Status Symbol Dogs??
Photo credit: Time.com
Evidently some dogs are also status symbol now... a Samoyed pup can cost up to $3K - $6.5K. Are these people insane?? My cat only cost $100, and have a longer life span, and cheaper pet insurance. :S

Do Normal Girls Hate Goddess Like Girls -- A Closer Look
First of all, I would like to say that I don't have anything against pretty girls, especially if they are nice. As much as we normal females would like to think that pretty women are mean and/or stupid, qualities like beauty, intelligence, and niceness are, unfortunately, not mutually exclusive. Fortunately, being a 40 year old woman in a happy marriage I don't discriminate, I like eye-candies of both genders. Then what is the problem? You may ask.
The problem came with the way men behave around goddess-like females. Let's be honest, we all know that men think with a certain part of their anatomy other than their brains. The symptom is particularly obvious with a pretty girl around. I want to clarify that I have no problems with most of men's behaviors around pretty girls. It is entirely okay that when a pretty girl enters the room, all men will swarm them, like bees attracted to honey, as a Chinese saying would say. As I have stated above, I'm in a happy relationship, I am not going to stand between a man and their shot as procreation, especially with a pretty woman. That is, assuming my husband is not one of those men. :) If a man wants to bend over backward for a woman, whether he has a shot of getting laid or not, that's his prerogative. What is not okay is when their acts of showing fondness towards said females infringe on the rights of other women around. For example, if a man wants to pay for goddess's meal, by all means. If he wants to give up his seat for her, by all means. What is not okay is to suggest that Goddess should eat free, and the bill should be divided among the remainder of the group, both males and females. Look, I am not shooting to get laid with Goddess, even if she's willing to. I have no vested interest. Anything that infringes on my share/perceived share will cause me to harbor negative feelings for Goddess.
In short, we normal girls really don't have anything against goddesses, other than maybe a tinge of jealousy. It's the men around them that made us dislike them.

Bluntness
I have been told quite a few times that I'm blunt. First couple times I was shocked. I didn't know I was like taht. By the third and fourth time, I have came to accept that the others are probably right and that is just the way I am. After all these years, I am perfectly happy with the way I am. Honey coating something is a lot of work. Lying (as defined by saying something that I don't believe in, not necessarily malicious) is a lot of work. So when my livelihood (work) is not being affected, I just don't care to be so subtle.
Do understand that there is a difference between bluntness and verbal diarrhea. While I have an opinion on just about anything, I do not have the desperate urge to share those opinions. I am perfectly happy keeping my opinions to myself. In fact, I will warn people about my bluntness, and if they don't want to hear the truth (people usually have an inkling, they just hope you will tell them what they want to hear instead), they probably should not solicit my comments.
There is nothing I hate more than delusional people asking me to perpetuate their delusions. It is their prerogative to be delusion and I certainly don't have the right or authority to burst their bubbles. However, if I have to listen to their delusional thoughts repeatedly, there will come a point when I'll just snap, and the truth will follow.

Jennifer Aniston's $42 Million Home
And people asked me "Why do you need an iPad?" Why do anyone need a $42 million house? And without sounding too sour-grapish, can you call a house that looks like a 4-star hotel a home? And the living testimonial that money cannot buy you a happy marriage. On a different note, she bought the house for $13 mil and selling it for $42 mil? If she can sell it at that price, that's what you'd call a killing.
I wonder how often this kitchen has been used. But I supposed you can always hire a chef. Heh.
The bedroom is kind of nice though. I like the bed. Hmmmm, I think Ikea sells something similar. LOL
