Not Exactly "Pretty Woman" Story Wise, Now Is It?

But it still has a very happy ending .. well, not in that sense .. or maybe it does? What do you think?


Another bimbo caption? Yes, indeed! Though this one has some other elements contained within that are a smidgen different than the usual plot lines. Basically, it's almost a conversation I had with a best friend a number of years ago, where we noted that it often seems like people that aren't the smartest people .. tend to seem much happier than those who know what is going on.

Maybe it's because the mind is always thinking, and when you can't shut it off, it goes into weird places, and can cause anxiety. I have no way of knowing if any of that is true, but I don't want to research it, as that might make my anxiety rise, and I'd prefer not to do that. It possibly wanders into the assumptions I've heard that the more creative/perceptive a person is, the more likely that they'll have issues with addiction or problems with drugs or alcohol.

But let's not get too far down that rabbit hole, because another precept in the caption deals with responsibility and the pressures it provides. The "weight of the world" that wears heavily upon those who wield that power. I'd love to be rich, but even more, I'd love to be comfortable .. and I wonder how many people can figure out the balance between them. How much money, and responsibility, is enough? In the grand scheme of things, no one ever thinks they are wealthy. Just ask those who pay taxes! I mean, I know people that think they are "middle class" and own 2 large houses, along with rental properties, take cruises every year, and never worry about the cost of anything .. and they say, "it's not fair that they heavily tax us working people! Of course they should tax those .. who make more than I do!" While I look at them and think, "You are exactly the person that should be taxed more! I am 1 month of unemployment away from living in my car!"

And are rich/wealthy kinkier than the average person? Well, they have more resources to do whatever it takes to fulfill those kinks, so perhaps they are? It's certainly easier to roleplay, and books like 50 Shades of Gray are much better fantasies when there is an element of power play involved, and you can procure whatever tools are needed to achieve your kicks. One of my friends like to call herself, "the frugal fetishist," as she's made kinky toys out of actual toys, made harnesses from hardware store shopping trips and visits to Michaels and Hobby Lobby .. all because they are much more expensive when spending retail. Thrift stores have to do when you want to dress up in a prom or wedding dress, and you'd rather do that then eat Ramen for the next month if you buy the same outfit at David's Bridal!

So what was my point in all this? I really don't know, and I'm starting to ramble, so if you know where I was going in this discussion, please let me know down in the comment section!


It's a blog exclusive too, so feel free to talk about the actual caption too!
