So Adam and I were flipping through channels last night searching for something good to watch on TV (which by the way has become a near impossible task with all the garbage they call programming these days) and we came across the Bachelor...my most hated show. You're probably wondering why I hate this show...or maybe you're not because you've seen it with your own two eyes. Well, let me explain...
If you've been living under a rock and aren't aware of the premise of the show, it is basically to select about 25 women and put them in a house together. These ladies are all there to try to "win" the heart of one man who goes on dates with most of them, sometimes up to 6 of them at a time. And oftentimes it's not just dates, he'll make out with multiple of them (usually not on the same date) and who knows what they do off camera. It's completely disgusting to me. In what real life scenario would any woman subject herself to competing with 3-25 women to "win" the heart of one man.
I've always been of the mind that if a man is not interested enough in me to be dating me only then he's not worth my time. If he can't respect me that much I don't need that. It's already hard enough for women to earn respect in this society and to seek out a companion amid the competition that exists in every day life. Why intentionally subject yourself to more of the same over just one lousy guy...who you don't even know if you'll like!
Complete idiocracy if you ask me. I lose respect for women who would put themselves in that place. Yuck!

Hello buttercups. It has been a while, hasn't it? My apologies...life has really taken off with me, but I want to get back into posting. I have two things burning on my mind now, but I'll keep them in separate posts. This one is mostly about my crocheting.
I used to crochet when I was younger...I remember my first project was a lime green elephant that I don't think I ever finished. But when I moved to the big city three years ago I needed some stress releif and my roommate happened to have a boatload of crochet hooks and patterns that she inherited from her grandmother. She let me have free reign over them and thus came my first afgan. I know that might sound boring and old lady, but it's a sweet blue camo blanket that is nice and warm. You'd like it if you saw it.
But now, I've ventured into all sorts of new stitches and patterns including a blood red doily, Conway's scarf, and an Alphabet Baby Blanket (that I've made twice). Most of which have some geeky twist, like they are derived from a mathematical formula, they just look mathematically complex, or they look like wavelengths.
All this to say that I opened a shop on Etsy (an online store that allows members to sell their handmade goods) to sell my work. Please check it out at geekchicfashion.etsy.com. If you see something you like or something that you would like custmized, do let me know. I love to crochet and am pretty fast at it. I will post some of my creations here later.
Happy Shopping!
