On Where I become an Adult
It’s Sunday. I am tired and I have to travel this week. Blah, I don’t want to.
Here’s the thing. I get invited to many events because of my job and have started to make new friends in this strange town.
A called me at 7pm and asked if I wanted to grab some coffee after 8pm and I kicked it around my head for a moment, but thought crap it’s sunday night, I’m tired,...

Things I Hate No 1
When people text you stupid things like “Hey” and you text them back and then they just disappear in the middle of the text conversation. Like did you want to talk to me, what the goal in that texting? Are you trying to be aloof? Because you just entered ahole status where I don’t want to talk to you again. And it’s usually men not women. Ughhh.
Ha! Did I tell you I met a guy through a friend at a dinner thing and he said he like everything about me except the way I dressed. He said he preferred girls who dress more conservatively. He said that while I was wearing green tights, a colorblock dress, slouchy boots, and a leather jacket.
I looked at my outfit and thought WTF is wrong with this. I will never compromise fashion for a man. ...
Half an hour till greek food and I am so hungry I think I might pass out. God dammit Marcie, why do we have eat so late?

Another Saturday Night
and it’s another disappointment. Or rather people are a disappointment. Glad Marcie called.

For some reason, I wish I could do this while watching defunct reality shows including Rich Girls, Gastineau Girls, and Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica.
Yes, I actually watched all of those. I also loved the one where Lisa Loeb was trying to find a boyfriend.
I also still believe that Nick and Jessica will eventually get back together, like Natalie Wood...

Holy Crap! Did I get a raise or did they make a mistake on my paycheck today? It’s so hard to tell with automatic deposit. Friday is looking up.
I thought I was Ok When
My stupid blackberry alarm went off to remind me of an event that I was supposed to go to today.
I was supposed to go to a hockey with X tonight. Fuck you blackberry cause you made me cry. But really fuck you X.
I wish X would stop texting and emailing me. Maybe he will eventually.
So I have to get on a conference call in 15 minutes and don’t want to contribute, don’t feel in a...
When I get sad, I stop being sad and be Awesome...
emphasisadded:
Things have been terrible. I have been sick and heartbroken and so so sad. And now I don’t want to be sick or heartbroken or sad. I am ready to be me again. And Scene.
Thank you. I have been the same way this week. And I’ve been crying about it all week. I just want to not feel like this anymore. Yeah ready to me again. Let’s do it.
I'm Watching The September Issue Right Now
And all I can think is why does Anna Wintour have a crappy motorola phone and not a smart phone?
ugh to the ugh.

I didn’t think this day/week/month could get any worse, and then my $600 super wide-angle lens fell out of my camera bag when I was leaving the house, hit the ground and shattered into a thousand glass shards and I realized, yep, apparently it can.
seriously 2010 has kind of sucked so far. And this has been the worst of it all.

If I just fall asleep at 5:25 will everything stop hurting by tomorrow morning?
I wish I could tell you yes and it would be true.
I know and I appreciate it.
I think I need Some Drag Queen Love Tonight....
If I just fall asleep at 5:25 will everything stop hurting by tomorrow morning?
Lavitimia what happened? I am dying to know.
And yes you and Brickhause are right, the black one is the one I got.
I wanted to be brave and get the yellow one, but my boobs didn’t agree with.
Dying to wear the black one with some really cute colored tights.
This week has basically sucked from the inception. Major things and minor things. Yesterday’s minor event…get home and have a couple more hours of work to do, get out of my car, grab my still fresh Coke Zero and spill it all inside and outside of my purse.
Today, at the gas station, getting ready for a long drive, on a conference call and get gasoline all over myself, subsequently...
I can't see out of my left Contact
I guess that’s the price you pay for crying in your contacts. Fucking emotional rollercoaster. I better start my period soon.
I had a Torrid Love Affair
with capers last night. The salty goodness melted in my mouth like buttah.
I am usually a cook at home sort of girl or if I eat out it’s Pho or Thai or Indian. But I’ve been having a shit week and my friend decided it’s time to get me away from work and my apartment and get me out of the house for some good eats. We went to this restaurant called Ambrosia and it was delish.

