The curse.

So I think the only part of being a woman that I do not like is the crying that one said woman cannot control. This is unbelievably disagreeable.

Men can easily unravel me. I hate this. I remember a smug former work manager I once had who I desperately went to in an attempt to fix some work issues. His words were kind but condescending and dismissive. I remember being beyond mad at him as well as at my unraveling. More so at the latter issue.

I recently was speaking with my father in law. Same issues, same outcome.

Blast!

Tonight watching One Tree Hill (yes I know, I watch plenty of tv) I cried like 3 times. One Tree Hill! What the world? I mean don't get me wrong, they were sensitive lovely moments, but crying? Repeatedly? For the love of all things holy, gets yourself together woman!

Ok, I lied. There are two things about being a woman that I strongly dislike. That darn curse of eve is pretty rough also.

Exit those two symptoms and being a woman is pretty fair business.

The Road...

So I love the show October Road. I am watching it now. First off it needs to be said...Nick is....magnetic. A magnetic personality? Is that a kind of personality? Go with me on this for a minute if you would. He appears to be so thoughtful in his "look." It makes you (me) want to know what he is thinking. He is so intense...but kind. This is an affable combination. One does not want intense and out of control or intense and angry. But intense and kind, or loving even....

This is very attractive. (In a married platonic sort of way of course! HA!)

I enjoyed him when he was on One Tree Hill as well.

Anyway, I did enjoy the rest of the show also. Eddy being scared ... with Janet is sweet. Pizza girl always brings a smile. She actually hissed at the tv. HA! Poor Rooster. I liked how Dad's personality was more caring in this one and how he called Aubrey, "Aubs," even though I don't love the new girl playing that character. The former one seemed sweeter and cuter. This one seems like she could be a tricker of sorts, as the episode was trying to go in that direction I wondered why they had changed actresses and focused on that more than her current plot situation. I think the former actress, in her sweet cuteness could have made for a more dramatic..whatever is coming.

Back to this Nick personality for a moment. I have had several friends with this sort of magnetic personality. Surely everyone must be drawn to these people, no? Or perhaps it is more a chemistry thing, how personalities dance, mesh and collide with one another. I can bring to mind several people who I rarely think of, but when we are together, or even merely speaking, there is a sort of unspoken communication, sometimes a tension (good or bad) or some connectivity that is unexplainable on a surface level. There are ones that I think frequently of too. These (both mentioned) are the relationships I most enjoy. Although I neglect many of them. [The psychology of that is a whole nother post. ( I have confirmed with friend Dallin that the correct way to say that is "whole other" but I don't like it, so I am sticking with "whole nother." If that bothers you, please feel free to express your displeasure.)]

I do neglect several important relationships. I should address this.

Blog by guilt...

Well my dear friend Brenda used all manner of guilt to get me to start a blog. Apparently she thinks something interesting is going on here in Albuquerque that she has not been privy to. Maybe. Maybe not so much. Guess time will tell. Wish me wit!
