It's refreshing.

It happens every single time I post on here, I can't figure out how to start this so I ramble on until I say something that hits a nerve and then I go from there. I'm sitting here at work and the window behind me is open. There is a nice breeze going and with every whoosh of the wind I get assaulted by the smells of spring. It really is a happy time of year, there's a squirrel that keeps hopping through the grass, oblivious to me sitting here watching him as he goes about his merry way. Sitting here watching him I realize that I'm jealous of said squirrel. I'm sure the most important thing to him is gathering his food for the winter. He doesn't have to worry about momma squirrel trying to act like she's a young squirrel, he doesn't have to worry about brother squirrel showing up at his tree trunk so drunk he can't even think a straight line. Nope, all he does is look for food to stash in his tree trunk and wait for winter to come. Lucky little squirrel.

Remember Bert, the step-dad-to-be from Sesame Street? Well I finally met him, not sure if I like him, but I met him. I'm not sure he knows how to handle my brother and I. We've got this weird sense of humor that only we understand and I don't think he has any clue as to how to decode it. To be honest we are a step-parents nightmare, we're like those preppy stuck up kids in high school, the group that no one can get into unless the meet all the criteria. But no one ever will, so we'll continue to be just the two of us as we skip through each day. I often feel like my mother thinks of us as a mistake and she almost confirmed it the other day when she said that she was just a child when she had us. She's also known for saying that kids should have kids. So is she contradicting herself or is she calling us mistakes? I'm lost and I don't feel like asking for directions to her end of Crazytown.

Degrading or is it just a term?

I've been sitting here for a good half hour trying to find a way to make this witty and worth reading. I've just realized that I don't care if it is witty or worth reading. So here I go.

Work sucks lately. See I work for an internet company and we are doing a switch to different email servers. Now that doesn't sound so bad does it? Well the tens of thousands of our customers thought otherwise. Who would think that a simple email change would cause such a big ruckus. I mean seriously, why is it so horrible that you have to call tech support and walk through change 5 settings. That's it. Should have been as simple as ripping off a band-aid, just a little tug, some minor pain and all is well. But no, people have to call in and call me a liar, a thief (still don't understand that one), claimed that I was bogus, and literally screamed that we had totally screwed up their email. I've also had someone get into a fight with me over a setting that was clearly on the screen. He then exclaimed that I had read it wrong. I guess spelling it multiple times wasn't good enough. *sigh* Now I can handle the screaming, the yelling, and the accusing but there is one thing that has been getting under my skin. It's just one simple phrase:

"you people"

That's it. Just that one little phrase has been pissing me off to no extent. First off I've never even heard of that classification. I've heard person and people but never a you people. What the heck is it? Is it singular or plural? It must be degrading because I've never heard it used in a good way. It's always "you people stole money out of my account" or "you people are always screwing things up." So I guess what I would really like to know is what is a you people? Any ideas?

Choke back the tears

So here is a poem I wrote. I would GREATLY appreciate it if you would tell me what you think of it. This is all I'm going to post today.


She turns her head,

And chokes back the tears.

You say you have always been there

Throughout the many years.

You continue to go on this common rant of yours,

But yadda, yadda, yadda is all she hears.


You have attended every concert, game, & parade.

You have helped at every show.

But have you thought that maybe she wasn't talking

About the many places you go?

Ever imagine that she wanted to just sit and talk

About your dreams and fears, about life and what you know.


She sits there, tuning you out,

Waiting until the poor me shit ends.

You are back at the part,

Where you're parents were never there, you only had friends.

You never seem to notice that she has fears,

You only give yours, and comfort this does not lend.


She has spent nineteen years

Waiting and hoping that one day you'll see.

Maybe one day you see just how lost

And lonesome she may be.

You've believed the lies as easily as the rest,

See, her smile is the key.


No one can imagine such a smile

Coming from one that is crying inside.

No one saw the pain in her eyes,

When she learned her best friend died.

She left and no one came after her,

And that day, alone in the rain, she cried.


Her mistakes are plentiful,

Her regrets are many.

She wonders if she hadn't dated that boy,

If she'd have as many problems, if any.


So as you come to the end of this rant,

Watch as she chokes back the tears.

See the pain in her eyes,

As she regrets expressing her fears.

She'll handle this alone from now on,

She'll deal with the pain, the stares, the leers.

She's stronger then ever now,

So don't worry, she no longer needs you dear.


One day you'll see the pain

That's caused this common complaint.

One day she'll sit with her daughter,

And your influence their conversation will not taint.

She'll tell of her mother too worried about herself,

Of how pretty pictures her words never did paint.

So watch the pain vanish

From these tears stained eyes.

There is pain there,

That you will never understand, that you cannot deny.

Some of the pain is hidden on purpose,

But there is some there because you believed the lie.

The lie of a smile, a lie you should have seen through,

But you never wanted to look her deep into the eyes.


She is screaming inside, but

She would be better off speaking to the deaf.

And so this shall end,

For she is done wasting her breath.

She has already lost all hope,

And it hurts more than a death.

Currently Listening: Right Now (Na Na Na)

Catch Me

So how is everyone? I'm doing well I suppose. I just got off a nice dance with a kidney infection. Do not go to that one doctor, I think I would get better medical advice from a dead chicken. You're laughing, I'm not. I am so dead serious. So I spent Tuesday night and Friday night at the hospital, missed three days of work and took a medication that turned my pee orange. Which I thought was totally cool. Apparently I am the only one. oh well. So then my best friend got beat up by her ex boyfriend about a week ago and now she has been having really bad spasm attacks. After literally fighting with her and forcing her into the car, I drive her to the ER. Now guess which doctor was on call? That's right, dumber-then-a-chicken-dude. Idiot. Turns out she just has bruising and since she "has to breathe" (direct quote from the doctor) it can't heal quickly. So that's been my week.
Ugh if that guy can be a doctor I'm so in the wrong profession.

Currently Watching: Rent (Widescreen Two-Disc Special Edition)

No day but today

Alrighty. So it's been a few days and I'm feeling xanga withdrawal, called the doctor and he said to immediately login and blog about what is going on. So I'm obeying orders. So I got my first comment *dances* that makes me want to blog everyday until my fingers fall off. Ok so maybe not.

So the newest drama in my life? Eh, I don't really feel like talking about it. haha. I'm tired of complaing, it makes me sound like a whiner. Which I'm not really, I just started this at a really bad time in my life. So anyway, this one is going to be very short.

So anyway, the boyfriend is doing well. I had a really bad day on Saturday but I got a raise at work, so that helped to balance things out. I finally got to watch RENT, again. haha. Then I made some banners in photoshop. I love that program, seriously. It makes my tummy grin. So I haven't really been up to much and I don't really have much to put in here.

I just want to say that RENT has a point, seriously. There really is no day but today. Because you never know when today could be your last  day. So from here on out I'm not dealing with this petty drama. I'm gonna be bigger than this. It's going to be hard and I'm probably going to fail a lot but I'll make it. For goodness sake I'm not giving up, I'm a fighter darnit.

Ok so I don't really have much else to say. I'm just living for today
