if i were a rich man...

rich people have way too much fuckin' money on their hands.

i was looking at this steve mcqueen auction online yesterday. i can understand wanting to own something by your favourite celebrity. i can even understand paying a few grand for something cool. but someone paid $8500 for his credit card!

i got sent an invitation to a holt renfrew event. i have to post these discounts because the thought of spending that much money on clothes just bothers me.

sunday morning, it was raining here. my dog and i chose to spend the morning in bed watching tv. i ended up watching an episode of that david foster reality show. i just wanted to crawl into the tv and bitch slap both of his self centred greedy little stepsons. you ungrateful little bastards. why don't you try getting a real job and learning how real people live? and if they were my kids, i'd be so embarassed and ashamed i would never let a camera in my house. i would have kicked them to the curb years ago. at least the osbournes were funny. and i understand that much of reality tv is fake, but why would you want to portray yourself like that?

i just think of all the good one could do with money and i just look at the above and think, what a waste.

my mood right now is obviously bitter. this probably has to do with the fact that my new job search is not paying off so far. it looks like i will be taking a crappy retail job (there is nothing wrong with retail, it's just not where i want to be right now) to get out of my current situation and keep hoping for the best.

ok, i need to end on a more upbeat note. the other show i watched sunday was the gene simmons reality show. at least these people seem normal and not freaks. and shannon tweed is pretty cool. she told her weight on tv (150 lbs) which seems about right. and she was totally cool with it. and she kept complaining to this guy that was trying to style her that she wanted real clothes, not barbie clothes, for a real woman.

rant over.
