Of Johny Bravo and the like...

These past couple of days have been torture. Zuriel is most annoying. He's reached a new level of idiocy and tactlessness. Not to mention a new hobby he has for pointing out every chic that is supposedly "checking him out." Ugh.

I just don't know where he gets the energy to beef himself up so much. You know, initially I though it was because he was insecure. But now, I thinks it's because he genuinely believes that girls "dig" that. He thinks he has us ladies all figured out. Well, in my opinion he wouldn't know what pleases a girl if it were a snake and bit him! Ugh.

He was telling me the other day about his girlfriend, his asian girlfriend, and how she was voted the hottest asian on campus at southwestern and how all the guys give him dirty looks because he was able to snatch her up and they weren't. I mean, he actually said something like this, "I'm so good looking, that the other guys can't admit it. Guys cannot admit if someone is more good-looking than them." And then he says he likes to slip his number here and there just to see if the girls will call him. Not that he's going to go out with them, but he just likes to know that he can...you know, to satiate his ego.

He tries to educate me on how men think and fuction. He tells me they are all dogs, whether they claim to be Christian or not. ha. I know. Anyways, it reminded me of what my dearest cousin Debbie told me one afternoon over spring break vacation, "Don't ever say, 'oh, no, not my boyfriend, he's different, he's Christian.' Yeah, right! You better believe they're Christian and they like lots of Christian-sex!" So back to the Johny Bravo character...

Zuriel actually knows my cousin Debbie. We are all from the Valley, so we all grew up together in those crucial toddler years to ensure a lifetime of connection between our parents. He's kinda like my cousin too. Infact, Zuriel's mom insists we call her Tia (Aunt), although there is no relation through blood or marriage. My mom and his mom are best friends from Bible College in Edinburg. Over the years, Zuriel's mom tried three times to have a little girl, but God gave her all boys. As a result, she told my mother that she insists I call her Tia so that I can be the little girl she never had. Bless her heart. We put up with Zuriel just for her and nothing else. She's such a sweetheart...I don't know why Zuriel came out all backwards.
