always a bridesmaid...

at the risk of sounding gay, im gonna say it anyway.. am I gonna end up being the perpetual "bridesmaid" ??
I just had a conversation with a friend about how worried she is about her relationship, and how scared that she and her boyfriend are goin too fast.. C'mon people!! Don't do this to me.
Here I am, watching my former fat/annoying/hopless friends enjoy pre-connubial bliss, while I'm (literally) watching the river go by (read the previous post)..
What went wrong? I feel like Joey at the end of friends.. and while on that subject.. whats the deal with that anyway? Its so unfair! It took them 10 years to hook the other 5 of them up.. would it have killed them to do this for another year and hook joey up with someone? Instead, they give him a crappy show to follow, and he'll forever be known as the one who didn't hook up.
Its like this new show thats coming out on television. About 7 friends, 6 of whom who hook up, and hte 7th dude who's left out.. What about Brian? (or something like that?)
Do television networks think we actually enjoy stuff like that? Does it give you "paired up" folk a good laugh to see wot the single people are upto?
sigh.
I'm ranting and raving far too much today. anything to get away from the dreaded work that needs to be done.

You should call this blog 'The Mystery of the Perpetual Rant'. Heh.

If it makes you feel better I think that show about the one guy who's not paired up ends up ruining a pair because he falls in love with his best friend's fiancee. Take that couples! And so you know my big idea is that Russell Simmons looks like he has progeria (aka little old man disease). Thanks to years of drug abuse he's prematurely aged beyond his 48 years, he's bald and always wears a baseball cap that is way too big for him, and his former role as Kimora's husband (a role which led him to be repeatedly photographed next to a prettier, younger & taller woman) made him look all the more enfeebled. Further, if you look at some pictures of Reverend Run, you'll see that Russell's little brother looks remarkably younger than Russell. Sure there's a 7 year age gap, but it looks more like 17 year age gap. Google some pictures of Russell Simmons and some pictures of children with Progeria, and I think you'll find that there is in fact a link. I think the DEA is missing out on a prime opportunity here to scare kids off using coke.
