Do unto others, as you would have them do unto you. (Matthew 7:12)

Addendum:

When others do unto you as you have done unto them and you don’t like it, don’t complain or blame others, as it is the consequence of your own actions.

It’s time for that index finger to bust a bitch.

A dear friend of mine sent me a link to a blog that belongs to someone we used to know and told me a couple of their posts were eerily similar to mine. Hmm… I hear that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but now that I got your attention:

& look for your own words amongst those letters while you’re at it.

jk… l really don’t care, just deeply flattered that you still do.

asking if you’ll spend the rest of your life with them…

(yes)

Do you ever have one of those days when you feel like the WHOLE universe is out to delay your day? Every which way you turn, the cashier is lagging, the driver in the car in front of you is driving slow, the light turns yellow/red as soon as you approach the intersection, the pedestrian couldn’t take any longer crossing the street and it starts to rain with no umbrella at hand.

Today was one of those days for me and to top it off I was late for work.

As I was approaching my second to last errand before heading into the office, I was supremely annoyed that I had been delayed yet again by Home Depot’s shitty key duplicating services. I headed into K-Town (where I should have gone in the first place) to get my keys copied. 12 keys and $36 later, I was done and all I needed to do was get into my car to go to work to start my “real” day.

I got to the elevator to reach my floor of the parking structure and I see this little old man with a shiny bald head approach me with a smile. The train of thought running through my mind at that moment was “don’t look at me, don’t talk to me, don’t make eye contact” but sure enough I looked into his eyes and I smiled back. He politely asked me which floor I had parked as we made small talk. He followed me out of the elevator and walked me to my car. His kind gesture through our short encounter together instantly brightened up my day.

I believe I was delayed all morning to meet this little old man with a shiny bald head. He reminded me that a kind gesture however small has the ability to lift spirits and bring happiness.

saving the last slice of a rocky road caramel apple for him.

and when he says she can have it.

that’s love.

go ahead, have a slice.

(and stop complaining)

This is what I call D’s House of Lunch. It’s big and insulated, has the capacity to hold at least 2 meals and it’s great for picnics on the beach. D uses it for his packed snacks and lunches during the week.

Thanks to Mr. Columbus for “discovering” America, D had the day off of work today, but not his House of Lunch! He decided to pack me a variety of snacks to keep me happy throughout the day. (insert “awwww” here)

When my incompetent boss asked me why I was leaving the company, this is what I felt like saying:

But… I’m a classy kat. I only say those things to people in my head.

Why do some people take their “friendships” on Facebook so seriously?

Isn’t it more important to know someone is a good, loyal friend IRL (in real life)?

I have a true and funny story to share about this topic:

So, I have a friend who received a friend request from a girl she wasn’t friends with in HS. Not understanding why she would want to befriend her on a social networking site after over a decade of continuing to not speak to each other, she ignored the request. A couple days later my friend gets a PM (private message) in her inbox from this girl saying, “If I could take back my friend request, I would”  The dumbest part of that statement was that you CAN cancel requests. Stupid people never cease to amuse.

Needless to say, we all had a good laugh about this.

But seriously…
