My new most favorite Oprah quote is ‘that is the most craziest ass thing’!!! She said it on one of those behind the scene shows and it is just so funny to me cause soooo many thing are the craziest ass things. Like for instance, how do you sign a contract and NOT read it and then when it comes back you’re like OH WAIT THAT WAS WRONG!!! Or I keep wearing these pants that have no button and are slightly high watery… yet I keep wearing them like they are brand new!! See CRAZIEST ASS THING!!
I have been having an attack of the pet peeves lately. For so long so many thing have just ceased to bother me as much as they used to but these little suckers are rearing their ugly head. Like the whole fax and printer thing… No I actually didn’t ask you to get those papers for me SO LEAVE THEM THERE!! They aren’t bothering you and yes I DO have a system so WTF are you bothering them?!?!? Yeah I know it’s petty, I’ll own that but it just bugs me soooooooo much. And let me finish asking my question so you can answer what I ask you instead of assuming what you think I’m about to say. It’s called active listening folks, it’s only gonna take me 5 more seconds and I need for you to digest what I say AND THEN provide a good answer for me. There are really only a few folks that know me well enough to know what I’m thinking or about to say AND you aint one of them so just be patient and listen to the damn question. Colored paperclips are just dumb! We are adults and they just feel so middle school… like EEWW look what I got to match my trapper keeper (LMBAO). Just give me a regular smooth silver paperclips that actually CLIP what I need clipping. Along the lines of dumbness… I just don’t get the whole Keurig craze. Ok yeah I get it… you can make one cup of coffee or tea or hot chocolate, but I still think it’s dumb and I am mad there is a whole wall dedicated to k-cups at the Bed Bath and Beyond. A pack of gum or mints can be your best friend. Bad breath is just wrong on so many levels and people should take care not to be in that situation. And should you feel the need to get right up in my face, make sure your shit is right!! I mean DAMN!!!!
I know for sure… oh ok another Oprah-ism… What I know for sure is that everything that happened in my life has shaped me and molded me in ways that I am just now realizing the impact. It would have been nice to know at age 17 when I went to college what the hell I wanted to do, but I didn’t. Now I’m not saying my degree is worthless I have used it in many capacities. But I sometimes wish I knew I wanted to be a doctor specializing in rare diseases, or a 10th grade Art teacher, or you know just something specific. But I think my flailings have taught me a lot. One of the more important lessons Ive learned is I need to feel useful. It is when I start my downward decent when I feel like no one needs me or wants my opinion or knowledge which explains why I been err… ‘downsized’ a few times and/or chose to leave some other places. It just creates stress in my life to not be of valuable. And I know that’s not important to some. But I now know it is to me!
