Look What You Made Me Do

"Once is a coincidence and twice is suspicious. Three times means I know what you've done and will adjust my behaviour accordingly. You should probably do the same." 

There are few things that make my skin crawl as much as being lied to, especially in regards to the value of trust and the expectation of privacy. I lean towards giving people the benefit of the doubt and a polite demeanor has often been mistaken for blind stupidity. In reality, that wasn't far off. Too many times I've allowed  myself to be a doormat and not knowing when to draw the line has cost me and people around me dearly in the past. Younger me had harsh lessons to learn...about keeping emotions in check, patience, and quietly gathering receipts. Who knew KimmyK could teach this old gal valuable lessons? Say what you want about her (and I have) but that girl is dumb like a fox. 

Was there any chewier gossip than the Kardashian-Swift-ThatAsshole drama a few years back? Two brilliant business women getting messy in public over some goof; reputations at stake, fans on all sides somehow raising their fist in the air while pointing both hands in different directions, and snakes on the attack. There wasn't even sex involved! The ghosts of Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Debbie Reynolds and Elizabeth Taylor must have made a party out of watching it unfold. Imagine them fabulously dressed, tossing back their drinks and throwing their perfectly-coiffed heads back in laughter at how absurd it all is. That is a movie I would pay to watch. Instead of old Hollywood glamour, we have reality tabloid stars and music borne from the depths of artist's souls. Which leads me to the Song of the Week - 2Oct22. Enjoy!
