callmerobin replied to your post: Where do I apply?
GOD I hate this! People will literally call me and say they have someone on the phone for one of my bosses, but they aren’t answering. I’m not their GD secretary, let them leave a voicemail like a normal person….
I feel like we work in the same office. I’m the only one from my department on this floor. There are 2 other women from...

And this one, too: “I know you’re busy, buuuuuuut….”
Those few words automatically raise my blood pressure.

Aww, you called me a lady. :) See….I can be nice.

– RETIRE THIS PHRASE RIGHT NOW BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT ANYWHERE CLOSE TO BEING SORRY THAT YOU’RE BEING A PAIN IN THE ASS OR ELSE YOU WOULDN’T ASK WHAT YOU’RE ABOUT TO ASK.

Where do I apply?
Does no one take responsibility for themselves anymore? It’s probably the same every where you go, but I think I work with a lot of lazy people.
Yesterday, a co-worker in charge of one area at the event on Sunday was working on her signs and things for the competition she runs. She asked me to run them off, which is fine because I was running the large printer. As I looked them over, I...

calamityshana replied to your post: LENORE IS DONE!
Requesting a picture of Lenore when she arrives again in the driveway, please.
I’ll do my best. I got to drive her today for the first time and it was just wonderful to have her back. I leave when it’s dark and get home when it’s dark, but I’ll try to get a picture of her beauty soon.
I did it!
garycope replied to your post: I’m a wimp
Atta girl! Hey, I was so unmotivated and blah today and the last thing I wanted to do was go to the gym. But I did. And I feel so much better now!
I didn’t think about it after I left work. I just went and I was tired, but it felt good to push through all of that. I ran into the husband of the couple I was out with on Saturday and ended up...

I'm a wimp
I know it’ll be good for me once I get there, but I haven’t been to the gym since last Friday. Saturday is my rest day, Sunday I was sick, Monday & Tuesday were recovery days from sickness….so I don’t really have an excuse to not go tonight other than I’m being lazy. It’s such a draining week for me at work because I go a mile a minute to get everything...

Want a medal?
Her: I'm going to get there at 1:00 on Saturday. I just don't want them going through my stuff when they all come to help set up at 2:00.
Me: Okay, well...I've been planning on getting there at 3:00.
Her: Oooook. If you think that will give you enough time.

Talk is cheap
(Please read her tone as snarky and sarcastic)
Her: Did you watch the State of the Union?
Me: I tuned in around 10 while I was folding laundry.
Her: You didn't watch the whole thing?!
Me: Did something big happen?
Her: I just thought you were an Obama lover.
Me: If by Obama lover you mean an awesome Democrat, then yes I am. But no, I did not sit there with a bowl of popcorn to devour his every word. I've only ever watched one State of the Union and that's because I had to write a paper on it. I'll catch the highlights and main points from the news that I watch every morning, or NPR on my commute, or by READING.
Her: Yea, but the places you get your news are probably biased. I just thought you cared more.
Me: Listen, actions speak louder than words. It's an old tradition to stand up there and say a lot of pretty words to make people feel good. Not watching it doesn't mean I don't care.

story time
Wanna hear a crazy story? Course ya do….
My uncle and aunt were at church last Sunday. After the service, a secretary congratulated my uncle on his son’s upcoming wedding. He thanked her and said they were all excited for October. She corrected him and said she was talking about the one in August…specifically the one on August 24th happening at the church they were standing in....
Things I've done today that I'm not ashamed of.
whatyousaybabyk:
Asked my dad to send me flowers for valentine’s day.
Because everyone else will be getting them in my office. Let’s stave off the bitterness of valentine’s day with something pretty, especially because I’ll have class that night and can’t start drinking until after 8:00. Seems like a good plan, unless my dad chooses NOT to send me them. Then that’s really sad.
We need a...

LENORE IS DONE!
MY CAR IS COMING HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After a month and 1 week without her, I finally get my precious Lenore back. AND, he saved me $600. I’m not even mad she’s been gone for so long.

peace and quiet
Work wasn’t so horrible. I did have a ton of things to catch up on, but I was all good by 2:00 PM. Not bad.
I didn’t have patience for these 2 things, which caused the BYE TODAY IS OVER:
(Setting the scene: 22 voicemails, 126 ticket sales emails, about 10 random odds and ends follow up emails.) I had printed all of my ticket sales and had them laid out on my desk to be processed. I...

Girl, you are entirely too hard on yourself. But, I know where you’re coming from. I’m in the same place, but instead of Serena’s butt, I want her guns!
That picture is very forgiving, but thanks! And that women is a beautiful beast! You’re guns are definitely Serena worthy.

cupofchi replied to your post: Being Sick
Pros: getting lots and lots of rest? Hopefully eating soup? I don’t know…hope you feel better soon!
I haven’t graduated to soup yet. Just toast and applesauce for now. I did get a nap here or there.

I’m not kidding, that stomach bug I had yesterday and into last night…horrible. I lost 5 pounds in one day. Not a bad thing, but I never want to go through that again.
Thankfully, while I was up last night at about 3AM, I caught up on my Words With Friends games. My sister-in-law in Oklahoma and kimbaland both kept me entertained with moves until I fell back asleep again on the...

Being Sick
Cons:
- General feeling of feeling like shit
- Ungodly bodily fluids
- Being unable to breathe because (TMI) I’m choking on what’s coming up
- Laying under 4 blankets and a heating pad because I’m freezing like a wuss
Pros:

Please, there’s nothing good right now. My poor baby nephew has been dealing with it for a few days so that’s...

I was having a lovely dinner at Tele’s when my sister’s neighbor/a friend of mine kept texting me to join her and her husband at another bar. They met this guy from South Carolina and she thought I needed to meet him and he might be THE ONE. I knew better and kept trying to put it off, but eventually gave in because she wouldn’t stop texting me.
I should have texted her husband...

Those shorts do NOT see the light of day in public anymore. I wear them under my shorts when I workout.

My boss and the intern wen to some Social Media thing the other day, so yesterday while we were out visiting a mansion (good times…I had to take pictures of the house because the owner offered a dinner/B&B type deal for our event auction), I asked them how it went.
They kept calling Pinterest “Pin-Interest”…like 2 separate words. My intern then said she had checked it...
