I have a good place to put that microphone.....

So I started with Guitar Hero and was finally able to say that I was starting to get kinda good. I was finally starting to feel confidant in my rock abilities. My son was no longer glaring at me with disdain. I was feelin' fine.

Then my man and I went to his friends house on Saturday night. Mostly to set off illegal fireworks. But we ended up playing Rock Band. What the fuck?! Can someone please explain why they would inflict more embarrassment on people? They've added drums AND vocal?!? That's just cruel and unusual punishment. And the worst part was his friends are GOOD. His one friend has beaten Guitar Hero and Rock Band on Expert and according to his girlfriend, "plays it all day every <expletive> day." So he has some serious skillz. His girlfriend wasn't bad either. On the guitar/bass or the drums. I sat there making fun of my man and laughing along, but secretly hating them all cuz they are more talented than I. And the worst? I'm pretty sure my man is gonna buy Rock Band. Even though his woman has been begging for WiiFit now for two friggin' months. (Have I gotten it yet? No. Nope. Nada! Will I? Yea, probably not.)

So fine. Whatever. My confidence shattered, ego bruised. Thought I was tough shit. I'm not. And scared to death cuz I know he will want me to play along with. Sucks. Sucks hard.
