Marcia Syndrome... Do you have it?


Okay, how many of you remember the 70's TV show the Brady Bunch? Everyone knows that show. Well, for those of you who don't know the show(losers) allow me to give you a brief over view. It's about these two people (a man and a woman) who both happen to have three children...she has 3 girls and he has three boys. They meet, get married and the rest is TV history which you can find on TVland or some cable network today.

Well, let's talk about the three daughters for a moment. There's Cindy the youngest and most forgettable child in the whole dang show...(except for the time she had that lisp and the kids were teasing her at school, and peter almost caught a beat down at her expense...now that was funny). There's Marcia the oldest and prettiest and most popular of the three. (She wasn't all that pretty when she got hit in the face with that football that time was she?) Then there's Jan the middle child who is always living in the shadow of her older sister. (Remember the time she tried out for the cheerleading team, and came up with that sucky cheer? she should have stuck to spelling bees....)

Jan was always trying to "out do" Marsha in one way or another, but she would fail everytime. I mean, Marcia was the oldest...she was the prettiest...she was popular at school...she was always winning something, and being invited somewhere. Poor Jan didn't stand a chance. Well, needless to say Jan and Marcia are the reason for my blog ladies and gentlemen. Everytime Marcia would come home with something new and "groovy" to announce, and all the attention would shift directly on her. What would you hear Jan shouting and running to her room, never to emerge until she thought of another way to be better then her "evil" sister....that's right..."Marcia!, Marcia!, Marcia!"

I am hear to announce that I to have fallen victim to what we in my household call "Marcia Syndrome" Yep, I Dee-Dee Roby have taken leave of my senses and caught this dreaded disease. Okay, here it is...She (Mia Goodrum) has the job I want....the kind of home I want...the car I want( well I want a Beetle, and she a Passat) and she is getting married this fall(in Las Vegas no less) Ooooooh! right now I can't stand her....all though I am very much happy for her, and I wish her all the best....really I do. But I still have to admitt it out loud, hey I'm just being honest here! So with a high pitched voice and my arms wavying in the air above my head, as I head off to my room; where I will not emerge until I have prayed this "Marcia Syndrome" aka "Jealous Spirit" out of my system... I shall scream...Mia! Mia! Mia!

*Notice how I only mentioned Cindy's name once during my whole story. See told you she was the forgotten child (wink)

Okay so while me and a few of my co~workers were in the breakroom early this morning, I began to tell them about this board game I bought. In this game there is a part where you have to tell the truth about whatever the next player ask you...it's sort of like "Truth or Dare"... but with a twist...and it's for grown folks...okayyyyy! Well One of the cards you can play is called "Lunch with the girls!" and it has several different open~ended questions on it. For instance one card might say: How do you... and then you have to fill in the blank...with whatever comes to your mind first, but it has to be something real true and honest. Well we played a bit of it during our break and let me tell you...them folks I work with are NASTY YA'LL! *LOL* They had me rolling...but it was all in good fun. I decided to do one and post it. Now I won't tag anyone to do one of their own, but I will encourage you to. It's a fun way of revealing just a little bi...

Okay so like the day before Thanksgiving my girl Belle (we call her that cause she loves to read books like Belle from Beauty and the Beast...plus she sings everything!) Anyway, she called me and told me she was going to her company's Pre~Thanksgiving party and she needed to borrow some really trendy shoes to complete the outfit wearing. Well this is how she said it ..."Danni, can I use a pair of your shoes to go with these new jeans I'm wearing to my jobs party tonight?" No class at all folks! Anyway, at first I was like (in the back of my mind) Hell Naw you can't use a pair of my shoes! Are you crazy? But then I sorta felt sorry for her and her new pair of jeans...I mean they deserve to be the hit of the party right? And what way to do that then with a fabulous pair of shoes. So I reluctantly said yes and asked her to describe her outfit to me so that I could pick just the right pair. She told me she was wearing this Seafoam green and Pink silk blouse and of co...
