Quirks

Today is the first day my associate is gone on vacation. I miss him already. I find that I have become comfortable with the routine. I've adjusted myself and gotten used to most of the quirks (there are still some that I don't get) and I'm sure he had to adjust to mine. Here is a list of some of my work quirks:
  • I like things in a certain spot. Everything has a spot.
  • I want things put back in their place.
  • I don't like it when someone creates a new spot for something that already has a spot!
  • I do things in a certain order and I don't like to diviate from that order. (No I don't have OCD)
  • I can be stingey and not want anyone to touch my stuff
  • I like closure. Those who know me well have heard me say that closure is a good thing
  • I hate it when someone writes on my desk calendar
  • I want to be the first to read the newspaper because when I read it I put it back in the exact order and neatness that I got it (sometimes better)
  • I like to write with black gel pens
  • I am repulsed by the bathroom habits of the men in this office :p Have they not been taught the double flush? The temp. guy has been in the bathroom for 20 minutes, I'm frightened.
  • I don't like it when people stand behind my chair and hover over me.
  • I'm not very fond of change
  • I like large paper clips, not the small ones
  • I hate it when the decimal on my calculator is moved
  • I hate country music. I don't want to hear even one "twang about momm's dog or the train that hit it."
  • Speaking of trains, I'm so amazed that we run on the exact same schedule, everyday!

Okay, I'll stop there. I feel better now. Hurry back Louis !

Why

A few thoughts I've been pondering....... Why do people pull out at an inter section. look and see me headign their direction and wait till I'm almost at their spot to pull out in front of me. Is it more challenging to them to see how close a casr can get without getting hit? Why is it that when there are two lanes and one is ending and I need to merge the person next to me takes it as a personal challange to keep me from merging in front of him/her ? Why have I found my hand in the windshield forming the "L" (for loser) with my fingers more this month then in my entire life combined ? Why is it that when I call certain people, regardless of how long it's been since I've called or what time it is, they always act annoyed that i've bothered them? Why do I allow people to manipulate me ? Why are people so mean? Why do I post these stupid blogs that no on responds to? (Except for Cyndee)

dog kisses

This morning I was awakened by my sweet little dog. Normally when the alarm rings she goes futher under the covers. Not this morning, she was wide awake and insisted that I do the same. She was nuzzeling her head into my face and trying to give me kisses. I sucessfully blocked them. I got up and let her out back where she ran and leaped and was so happy and full of life. I thought how in the heck does someone do that first thing in the morning and finally just signed it off to her youth. Now as I sit here I started thinking about it again. She is so happy to see me at lunch and in the evening. She is content with her life! She knows she is loved and wanted . It's not so much that she is young and full of energy, but she is living. I am too! I sometimes give myself the excuse that I'm to old for certain things or it's too late. No! Jesus said, "Choose life". Things are moving along with Kevin, I see major changes yet I am guarded. You know, fool me once.
