Not only is all the money spent on that bling wasteful, but I find the gold teeth and huge rings very unattractive.<BR/><BR/>And, of course, since all the rappers are looking to impress me, specifically, it's important they should know this.<BR/><BR/>On the subject of nouveau riche--many years ago, Tom and I were driving through Paradise Valley (where a lot of ball players and generally rich people live in their huge houses with solid gold faucets) in his old '82 Chevy van. I made the joke that it was very obvious we were just passing through, and Tom said that the van didn't mean anything, that maybe we were old money like in New England. <BR/><BR/>I didn't understand till the first time we went to the Cape--rarely will you see some flashy, brand new under lease car (and if you do, it likely belongs to a tourist). The families with money are much more likely to drive old, salt-pitted, rusty wheel well Subarus.Beccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01573195570934029465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23166489.post-1160272387453827292006-10-07T20:53:00.000-05:002006-10-07T20:53:00.000-05:00Okay, if they need so bad to pay the rent, why don...Okay, if they need so bad to pay the rent, why don't they pry the diamonds (yes, folks, REAL diamonds) they had attached to their teeth and sell THOSE for rent money. I mean, talk about your conspicuous consumption! It's the nouveaux riches all over again. They have so much money they don't exhibit any real taste in spending it, just the desire to have "bling" to flaunt in front of everyone else. Okay, I'll step off my soap box now.<BR/><BR/>As for cartwheels, I guess I'll keep doing them so long as I'm limber enough...<BR/><BR/>Big hugs, and thanks to you all for making me feel better about the whole 30-thing!Jenn-Jenn, the Mother Henhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01850119465505660438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23166489.post-1160271023959841742006-10-07T20:30:00.000-05:002006-10-07T20:30:00.000-05:00Don't diss the song--they were just trying to make...Don't diss the song--they were just trying to make money for the rent.

I just wanted to tell you first of all that I really enjoy your blog and also that I really, really freaked out before I turned 30. 29 was an AWFUL year! but a few months into the whole 30 thing, I realized I was still me and nothing had changed. That's when I found out for real that your age is really just how you feel inside. (Not to be corny). So, I totally sympathize, but just hang in there!! It will get better!Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16632245438511998562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23166489.post-1159922977725261032006-10-03T19:49:00.000-05:002006-10-03T19:49:00.000-05:00Okay, is PIMPYYP an acronym for something, like Ra...Okay, is PIMPYYP an acronym for something, like Rao Fly Do?
