Mr. Perfect is the testament to being pretty for pretty's sake. I'm not trying to trash him, he's just not for me.

2. Sound-byte from this morning. "Why are YOU here? You are not dressed like a full time teacher or a sub? You are too young to be a parent, and to pretty to work here? Well anyway, you look nice, carry on." WTF? Backhanded compliment aside, who says that? Let me tell you about it.

I am teaching for Junior Achievement at a very private Catholic all girls school. It was pitched to me because apparently I am considered an "asset". Apparently the daughters of the most money in my city need to see someone like me (gag). I asked for an inner-city school this year, because asset that I am (gag part II), I would never have had access to a school like this. My mom just didn't have the $. and I would want a little girl like me to be able to see me, and all the possibility it implies. I still got this one. and it took a whole lot not to say something to the nun.

3. Pandora posts a copy of the CD cover when possible to go with the songs playing. Most of them are somebody's big face. pressed against the camera and trying to look sexy. and so much on certain stations is all that. WTF! When did we get to such a point where that was everything all the time. All we aspire to be is objects of entertainment. and so many of the albums out there were crap! Do you really think all of those artists are that thrilled to have that one album be there life's work. Are most of us really willing to sell our souls for 15 friggin minutes?

and then the song that come up is Kaskade's "it's you, it's me".
you never know who's waiting for you
you never know when love is coming your way
but if tonight i look again into your eyes
then it's you, and it's me you love

and I smile on the inside. While it is not here yet, it is coming. It has to be, I rock.
