Nightly wrap-up…

By SheelaR

Working from bed tonight.  I’m getting behind with my article, which is due in 6 weeks.  I don’t know how I’m going to do it. I’ve got so much on my plate.  It doesn’t help that I’ll be moving in two weeks.  I’m always taking on more than I can handle.  It’s the overachiever in me. Anyhow…

It was actually a pretty laid-back work day.  The worst part of it was having to fight through a significant amount of traffic to get home this evening, it’s adding to my stress.  Road construction is everywhere. However, all was well after
I finally got home, because mom came over and made me dinner and then served me in bed.
Speaking of bed…
I’m still here working and watching TV. The new season of ‘Black Ink Crew’ premiers tonight…another guilty pleasure.  I have a love hate relationship with reality TV.  I hate the stereotypes and contrived story-lines, but I can’t stop watching.
There are definitely story-lines that I can relate to.  For example… The Chad & Evelyn story of domestic violence.  I feel really bad about Evelyn on ‘Basketball Wives’ and her encounter with domestic violence, but how ironic it that she finds herself in this situation?
It appears to me that Evelyn has failed to realize is that domestic isn’t just about a male on female abuse.  All the fighting that occurred on the previous seasons of ‘Basketball Wives,’ is also domestic violence and it is equally unacceptable. I can only hope that she does get it and isn’t just crying crocodile tears for her own plight, but for all the women and children who are also victims of domestic violence at the hands of people like herself and Chad Ochocinco.
I guess I’ll get back to working on my article and psychoanalyzing reality TV.