The Phone Conversation I didn't Want to Have
X: I think your a really amazing person and I'm sorry about what I did, but I still want to be friends.
Me: Friends, so what are we gonna kick it over dinner some night, go to hockey games, play frisbee golf?
X: Well yeah that's what friends do?
Me: That's what we did when we were dating. I'm sorry I don't see myself calling you up saying, let's go to Manito Park and play some hoops.
X: Well like I said, I think your amazing and cool and fun and I still want to be friends.
Me: So why don't you meet up with me and P on Friday and we'll all hang out.
X: Who's P?
Me: My date. Your a friend so why not there will be other friends there.
X: I don't feel comfortable hanging out with you and your new guy.
Me: See and this is why we can't be friends. If I was am so fucking amazing and special and awesome and whatever the else you said then you would be with me and your not. So I moved on.
X: I understand that. I would like to be friends with you. I will always be here no matter what. I hope you take me up on that.
Me: No X I have enough friends. I'm good. I hope you feel better that you placated the situation.
X: I did what?
Me: Ok time's up I got to run good bye.

I got an evite today for my 10-year high school reunion. I’m not going but I guess it will now be official. Is it bad that I don’t really care?
No, I didn’t go to mine. Like I really cared about you then, why would I want to see you all fat, pregnant, and/or bald now. One acquaintance that I ran into said, “You didn’t miss a fucking thing.”
Between Saturday and Joshua, I have lost my way.
Yeah shut up, I measure time in terms of people, don’t you.
Refinding it has been unsettling, but I’m learning to not overanalyze and to let it go. Ok I’m trying, learning is a process.

After I finished my year with Americorps, I was hired by a financial firm who pretty much hires anyone. Before I could start working for them, though, I needed to pass a series of licensing exams that pertained to the stock market/investing/laws and ethics of serving as a financial representative. Also, insurance. It was the least interesting thing in the world to me, but I had...
In the last couple days I’ve been knocked down with suprising shock. Am I angry, hurt, pissed off?? Yes, yes and yes. But I’m not gonna lay down and let them keep me down. I’m gonna be a fighter and you better watch out if you get in my way right now because I’m on a personal mission.
Sometimes I believe that if I just dance, it...

On My Weekend
So JK is busy this weekend and I don’t have to work, except a few small things. So I have instituted friend weekend and so far its been pretty freaking good, except can I be sappy and say that I miss JK.
Friday night:
Empyrean with R, K, and P…Slam show down. Rock it.
Satellite Diner with R, K and P to eat greasy diner food at midnight. Breakfast only of course.
Saturday:

I just set my dvr to record "The Pregnancy Pact."

Convo with my friend Pat, the foot specialist.
Pat: I'm having a real conflict of interest here W?
Me: What's that?
Pat: I should be telling you not to wear heels everyday because they are horrible for your feet, but your butt looks really good when do you wear them.
Men…I will never understand you.
SO I have chosen to give you no consideration at all.
I will focus on my career and my friends and you will no longer take up space in my mind or heart.
You always disappoint me and I am old enough to know better.
So fuck you.
I kind of feel like crying. I have this pit in my stomach that won’t go away. I can’t fill it.
And I know that I work hard and that things will be ok. And I know that J is really sorry about waking up late for our lunch date, but it doesn’t make it any better. Whatever, he’s on vacation, he’s allowed to. I’ve been working all morning and will be all...

Today I am having a hard time getting my ass off this computer and out in the field to work. The thing is, its not like I hate my job, I have a great job most days. People hate me sometimes, but I get over that pretty quickly, its the nature of the beast of social change.
But I just want to lay in bed cause I have to work late tonight! I mean come on ya’ll I have to throw a meeting/party...
