"There is something about yourself that you don't know. Something that you will deny even exists until it's too late to do anything about it.

It's the only reason you get up in the morning, the only reason you suffer the ****ty boss, the blood, the sweat and the tears.

This is because you want people to know how good, attractive, generous, funny, wild and clever you really are.

"Fear or revere me, but please think I'm special."

We share an addiction. We're approval junkies. We're all in it for the slap on the back and the gold watch. The "hip, hip, hoo-****ing-rah." Look at the clever boy with the badge, polishing his trophy.

Shine on, you crazy diamond. Cos we're just monkeys wrapped in suits, begging for the approval of others."

p1: CST is an hour later than MST
p2: PST is an hour behind MST
c: later != behind

p1: my race time was an hour behind the winner's
p2: i finished the race an hour later than the winner
c: later == behind

ok, now i'm really confused

That isht is going around the NC high country. I went to the doctor in Boone yesterday and they said it was a pretty big outbreak. It sucks though. Painkillers and Airbourne seems to be the best way to keep it bearable.
Lovely. Headed up there tomorrow.

When I saw the escalator in the lobby roped off, I thought of this.

Mitch Hedberg said:
An escalator can never break, it can only become stairs. "Escalator temporarily stairs, sorry for the convenience."

I just realized that today I snapped at: my boss, the chief engineer, the head of security, my mother in law, my husband's aunt, and my husband. I need to find my dog! All this chaos plus extra business at work is driving me over the edge!

It's super irritating when a person can't spell my name right in a reply when my name is clearly spelled out both in my e-mail address and in my signature.
