Ever had the feeling that the world was against you? That you were one big joke? Or more specifically, one big cosmic joke? Yep. Today was my day for coincidence to come biting me in the ass. My day started out as harmless as days go. I made a little something for breakfast, a nice steamy cup of coffee and sidled down on the couch to watch some good old television. Gilmore Girls was on and I decided to watch it seeing that it had been years since I'd watched the series. Not having kept up with the developments in the storyline I was a little lost as Rory had some new friends and one of them, this Korean girl (I forget her name~sorry) was getting married. Frankly, they seemed pretty young to be married and the Korean girl's stiff, uptight mother was on the same wavelength as I was. She walks into the bridal room, nods Rory out and turns to face her daughter with an air of impatience and rigidity. Pulling up a chair for her daughter and herself she sits down and shushes her daughter silent as she goes on to tell her that she has obligations to her husband as a wife. Tonight for the first time she will have to do unspeakable things. She will have to "do it". All this occurs as her daughter unsuccessfully tries to interrupt her (possibly to tell her distressed mother that they had already "done it") The mother however, silences her and goes on to say that she has to"do it" possibly tonight to satisfy her husband and if she was as lucky as her (the mother) she would only have to do it once! I swear coffee left my mouth in the most unpleasant manner as I choked down on the remaining bit in my mouth. Tearing up as the coffee had shot to my brain, all I could think about was WHAT?! This is UNREAL! Joke of my life on Gilmore Girls... Laughing out loud in an empty house till tears streamed down my face as I wiped the droplets of coffee off the (ironically) coffee table, I couldn't help wondering if God was trying to send me a message of some kind. If He was, what the heck is it??
A little later in the afternoon, one of my favorite TV classics, The Nanny was on. Having been an avid Nanny fan, I'd caught most of the episodes and was absolutely delighted that the episode on TV today was one I had not caught yet. Somewhere through the show I watched as Fran ushered Maxwell into the kitchen gushing at how cute her parents were and all that. And somehow the conversation stopped at how its weird to imagine people having sex and her going on to say that she was glad her parents never did. I stopped dead in my tracks all of a sudden and the scene from Gilmore Girls flashed before my eyes. Really? Two in a row? For some inexplicably absurd reason, one question entered my mind. Was my daughter (or son) going to think that of me and my husband one day?? And as that question materialized, I looked up at the ceiling and glared. Yeah, God above the ceiling, thats for you.
And of course, as the saying goes, three times a charm. As I was channel surfing (nothing else to watch) I came upon Sex and the City. Never having watched the show before as I found it too sexually explicit (more than I can stomach anyway) I decided to just grit my teeth and watch the remaining 3 minutes on it (beats watching commercials while waiting for Friends to start) Four women were sitting at a table bantering about...what else, sex. And this red haired woman, (Miranda I think) goes on to ask why its so hard for a man to please a woman sexually. The other older woman, Samantha answers that its because they're men (whatever the heck thats supposed to mean) Then they banter on about some statistics on the frequency of people having sex and how the age of people who are sexually active is decreasing in number... And just as I was paying less and less attention (sex isn't my favorite topic of discussion) I hear one of them pipe "Well, if you hit you're twenties and don't know what an orgasm feels like, honey, something ain't right with you." Ouch. I felt like hurling a brick at this woman! Just cause you can't seem to keep your pants on doesn't make others a walking plank!!! We have feelings too! Maybe we don't know what an orgasm is like (or practically speaking, what is is) but we know how to keep our pants on and others OUT of it! As I was boiling and simmering over, a list of swear words ran through my mind. But of course, in a while, I calmed down and skated over the issue lightly. Call me paranoid but I have this nagging inkling at the back of my head that God's trying to mess with my head again! I had a thought of throwing a brick up at him only to realize (stupidly) that the same brick ain't gonna reach him but definitely will smash my head on its way down. Hmm... perhaps there's another lesson in that one too...
