Some Thoughts

1.) I love Tim Tebow.  (I have come to believe the lie that if I put the words Tim Tebow in every single post on this ridiculously ludicrous blog, that when people google Tim Tebow, my blog will come up.  That being said it does not make this statement any less true.  I love Jesus.  He loves Jesus.  Therefore we should love each other, and make it legal!)  Also my fav dementia resident refers to him as "Bo-bo" or "Bo-Dee-Bo Dee-Bo Dee-Bo".

2.) When you hit a certain age is it mandatory to sign up for a dating site?  I've got everyone telling me to do it, and typically I give in to peer pressure.

3.) Why do women comedians feel the need to be extra vulgar and have dirty DIRTY DUH-HURTY mouths?!  My theory is because they think they are not as funny as men and feel the need to make up for it, when in reality they aren't as funny as men and those vulgarities are not going to make them funny.  (Not to say that women cannot be as funny or funnier than men, just that these specific women should find another profession).

4.) This man almost hit me with his car when I was running on Tuesday, and today (Thursday) he passed by me on the street and had a big smile for me and gave me a big wave.  I guess we are friends now; that's what a near death experience can do.

5.) I almost hit a man with my car today when he was running and then had to promptly park my car in which I stayed in pretending to be doing important things until he passed by.

6.) Every Wednesday I do "Cooking with Lisi" with my residents (most of whom have dementia) and this past Wednesday we made a delicious Bruschetta.  Before putting it into the oven I sprinkled some mozzarella cheese on each bread slice to which one of my favorite dementia residents yelled out "THERE IS NO SENSE IN MAKING IT LOOK PRETTY LET'S EAT ALREADY!"

7.) My roommate loves her cat.  I am a dog person.  I want to get a dog, small enough to be able to have it in an apartment, big enough to eat her cat.

8.) One of the tool-sheds in the aforementioned blog posts was from Indiana and because he had a country accent and is not from California I assumed he was a Southern Gentleman.  Nope turns out Indian is the Midwest.  Who knew?  Apparently every state but California.

9.) Had a two hour phone conversation with one of my best male friends.  He lives in Hawaii so even if there was interest on either end (which there is not) the distance would stamp that out stat, which brings me to my point: men and women CAN be Platonic friends.

10.) Seriously Tim Tebow, if we went on a date I think you would REALLY like me.  

In Kind Regards,
Lisi (AKA by my dementia resident LuLu, Cecilia, or Louuuuuuuuuuuuuu)

PS I think this is funny and not true nice guys haven't finished last since Jr. High.

So recently I got angry at the male sex.  The reason being I felt used physically by a non-christian bar hoping male (who is probably not a very gentlemanly person even if he has a country accent) and less than 1 week later I felt used emotionally by a supposed christian male.  It pissed me off and made me believe the lie that men use you; non-Christians physically and Christians emotionally.  In both these tool-shed-esk males defense, I knew better than how I acted and let them treat me poorly, however I didn't ask for it, just allowed it when it began to occur.

The truth of the matter is those two "gentleman" didn't act the way they should have.  They treated me poorly, and hurt me, but they are individually 1 person in a very large population.  It would be irresponsible to hypothesize about a whole group of people based on 1 or 2 tools bad behavior.  It has taken me a couple days to come to grips with that (a couple days longer than it should have) and made me realize those 2 individuals have issues, and I have some issues to allow their issues to hurt me.

That being said women should know that there are good men out there, I am related to some of the best.  I think in hurt and pain 1 or 2 individuals can ruin the good name of others and we should not allow that to happen even when it hurts and even when the thought of letting someone else physically or emotionally close to you again might result in the same pain.  What it can teach us is to be smart ladies!!  Because we are smart, and we fool ourselves into thinking this tool in front of us will not do exactly what you know he is about to do, because you would rather not deal with the ramifications at that moment but they will come later and they will come worse.

That being said, men please don't be tools; don't tell us you will take us to a Laker game when we know you are not going too.  Don't invite us to an intimate dinner for two or a cuddle fest or wrestle match just to get our advice on some other girl and to treat us like an emotional girlfriend.  And again ladies don't let men do this too you!!!

That is all.... :)
