What's YOUR problem???

I never said anything of the sort, gawd Euan, I thought you were more literate than that. ie READ WHAT I SAY. I just wanted some time on top before you jump in and post over me! (You know how I like to be on top. Well perhaps not from personal experience. Well perhaps you didn't know it at all. You know now.) Yeesh. You're such a blog whore. I want the glory too!!!

Now stop posting mean things and saying I have mundane/unimportant issues and need to feel wanted...you're the one who is asking for my attention here captain irony! People I know read this blog you know, and although they already know I'm crazy, I wouldn't want to give them further proof!

I also got a shitload of work dumped on me, only about 20x my regular work load, so I don't have time to chat at work anymore, at least not until I get this caught up. So eat it.

On a completely different note, what's with people taking me seriously when I ask them if they like stuff...Euan, if I said to you, "So...do you like stuff?" what would you say? Would you simply write back "stuff?" with a confused puppy dog expression on your face? I think not!

ARRRRGH

Euan, stop posting over top of me right away!! You aggravating serious-song ruining person!!

I found their cd along with a whole bunch of other old cd's the other day. Nothing I would listen to now but I liked the lyrics of that song and felt like I related to them.

Lifehouse- Trying

Could you let down your hair
Be transparent for awhile, just a little while
To see if you're human after all

Honesty is a hard attribute to find
When we all want to seem like
We've got it all figured out


Well let me be the first to say that I don't have a clue
I don't have all the answers
Ain't gonna pretend like I do

Just trying
To find my way
Trying
To find my way the best I know how

Well I haven't memorized all of the cute things to say
But I'm working on it
Maybe I'll master this art form someday

If I quote all the lines off the top of my head
Would you believe
That I fully understand all these things I've read

I'm just trying
To find my way
Trying
To find my way
Trying
To find my way the best that I know how

Well I haven't got it all figured out quite yet but
Even if it takes my whole life to get to where I need to be
And if I should fall to the bottom of the end
I'll be one step back to you, and

I'm trying to find my way
Trying to find my way
I'm trying to find my way
Trying to find my way...

Happy Hallmark Holiday

Hey, I'm back. So I've been like, starving and beaten up in a ditch somewhere...at least someone noticed I was missing. But Euan I'm disappointed you did not call the proper authorities. Luckily some malibu and coke nursed me back to health in no time.

So I sit here at the same place I sat a year ago today. Doing work, feeling slightly bitter. But only because it's tradition. Most of me is pretty happy actually...I'm content in my singleness and am even thinking about taking myself out to dinner tonight. Narcisistic? Nah...I figure you gotta be happy with yourself before you can be with someone else. Self love first! So I'm going to try to get to know myself...buy me a drink...batt my eyelashes...make witty banter...buy myself some roses...perhaps sign them from a secret admirer...ok now I'm depressing myself for real.

My original point I meant to make is, Valentine's Day is overrated. Who wants a day that's set aside to love somebody??? Ok ok hear me out...shouldn't EVERY DAY be valentine's day?? Shouldn't we buy our loved ones chocolate and nice things because we love them, not because some ancient "holiday" tells us we should? And yet, these arguments are very typical of a single person on valentine's day...or I guess someone who is in a relationship that doesn't want to celebrate valentine's day...

Maybe it is good to set a day aside to show somebody you love them. After all, isn't that what a holiday is about? We have Christmas (supposedly) for celebrating the birth of Christ. Canada day for celebrating the birth of Canada. Victoria Day as an excuse to get drunk and have a day off of work. But when it comes to love you should let the person know you love them everyday....it would be like having a day to celebrate wearing silly socks, but how special is it if you wear silly socks every day?

All this debating just makes me dislike valentine's day even more. However, there are some good things that come of it. ie the human resources department bringing in pie for us. I like pie.
