You're Just Like Everyone Else

It's funny how one little thing can set you off.
Playboy wants Wal-Mart women
Read the article

So what got me was the comment:
"We knew that this would be a very provocative thing for us to do," said John Thomas, editor of Playboy.com. "Wal-Mart has a conservative corporate image and we knew they wouldn't be thrilled. But we're hoping that the company will be pleased once they see how fun the pictures are and how empowered the women at Wal-Mart feel."

So posing nude for a magazine is supposed to make women feel empowered? Any other reason would have been fine with me. Like maybe all the chicks are really hot. Or giving the girls a chance at more money maybe? But really, empowerment? No offense, but I think if a woman is going to be empowered by that then her standards are too low. Rather she could be empowered by being a highly paid corporate executive, or renowned writer or performer or something. Not just like "hey everyone likes me because I took my clothes off and let them look." I dont care how tasteful playboy is about it. I could get the same thing for free walking around the red light district in Frankfurt.

ok. I'm done.

I like your shoes
I'm so so sick of wearing boots. When I get home I think i'd like to never see boots of any kind again. Oh except for those camo converse boots. Those are neat. But other than those, never again. I want to wear cute shoes. I want to wear my pink Dr. Martens. I would like to wear sandals. My feet want to see the sun. Maybe i'll go barefoot. Think of the possibilities!

Things you may not know about Teresa:
� When you send Teresa email, she likes to edit it for spelling and grammar.

� Sometimes she likes to pretend that she is in a music video. She sings into a hairbrush and dances in front of a mirror... naked.

� There is a vending machine in the pax terminal that is notorious for not dispensing drinks. You can get your change back and try again until you get one... and then still get your change back. Teresa never pays for drinks.

� May not be the neatest person in the world, but about three times a year wants to obsessively clean everything in sight. She also always wants to clean things for everyone else.

� Lives by the idea that: "Anything you can do, I can do better"

� Likes to go on adventurous outings so that she'll have more funny stories to tell later.

And now in the words of Strong Bad, "It is my intentions to sit down and play video games for several hours"

I'll admit it. I'm lonely. There's not much at home but I miss it. I miss Sheldon. It's strange being so far from someone you love. I mean we're far away from each other even when I'm home. We only see each other like once maybe twice a month when one of us makes the long drive to where ever the other is. But now it's even worse, because not only can I not see him, but I cant even hear his voice. So the plan is i'm going to get a phone card and call DSN to georgia... then from there get an outside line at the base and use the card to call south carolina.

Well last night I went drinking with the guys. Germany rocks because I can buy alcohol here. Today and the next two days I'm off work. Work is boring most days when no one is flying anywhere. Or when I have to deal with germans and cant understand what they're saying. I get bored and have lots of time to surf the internet. I encourage you all to email me to help me ameliorate the tedium of sitting on my ass all day long. Especially since when it's 5 am here... it's like 11pm over in the states... and there's no one online to talk to.

Speaking from experience
I dont wanna hear anyone complain about working, unless they know what it's like to work 60 hours a week. I've got it down... 24 hours in a day. 12 hoursand 15 minutes of work. If I want to get 8 full hours of sleep, then I have3 hours and 45 min of "me" time a day. It takes me one hour to shower and get ready for work and walk there. leaving me with 2 hours and 45 minutes of "me" time. That's not even time enough to get drunk and enjoy it. Thank god for days off.

Exhausted
Well, I went through here and deleted a bunch of crap. The insignificant, the rants... and decided to leave whatever made me smile. It'a been a long long day.... and what's annoying is when I look at the clock it's still 8am back home... and when I got to work this morning at 5 am here it was still 11 pm at home. Oh well. Me and my cool roomate got bitched at by our other roomate. She's old. Old people are grumpy. I dont want to be a grump when I get old. I dont miss home so much. I miss my Sheldon. I havent eaten in over 24 hours... that's not healthy and he worries about me. I havent been too hungry, and today in the terminal we had non stop passengers. Then I was told to go out back and sling bags on and off the plane. You know you think you're big and bad until you have to throw around bags that weigh like 50 pounds.... and there's like 200 of them. Then you're left in the fetal position on the ground with your weak wussy arms that cant even help you crawl inside. And then there's just no air conditioning in Germany. Today my roomate and I are going to the gym. We're doing aerobic cycling. I told my Sheldon when I got home he wouldnt even recognize me. I'm standing by that. Man, I'm gonna be so hot. Ok... at least i'll look really good in my clothes (Y)! The terminal is empty now... I dont know when the next flight is coming in, but i'm going to enjoy sitting on my ass for a while.

The Dream
So I had this whacktacular dream last night. I dreamt that the job that the guy did on my nails was really crappy and to make myself feel better I took Al and Bekie out so that we could all get our hair done. We went and bought dye because we wanted it to be a different color and we went to some crazy new salon. So Bekie goes first and she's sitting in the chair and the stylist comes in with a tray that has like a glass of milk and Oj and bacon and eggs and half of a grapefruit and a little flower in a vase... pretty much anything you see in the standard "balanced breakfast" on a TV commercial. The whole time I'm thinking "How nice! They're bringing us breakfast!" but the lady sets the tray down and picks up the grapefruit and smashes it on Bekies head. She does the same with all the other food, topping it off with the little flower and massaging it all in. And the Bekster just keeps talking to us all like nothing weird is going on at all. Then the lady starts rinsing it all off... but instead of tilting her head back into a sink... she sits Bekie inside a giant sink under a large bowlshaped shower head. So Bekie is sitting crosslegged inside a sink getting drenched and there's hair and water all in her face and she's looking like cousin It in a hurricane. She's just sitting there and then she starts singing the most beautiful song. It really was a good song... if I could remember it I would write it down and give it to her because I come up with some bitchin stuff in dreams. But at that point in the dream I decided it was all too crazy and I'd go for a bit and come back when they were done with Bekie. But then I woke up. So i never saw what her hair ended up looking like... but I dont ever want someone to put breakfast on my head.

Remember when...
Oh, to be in elementary school again. Always looking forward to recess, naptime and snack time! Words like 'career' and 'professional' weren't anywhere in your vocabulary. Talk about havin' it easy. When acting your age was what you did best. Back when boys had cooties, and hair pulling and name calling were public displays of affection. I think it would be awesome if for one day all the adults would take some time to remember times like that. So don't take offense when I pull your hair. Pooheads.
