I Truly Understand (just rambling)

One day a while back, I was sitting at my neighbors house with her family talking about life. During the conversation we discussed working versus being a housewife. Well her sister stated that the reason she is a housewife is because she didnt like working cause she didnt like being around alot of people. Now that sounded retarded as hell to me back then, but now it really doesnt seem so bad cause people are truly getting on my last damn nerve.

My car pool no matter how early we leave always gets me to work at the same time, LATE! She likes to tell me the day b4, "oh i am ridining in with my hubby tomorrow or i am leaving early this afternoon." To which I am left looking like "WTF!! Well thanks for telling me, sheesh."

Then there are the folks I work with who are like "lets have a meeting in the morning to discuss what we know about this project." Well what time in the morning? I mean you dont come in till 10 am as is so do you mean late morning or early afternoon? Or the other chick that always wants to know how to do something when in the beginning of the of our office transistion where they decided she would be a better fit than me, I completely flooded her inbox with examples of everything she could possibly need to know, but no, instead of looking she decides to ask me. I am like I typed up a document that walks you through the work but yet you still ask me. I sent you countless emails with examples and explanations, but yet you still ask me. I have physically shown you and walked you threw everything, but yet you still ask me! I dont get it. They deemed you the better fit but all these many months later (which I think its been atleast 6) you still asking me so hell I may as well had of stayed put.

I got a car and credit cards that I pay for but are unable to use. I got a job that bores the heck out of me. I got friends that need more than a starving baby left in the woods. I have people who tell me I am not personably but yet they keep talking to me. I think I am becoming an alcoholic and to top it all off, I have gained 15 lbs since early 05!!! This is just the beginning of 06 and I am already ready for it to be done with.

I am almost 30 dag nabbit. When will that damn knight in shinning armor that my mother read to me so many countless nights as a child come find me and take me away to the dang blasted castle with the maids and cooks and drivers so that we can live happily ever after. I mean really, I am not hard to find. I have lived in the same house for the last 15 yrs with the same phone number for the last 10. Do I need to put a flag out front. If google earth can find me surely he can. I dont want to end up being that lady with the 30 cats and the house that smells like a liter box.

why do i even bother?

  1. why did my ride tell me to be ready by 720 when she didnt leave her house till 745?
  2. why when she got to my house we still had to drop her kidd off at daycare?
  3. why did i have to listen to her rant about her selfish husband?
  4. why would you get mad at him for not assisting you with the kid when you told him before the kid popped out that he didnt have to?
  5. why was she complaining about morning traffic? its called rush hour for a reason dammit!!
  6. why did it take 2 hrs to get to work when it normally barely takes me an hour?
  7. why do i have to ride all the way to her office and get on the train to get to my office when we pass my office to get to hers?
  8. why do i keep allowing myself to be put in these situations trying to be nice when no matter what i do people still think i am mean?
  9. why am i wasting precious time posting in this damn blog when i should be doing work to make up for the fact that i was a whole damn hour late to work?

Monday Again?

Okay, I am recovering from a weekend (ski trip) of drinking and my stomach is gooey, my hands and feet are swollen, my hair is uncombed, my skin ashy and i am not sure if i remembered to brush my teeth this morning, BUT to my credit I made it to work and ontime. Whats more incredible is that my outfit even matches cause clearly i was not fully awake. i was rudely awakened by a friend and fellow co-worker who needed a ride this morning. i coul dhave sworn my new years resolution was to not be nice to folks this year. not going so well.

Now during the course of my weekend excursion, i learned a few things. 1) never take a parent without bringing him/her a chaperone (provided this is not a true family vacation otherwise u r stuck) so that he/she wont be hunting you down every five minutes. 2) never go on a trip with out checking the male/female single/couple ratio. 3) stay at the resort! 4)make sure the folks u got with u like to have the type of fun u like to have. if u like adventure dont roll with a wuss... if u like good clean fun dont go with folks who r planning to attend the hedonism cruise! and last but not least 5) know how to entertain ur damn self cause no matter whether u have 1-4 covered there is always gonna be those times when u r just by urself. do all these and u r guaranteed to have a great time!

......

hey, my morning is looking up. a complete and total stranger bought me breakfast and offered to by me dinner every night at his favorite restarant. not the cutest man in the world but he is far from ugly. little older than i like but hey, we can look around those things cant we. i mean i am not THAT superficial.

Super Woman

Why do these people think I walk on water? Although that is a great compliment it also is very stressful. If I hear 'oh you can do it' one more time. I promise these people think I can cure cancer, free hostages, end wars, and destroy a meteor hurling towards the earth all with out breaking a nail. Hell I can barely balance my checkbook. The fact that I am typing right now they think I am doing something important. HA!

Another Monday...

Its another Monday morning. I am tired, my task manager is "sick" and although I know I am supposed to be working I am unable to concentrate right now. I wish I could find a career or a job that would allows me to keep my current salary but only work Tues-Thursday.

Atleast I had a decent weekend. I got to do some light shopping, which is my favorite exercise. Yes, shopping is an exericise and fullbody I might add. It incorporates walking (and sometimes running when there is a good sale, both of which is good cardio for the heart), lifting (gotta lift those packages off the counter), stair masters (otherwise known as the escalator), curls ( holding clothes up to your body to see if they will fit), and squats (movement required when trying on pants, skirts or shoes) just to name a few; however back to my purchases. I purchase a great knit black dress (can never have too many) ON SALE from banana republic (LOVE that store) and a couple lip glosses from victoria's secret that this woman told me may make my lips sticky and altough I hate sticky lips I proceeded to buy the dang gloss anyway (I dont know why). I also got a nice sheer tinted lip gloss from mac, their new tint toons line. Its limited addition (as the dang sales girl kept reminding me) and supposedly is not sticky and has vitamins to condition your lips.

Sidebar: Okay why the hell did the receptionist in my office ask me if i had something she could drink. Last time I checked I was not a vending machine. We have free coffee, tea, crystal light and water in the kitchen. Lawd help me, I can already see this is gonna be a long day!
