Broke-Ass developments

juldeaNot like my whole life is entirely broke-ass, but just a couple of things I thought I'd share...
1) On the phone with my mother last night, she mentioned that my little sister's boyfriend got her a Ring. Yes, a Ring. Capital R and all. My sister is 19 and her boyfriend is either 20 or 21, I can't quite remember. He's younger than me, at any rate. Yeah, so they slept together 3 days after they met (um, mom didn't tell me this part, Deanna did, a while back) and have been living together this summer... That's still rather broke-ass. Mom reported that Deanna has been saying it will be a "really long engagement"... but still. I think they're going just a bit too fast. My views on the subject is that "really long engagements" can be scaled down and called "promises", and the time for the ring is the time when you're ready to do things like set a date and start calling caterers. Oh well.
2) Much less emotionally broke-ass, but confusing. Woke up, stepped on the scale - 151.5. Cool. Went to the bathroom, realized that I usually weigh myself after such an activity, stepped back on the scale. 152. ?????? How did I gain weight?? Very confusing. Ah well, still as low as it's been. :)
3) Cats got in a fight on my bed the other night. On me. Well, on my ankle. Come see the 3 deep, long, red-from-dried-blood scratches! Dumb cats.
Well, my dad arrives in a few hours, so I've gotta get showered and dressed and all to meet him. Hooray for days off school and work, by the way!
59 hours. *bounce*

You can't report that you're sister is easy without expecting some sort of "hooray for sluts" comment.
Also, I think Ty has turned down sex. At least 3 times in his life. Mind you, two of those times were because a man propositioned him, and Ty has yet to free himself from the bonds of heterosexuality.
The third time was probably because I was full of alcohol and he wasn't sure that he {befuddled as Ty was} fully understood the ethical implications of the situation, and so wisely decided that he should not fuck while under the influence. Ty's a real softy for ethics.
God's grace be with you and your sister,
Oliver Cromwell,
Lord Protector of England,
Huge Sagging Gut, With Attendant Hunger Pangs.

on 5 Jul 2001 08:50 (UTC)My sister at least has standards, and has waited for someone who, for his age, is pretty damn mature and intelligent, has his shit together, and I respect for the most part.
Unlike some people I know, who prey on girls with low self-esteem because he knows they are easy lays - since they don't believe they can get any better. Who don't have any standards besides "am I sure this won't bother me later?". Who claims 3 different women to be "the love of my life", and then goes to sleep with another. If you call that ethics, I call it revolting and pitiful.
