Commercials

back street boys and martin short???!!!!  Old Navy has just hit the limit.   I love Martin Short and for a time I think I enjoyed the back street boys, but when you couple them all together...it just seems like my past desperately trying to pull me back.

Tip?

When do i leave or offer a tip? Obviously service in a resturant or bar but mainly because i know that wages are dependent on tips; standard for me is usually 15% for service and an extra 5 for personality...
That being said, when I go to a place like starbucks or if I drive thru i do not typically tip a given amount or at all unless i happen to have cash or change (which kind of sucks on me because so many baristas these days have such personality!).
Ok, so what started this is that i am getting a delivery today (a service that i have paid for) and i am wondering what to tip if anything? I don't really have the means to "over-tip" but if i should tip then i should tip.

a day off

so i have a day off and i take advantage of it by doing menial tasks such as doctors appointments, grocery store and cleaning around the house otherwise bored. why is it that when i am not at work i can not think of a single thing to do on my own, yet when i am at work i can make lists of things i need/want to be doing other than work?

put away

the lights came off the tree

the ornaments are wrapped and put away

and the tree is boxed and shelved.

i am sad for this time of year to end but i am oh soo ready for this year to begin anew.


Sometimes the Elephant in the room doesn't have the longest memory

My best man is really the smartest and most poiniant person I know. After a fun evening with family I was lamenting not spending more time with them. I think when I was younger I was "the youngest" and was not as "cool" as I thought my siblings were and all I wanted was to be like them.


Looking at it now, I wonder what kind of couple my mom and dad must have been. There is not a time i can look back on and say that they looked as if they simply enjoyed each other or their company. I cant really even remember them together. Was there ever a time when my mother was happy? What was she like when she let loose and how did she win my dad?

ramblings.

so at stop lights with three lanes and two turn lanes: why wouldnt one turn lane light blink

it puts the lotion on my hand and makes it stop hurtning. babies are beautiful and couples working together is neat. seeing famlies reconnect is warm, and reconnecting is comforting but frustrating.

remember to let family members know how much you appreciate them.

blinker.


everyone is someone.

a start....since everyone starts somwhere and i am someone...this must be where i start.



be thankful to the best man because he compliments you and makes you feel better about yourself without even knowing he is making a difference.

letting the part create itself.


all of my life i have been concerned with living in the now and not even considering the future.

and now that my future is happening now i am scared because now i want to look at my future. and i am scared because i have lived so much in the now i have not left anything for my future and my future is with my best man. i feel like i have let him down and i don't want to feel like that. also i don't know how to be a friend, not being able to follow through. i don't want to be alone when brad is not around. i need to create friendship, companionship, community when my best man is doing his own thing so that i am not alone if i don't want to be.



mom....its not moms fault, she was living more in her now just trying to get by day to day and that ment something had to fall through the cracks. and sure she was selfish, because she was looking to make herself happy (who dosent want to be happy) it was just that she had two kids to look after and it did not fit into her trying to make herself happy.


a vocal brainstorm. to see what i am saying. glen beck? alway associated work with getting out of the house. find something to do to get out of the house....voulenteering? what? where?

gray and gloomy driving to houston, leaving a beautiful austin...i want to feel something more than the weather around me when i am going somewhere...always being able to see the silver lining, and a way to tell myself that this too shall pass and even though i can't necessarally see the silver lining at the moment but to know that it is there.


talk it out.


restroom locator app. visit a lot of toilets.

?...*eyeroll* yes I work here

In the age of blue tooth, I can almost understand why I get the question "do you work here?'...but I have gone the extra mile of wearing a logo tee-shirt (front and back) a walkie-talkie, an apron and I am usually carrying some sort of price scanning device...WTW...Yes I work here.
