Not Having A Good Day!

Today has been...well...let's just say...one of THOSE days! Today is definitely not the kind of day one needs after a restless night of little sleep! First, my grapes were too old to eat...looked like they started turning to raisins. They weren't so bad yesterday, but today they were awful! Then, I get to work, and as I'm walking around my car, I see this long scratch on the passenger side...like it had been keyed or something! Who would do that? So, I get to work...and one annoyance after another. I have to ask...is there a reason for using one's speaker phone on full blast with your office door open when you are the ONLY one in the room on the call? I often think that speaker phones are misused. They are great when you have more than one person in the room who needs to participate on the call...and even then, the door should be shut. I mean, it is bad enough most people talk so loudly on the phone I have to listen to their side of the conversation...I don't really care to listen to both sides of the conversation. And I just stepped out for a break, and noticed this awful smell outside my office...a poop smell. Made me want to gag! Thank goodness I have a door! Just home it doesn't find some way to venture in here. Yeah...not having a good day...not at all!

UGH! So Many Changes!!!

Every time I turn around, things are changing. First, blogger makes significant changes. I finally got used to where everything was in Blogger, and Facebook goes and does a whole revamp! Seriously? Slow down with the changes, PLEASE! What's next? Twitter?

Randomness!

Just a bunch of random thoughts today...

I want another tattoo. Those who said it could be addictive were right! I have a couple of ideas in mind...just not sure exactly what to go with or where. I'm thinking a Celtic knot on my ankle, with the words: "Athar, Mhic, agus Spioraid Naoimh" (Gaelic for Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). I want this one as an expression of my faith and my family heritage.

The 100+ degree days are back, with rain in the forecast for the first part of next week. Let's see what happens...I'm not holding my breath!

I'm feeling down today...most likely because I don't feel well, and it has been ages since I've seen a good rain storm. I am so ready for winter! However crazy, I'm also ready for my vacation in January. How is that crazy one may ask? Because the vacation is to the Caribbean. Even though, it will be mild weather while there, and a gorgeous ship which we will be on.

The Dragon And The Warrior

A dragon has descended upon us
and in it's path, total destruction.
We flee and pray for a warrior,
one who is cool and lacking frustration.

This warrior will slay the dragon
with a gentle and cool outpour.
As the warrior descends on the dragon,
the fires will rule no more.

One Scary Weekend!

The state was ravaged by fires this past holiday weekend...a couple way to close to home! Friends lost a home, many other friends were forced to evacuate. With these dry conditions, people really have to be more careful!! I find myself worrying about people doing dumb things, like tossing a cigarette butt, and losing everything as a result. We live in a neighborhood just off a highway, and all it would take is one tossed butt, and this whole neighborhood would be gone before the fire department could even get to us...especially considering that they are off helping with some of the other fires. This is scary stuff! I pray for rain, and for people to be smart!
