Oh, the Holidays!

Last night I was reminded why I never want to be out in the stores this close to Christmas. Everyone is bloody M-A-D! My cousin and I went to the mall to return a few items and to say hello to a friend. Worst mistake ever! I can not believe the jack asses who will cut people off, or tailgate, or honk or flip others off. It’s amazing. I even saw one person last weekend get out of their car and yell to the person in front of them while at a stop light. Come on people! Tis the season! Is it the pressure or something? People freak out because they have to be here and there…I thought that was all part of the Christmas times. Take a Prozac or something!

I never thought I would say this, but after last night I wish the Utah drivers would start driving the way they always do.

Motivation or Lack There Of

The motivation to come and do nothing at work is becoming harder and harder. I have to wonder why I come in some days. I come to work and look at the Internet all day long. I am to the point now where there is nothing to look at on the Internet anymore. I am SO BORED! I usually read, but lately I have not found a new book of interest.

I have no idea how my co-workers do it. I get to the point of wanting to slam my head against the desk. Shouldn’t I be doing something of importance?

Matters of the Heart

You! You know who you are. Don’t try and run, because you are never going to hide from me. You disgust me. Does he know? I bet deep down inside he knows, but he fakes it, because you swear up and down he is the one. Is he the one? Like you would know, you are too busy in your own fucking world! Why do you do it? That other guy is so beyond you. When he walks by, he never takes a second glance at you. And here you are dreaming about him tonight. Pitiful. You know he probably has a real life, and never thinks about you, ever. Liar! You lie to me and yourself so much you are starting to believe your own lies!

What is wrong with him? What did he ever do to you? You lead him on. You are afraid of being alone, one of us has to own up to it. I hope you burn in hell. You deserve to be alone. He deserves to be with someone else who will actually love him back. But no, you sit with him, and think of another. You know the other only sees you because he has to. No choice. If you’re so brave why don’t you confess your concrete love for him? Yeah I did not think so. All those books you read are that, only books. No man will ever sweep you off your feet, not this guy, not the other. You are just plain ugly to love. He can’t love someone like you.

Your tearing us up inside. One day you are going to blow. Volcano. You will be alone. I will be your only companion. Alone!

Wish you were dead yet? Yeah, me too.

Marriage Myths

I stumbled across this study, and can't help but cringe. Marriage seems to be the topic of my friends and family lately concerning me and my boyfriend of two years. These 10 myths are a huge part of why I am not married to him, he thinks most of these myths are true. I think I like Joe Berger's views better!

Top 10 Myths That Can Wreck A Marriage!
By (Joe Berger, from Cornell Univ. study)


Myth 1: "Husbands and wives should be best friends." Best friends are almost always of the same sex. No matter how close a married couple is, men relate best to men, and women get along best with other women.

Myth 2: "Marriage can fulfill all your dreams." Not always. People should not marry for the sake of marriage itself because the relationship may lack joy, kindness, and love--leaving them miserable.

Myth 3: "Husbands and wives should do everything together." It's often best for mates to pursue their own interests. There's no reason why a husband should be made to get to the ballet or a wife should be forced to watch football.

Myth 4: "Good husbands do household repairs." Good wives do laundry. Not necessarily. Rather than fight over who should do certain chores, sometimes it's best for one mate to break the traditional sexual barrier and do his or her mate's job.

Myth 5: "Having a child will improve a bad marriage." No it won't. All the hard work of caring for the child will further weaken the marriage. A child will strengthen a marriage only if it's already a good relationship.

Myth 6: "Marriage should be a 50-50 partnership." Mates shouldn't keep score. Some people will naturally give more than others in a marriage, and worry over giving too much or too little can take love out of the relationship.

Myth 7: "Exciting romantic love makes a good marriage." Passionate love burns out very quickly--but warm, affectionate married love will bring you lasting security and comfort.

Myth 8: "An unhappy marriage is better than broken home." Children of a miserable couple often say they'd prefer the relative peace and quiet that follows a divorce. If a couple is unhappy, they shouldn't stay together just "for the children's sake."

Myth 9: "Competition between spouses adds sparkle to a marriage." Competition often leads to open hostility.

Myth 10: "Don't have sex when you're angry." Making love while you're angry can help clear the air.

The Black Dagger Brotherhood

I can't stop reading these books. J.R. Ward is a great author. If you know these books, then you probably understand the whole Vishous thing. Anyway, check them out if you ever get a chance, you will get suckered in like mwah!

Here is book five, and my favorite one so far.




Yes, I am a romance fan.

On A Rainy Monday

I can’t help but not function today.

I went to Colorado last week, and I am emotionally and physically exhausted. Seeing family just is not my thing. Yeah, yeah I know it was Thanksgiving, BUT STILL! Sitting around shoving your face full of turkey and being stuck with the crazies you call family is the last thing to do on my list. Thanksgiving is totally overrated unless you mean the giving thanks part. Does anyone do that any more?

The great part about Turkey day, is the day after, black Friday baby! I wake up at the butt crack of dawn to search around for that great deal. I am an avid people watcher as well, and you just can’t top all the toy hungry mothers.

This year I went to Target. I was able to get everything I needed, and of course watch the madness. I want to know who came up with the GENIUS idea to put all of the electronic sale items (ipod, cameras, PSP, phones) in that circle counter they have in electronics. I have never been to Target on black Friday, so I am not sure if they do this every year. I hate it. Why else would you wake up at 4 in the morning and wait in the cold for something that wasn't electronic? So you have layers of people around this blessed circle with TWO employees! Who by the way are extremely excited to be working on a Friday morning!

Luckily I know how to get what I want, I moshed through that crowd, and got to the front getting the digital camera for my parents, and then later on getting the electronic keyboard as well.

Fancy eh?

Christmas is a coming!

Dad's Saturn

My feet can't touch the floor
I like it that way
Swinging one foot in front of the other
In my dad's new Saturn.
Pure Innocence

My bare feet graze the floor
I like it that way
Letting the carpet fit in between my toes
In my dad's almost new Saturn.
Blank Canvas

My feet are crossed on the floor
I like it that way
My arms match my feet
In my dad's Saturn
Set in my ways

My feet touch the peddles
I like it that way
My hands grip the wheel
In my dad's old Saturn
Pure innocence
