Blablableebloo.

Ill give you a blog!
Here goes.

His name is Michael, id like to say hes a "significant" other but right now that word is not in my vocabulary. Mike wants me to "blog" about him, he should know by now I don't like being told to do something, and especially when hes telling me to blog about him and say all these nice things just to boost his ego. I'm annoyed.
Sure I have nice things to say about him, but right now were not getting along.. Its not that I don't want us to get along, I don't like arguing, but like Ive said before.. my fuse is only so long! I cant help it, its like word vomit, it comes up and out and I cant stop myself from being so bratty. I cant not be a smart ass, or sarcastic, I cant help it!! I know sometimes this can hurt his feelings and I do feel bad, I don't want to always be this mean vicious person. I'm really nice!

Mike is someone I never saw myself getting involved with, we hung out, had things in common and I really loved his company, then I guess we just grew on each other. There is nothing bad I could say about Mike, sure everyone has little things about them that get under your skin, but Mike is sweet, he generally cares about me and always wants to be there. Mike is someone I should be grateful to have in my life no matter what happens between us, and I don't give him the credit he deserves. I know relationships are hard for everyone, some people handle them better than others, and i shouldn't expect him to know exactly how to react to me. I hope things can get better, and we can get along. I just want him to know that I do care about him, and appreciate everything hes done and does for me. ;)


P.S
DM asked what the difference between decline and over limit was today (after the credit card was over limit, then charged again and said decline). AHHH.

J.O.B part 2.

Day is almost over.
FYI
I don't speak Spanish.
When you say someone doesn't speak English very well, but good enough, pretty much they don't understand a damn thing I'm saying.
Thanks.

J.O.B= S.O.B's.



Patience is not a virtue I have. My fuse is so short sometimes I'm like a firework ready to explode in your hands! I apologize to everyone that has seen this side of me, but I get so easily annoyed that anything could set me off! I guess Ive always been this way, unless medicated! haha But seriously, I just have this thing with people asking the most ridiculous obvious self answered questions! Lately, that's what gets me. We've all been there, and for anyone that has to work with people and answer questions you know how I feel!

Let me just tell you a little about my job, since its where I'm at Monday thru Friday and every other Saturday, including today, FYI its about 8:30 am.

So here at the good Ol' MOA(abbreviated for full company name) We have a lovely Employee, well we would call him a Director, or Marketer (DM) Funny cuz those are his initials.I like to say he works on the outside, meaning while im cozy and safe in my (pause.. hes coming up here).. AHHH. Back to where I was.. cozy and safe in my locked office with big glass window, hes on the outside sitting in one of the cubicles which I'm sure he calls "his office."

So sure enough bright and early he comes up to the window, puts his stupid little mouth up to the window and tells me he has a card in pending to be charged for the remainder amount. OK.. So i get up, get the paper work, log into the account, put in all the info and press charge! Hmmm it comes back saying "Over limit."

Hopefully most of you are not confused as to what this means.. but Ill explain just so everyone is on the same freakin page! (wheres DM so I can explain this!) Over limit would most likely mean that you have a spending limit, therefor the amount you charged was over the "limit" or you probably just don't have money in your bank, point blank! The word it self is pretty self explanatory.. Over The Limit people!!

Ahhh. OK. So of course DM has wandered is little butt back to his cube.. so I venture off with the paper to find him. He sees me coming and has that dumbfounded look on his face already! I explain, "the card was over limit for the $300.00" He looks at me and says "over limit, how? We charged $300.00 yesterday!"

Right then I would love to explain how I'm not the bank, and how the hell should I know the details of this mans credit card spending, and his bank, and how my computer does not magically give me a list of reasons as to why the card declined!! AHHH. He literally looked at me with this angry confused look, like how could I do this to him!

So remember back when I was interrupted? Well cute little DM waddled his way up to the window and asked this " So you charged the card for $300.00 dollars and it said over limit?"

I wish I could paint you a picture of his dumbfounded face that he always makes, and even tho he probably really only stands there and does this face at you for a few seconds, it seems like an eternity and you sit there staring back at him thinking what else could I possibly say to you old man!! Of course I nicely reply to him "ya".

AHHH. Are we serious right now?! Maybe some of you are confused as to why I would be annoyed by this at 8:30 am on a Sat, but I will start to post more DM story's, and you too will start to feel my pain!

I failed to mention that right before I charged the card for him we had this conversation:


DM: Who is covering reception?


ME:I don't know.


DM: Wheres M, is she not here anymore?


ME: No she no longer works here.


DM: Well there is no one up there, what are they gunna do, is it just J working morning then night then coming in again!" (he seemed so concerned for J)


ME: We cover the front when we can, but its only me working til 1pm today, and unless they have called someone to cover the front I don't know, sorry!"


Dont get me wrong, DM is a sweet old man at times, I'm sure he means well, but sometimes its like that little kid that asks "but why?" to everything. There is only so much I can handle!

