Negative Nancy

This morning when I jumped onto my favorite website... facebook duh! I started reading my news feed and then I came to one post in particular. This person was talking about how someone just told them how much of a miserable person they were and they were a buzz kill to be around but then told them they still loved them. Then they said something like, WTF?

Then I got curious and I want to be McGruff the crime dog and investigate. So I looked at this persons facebook page and started reading what seemed like an endless amount of negative status updates. I mean there was not one single good status update that I read on the first second or third page.

Not that it is any of my business but seriously, if you would just take some time to stop bitching about every little bad thing that happens to you people would actually care. Also when I was reading these updates I saw that no one was commenting on them. NO ONE.

Secondly, at least that person had the balls to tell you to your face that they think you are negative. Sometimes the truth hurts and it really hurts when it comes from people that genuinely love and care for you. My sister says I am the most negative person and you know what... she might be right but I beg to differ sometimes. I personally think I am more of a realist a lot of the time but what the hell do I know? I am not sitting back and watching myself. Maybe she is right? So chances are she is probably seeing something that I am failing to see all together.

My advice is that you should listen to this person who said this to you because maybe they care enough to want to get you to see that you might just be in a funk and they want what is best for you... your happiness. Who knows, maybe if you would stop being such a negative Nancy people would actually want to care about what was going on in your life and stop telling you that you are a miserable person.



Just sayin.

OMG! It's Smoking!

Tonight we went on an adults only family date. Or should I say that I crashed Jamie and Lucas' date. We were going to eat dinner and go to a movie.

Sounds normal right? Yeah, no.

We decided that we were going to eat at Chili's no wait, chinese, no wait Five Guys, no even better we ended up at Hooter's. Classy! Well, it has been raining here all day and by the time we got done eating crappy food and served by a waitress that hated us. We go to leave and it is pouring down rain.

Jamie and I decide that we want Lucas to go get the car and we will just jump in. Well, since Lucas is a clown at heart he thought it would be funny to honk the horn at us as we are getting in the car.

Big mistake. The horn actually gets stuck and is going at full blast in front of Hooter's. I mean it was just like the part in Little Miss Sunshine when the horn gets stuck on the VW bus. Literally we are sitting there and the horn won't shut off. So Lucas decides to shut the car off thinking that the horn would turn off if the key was not in the ignition. Wrong! It is still going.

Bright idea number two is for Lucas to start hitting the steering wheel as hard as he can to see if he can get the horn to stop. No. Still blasting. So he decides to move the car before someone calls the police.

Good idea. So now he looks down at the steering wheel and smoke is coming out. Then next thing that is said, "Oh my god, it's smoking!" At this point I am looking and getting scared because this car could catch on fire!

Bright idea number three... Lucas attempts to peel back the rubber/plastic that covers the horn mechanism. Not happening.

Finally... the horn shorts itself out because it is pouring rain and it comes to a slow and painful death. Literally this thing sounded like the wind down of a cartoon.

Moral of the story. It isn't funny to honk the horn in the rain of a Saturn Vue. It might just start smoking.
