It’s Friday and I have awesome box seats at the Yankee’s game tonight so I’m going to keep this light.
First of all, if you’re a Mets fan (.5% of the population), I apologize. We’re all Yankee’s fans at my house. Get over it.
You know, while I’m on the subject…can we just talk about Derek Jeter? Everytime that man is at bat I sit straight up in my seat. Mmmm.

Jeter has been linked with a bunch of hot ladies. In fact, you’re more likely to find articles on his love life than his stats if you google him. Ladies like Jordana Brewster, Lara Dutta, Vanessa Minnillo, Jessica Alba and, of course, Mariah Carey. There were also rumors of Scarlett Johannson. You know though, I don’t know very many women who would turn down Jeter. I have Jeter as my male version of the Jolie Clause, you know, the clause that excuses cheating in a relationship as long as it’s with someone like Angelina Jolie.
So last night I was looking around the internet for pictures of Jeter (you know, while I was in bed with my laptop with the lights off) and I came across a picture of him on the beach with some random chicks. This picture cracks me up. Totally unflattering for the girls and Jeter looks bored out of his mind. The funny thing though is he probably invited those ladies back to his boat, cause they’re not half-bad and his friends need sum sumthin too. It’s at that point that I begin to feel bad for the boyfriends of the ladies who invoke the Jeter Clause cause you know that there’s no guarantee that if she gets on Jeter’s boat she’s gonna get on Jeter. Chances are more likely that one of his wingmen (A Rod?) is gonna take advantage of the situation. Then you get the phone call from her on the boat…..




For the sake of timing, we’ll skirt over her inability to teach and how she’s likely perpetuating all that is so very wrong with this country today. Let’s just stick with her and her husband. This alone lead to an epiphany of sorts for my friend and I. Need more background? Her husband is a state trooper (read: authority, rough, tough, healthy), yet she clearly holds all of the authority in the household. The husband and children (also men) do all the cleaning, and she spends her days at work spending all her (and his) money on online QVC. Further, she appears to have no nurturing ablitities, tendencies to be outgoing or kind, or otherwise redeeming qualities about her. Yet she’s constantly reminding her husband that she can pull the “divorce” card to further enforce her demands at any moment. Not surprisingly, her children seem to have no social lives and much of what the public knows about them is how their schedules revolve around the toilet and fast-food dinners.
So Lisa and I can’t help but wonder: how did a woman like this manage to score a man like that? In other words, we’d all love a man that could occasionally refrain from being an asshole and just respect us a bit. You know, even if we are being slightly irrational at the time. We’d also love it for a man to share in some household chores, right? Maybe let us do a little shopping? Eat Taco Bell without a disapproving frown?
Our bottom line, our final question for query was this: Is it true that the only way to get a man with a higher frequency of kindness and compassion is to become an unruly bitch, break his spine, and sit back and start getting fat? Is it true that the only way to get the studly dreamboat that will always make you feel safe and protected, is to deal with his tendency to be a complete asshole? In the end, Lisa and I definitively stated that we’d much prefer the occassional ass to the occassional man.
Although I’ve never been a sucker for pain, unless of course the pain is caused by a sharp smack against my bare buttocks in the throws of passion – hmmm, where was I? Right. This fat, ugly mass of a thing that has taken over what used to be my dainty lickable foot) A word advice: Do not throw the ole pigskin around in your backyard when your backyard is in fact a desecrated forest covered in abandoned fox holes.
Betty doesn’t do helpless. I get frustrated that I can’t move quickly on crutches. Frustrated that I have to go up and down stairs on my ass like some pathetic child. Frustrated that I can’t take a shower by myself. No. That part actually isn’t so bad… 
Ok, ok…don’t get me wrong. I love being a woman. I especially love my vageegee, my cookie, my precious lady-stuff. It serves me well. But for some reason my body has decided that this month my gina will be the bane of my existence and cause me to suffer the worst case of PMS known to man. I kid you not. I have been PMSing for at least 2 weeks with no end in sight.
and crying into the keyboard while telling myself, “You’re fat and ugly and your readers hate you.” Well, I hate you too. I hate you so much. It’s your fault I’m having all this pain. Someone out there must’ve concocted a voodoo doll in my image and is currently shoving horse needles into my abdomen. I will find you and when I do I will bite your head off and chew it up into little tiny pieces then spit it out and glue it back together and sew it onto your ass with those horse needles, you fucking bastard.
