However...my brother in law Rob will be here this weekend. So I could end up vlogging something later. :)
The other day I told you about one of my favorite shows. Mad Men. If you haven't caught this yet..you MUST. Over the summer I watched the first two seasons on DVD (available from Netflix and iTunes) and I was addicted. I love Betty Draper and I've always thought she and I were very much alike...expect for the the drinking and smoking while pregnant and humping a stranger in a bar. So I was delighted when this quiz said I was Betty. And I completely agree with the explanation, people are constantly taking advantage of my kindness and I'm sick of it.
You Are Betty
You are a perfectly polished and put together woman. You mind your manners and always act appropriately. You are the type of woman who makes an ideal wife and mother. You are able to be completely selfless.
The downside to your kindness is that people sometimes take advantage of you. You don't stand up for yourself enough. You are as sweet as you seem, but there's only so much one woman can take before she snaps.
Oh I've never seen Mad Men so I can't relate. But I am so sorry that you are so stressed... When will you know something?
ReplyDeleteHey Connie,
ReplyDeleteI am kind too. I sometimes gets me in trouble, but I love that about myself and feel that it a gift from God so I would not trade it for anything! You just have to manage it so people don't railroad you. What is going on with your husband's job? I hope all is well. I will keep you and you family in my prayers. Stay Sweet girl! :o)
I am a Betty too, just took the quiz. Only I don't think I am that nice, lol.
ReplyDeleteI hope the job situation works out in your favor.
I have heard lots of good things about that show and always forget to watch it...what night of the week is it on?
ReplyDeleteI am Betty too! I am currently on Season 2, disk 3. It is the BEST!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry you are having so much stress right now! I wish there was something I could do to help.
((hugs))
Jen
I got Betty too! I just started watching season 3 on On Demand, but I haven't watched 1 & 2 yet. Hang in there!!
ReplyDeleteI have no clue what mad men is but I am a Joan and I heart this description :
ReplyDeleteYou are sexy, sassy, and smarter than people realize. You know how to work a situation to your benefit.
You are constantly getting underestimated, especially at work. That's okay, because you always get the last laugh.
You are one tough cookie. You will do what it takes to survive, and you have the men of the world wrapped around your little finger.
You put on a brave face, and no one really knows the true you. You're a lot more complicated than you seem.
Hang in there Connie & try not to let the stress get to you! Matt LOVES Mad Men. I don't share his fondness b/c I find it a bit dark & I like shows that make me laugh - I need that at the end of the day! Good luck with the coupons, they'll come in handy either way :)
ReplyDeleteAnd that is an awesome dress. Sometimes I wish we still wore clothes like those. Weird huh?
ReplyDeleteI knew there was a reason we got along so much... I'm Betty, too.. You know some of the reasons I got WALKED all over!
ReplyDeleteYou know I'm praying for you every day!!
And Jennifer, I don't think your weird... I LOVE those clothes and wish we still wore them, too.
