That its only 27 and a half days left
I still have quite a bit to do before then.

And I can't wait for that king, the sadistic little prick, to get what's coming to him, LOL

Do you notice how strong the youngest women are? The little girl dressed like a boy for a while, and the teenage queen-to-be engaged to the little prick?

I like for those characters to be out there in the world counterbalancing the ditzes little girls are encouraged to model themselves after.

Trust is always a risk, IMO. You don't trust too much or too little, you either trust or don't trust—it's like being a little pregnant, as they say.

If you think you're trusting too much, that's distrust (again, IMO).

I think it's almost always worth it, though. Each time I trust unwisely, I realize I wasn't listening to my own inner warning system. I wasn't trusting myself.

Of course I'm not talking about the kind of encounter one might have with a skillful sociopath, who is able to disarm a person's inner warning system without that person knowing it.

I'm just talking about, regular people engaged in the usual struggle to be close.

I'm not trying to advise you, Prudence. Your post just got me thinking.

Wishing you happiness.

The drive
 

up and back on 85

The fact that we're watching episode #4,893,094 (okay that might be a teeny bit overblown) of House Hunters......

I think we've seen every single house in the United States now....

This week is going to be intensely brutal. There have been major changes to the project on the client's side, to which we've had to respond with major changes of our own. Still everything rolls forth as originally planned, yet we're still in change management.

Bronchitis doesn't help. *wheeze*

I just need to get through this week. After that I'll be far more comfortable and more than mildly happy at work.

Apparently it's everyones birthday today.

I hope they like what they read and call me!
*no stinkin' thinkin'*

Today it's that some people are not good communicators like they seem to think they are. That it erodes my trust in humanity each time someone plays these sorts of childish games.

My thoughts are with Mare - hoping she deals with a very difficult and sociopathic employee with some detachment and calm today.

I hope the nice weather hangs around- I ripped all of my winter tights (I might be a klutz), and don't feel like buying more.

Being me
 

Thinking about how great it feels to not have to compromised
not feel on the edge worrying if I am saying the right thing.
Moving forward and leaving friendships that brought me sadness and hurt behind.

Being out sick today I wanted to put an out of office on my Outlook for work sorta like this:

Today, I am sick. Take a deep breath. CALM THE FUCK DOWN PEOPLE. You will survive and the earth will keep moving, and not fall into an apocalypse if I do not respond to your email today. If you're lucky, you'll hear from me when I want to get back with you. Laters.

wal-mart....and how much I really do NOT want to go there today.
