So here’s the thing,
People have parameters for everything… and its pretty ok…
for eg, you are six foot tall and so every 5foot bed according to you is
crappy… you are a vegetarian and people who eat meat are flesh eating monsters…
yeah ok … you are a stuck up Tambram (tamilian brahmin), and every one with a
tattoo is probably the western devil (and of course you didn’t just get your
daughter married to a gay guy!!! ) I get it…
God knows I have my parameters… parameters that if I didn’t
have, I would have been happier… like people being cynical cannot be my
friends… it annoys me… I hate being annoyed with friends… people who are rude
to their staff fit into my parameter of an asshole. But I don’t have screwed up issues… atleast I
don’t think so… ok probably my weight issue… but other than that I guess I
don’t judge people that much.
Why I am saying all this gibberish is because I don’t know
how to begin about this thing that has annoyed me beyond compare.
What is with judging women based on what time they wake up
in the morning?
For the longest time in my life, I have been haunted and
crucified at the altar of women who would wake up early…
The other day, for the n’th time my clothes that had just
come from the laundry had been completely destroyed…now I have a staff of four
at home at least 6 times I have brought to their attention what they wash
coloured clothes with white or light ones which is why the light/white ones get
discolored…
So I tell the man… “see they just don’t listen I have told
them a million times shown them how to do it a million times yet they don’t
take care … they’ve ruined my clothes!!! ”
The man replies with immense fake empathy, “maybe you need
to train them better… may be they don’t know how to do it…”
So I say that its rubbish cause they wash their own clothes
too and their clothes r never spoilt.
They are just being plain careless…
So he says unbelievably with more fake empathy than last
time, “of course, they are acting smart cause they think big deal, who’s who
has the time to keep a check on them”
Then I say, “how come your clothes never get spoilt?”
Incredibly, he says , “you see, I’m vigilant, I wake up
early in the morning” !!!
Seriously, how on earth has that got to do with any thing
man???
I wake up late but that’s about how different I am from
other women! Its not like I lie drunk all day, not knowing who’s doing what… I
manage the staff and the house just like anyone else… better actually…
Yeah so I don’t wake up in the morning to make breakfast …
but why the hell do I need to ? I have a so called cook whom I am paying money
to do that for me…
Even if I do get up at 6 in the morning, take a bath, what
do I do after that?
Watch tv? There’s depression on tv early morning! Read the
news paper, that’s even worse…
Forget about me, just generally, women are judged as
householders based on what time they wake up…
That’s just stupid …
Yeah sure its healthier to wake up early… of course I am
trying to turn towards the healthier lifestyle, but I don’t like being told
that the reason why people aren’t doing their job right cause I don’t wake up
early in the morning… that the reason why I disagree with people so much is
because I’m not a morning person. That you are tolerating me for my “late
mornings” and that I should be grateful
and accept that this itself is a valid
reason for someone to patronise me and look down upon me… that’s just wrong…
What time I wake up is my business… its time everyone woke
up to that!
