Survivor Wrapup

First of all, we've been ignoring our site for far too long. But electrons have to take a back seat when in one month your car breaks down, your son gets an ear infection, there are 4 doctor visits, two ridiculously expensive and tortuous dentist visits, a two week deposit for a new day care, Mother's Day, two birthdays, a string of bad hair days and a dangerous brush with a single digit checking account balance.

Now that things are righting themselves, I have the mental energy to start extending my harsh and unending criticism to all things again.

Survivor: At least Boston Rob didn't win. That guy is just the kind of trashy fool that thinks he's admired by all women, yet at the same time he's shakingly insecure. His false bravado, third-grade attempts at strategy and horrible facial hair patterns were getting on my nerves. But I don't think the final pair was that much better.

I can't help thinking "Whoa Nell-eh!" Every time I see Neleh's name. If you want your kid's name pronounced that way, name her Naleea or even Nalia. And "Oh my heck!" is quickly replacing "Hm, I guess the Novocain isn't working." as my least favorite phrase ever.

But Vecepia. Oh V, you disappoint me. I can jive with Christianity. If you're all into living your life the way a man named Jesus did, I think that's great. But I have a hard time believing that Jesus' intention was to encourage deceit -- as long as you ask for forgiveness afterwards. In one confessional (how appropriate), V admits that betraying a friend was wrong of her, but absolves herself by saying that as long as she asked God and the person for forgiveness later, it was all okay. You've got two buns and no meat, honey! Aren't you missing the whole repentance part?!

Now maybe someone who is better versed than me in Christian dogma could clarify things, but is it really Jesus' hope that we'll all act like amoral heretics then just make the bad stuff disappear from our permanent record by phoning in a faux apology? If that's the case, then Christianity is the bestest religion ever!
