That day

Well, another day another year. Wonder what the news will be like
today? Haven't checked it yet, but I will go do that. Today is my
birthday and for the most part it is going as the rest of them have in
the past, quietly and no excitement. Sure it is my own fault.

Enough on that, as I am more focused on having a much better attitude
in life and moving forward. Things are pretty tight right now and to
be honest....hard. But, that is just how life is at times and it
means I am not doing what I should be doing I'm sure. So I will be
working on that.

Isn't it weird that when you bitch about something it makes you think
you feel better? I slipped into that hole pretty damn deep actually.
Getting out of it is to say the least not all that simple. But I have
to! Can't keep being so negative about things or life for that
matter. Hasn't brought me anything good so I think a change in course
is really needed.

Okay....blogger wins....for now!

Okay, I am now happy to finally decide on the blog I am going to use.
And this is it. Least for now it is...LOL. Seriously this has been
bugging me forever. Why I do not know, but this is the blog I am
going to concentrate on and make it mine. Learning that the whole web
2.0 is a good thing and the way to go. Just the ability for me to
make posts from my email from any of my computers is a huge thing for
me and to keep my own copies. Granted, no one knows what in the hell
I am talking about but I do and now I am moving forward with
everything.

Time to change

Okay, think the time has come for me to make some serious changes.
Like being more positive thinking and acting. Enough with being
negative.

Think my sight is getting worse. Which scares me because I have new
glasses. Diabetes is a very shitty think I am coming to realize.

Sorry about that

Isn't it funny how when someone screws up, (especially a supervisor)
how they feel that telling you sorry makes everything okay? Yet when
you make a mistake they remind you of it all the time. Even a year
later at your review time? Makes me wonder, why even try? Why am I
concerned about schedules? Granted I would only be screwing myself.

Good day!

Today was fun after all. Love it when someone runs their mouth, and
then I get to shove my foot in! LOL, guy at work bitches about how he
is so great at sales and my numbers don't match his. Course in my
position I don't sell much. And usually the sales I do get I give to
others to help their numbers. But today I kept them, and I neat this
guy so damn bad. And I wasn't even trying. Kiss my ass mofo! So. I'm
feeling pretty good.

Yesterday was a lot of fun too. Very relaxing actually. Feel like the
tide is changing for me now. Bout damn time!

Then I talked to my mom today. She is wanting a "PDA!" OMG, LOL. So I
am checking on a few for her. Course I am partial to a certian one.
Will see if it can work for her. Then she went on this thing about
"the perfect christmas gift" for me that she got. It is killing her
to tell me I can tell. Never heard her so excited about a gift for me
before. Guess I will find out in a month.

Gotta love being interupted

One thing that drives me nuts at work is how many people think it is
completely fine to interrupt others. And I am talking about other
employees. I am talking to a client and they think it is fine to
answer a question I am being asked. What is one to do when this
happens? I just ignore them now and walk away. It makes me pissed
but I can't say anything.

Read this story about a couple that is divorcing in New York. He is a
preacher, and seems he has been using the church as his own checkbook
for sometime. In a nutshell the wife is putting claims against the
church itself as community property because of how he has been using
it. Makes me wonder how this will all play out if she wins. Hasn't
the time for tax exempt status of churches needs to end? How or why
do they need this status anyway? They own property, and who knows how
much in assets. Makes me wonder how much healthcare we could provide
if just the churches paid their fair share. This is a group of people
that have chosen a common belief to share and are protected under the
laws of this country. Yet, gay people are not entited to any
protections, and why? Because others don't think they should have
it. Who in the hell are these other people anyway?

Its all good

Yeah, i am very disappointed in the fact that I am at work and not going to the game today.  But, I guess dealing with disappointment is just part of life and not much I can do about it.  Even though there is this stubborn side of me that just wants to tell my bosses to go fuck themselves.  And I have learned a pretty important thing about the people I work with.  None of them would take this day so I could go to the game.  Yet they ask me for favors.  Not that I am vengeful, but it will be a very chilly day in hell before I do anymore favors.

Last night we went to dinner at the Daily Grill.  The food was great and the service really awesome too.  But the wine we had was so damn good.  Course at the moment I can't remember it so I will have to update this when I find it.  Just a great time!  Then we went to the Kathy Griffin show at the Paramount.  All I can say, if you ever get a chance to see her live .... run as fast as you can to get tickets.  She was brilliant!  The longer I see and hear her the more I love her.  She really is a blast, GO SEE HER!!!

Let me ask a simple question.  Is it better to rant in a journal, allowing yourself the ability to get all those negative feelings out of your system?  Last thing I want is to have a blog full of my bitching and whining.  Think I should just journal in my calendar, keep the rants there so I release my feelings and can focus more on being positive and writing here about how life is going.  Very confusing since much of my work stuff is rant related.  Don't people like the more positive stuff then the negative?  Ya'll tell me.

Free at last, free at last!  So glad to be out of work. Gonna go have a couple of drinks to unwind. 

Another morning at the fruit

Why do so many people find the need to interrupt?

Add to that a group of juvunial asshole bosses.  Saddens me actually that I allow these people to effect me in the way they do.  Guess it is my own fault for that one.  Something i will have to stop doing.  Maybe I am just being an ass, but not all that much I don't think.  Not that it matters.

Today was suppose to be a huge rush and I think we had a fair day.  Nothing like they told us we should have expected.  Retail is really a dog and pony act that can drive anyone crazy.  Not sure why anyone would want to be involved it, in the first place.  Hope I never find myself in such a job ever again.  The money sucks, schedules are just nuts.  It is the modern version of slave labor I swear.  And I am not even talking about how people treat each other.

Enough about all that shit.  Tonight I am going to see Kathy Griffin in concert.  Really looking forward to this show and hope to have a nice evening.  Going to be having dinner at a place I have been to once, the Daily Diner.  Looking at getting more photography work done and hope to add some new clients on the other side as well.  Got to get this going and get out of this sewer I am in right now.

Funny damn morning

There are mornings I just wish I understood why. Why are these people
up and bugging me? Why are they not in bed sleeping and staying out
of our way. Seriously, most people should only be allowed on the road
for like 45 minutes per day, and only one 90 period on the weekends.

So, I come into work early on Fridays because it is my day to make the
daily schedule. Now why in the hell they don't just give this duty to
one person is beyond me. But, we each do it. This morning one of the
managers (one that I am quickly coming to distain) decides to change
the schedule I made. Why are they wasting my time with this shit? If
she is going to just change it at will without even talking to anyone
about it, why am I wasting my time making the damn thing?

Checking out this link

Well, I am thinking I will be using this blog as my main one here in
the very near future. Hope that I can post and use it from anywhere.
Since I am writing more and more and as things hit me.

Adding pictures with Macjournal

So wish blogger would allow picture posting from within Macjournal. Really would be awesome not to mention video or yourtube links and such. Personally I like checking and working on my blog throughout the day and then just post it with a single click. Really hope they bring this to reality and let the Macjournal guys put this in.

Just thinking

More and more I am finding myself wanting to use this site to post on more then anything else. Not sure why but I do.
