It was the most ridiculous thing A STUPID SURVEY.
Anyway, I've been thinking more about this idea of not being enough. You all remember my friend from Erie, the one who thinks women should take things easy. Let's go back to the car battery example, should I have not picked the car battery up? I mean it wasn't that heavy, and I help my mom and dad carry things all the time. I can change oil, I can change a spare tire. What do I do with myself if I get into a bind and don't have a man with me? If I can't do these things for myself then what? I ask for help when I need it, but should I need a man to open the jar or pour my drink? I don't think so. My Mom tells me all the time that I don't need a man in my life. And I know that I don't. I can hook up a trailer, I can build walls, I can drive a big truck I watch sports, I LOVE FOOTBALL. I can do a lot of man like things. But just because I can do all those things doesn't mean that I don't want a man in my life. I don't want to die a lonley old women, I just want the respect I think I deserve for being independant. Don't tell me not to pick up the battery, don't tell me not to get dirty. I can get down with the best of them. I'm a woman, I can bear children that doesn't mean I'm totally helpless.
I told Erik yesterday that I would go to Prom with him, but I'm not going to WOW anyone this year. I'm thinking orange, or pink, or green. Michelle said her mom might make my dress for me. Which would rock! I want it to be a little more form fitting then my previously made prom dresses. I want to look nice because it's Erik's senior prom, but it's not mine so I'm not going to go flipping out over it. *All this talk of prom is making me miss Chris more, so I'm done*
