Here are a couple of things I've written in the last month. I wrote both of them for a very special someone in my life :)
A World Of My Own
I've fought, I've struggled,
I've won and I've lost.
This won't be the first time
My heart is the cost.
I'm giving in to you,
I'm giving up for me.
You're always in my mind...
You make me feel free.
Your touch, your eyes,
Your smile, your kiss.
Every day I think'
I could get used to this'
You are who you are,
And so far...it's so good.
You make me feel safe
Like I know I should.
In a world of my own
I smile all day,
Just thinking of you
In the best possible way
Have You...
Ever thought "that someone" was impossible to find?
Ever had a day go by with only one thought in your mind?
Ever thought you'd get so much for your heart in exchange?
Ever felt so needed that you never wanted it to change?
Ever met that special someone and cared for them so much?
Ever had something to say but didn't want to rush?
Ever held that persons hand or hugged them really tight?
Ever thought that nothing else could ever be more right?
Ever wondered if it's really as beautiful as it seems?
Ever thought your life was so much better than your dreams?
Ever wanted everything and nothing all at once?
Hope you like them.

So thankful
I think I am happier right now then I have ever been. Everything is right for me…I’m very grateful for the broken road that brought me to this point in my life. I truly feel that I am where I am meant to be.
I love my job (finally!!). 2 ½ years ago, after 5 years of retail, I finally landed a job working for a fantastic company in the accounting department. Some may look at Data Entry as a plain, boring, mundane job, but I love it, and I’m really good at it.
I like where I live, aside from some pretty crappy neighbors. I like the area, and the apartment itself, so no major complaints from me!
There are other things that play into this complete happiness, but they’re of a little more personal matter, and are better left unsaid…except this one…
Cletus – You are amazing. I would do anything for you, as I know you would do for me. I am so happy that we met. I can’t, nor do I want to imagine my life without you in it. You’ve shown me that true feelings really can be left unspoken, but still be known. I never knew that feeling so strongly about one person was possible. I don’t know where I would be right now if it wasn’t for you. I cherish every minute I spend with you, and I look forward to seeing you when we are apart. I never want to let you go and I will do whatever it takes to keep you in my life for a very long time. To quote you… “You have something of mine, and I don’t want it back.” Thank you, for everything.

What a weekend...
Wow. That's about all I can say. I had the absolute best weekend...and it's all thanks to Cletus and his peeps!! Especially when I finally beat him bowling ::giggle:: Yes, that's right...I beat him fair and square! There were witnesses...
You're right Cletus, they keep getting better and better...but I don't know how we're going to top this one!

Peanuts Guidelines
Ok…I’ve about had it…there are a few things that will get you on, or close to being on my shitlist real fast…
1) Don’t fuckin eavesdrop on my conversations.
2) If someone asks me for help, they’re asking me, not you…ME. Stay the fuck out.
3) Don’t interrupt me.
4) If I want your opinion, I’ll ask you for it, otherwise keep it to yourself.
5) I don’t want a 30 min explanation for a yes or no answer.
6) Don’t do my shit for me unless I ask for your help.
I can be your best friend, or your worst enemy…you decide.

3 more days...
This past weekend was so much fun. Didn't really do much of anything, but it was fantastic. Did a little running, watched some fantastic Hockey action, played some cards, ate some yummy bbq chicken and Cletus and I started our own game heheheeee I WILL win next time!!!
This weekend will be just as good, if not better. I am sure of it!
I'm so bored right now...I'm surprised I don't have a billion paper cuts. I've been through 6 lateral file drawers full of files...oh well...easy money right?

People
I don't get it...maybe I was just raised well, but I can't understand why people can be so mean and inconsiderate.
For example:
If you live in an apartment, common knowledge would tell you to not blast your tv/radio, or that the people below you can hear you running rampant at all hours of the day or night. Or that singing (screaming/yelling/whatever) at 3 a.m. is not very polite. Most people don't want to hear that shit! Especially if they have to be up in the next few hours. C'mon!
People who start rumors, or talk behind your back are another thing. I've dealt with this first hand in a few separate instances. I don't like it, I don't do it. I used to, but it cost me a very good friend because she misinterpreted what I said directly to her as me trying to start shit about her. I told her as a friend that people were saying mean things, and she felt like I was attacking her. Well, I wasn't, and I'm very sorry to her for that. I would love to be able to keep in touch with her as the friends we started out being, but that will probably never happen. Oh well. Life goes on. People that talk about me however, need to just say it to my face. I can handle it better that way.
Politeness and general courtesy seems to have been stripped from most people in the country. I don't know why, but kids are more rude these days then when I was young. Believe me, my kids are going to be raised with the same morals and respect that I was. My parents did a fantastic job with me and my siblings, and I will be very happy if my kids turn out even half as good as we all did!!
Anyhoo...I gotta get back to work. Lunch is over.

The countdown is on!
Ok, some of you know this, some of you don't...
I'm going to Ireland! Yay! I can't wait. I'm soooo excited!!! 5 months to go, and I'll be spending a whole week overseas. I've only been out of the country once - not counting Canada, they don't count anyways - but that was Cancun in January of this year. It was so fun, gorgeous weather, lots of fun, lots of beer, a few Margaritas, couple road trips, and fun people. I just can't wait to head to Ireland to check out some of my family history!
Stay tuned for updates!

ok ok...
So I'm weak...I gave in...what can I say!
Stop back every once in a while. Check out my writings, complaints, all the crap I feel like writing. If you don't like it...not my problem! Ha! There will be poetry and probably lots of it. Maybe some stories, but probably mostly random ramblings.
