Every now and then, I get really annoyed and upset over little things that really should not matter. Most of the time, I get mad at my husband because of these little things. I am 24 and basically married, not married on paper just yet meaning we don't have the JOP thing but in Texas, we are married. We struggle from time to time with money and everything else. I see friends in relationships who brag about getting flowers, going out to dinner, always doing something with their partners and it usually drives me nuts. I have realized that getting upset over things like this is ridiculous and I am aware that I should not care what other couples are doing. However, I know that in the beginning of relationships, everything is happy and perfect but after a while, it dies down. It is normal.
Also, Josh and I have had to do things for ourselves for quite sometime. He was kicked out of his parents' house at age 18 and was told to pay for his rent and everything most people don't worry about till their mid-late 20s. He has been working since age 15 and paying for his own stuff since. I moved out of my mom's house when I was 21 and I have been paying for my own stuff since age 18. We never had the luxury of having our parents do everything for us.
Josh and I have talked about other couples in the past and wonder how the hell they can afford to spoil each other constantly and knowing they make less money than Josh does. Truth is, most people our age still live with mommy and daddy and have nothing to spend their money on but themselves. Must be nice. Everything we have, we have worked for.
We even discussed that when we have children, we don't get to have a huge party with people buying us shit. Same when we get married. We don't get any of that crap. Not that people who have it should feel bad for us but it's almost sad because they don't know what struggle is, they can easily depend on someone in their family to help them. Josh nor I have that option.
With all that said, I have realized that even though it really sucks not being able to suck on the tit of my parents for shit….there is a great sense of accomplishment knowing we don't need our family to make things happen for us. Josh might not buy me flowers all the time but we have a badass house, two tvs, four dogs, a cat, and a truck that runs. We pay for EVERYTHING we have with NO help.
I feel bad for those who are so used to having help…when their family dies, they are going to have a really hard time doing things for themselves.
Best of luck to the spoiled brats in the world.

The Walking Dead is a dud
I have been wanting to write a blog about this show for quite awhile but never got around to it. Over a year ago, I was told the show was available on Netflix to watch so I figured, what the heck? So, I curled up on the couch and started season 1 and after about 10 minutes, I wanted to turn it off. Why? You might ask. Well, the answer is simple, it is fake. Duh, right? When I say fake, I don't mean the obvious part that it is a show but the story line. But, my friend told me to keep watching and I would not be disappointed because it was going to "get good". In my opinion, that was when I stopped believing him.
The hours passed and I continued to force myself to watch the entire first season, I even watched about four or five episodes into season two. As the first season went on all I could think is WTF am I watching and not in a good way. I never understood the story line. Still don't.
Here are my issues with this show.
Why did the zombies move slowly in the beginning but by the end of season one and almost all of season two…they somehow run now? When and WHY did this happen?
Why is their blood red?
How did all of them get the strength to get up once they were bit, died, and then came back undead?
While in the underground lab…the scientist clearly states that the frontal lobe has been destroyed. Well, I have a degree in psychology and IF that were true in their storyline…their movement would be compromised. For those who do not understand that…the walkers would not be able to move much if at all and they sure as hell would NOT be able to lift their body in any way. Meaning reaching for people, stepping onto an RV (HORRIBLE scene), or anything of that nature. It would not be possible.
In season two…a few "walkers" in the woods actually jump…clearly showing they are actors. WTF?
How is it that they would hide under cars and the walkers just walked around them. Yet, when in a house or something, they can "smell" or "hear" the living. Doesn't make any sense.
Those are just SOME of the issues I have with this show…which is why I completely stopped watching it for over a year until my husband decided he wanted to try it out so I figured I would give it another shot. And while watching it with him, he was asking the questions I had been asking myself in the past. So, I know it's not just me not enjoying the show or "having a lack of imagination"…thats the issue for me….there is no imagination. I cannot watch a show that does not answer it's own questions that are so obvious.
Obviously most people who watch and enjoy the show are those who really love zombies and I can understand that. However, anyone who is a FAN of zombies will know that this show is just embarrassing.
Now, the characters are interesting KIND OF. I have a huge problem with the wife and I think she is a whore. Regardless if she thought her husband was dead or not, she could have waited more than a month to start fucking (excuse the langauge) her husband's best friend. The best friend is a douche bag would lied to get at the wife and he is a killer. To be honest, the rest of the characters are expendable.
If you have seen the show, feel free to try and argue with me or say I am wrong, etc. I realize the show is for entertainment purposes….go figure. And in someways, it is entertaining. However, for a show that is meant to be happening now and be realistic….they should have realized how stupid the writing is. OR…..the writers are thinking that people are stupid and wouldn't notice these things. Either way, it's sad because had they thought more about the simple things, this show could have been really really good.

Fake ass relationships
"I am so in love"
"Never been with a guy who loves this like a do"
"He is the best sex I have ever had"
"He is so big. hehe"
"My ex is nothing to compared to my new boyfriend"
Those are just some of the things I have seen people say when they get into a new relationship. Every time I see it, I just laugh at how stupid people are. Girls lie 80% of the time when they say a guy is "big", seriously….it is true. Now, yes some guys are gifted and they deserve to be bragged about…however, if a girl has said it about every boyfriend she has had…she is a fucking liar. Not that many guys are THAT above average.
New relationships are a fun time and I am not talking away from that but get the fuck out of here with that "he is amazing" bullshit. You know damn well that in a year or two, you are going to be saying the same thing about some new poor fool. The first few months everything is all rainbows and candy corn which I get, I have been there…in high school. I remember every time I got into a relationship it was "amazing" because the guy is so sweet. Enjoy it while you think it lasts.
I have been with my guy over 2 years which is not a long time at all. My longest relationship was 4 years and thats when I was 16-20. However I am now 24 and have learned a shit load after being in relationships. As angry and bitter as it may sound, I no longer believe in fairy tales. The exist in story books, thats it. When my guy and I got together he was the most romantic guy and was the only guy I have ever been with who was actually WANTING to do things to make me happy. When I moved to Texas to be with him (after 3 months of knowing him) we fought ALL the time. Literally….ALL the time. It was borderline abusive because we have such stronger personalities. Oddly enough it worked out for sure because we are still together and in love. Go figure.
I learned that pretending a relationship is better than it is makes no sense and all it does is makes you look like an idiot to smart people (such as myself) who can see through your bullshit. Being in love all the time is just annoying. If you always think you are in it, how are you going to know when you actually find it? Not everything has to be rainbows and sunshine in order to find love or to actually be in love. I am thankful for my relationship with my guy even if it doesn't last. He is a relationship that I will remember because he taught me things and didn't bullshit me like every other guy did.
Love is something you learn, it is not something that just happens.
You'll realize this when you grow up and get out of the "everything is perfect" mindset because you know in a few months your relationship will go to shit and you'll be talking shit about him like you did your last ex. If you think you are grown up enough to be in love, be grown up enough to realize the difference.
