Delusion is a disease

I found a Dr. Pepper in the bottom of my desk drawer yesterday. I just opened my drawer and there it was. So I drank it. I feel this doesn't count as cheating on my no Dr. Pepper kick since I didn't actively seek it out. In a way, it sort of sought me out if you really think about it.

For that matter, I like to think that just the fact that the can was in the drawer was a sign that I was meant to drink it. Or maybe I've just been watching too much Big Brother lately. One of the girls on that show takes everything as a sign. And she cries a lot. My favorite though has to be that she thinks she should be on America's Next Top Model. My friend and I were discussing that just the other day. We can't decide if Amber's deluded or if she's just never seen America's Next Top Model. Maybe she doesn't understand the criteria to get on that show. Waif thin and stunning being the two primary considerations. It doesn't hurt to be overly dramatic too but I figure Amber's got that covered with all the crying. But the waif thin and stunning not so much.

But then another girl on the show, Jameka, went and totally agreed with her. I thought maybe Jameka was just being nice. You know how your friend says, I need to win the lottery. And then you say, You should buy a ticket. You could win. But what you really mean is, Good luck. Because you don't honestly think she'll win. Because, reality check, as if. But you still want to be positive and encouraging.

See, I thought maybe Jameka was doing that. Except then she went on about how she could see Amber on the cover of magazines and starting a whole modeling career. Um. Yeah. When did "deluded" become a contagious disease?

I'm not saying chick's ugly or anything. She's a cute average looking, average sized girl. But she's not America's Next Top Model material. Neither am I. You don't see me all broken up in a corner about it. It happens. But what's up her so called friend puffing her ego up all out of proportion. Friends don't let friends go down to the America's Next Top Model tryouts to get ripped to shreds in a bikini.
