Dallas web conference and coffee lessons

Yes people. I had some validation from outside industry people this past weekend...made me all warm and fuzzy inside and helped me forget the previous week. I also got some very nice info on branding and Search engine optimization. Yes boring life but it's cool to me. The dogs got to visit with their schanuzer cousins and maisy kicked my stepdad out of HER bed, but all in all it was a productive weekend. I got my lovely light fixtures ordered too I can't wait for them to be up and lit. should make the place even classier. Cool

hello brick wall, it's me again

 

 

Well, for the umpteenth time, I've learned my lesson about people. They don't want to change. Change is bad. Change is evil even when the status quo is what's actually evil and what's eating away at them in the first place. I too am guilty of this as I obviously keep wanting something I so overwhelmingly yet subtly have been shown that in fact, I will not, cannot, under any circumstances have. But uh...never been told the reason why, but I should just be ok with that because the evil control weasels want it that way. well you can keep it this time. In record time I might add. It took less than a week for me to understand it and then just get over it. I'm really sick of the manipulative acts some people go through in order to maintain a feeling of control. Notice I said feeling because, sweetie, that's all it is. So I will embrace change this time because the status quo just ain't workin' for me no more...not that it ever has. i may be lost, but i certainly don't want to be here anymore.

creepy.

some people are being very loud in the office today. very loud. It's like they've forgotten time travels or something. Anyhoo. I've come to the conclusion that I know nothing about anything. Which makes decisions pretty damn hard if you ask me. How do you know when you're doing the right thing? and how do you know the difference between what you want versus what's right? hrrmmmm

pending doom...

Sundays suck. I think about the fact that i have to go back to work. Major dread. not a good thing to be happening if you ask me. i think i can actually feel theseasons changing though as I'm finding people change their mentalities. Maybe it really is the heat. So how can you be sure you're talking to the real them?

*sigh* - tired yet exhausted

life is catching up with me...and i'm getting tired and sleepy. I'm not really complaining as it's made me too exhausted to dwell on stupid things I shouldn't be thinking about anyway. Wel, I think about them I just don't have time to be sad about it. and for now that's a good thing. yes it's most likely avoiding the issue but even if i tried addressing the issue head on I still won't get anywhere as I haven't a clue as to solving it. I did make a couple of life decisions last week though and I'm determined to follow through with them...sort of new years resolutions 9 months late. Who said they all have to be made in january anyway? Most of the time your hungover and will promise anything just to get the headache to go away. anyhoo...portfolio is substantially updated and changed...with still even more to be added. If you know anyone needing freelance let me know.

my keeetchen looks purty

i have no pictures yet because frankly, all the crap that's supposed to be in the kitchen is on the kitchen table. But once again Carlos and his gurus of painting have come through for me and made my kitchen look awesome and like a real kitchen!

that's such an odd name for a room....kitchen. say it 3 times fast.

i'm dealing with the ickiness again and most likely the majority of it is in my head. However, I have come to the conclusion that certain people no matter how hard you try, no matter what you do, no matter how much they've hurt you in the past or the present simply have no conscience whatsoever. I'm done trying. I'm not putting forth anymore effort. It's hurting me too much to just be made to feel like a loser over someone who refuses to just confront their own crap. what is it about self-destructive people that have the capability to just cripple the rest of us with their crap that they caused. It's not like they ever learn. Are they really happy that way? I don't think I know what happiness is though. I definitely don't think anyone is TOTALLY happy. If they say they are they're lying or on drugs.

the Don Corleone of Schnauzers

Someone left a stuffed toy squirrel in my bed yesterday. I can only assume that the girls are watching the Godfather when I'm at work.  They're upset that they have to share a crate when the painters are there. I really think it will be done today. Hopefully. Otherwise there may more than a stuffed squirrel next time.

arrrrrrgghhhh: top 10 things that frost my cookies

1. People who give vague objectives and lead you to think they don't know what they want. and when you give them something, they get upset.

2. People who never take accountability for their actions and proceed to put the blame on others when it's completely clear they're delusional.

3. When those same people run away from responsibility.

4. People who seem incapable of getting to the point

5. My neighbor who hates dogs

6. Pointless work that is required only to serve someone's ego

7. People who try to walk all over other people

8. The fact that Mia refuses to sit still to get her nails cut

9. People who take joy in ruining other people's days by pissing verbally all over them

10. mean guys who can't get over themselves

11. skanks

I'm having a rough day, can you tell? I thought my kitchen was gonna be done today, but *sigh* it's not. I really think it will be tomorrow though. the guy textured the wall today and the only thing i can see that's left is paint. It looks so much better though. I needed my lunch break today ...I needed to just be with my little furry dogs for support even if it was for just an hour. I feel like I hit a wall going 90 miles an hour and it's not sitting well with me. I usually get all emotional and overfunction when i feel like this. arg.
