I am blue.
I think it's a combination of things, several having to do with money and housing, but I also would like to blame my co-worker(s).
Work: I think my base line personality is pretty happy and pretty mellow. I can roll with your verbal punches, and if you throw one too many at me, I'll smack you back.
What stresses me out to no end, is having to listen to you throw them at someone else. Someone who is too classy (and bound by certain labor laws and working conditions) to slap the ever-loving shit out of you, even in a verbal sense. Even though she could make you cry and you would deserve every bit of it. I know it's not worth the drama to stir shit up. It will all be over soon. But you ruin every goddamned day that I have to sit and listen to you spew your bile. Have you EVER focused on the positive things in your life? EVER?
ahem.
I would like my man, my partner, my one and only, to help me around the house. I am tired of being the only one who does dishes. That's why they aren't done. Because I am tired. Not sleepy, TIRED.
I adore babies. I could eat them with a spoon. I loved every single second of being pregnant. I would LOVE to have another one. But we cannot afford it. Can.Not.Afford. We are a couple of bounced checks away from being on the Government dole, and I can't do it. If I won the lottery I'd be pregnant yesterday. Sigh.
I want the TWO books I have started to POOF! appear in front of me. I don't WANT to start a third. I want my very good books to come back to me. Where in the hell did I put them? Why don't I have any clue here?
Um , crazy ass recycle man? SHUUUT UP. It's FREE, asshat. Stop talking to me.
Sensitive new age guy ex husband who cannot earn a living because you insist on chasing your dream? Grow the fuck up.
Crappy mothers who have bred and then mistreated girls who turned into amazing women without any help from your sorry asses? Shut up and leave them alone--you do not deserve your incredible daughters.
Here is my list of demands:
Be nice. Even to the person helping you at wally world, even if they seem to have a family tree with only one branch. Be nice.
Be considerate. Think about the other person. Whether that's me or someody else.
Be patient. Are you really so important that you can't wait three seconds more?
Less is more. You don't need more stuff, you need to pay more attention to what's in front of you.
Shut up. Listen. No, REALLY listen.
bleah. This has been bitchy moments with Jennifer. Your usual psychotically chipper (hmm, that's probably more real life Jen than Blog Jen) girl will be back shortly.

On a completely unrelated note?
My throbbing blog-crush on Greg Beck is only deepened by his confession about poetry. He needs (other)Jen's Tuesday Work Sucks Haikus.
