This isnt a Fashion Show

Do you know what really honks me off? Im getting so damn sick and tired of watching tv or reading magazines and seeing all these hair models or big muscle men or people with a great figure on them. You look at the magazines in a grocery store and who's on them? Lindsay Lohan, Snooki, Brad Pitt, Bradley Cooper, The Kardashians (Which I like by the way, more on that another time), Heidi and Spencer etc.
I was going to divide this post into sections, Television shows and magazines but I think there both the same. Look at television shows or magazines. They are polluted with people who have good looking bodies, 6 pack abs, nice hair but you compare that some of the actors and actresses trying to make it on tv, the models wouldnt last 10 mins. The truth is that people see these "actors" or "entertainers" as a one trick pony. Get past the great bodies and the hair and smiles and what is there? Nothing. Now to be fair, some of the models can get the job done. They can act, sing, dance, whatever. But its few and far between. Do you know how intimating that is, seeing all these people with not a hair out of place, perfect bodies etc.? Where does that leave average people like me? I'll tell you where that leaves you. On the outside looking in. Now you take somebody like me or someone looking for work. We can work hard and kick ass but do we get a break? No. Yet the "Snooki's" of the world get ahead. With my life or anybody who's struggling right now, do you honestly think Snooki would last 5 mins. in my world or someone's world without the glitz and glamour? No. Face it, compared to some people, Snooki has had a "Tea Party".
In closing, I'll say this. Im not Bradley Cooper or Brad Pitt. I dont have 6 pack abs but do have a gut. But you compare me to Snooki or anybody else, they dont stand a chance. The sad thing is that we are on the outside looking in. The people that busts there ass trying to make it in acting never get the break. Yet the Snooki's and the Lindsay Lohan's do. How is that fair? To some, that may come off as being bitter or bitching but you know what I, and a lot of other people, have every right to feel that way. The models get ahead and we get knowhere. Im pretty sick of it to be honest. The people who bust there ass, they should be on top. And for those models out there, I think your 15 mins. are just about up.

Looking for Love in all the Wrong Places

This is something that really honks me off. Women. I think Flounder said it best in "Animal House". "Women, you cant live with them, you cant live without them". Now, look, I admit to looking at a pretty lady every once in a while but I just dont think I have anything in common with the opposite sex. Im really not the dating type. Im very complex when it comes to this because in one breath I would really like a girlfriend, someone to talk to and hang out with. On the other hand, I just dont want to be tied down right now. Maybe dating is not meant to be for me because I just know that I would be paranoid all the time. Now, I want to stress paranoid but not controlling. I mean you would have a beautiful girl dating me. Why? Im not exactly Brad Pitt or Bradley Cooper.
Im not going to lie. New Year's Eve or Valentine's Day isnt exactly a great day that I look forward too. Not only did my grandmother pass away on Dec. 30,2010 but I never really had anybody to spend New Year's Eve or Valentine's Day with. Its actually very lonely for me but I deal with it. Even if I was trying to look for someone, where would I look? I really dont want to use the internet to find someone because you never know who's crazy on there. That also goes for personnals in the newspaper as well. I just know that I would be very nervous talking around women and blow it. I try to be upbeat and funny and tell jokes, as you well know, but I wonder if my jokes would fly. If you say be yourself, thats fine but I dont think many women would want me to recite the Super Bowls(Note to self, I have to keep up with that).
Are there any single women out there that just want to have fun, date and talk and stuff? I'll be honest, I really dont have any intentions on getting married right now. I feel sometimes that I never want to get married. I just need me time, you know? Im not knocking marriage and I wish people who are married or about to get married all the luck in the world but I dont think its for me. It just seems like a lot of hoopla and stress with getting married. I know Im probably wrong with that assumption.
Let me ask you, do you guys see me with someone? It would be nice to have someone to talk to or call all the time but I dont know. I remember on the series premiere of "Friends" Joey and Chandler encouraging Ross to "grab a spoon" when talking about how there are so many ice cream flavors out there and equating that to women. I dont know if Im ready to "grab a spoon". Knowing my luck, if I did have ice cream and "grab a spoon", I would get a major headrush.
