Rock Bottom...

Tonight I could teach my class cuz I have this dumb respiratory infection... bleech! I soooo would have rather been teaching. Well, got to spend time with the fam, which was pleasant... but, we spent the evening watching a crap reality show called "Trading Spouses." All I can say about this show is Damn. If you haven't seen this show, the premise is to take the mom or dad from one family and swap them with one another. This episode, a woman from the upper crust of society was traded for a woman from the bottoms. Mannnnn, talk about perpetuating stereotypes. I felt like I was watching "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner" millennium style. What really, really, really sucked about this show was how they pushed around the grandma on this show. This woman is 72 years old, and the upper crust mom and the dad "let" her cook and clean house. What the hell? I swear I do not understand how society functions today. Maybe it's because I was raised old school, but people are so lazy and sorry today it's not funny. They forget the value of a dollar, as well as lack the concept of what a work ethic is and how important it is to have this quality. Nothing is going to be handed to you on a plate, (well, in some instances it is but I'll save this discussion for another day) so you better bust your ass and do what you gotta do. Mucho props to Nana for holding it down for her family, but damn give the lady a break!
