My thoughts on my future hypothetical Family- and a list
I have found a good reason to have a family- One being the fact that I would actually have a reason to shop at the stores that sell in bulk -like Sam’s Club for the Midwest an BJ’s for the Easterners-
Now the downfalls to having a family:
Have you ever seen the stickers on the back a soccer mom’s SUV- the stick people sketch of each member of the family and any pets- like Dad goes to work so he has a tie- and mom is waving and smiling and Tommy likes hockey so he’s a hockey player and Sally likes ballet so she’s a ballet dancer- and of course the family dog skip has his own sketch- WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE INEVITABLY GET DIVORCED- do you scratch off some of the family but who goes with Dad and who goes with Mom- who gets the dog- WHO THOUGHT THOSE WERE A GOOD IDEA-
Another Bad- Shopping with kids- they scream- they cry- they repeat things like a parrot- they run and hide- and if you don’t find them before you leave the store you’re the bad parent- and in today’s society any pissed off 7-year-old with any kind of brains just screams you’re not my mom- stranger- stranger- stranger- until they get what they want-
Another Bad-
Picture a two foot tall little blond ball of energy- kicking people in the shins- destroying things with permanent marker- yelling at peoples’ animals to go away- can you picture this–I can- I can picture it vividly stating “I will Not”- of course it could not be as simple as No- Nope- Not Happening but a very specifically – “I will NOT”– or the look of utter disgust I probably gave every third person I met as a child- and when people offered me anything out of my normal 7 things I liked to eat- I scrunched my face and said EWWW- let’s just say I think the thought of a mini me- is really scary- especially one with a blackberry Googling everything thing-
List of the Day: I decided to make a vs list-
I like:
Beer over Wine
Outdoors over indoors
Lake over the Beach
Driver over Passenger
Drive Fast- over Safe and Steady
Mexican food over anything on the East Coast
Dunkin over Bucks
Morning over Evening
Choc Milk- no comparison
Coca Cola vs Pepsi
Over instead of Under (toilet paper)
Tequila instead of Rum or Vodka- unless we’re talking Long Islands