Happy Saturday!

Move over.

I like to believe that Ex's can be friends, some easier than others. Maybe its just the fact that sometimes I cant let go, even when it seems as if Ive "let go" I still like to have a relationship with people that were such a big part in my life. Take my Ex from 5 years ago! We will call him Alfred. Alfred and me met when I had just turned 16, shortly later we were "going out" that lasted a few weeks, we both went to different schools, I just got to that age where my parents were letting me date, and now I had all these fun school dances to go too! So, I broke it off. We kept in touch, we had some mutual friends, and we saw each other from time to time. We fought and it was always this back and forth thing about getting back together, eventually a couple years later we did. We then dated for 2 1/2 years! Things just didn't work out, we were young, we fought, we were immature, we worked together, shared one car, and we both had different ideas as to where out relationship was going. At 19 your really not sure where your going at all. I broke things off, and immediately started dating someone else. I wouldn't say I regret it, but I wouldn't say it was the best choice. We both had a really hard time with the break up, Alfred and I chose to deal with it in different ways, and still to this day I feel bad about how I handled it at times. We went back to hanging out, trying to be "normal" but things just were not the same, someone always got hurt. So we would go our separate ways for a while, ignore each other and try and move on with our lives. I think it just got to that point where neither of us were going to walk away for good, so after some learning about ourselves, dealing with some life experiences and changes, I think we just learned how to still be best friends without the added drama.
I'm sure deep down inside we both still care about each other deeply, we know each other inside and out, and I'm sure we would be there for one another if we needed to be. We both have dated, been in relationships, and asked each other about them from time to time. But this time is different.
Me and Alfred haven't really talked that frequently, there has been a few messages online, but that's been about it. Recently we started talking and its been casual conversation, one day Alfred begins to tell me about this girl he met, how its a familiar happiness and he really likes her. Surprised at how he is going on and on to me about her, I think hmmm he must really like this girl. Of course I turn my defense on and ask my normal questions (Alfred goes after some winners sometimes.. no offense!) haha. I find out shes only 19, and I'm already a little skeptical.. but she goes to school with him, hmm at least shes got that going for her. He tells me her name and says there is a picture of her on facebook. I take a gander, and I'm surprised, this girl is quite cute, and i don't feel like I'm looking at soft porn. ahh releif. Shes this cute little innocent looking blonde, kinda like me! hahaha.
A week goes by and I get a call from Alfred, he says hes going to meet her family, and bla bla and that there going to have the DTR talk (determine the relationship) All i can say is Precious. So long story short, he calls me today and tells me it went great, ohh and surprise her mom does hair too, just like my mom.. weird. haha and that its "Official" he begins to tell me how good it feels and that he didnt feel like it was forced like his other random relationships, haha and then he tells me he wants me to meet her. WHOA.
He told me he told her about me, and about the breakup, but how were really good friends and how he thinks she will like me. He asks how I feel about meeting her. Of course i say I will, if that's what he wants, but to make it less awkward i tell him we can do a double date, Ive told him a little about Mike, and hes always so eager to know how that's going with me, and sometimes Mike freakishly reminds me of him, well he annoys me about the same as Alfred did. hahaha.
So I guess I will be having a double date with my Ex, not just someone I dated, but my first love, my first REAL relationship, the first person I ever got to know, the person who's heart I broke. Now I get to sit and watch him be goo goo ga ga with some well put together girl, who will probably laugh at all his jokes and rest her head on his shoulder and he'll do things and say things that I once thought were cute.
I don't know if this is going to be more awkward for me, or for Mike. haha.
Its not that I don't want Alfred to be happy, because I do. Ive seen him through his ups and downs, Ive seen him at his worst. I'm glad that he has progressed so much. I know I'm talking like I got invited to his wedding or something, but its still weird to me! I'm glad that he wants my approval, or support and I'm glad hes been honest with her, and glad that we can still have a friendship. I'm happy with the way things are, but I guess its still that little stab, like Ouch.. your really not thinking about me! haha. Ohh. All I can say is at least she doesn't have illegitimate children shes trying to pass off as his, or the nic-name RED.

I am looking for someone to dress up like a Clown and hang out with me. I would cook you diner – or we could BBQ something. I’m interested in making my neighbor lady wonder. I have already had a man in a panda costume last month – and also had a heard of sheep come in for the day to cut the grass. (sheep do a good job by the way). A clown would be something.Maybe you could bring some balloons – or make balloon animals to hang in my tree. I’d like to have this done some evening between 6pm and dark. The longer you can stay the better (like if you could stay for the whole 3 hours). Do you have any tricks you could do?Like I said – I could cook diner and get you drunk – I’d even be willing to pay your cab fare to and from. I don’t have much to offer – and my neighbor lady is driving me nuts – so I want to drive her nuts. If you had a Mime friend – it would be cool to see you two chase each other around the yard or do relay races while I time you.
Let me know your thoughts – open to Men and Women Clowns.
