Second Job-arama
Rick is finally thinking of getting a second job during the slow season at work. I'm not as excited as I thought I'd be. The thought of him taking on a second job doesn't make me as content as I thought it would. Here I go again, getting exactly what I thought I wanted and not really wanting it at all. I should just stop wanting altogether! I just can't imagine him working at the Gap or the mall for the holiday season rush. For some reason I'd rather picture him driving a Fred Sanford truck moving parts back and forth for the neighborhood body shop. This is the image I have for him and I'm not sure why. Nothing about Rick makes him seem like the stereotypical Hispanic working-man; driving a delivery truck or landscaping a lawn. And why would I want to view him in this way? Have I become such a product of stereotypes that I'm losing the real-life image of the man that I love?
