tidbits

So I’m in a slump, but I’ll leave you with some profound sayings I hold close to my heart.  Mostly because the person who shared them with me is as special as they come.

“I don’t want you to change, I want you to learn”

“Take a quote you like, like the ones on the bottom of your emails, and change it around to fit you”

“If we thought about everything we said before we said it, after awhile it would be habit and we wouldn’t say things we didn’t mean”

of course

the universe would have no other way…

got an email from my realtor.  the bank is trying to keep the deposit money from the house that fell through.  their excuse?  the denial letter took too long?!  WTF?  Seriously?

No idea what to do now…the decision isn’t final yet but i’m worried.

friday-TGIF!!!

by rialeilani

I got nothing good to write about.  Life is overwhelming with good and bad, but I’m taking a break from reality and “running away” with a friend for an overnight trip.  My hopes are that it will be smoke filled.  I’ll leave that open to interpretation.

Have a great weekend!

final thoughts

26-06-2008 by rialeilani

…for the day

  • mulch smells like ass
  • i can’t behave myself at work sometimes and I end up laying on the floor taking a picture of myself with my phone, while MA encourages the behavior
  • i also wedge myself between the fake wall and conference room wall and peak out at KM
  • i sit cross legged in my chair with my shoes off and twirl my chair back and forth
  • i laugh and my heart feels lighter

oops meant to post this last night, i hate when i do that

fairy name

25-06-2008 by rialeilani

I saw this over at Little Miss Firefly and thought it was interesting.  It would be fun to be a fairy for a day and get to flutter around.  Also would love to live in quiet meadows :)   What’s your fairy name?

photo from istockphoto.com

Your fairy is called Columbine Goblintree
She is a bringer of riches and wealth.
She lives in mushroom fields and quiet meadows.
She is only seen when the first leaves fall from the trees.
She wears lilac and purple like columbine flowers. She has gentle green wings like a butterfly.

memo to my new boss

24-06-2008 by rialeilani

Dear My Newest Superior,

I have a meeting with you at 3pm this afternoon to discuss my role in this office.  Let’s just make sure we are on the same page.  I was hired as an Administrative Assistant, but those duties take up less than 10% of my time.  Here is what you should expect from me:

  • I will never get your coffee.  If you ask me, there will be something very unpleasant in it.  Depending on my mood it could be arsenic or a very strong laxative.
  • I suck at scheduling meeting so let’s keep that at a minimum
  • I hate answering the phone, so let’s not make it ring more than it should.  Suggest email.
  • Though I’m technically the “face of the department”  I hate that title.  The only people that find us are those lost souls that somehow slipped through the Admins down the hall.
  • Please don’t sneak up behind me because I might be doing something inappropriate at work, ie writing a blog.
  • I need to sometimes turn my music up to do my work.  I hope you don’t mind.  And if you do, well if I don’t turn it up nothing is getting done.

I’m sure there is more but you have a lot on your plate right now since you moved here from a different state.  I hope you enjoy our office personality.

Sincerely,

Ria

one of those days

23-06-2008 by rialeilani

today is one of those days where i come crashing back to reality.   we totally let the house go, which i know is the right thing.  i can’t buy a house feeling like this.  poor realtor.  but i can’t think about anyone else right now.

today is one of those days where the tears are just beneath the surface waiting to spill over.

today is one of those days where i feel lost from the person i was a couple months ago.  i don’t think i’d recognize her if i saw her.

today is one of those days where i just want to get in my car and drive.  any where away from here.

today is one of those days where the sympathetic stares make me want to break down and talk to anyone who will listen.  but i won’t.

today is one of those days where all i feel is insecurity.

today is one of those days where i can’t even think about tomorrow because this day is going to be never ending. 

today is one of those days where i have to think back and remember that i am stronger than i feel.

I stole this from Dana at Just Talk

If I had a dime for every…time I said ‘what’s up munchkin’

If I could catch a star I’d… I’d give it to someone special

If you saw me cry you’d… wonder how so many tears can fall at once

If you could read my eyes they’d tell you… everything is not ok

If I could go back 5 years I would… know a lot more

If you saw me walking…you’d have to hurry to catch up

If I could fly, I’d fly to… anywhere to get away

If I had a black cat sitting in front of me, I’d… stroke it’s ears

If I could live in the Big Apple I’d… I’d probably freak out because of all the people

If I had to leave my soulmate I’d… wonder if they were really my soulmate

If I could be a movie star I’d be… donate money to causes I deemed worthy

If I did a trick it would be… disappearing

If I had half a million I’d…pay off some bills and take my wonderful friends out

If I could pick only 6 things in the house to have for 1 year, it would be… computer, cell phone, clothes, toothbrush, fridge, books

If I really could have a dream come true it would be… happiness

If the drinking age was lowered… it wouldn’t affect me directly

If aliens really do exist…I’d like to stay oblivious

If school wasn’t required… that would be scary

If I had a special power…I could teleport

If I am what I eat… I am bread and cheese

If I am rubber and you are glue… Whatever you say bounces off of me, and sticks to you.

If I ruled the world… I’d need a more extroverted personality

If dogs are a man’s best friend…I’d hope everyone had one

If time heals all wounds… Than I shall keep on waiting. . .(I agree with Dana)

If I won the lottery… I’d volunteer or work part time, buy my dad a school for his Tae Kwon Do and other cool things

If actions speak louder than words… I’ll try to do more

If I died today…it was my time to go

and if i thought it couldn’t get worse

by rialeilani

After I shut down the computer last night and sat on the couch Scooby crawled up next to me.  He knocked over the card table that was leaning against the couch and scared the shit out of himself, which caused him to fling himself at me simultaneously punching and clawing me in the face.

It looks lovely…really…

2 sleeping pills and i’m done

fuck you, fuck you, fuck you, I’m out.

yep pretty much summarizes the day.  with the exception of taking the time to watch the clouds from the back of my car it sucked.

welcome!
