Going back to our favorite Jen vs. our least favorite Jen…
I don’t really have a favorite Jen since most of the Jen versions are all “She’s crazy!” & snark-worthy, &, let’s be honest, that’s why I’m still along for the Jen-Journey.
But I do miss the house tours & getting ready for parties vlog & the mucking about-doing nothing but spending money & sorting stuff day in the life vlogs - plus, she seemed to enjoy life so much more back then. She was fun to watch.
My least favorite Jen is withholding Jen or morose Jen - that period right after Don & Tensleigh married & she went dark for a while &, when she came back, she was morose & depressed staring into lonely fires in lonely campsites & she got so particular & defensive about what she was sharing… and what fun is there in that?!
As I was watching this latest “tour of her rumpus adventure rig,” I did find myself thinking that the Jen we’re seeing now is probably closest to the real Jen.
The way she’s dressing now is similar to how she’s dressed in any early pics of her & Don… very casual, sloppy-athletic wear.
And she’s always been happy when she’s alone by herself w/ her stuff all around her “organized” in various pouches & bins… books & bags & journals & back-up scissors & water bottles & bandaids & food & gear all stuffed in nooks & crannies w/ nothing actually organized but more hoarded.
She likes to buy things. She likes to buy back-up of those things. She likes to hoard things.
And she likes to be alone.
She’s never been very concerned w/ germs either.
Plus, she’s lazy.
Of course, she’s just eating bagged salad even though she has a stove & a kettle & dishes & road spices. The way she has everything stashed & stacked, in order to get to anything for even a simple meal, she basically has to unpack the car & unload everything.
As w/ everything w/ Jen, all the “stuff” is really nice to have & she wants it ALL, but, when it comes right down to it, she’s not using any of it because she’s made the execution & use of all her stuff way too complicated & tedious.
Eating salad out of a bag is MUCH easier & more convenient than digging everything out of all its pouches & bins, as is a box of pop tarts for breakfast.
And, speaking of pouches & bags, just in this ONE vehicle, HOW MANY bags did Jen have… all those backpacks, the duffel bags, the pouches… it’s INSANE.
Also, I was surprised she showed the very plebeian bag of Lay’s potato chips.
