I Miss You, Shut Up

without comments

How do I tell you that I miss you without knowing whether or not you’ve missed me too?

If you don’t reciprocate the feeling, I’d be sad that you haven’t noticed my absence.

If you told me that you missed me just as much,  I’d be sad that we’ve drifted so far from where we used to be…

So for now, I miss you, shut up.

City Dog

without comments

When Rambo first came to live with us, he got distracted by all the people, buses and cars that would go whizzing by as he was trying to take his own “whiz”. There was no grass and the tree trunks had metal grates. He was confused and constipated to say the least as he couldn’t figure out where to poop for the first couple of days.

Rambo has slowly evolved into a city dog and I can see how well he’s adjusted to the move from the land of suburbia.

This morning was perfect example. I took Rambo to take his morning dump in the alley behind our building. He found his target and proceeded to do the squat and twirl. As his little poo-dance was going on, a taxi drove up and Rambo looked up for a second and continued his ritual. I love seeing his new Rambo-tude, it reassures me that I made the right decision in bringing a country dog into the city.

Opportunists

without comments

opportunists: plural of op·por·tun·ist

Noun:
A person who exploits circumstances to gain immediate advantage rather than being guided by principles or plans.

I used to think that this kind of behavior was “selfish” but now I know the correct word and I still don’t like it.

If I Were a Fruit….

without comments

I’d be a pomegranate.

Tough skinned, sweet and juicy yet tart and bitter. Cut or handled the wrong way, the fruit easily bleeds while staining your clean white shirt forever. Each seed is multi-faceted to represent my many different personalities. Pomegranates are a great compliment to many foods but just as delicious by itself.

What fruit would YOU be and WHY?

The Things People Say

without comments

I don’t know what’s worse:

Someone who promises the world but eventually disappoints after they fail to deliver, or someone who says things that make you feel bad without realizing it.

If I had to choose, I’d say the first person is worse. But the second one is just dumb, which sucks too.

Whatever, everyone’s an asshole.

No Offense

But, I really don’t think I should be taking marital advice from someone who’s been… never mind, I’m classier than that.

Addendum

without comments

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.

Copy Kat

without comments

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.

Delays and Kind Gestures

without comments

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.
