It takes something special to impress me about someone I don’t really know, if at all. It would take him or her to do something really special for me to fawn.
Some people are easy….
Forgive me in advance for fawning, but Michelle Obama is the coolest first lady ever. She clinched it for me this week by jumping double Dutch on the South Lawn as part of a “healthy kids fair.”
“Jumping double Dutch”. Are you fucking kidding?
I couldn’t imagine recent first ladies jumping a puddle on the sidewalk, let alone two ropes swinging at the same time in opposite directions. So, on behalf of New York City, the so-called double Dutch capital of the world (so much so that this year it became a varsity sport in the city’s schools), allow me to say: Well played.
Obviously The New York Times’ Mr. Charles M. Blow is sucking up for consideration once the next set of administration resignations begins in earnest. What else could possibly make a grown man get all giddy over a woman jumping rope?
Next up?
How about the White House Cakewalk?
SNL described this mentality best: Lowered expectations.
I apologize in advance for this:

Was she wearing a bra?
Mauser, on behalf of women everywhere let me say…
I was thinking the same danged thing!!! LOL
n.n., I worked with a social worker at the hospital who handled child abuse cases. She had the sweetest, sunniest disposition. I asked her how she managed that once and she replied, “Really low expectations.”
I can do double dutch. Does that mean I can be FLOTUS?? (That would be a trick as my husband isn’t an American citizen…. oh, wait, that’s right. No longer a requirement!)
She was wearing a bra AND her lovely belt .. here’s some hula hoop pics …

” “Jumping double Dutch”. Are you fucking kidding?”
you know what the funny part is? that was my knee-jerk reaction to that qoute – you fucking KIDDING me?! what?!
“Obviously The New York Times’ Mr. Charles M. Blow is sucking up for consideration once the next set of administration resignations begins in earnest.”
exactly
“What else could possibly make a grown man get all giddy over a woman jumping rope?”
exactly.
I think this also qualifies this guy has the “Suck-up of the day” or “kiss-ass of the day”
typos be damned..I meant “..this guy AS the..”
If Michelle made a porn the leftards would be talking about how cool it was, and how Michelle brought a new kind of class to the White House and the office of the First Lady. F’ing losers.
Mommy RN:
It’s amazing that even physically and mentally impaired individuals strive for more, despite their limitations. Everyone has an inherent dignity that yearns to be expressed. We are at our best when we are productive.
child abuse cases
Psychological damage is the greatest impairment of all. From personal experience, it helps to be a productive and contributing member of something greater than yourself. Furthermore, physical activity is extremely helpful to recovery, and especially contact with a natural environment. Even then, it is a matter of time before you are able to reconcile the issues. It does help when others have high expectations for your future. The key is to not force the recovery, which will inevitably induce a relapse, but to encourage it.
I am not a psychologist, so the above advice should be considered anecdotal.
You don’t have to be a psychologist to understand that words can kill, n.n
After all, that is what the bible says.
Your advice is very sound IMO.

It is always nice to know that you are not alone, and that others do have similar thoughts. Thanks.
