They Use Astroturf Rather than Grass

You know, I've always wondered why people get so jealous of others when those "others" are in good relationships, or relationships period. The grass always seems greener on the other side, yes?


But she always gets the guy.

He always has a good-looking chick.
Her man treats her so well; mine treats me like s*&^.
Women flock to him.
What does she have that I don't?

I believe that the grass over there is typically brown and dead, but that they put Astroturf over it to provide an otherwise facade. From a distance, it looks like the real deal, but when you get right up on it, it's clear that it's just short, green, woven pieces of shredded plastic.

If we tend to our own yards (read: OURSELVES) first, cultivate our grass and make sure it really is actual green, pretty, Ty Pennington-approved grass, then we will attract mates who are living a likewise existence. The Jones' spend a lot of money making that Astroturf look authentic. In this tough economy, consider going the much less-expensive, all natural route. You'll find it's easier on your wallet and your sanity.
