No I'm not insulting you kids, it's the kicker line of my new favorite song.
Ever have one of those angry sex songs that really hits the mark on what you are feeling at a given time? Well this is mine right now. A little context for you on what has brought about this angry sex song feeling. As some of you know, I recently fired my Fireman. Yes, I know, who would have ever seen this one coming??? Long story short, the ROI just was not happening for me any more. It was supposed to be fun, easy, and good. No Strings Attached. Cum and go. Nothing less, nothing more.
Lately, for a number of reasons, it was more effort than reward. Long drawn out text fights, excuses, and not to mention his girlfriend was taking up a lot of my time. I was having boyfriend-caliber fights without the benefit of said boyfriend. That was not the program I signed on for, kids! So as much as it pained me to do it, I fired him on Saturday night. No severance benefits will be provided. It did make for a rather inspired spot of poetry though, if you haven't already done so, check out Burn Me Down over at Studio30 Plus.
Now I know why most companies have security in the room when the firing occurs at a place of employment. The boy was not happy. Is not happy still. And continues to tell me just such a thing via text/IM/email etc. This is the hazard of hooking up in the digital age I guess. No more screening your calls. Eventually he will be at the "same place" at the same time. Awkward.
I have been tempted to reinstate his services but so far, I have resisted. We will see how long that lasts. I know myself well enough to know I am going to continue to be tempted. I'm currently interviewing his replacement(s) and am hoping that goes favorably. You know I will keep you kids posted.
In the meantime, enjoy this little gem of an angry sex song. Pretty much sums up my whole attitude on the Fireman situation at the current moment. I'm including a few stanzas of the lyrics for you,, kind of says it all but it's much cooler when you get to rock out too. The chorus is the kicker in this situation.
D.R.U.G.S. - Sex Life Video
Desperation, before I hit the ground,
Reaching out for something.
We've lost it all before
And we still want something more.
We want it all!
Can't make you shake the way that I do.
Can't make you love,
The way that you're supposed to,
And when you come crawling back,
You'll see we can't change the past.
For the first time
I see you for who you really are.
If you had a sex life, a sex life
Would you even worry about mine?
When your bed is empty
If you had a sex life, a sex life
Would you even worry about mine?
When your bed is empty
You're a waste of time!
[ Lyrics from: http://www.m/lyrics/d/drugs/sex_life.html ]
This love was made to hate what you are.
You sold yourself and can't come back, you're too far.
And when you turn you around,
You see yourself on the ground.
And for the first time
No one cares just who you really are.
If you had a sex life, a sex life
Would you even worry about mine?
When your bed is empty
If you had a sex life, a sex life
Would you even worry about mine?
When your bed is empty
You're a waste of time!
