The Bitch Gene

Monday 1st May 2011

This post has absolutely nothing to do with my weight loss journey or anything like this but I have had one of those weeks where you really start to think about what's important and sift out all the crap.  It's like cleaning the house in your mind.

I am the type of person who never stops thinking.  I have things playing around in my mind all the time, which can get a little tiring sometimes but it also explains why I'm always a little bit hyper!

The thing that made me laugh this time was how similar my close friends and I are and the way we interact.  My closest friends and family are the ones I insult the most.  Isn't it funny that we will call our best friends a scrubber or a bitch or some other term of endearment yet we are so damn polite to everyone that we don't know as well or have yet to form that comfort with.  I will find myself running to help a stranger if they have fallen over but will be in fits of laughter if it's my friend (as long as they aren't hurt of course!).

Although we talk to each other about being scrubbers and things like that I also know that my closest friends are totally honest with me and won't hesitate to let me know if I'm being a drama queen or totally unreasonable and tell me to suck it up and vice versa. 

I also have to laugh at the fact that my hubby and his mates and other males that I know don't seem to have the drama that us women seems to find us sometimes.  If there is a problem they're over it quick and onto the next thing.  When hubby comes home and I fill him in on my day and all he can do is roll his eyes some days.  They just don't get it do they!  This is why I think they are born without the dreaded bitch gene which seems to generate this drama.  But on the plus side they are also born without the awesome shopping gene so it's not luck we get all the crap stuff!  lol

So to my scrubber mates, I may not hug you or tell you what a great friend you are but don't hold your breath waiting for me to, it's just not in my bitch gene!  lol
