Day 7

This day is killing me. I am all dressed up cute today and I am just sitting here, staring at my Gmail inbox ticker- waiting for it to say "5". It has been on 4 all morning, I rec'd an e-mail from a local business about an event this Saturday but I deleted in right away. I am saving the 5 spot for a really good one!

The 4 unread emails are YouTube music links, which I cant play at work.

Oh! The sort of cute hippie guy who works at the mountain travel place next door just walked by! He is taking his lunch pretty early.

If I get a 5th email while I am writing this, I will report it. If I get a text, I will report that as well.

I spent all morning cruising craigslist for work, what a horrid woeful gut wringing activity that is!!!!! I applied for one: a substitute teachers aid in Orinda, for special needs kids. Thinking Big!
Being self depreciating and sarcastic is sooooo 90's. I just don't know what to replace it with. Brutal Honesty? Confidence!? I hear the kids these days ( the ones in their 20's), are brimming with clickety clackety confidence. You know all that self help crap we heard in the 90's: "Don't take no for answer", "Think outside the box", "Act now and think later!", and on and on. . . well THEY are embodying those mantras like it were as natural as eating grapes! Doggone it.

The guy from next door walked by again, he is not really my type.

I am so brain dead here that when the phone rings I have to pause with the headset at my ear as I stare off into space and try to recall the name of the company. I totally know it, but when I pick up the phone I go blank for a moment. Hopefully the people on the other end of the line just think the phone has to travel a long way from the cradle to the side of my head.

This business guy from the other office next door just walked by and said into his bluetooth" I have a raging headache today". It was funny. Raging. I get migraines and regular old headaches from time to time and I don't think I have never called them raging.
Or killer.
Or pounding.

It's 12:09, and I should try and put off taking my lunch break for as long as possible.

I just deleted like 6 really lame sentences. Guess I am done.

In case I reread this and come to the conclusion that I am a whiner with no ability to "make things happen!", I will add one thing.

You are the cutest, nicest, most interesting, most honest and most awesome person in the world!

* And just for the record, I am aware that we are in the middle of an "Economic Crisis the Likes of The Great Depression", and that a " Historical Presidential Election" is taking place.

No 5th email. whatever.
