Quick - before I lose it….do something!

You think I’ve lost it?  You think I’ve lost it?!  No, my mind is still here…torturing me day and night.  Wouldn’t it be nice if I could just tell my mind to “get lost”?

I saw some things on TV about savants lately.  Those people are really incredible.  I had no idea there were real people out there just like the Rain Man.  Even less did I know that I actually was friends with one when I was a teenager.  We dreamed up plans to help the world out of its tailspin by being a sort of organization of anti-cyber-terrorism.  Kind of like cyber-terrorists, only - doing it for good instead of evil.  Doing it against terrorist groups and even corrupt governments and organizations.  I don’t know, …he may hate me for spilling that now..but he hasn’t spoken to me in years.

This dude - we’ll call him ‘M’ for short, knew how everything was run, done, planned, executed, and covered up.  It didn’t matter what it was, M had his ways of knowing things.  I thought of myself as an enthusiastic supporter, but yet a leader because no one but the two of us knew anything about these plans.  I tried to help keep us organized and focused, but he had a tremendous power against focus.  He would never fully accomplish any of the objectives we needed just for communication and organization of our outrageous ideas.

We grew apart and eventually I ended up losing everything from that time of my life as many who know me will testify.  Little did I know that he had met some of my local friends on the internet, gained rapport with them and then actually moved in with them for a while.  This was huge as he is a native of a distant land.  Apparently he got to know my friends pretty well.  How creepy is that?  All this, while I was out of communication with everyone I knew.

I never discovered that this savant had been in my own land and so near my friends until recently when one of my friends told me the story that he thought I knew.  I only found it absolutely incredible that he knew M and even knew of his crazy ideas for fixing the world …and our universe.

If this guy really does know what I think he knows….he is either extremely dangerous (as he seems emotionally volatile to me), or extremely fantastic.  If he can actually remain positive, and eventually keep focused, …he might accomplish some of the goals we had in mind.

Either way - …all of this is really not on-topic.  I was going to talk about how I’m so tired of everything that I feel like I’m just about to lose my mind. Actually, if I don’t stop and go eat dinner…that’s what will actually be lost - a decent meal that I spent a long time fixing.

Alright, I am sorry, but who says that women get to decide if women look sexy with particular features or lack thereof?  That’s what I’m asking because I was watching TV today and a stupid commercial for some exercise/body-building product came on, and this silly lady has the nerve to say “I think women look great with muscles.” - *AHEM* - *REALLY??*  I mean, ..uh since when does the opinion of looking great to the opposite sex actually count when it comes from that sex which is being talked about?

Come on.  No, really.  Put me in that position.  I could easily say something rather absurd like “Guys look great with a hernia and sweat seeping out of every pore.”  Righhhht.  Isn’t that ridiculous?  I guess it still is a matter of personal taste, but it just doesn’t sound right coming from a woman that women look great with muscles.

So to add to my list of pet peeves with the modern era of “Sex Appeal”, I declare this:

#4: Muscles.

Women have secret hidden strength when they need it.  Why do they need to show it?  I think women showing unneeded muscles is like giving a man a quadruple dose of Estrogen and a pair of speedos - oh and throw in a bit of helium from a balloon.  It just doesn’t need to happen.

My final thoughts: Women look great skinny and frail.  Muscles don’t mix with women.  Feminine sides don’t mix with men.  Don’t you dare mess with my masculinity mister!

I’ve got a a few pet peeves with how this modern era is trying to push some ideal of sex appeal on us..

At least it doesn’t quite appeal to me. ….in fact they’re kind of turn-offs. And this has to do with women, so don’t be offended if I happen to pick on something you do..its not personal, just something I don’t prefer.

3) Heavy make-up, or any at all when there is a lot of natural beauty.
You might think I’m kidding, ..but when I see a woman who I’ve seen without make-up on who looks fantastic without it putting on make-up, it almost makes me sick. Why would they cover up only to look fake?

2) Excess cleavage exposed.
What? Yes. Indeed. I think there comes a point when too much is distasteful. Those tops that are extremely low-cut, or at least heavily exposed in the middle of the chest area, or bikini tops that barely cover just the nipples and nothing more,….and those hot-pants/shorts that are skin tight and look like they’re going up the butt-crack.. come on. Thats not fashion - thats just "I like the look of hookers because it gets me attention."  Don’t get me wrong…there is an amount which would seem acceptable and fashionable……just don’t take it too far.

AND NOW …for the main reason I am blogging about this…the number 1 pet peeve:
1) TANNING.
I know - you’re probably saying to yourself "OMG! Whats wrong with a good tan?!" The problem lies mostly in the fact that it is either trying to cover up something, or making something that is naturally pretty into something …different - but not natural looking.

Besides the fact that these gawd-awful practices are horrendously expensive; They just don’t look as good as people might think!

Here’s how I like ‘em: Skinny, pale, and little or no make-up. There are some naturally darker women who really look beautiful, and those are the exception to the pale rule. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE though, …Don’t try to make yourself dark if you aren’t dark!
