Scrubbing It


Awhile ago I was in a slight debate regarding wearing pajama pants in public. Pajamas, sweats, lounge pants...some people just do not think a person should leave their home wearing them. This topic is clearly a matter of opinion and I would like to know what everyone thinks.


My opinion: Depends on where you are going. I will not wear my flannel pajamas out in public but you can bet your sweet ass I sport sweatpants ALL the time. Mostly I wear them if I am doing errands; grocery store, gas station, dollar store. Even then I try not looking too much like a scrub...I wear only my best sweats out (ie: no holes). If I am running over to my mom's or my dad's I'll wear them...I wear them over to my friend BabyAlpaca's house all the time. I just like being comfortable especially if it's my off day and I have no intention on showering or even getting dressed.


There are times I have seen people and think to myself "really". (I included a picture of one of my favorite 'really' moments) I am not one to judge because like I said I scrub it all the time. Also, wasn't it last year or maybe the year before that sweatpants and sweat shorts were the popular thing among high school girls? I wish that was the trend when I was in high school.


I'm curious as to what everyone thinks. The person I got into this debate with would never leave the house in sweats/pajamas. Said it makes her mad when she sees people wearing them because they couldn't even fix themselves up to go out in public.

Cheese Balls, Bedazzled Butts, and Trash Bags...

The other day (while still in FL) I was leaving the grocery store and like I always do out of common courtesy, I held the door open for two older women entering as I was leaving. If only I had a camera at the moment to capture the looks on their faces...they were in complete shock. Why? Because I held the door open? Yep. Amazing, right?! Things like that don't happen here in the Sunshine State. Why you ask-- well, my answer -- because in these parts I'm surrounded by cheese balls, bedazzled butts, and trash bags. Yes, I'll translate...

1. Cheese Balls- well, first refer to blog #1-- "the leather jacket wearing, sports car driving type of guy" is equivalent to a cheese ball. The too cool for school type. But here, they are a whole breed of their own. I'll discuss two versions. First, the more predominant one- the "rich" middle aged man on the prowl... (more to follow) OR the second type- the "young professional" mid-20 year old that either a) didn't have to do anything his whole life, is spoiled by his cheese ball father, and now works at dad's business and drives his dad's "cool" red sports car. OR b) a "young professional" mid-20 year old that leases a "cool" red sports car and pretends to be rich, and lives way over his means by maxing out his credit cards. Either way it all adds up to LAME in my book. Which brings me to #2--

2. Bedazzled Butts- aka the rich cougars that run this town. You've all see the $200 pair of jeans with gems on the butt (yes, that look like an over done bedazzled project). Well, here they come with a complete package--fake Double D's, botox, bleached blond hair, way too much blush, and a permanent wine glass in hand. Now these women are NEVER happy. So watch out...well especially if you're a young (er) naturally pretty girl. They'll be on the hunt to make you just as miserable. Usually they are married (or divorced) to a cheese ball type. However, if they are still married, they will never go out as a couple. Hence, the bedazzled cougar always on the prowl for a younger cheese ball. While her older cheese ball is searching for his own "trash bag" to satisfy his ego's needs. Which of course brings me to #3.

3. The Trash Bag- Here you cannot step outside without running into one of these beauties. She is the barely legal, half naked, over tanned, anorexic, ditsy type with only one life long goal- to find an all mighty cheese ball to be her sugar daddy... and the cycle continues...

But hey what can I say...it's good to have goals, right?

You Are What You Drive

Every person has opinions. Everyone has likes & dislikes. And everyone has prerequisites of what they are looking for in the opposite sex. When people ask me what kind of guy I am looking for, one of the first things out of mouth is "he has to drive a truck". Driving a truck distinguishes a man, makes him more masculine. He is most likely a manly man, one who knows how to replace a tail light, change a tire or has a hammer laying around for whenever something needs some pounding. Hunter? Maybe. Fisherman? Most likely. Beer drinker? Absolutely.

In contrast to a man who drives a truck we have the men who drive sport cars. (Who I would like to point out are most likely wearing leather jackets).They are the ones who only order 'captain & coke', have all black comforters and wear Affliction t-shirts. There is a certain presence a sports car man carries with himself. Maybe that he is going through a mid-life crisis, has some self-esteem issues or is looking for some serious attention. Then there are the few on the opposite end of the spectrum that want people to know that hey, they made it it and have the money to buy one. They can hit 90 mph on the way home from the bar and it is TOTALLY cool. Some sport car douches will even record themselves speeding home from the bar, alternating on themselves in their riding dirty driving position and the speedometer. Oh what a lucky girl to snag that catch!

This being said, can a girl tell a lot about a man from the vehicles he drives? Is this just something I feel passionately about or a common consensus among women? And if it is, what about a man who drives a purple cavalier?
