Things my mother says to me while I'm drinking a third Fat Tire Ale in the course of four hours and playing XBox Live.
"Pete, I wanted to tell you something."
"Yes?"
"See, the guys at my work, they sit there and they work out and they try to lose weight, but they drink beer. So they can't lose weight. I've seen you drink two beers since I got here."
"I don't really drink that much beer, I think I'll be fine."
"But see, they diet and they exercise, but they don't lose weight!"
"That just tells me they don't diet and exercise. And I don't drink that much. Seriously."
"But.."
"No, seriously. Stop." (I was about to get mean if she didn't stop. I'm glad she did.)
You must realize that her giving anyone ANY form of weight control advice is akin to a heroin addict talking to someone about self control.
Yes, I could use to loose 20-30lbs. But that realistically is all me and my eating way too much crap.
Frustratingggggggg.
This just leads me to believe that to ensure sanity for the remainder of my life:
-If it can be commonly assumed that a child will look for a mate that reminds them of their opposite sex parent
-Then if I find myself attracted to someone on a mental level, I should probably run away
-So does that mean I should find someone I find physically attractive but mentally someone I abhor?
That or I can just stay single for the rest of my life.
Yeah. That'll work.
