recognized thresholds of negative stress...

I just kept myself amused at the meeting I just left.  The one woman has this filler phrase that she uses which I’m positive she doesn’t realize she is doing.  It’s an old Toastmaster thing… oh yeah in addition to the 50eleven jobs I’ve had, I am also a Certified Toastmaster!! When people say things like uh, um, and, so or something to that affect to fill space when you are giving a speech, it’s a filler word/phrase.  Hers is ‘…things like at’.  I will be a full sentence where everything has been expressed and then she says …and things like at (which is her hick way of saying that… did I go there?!?! No not really LOL).  It’s funny to me and I kept track at this meeting so as not to go to sleep.  In an hour plus meeting she said it 15 times.  I started to drift when she wasn’t speaking.  The only other thing was I was tracking the consultant in Colorado who takes everything out of proportion which she only did once.  It’s usually at least 3 times for her. 

**update** after meeting #2 with the same woman it was 5 times.  I also tracked who interrupted people and that happened 7 times.  After meeting #3 she said ‘stuff like at’ and said it 11 times!  Only 2ce for the out of control person!

I drink a lot of water at least 64oz a day if not more.  When the meeting is over, get the hell out my way!!!  I always gotta go…always Always ALWAYS!!! And if it’s a conference call I might hang up on you.  Yeah!

I saw some dumb little random video on facebook where the guy had a burrito bowl. So what did I want today? A freaking burrito bowl!!! I went to Q’Doba because I’m not a Chipotle kinda chick.  That thing was good as heck!!! I sat there and literally stuffed my face and then wanted to get back in line and get more!!  But that would have been not a great idea.  I just took a little tummy pill (meaning the pill so that I am not gassy in the assy LOL) and I hope it jumps ahead of the food in my belly so that it can do the trick.  I so enjoy people watching.  If I could just post up somewhere and just look at the people and judge them, (hey don’t judge me for my judegerization LOL) that is my idea of a nice afternoon.  The one woman had on an outfit I’d describe as ‘color blocking gone wrong’.  So she had on a blue lace dress… or not lace, maybe eyelet?!?  Anyway it was navy, she had on maroon tights, olive shoes and a tan sweater.  And my first thought was what the hell were you thinking?  Nothing matched, nothing went together, it was just a mess!! Because you know I am such a bastion of fashion LOL and then right after she walked out this old wrinkly lady walked in with these little shorts.  I mean it is a nice day, but yeah no!  There was an hmmm… I was gonna say he was an Indian guy but maybe he was from somewhere else, but he looked like Orlando Jones! I shoulda got a pic.  But I am horrible at getting the secret pic.  I have to think about where the camera app is, if my volume is on mute because if I take the pic will I hear CLICK AND will the flash go off and it’s too much pressure because it should be quick and effortless but it never is.  Last week I was watching a guy taking a pic of an unsuspecting woman who had had on leggings… which I hate, both leggings and that he took the pic.  This weekend I saw a guy on with meggins… they exist!!! I had to stop staring because he caught me looking a few times LOL. #random Damn where was I?!? OH people watching today… There was this one woman who was so busy being on the phone that she didn’t even thank the service guy (it was all blue… is that the navy?) who held the door for her.  I thought they were together, but they weren’t.  OH I need to register my card… gotta get the free chips and salsa! And I’m listening to The Soul Glo Project podcast (http://www.thesoulgloproject.com/ ) AND trying to get some work done.  The person I need the bulk of the info sits right behind me so that is good.  But then she talks to me when I have the headphones in oh cause my ears are covered by my Dominican blown-out hair that has been bouncing and behaving most of the week, but it got wet this morning so the back like a bird’s nest while the rest is straight and of course I have no comb or brush cause it is usually curly and kinky and I really did ignore when the one white coworker said oh your hair is good this week.  I just did a quick blank stare like did this bitch just say?!?!? And then I just said well my hair is different ALL the time so who knows what it will look like next week.  And that is true, I never know what it’s gonna look like and I’m ok with that.  I am a plethora of randomness today!!
