I was super irritated for no real reason (other then the lack of ice cream in the freezer) last night. I gave up fighting it and went to bed at 10 PM. Now I am drinking tea, wishing it were coffee, wishing it were Irish coffee. I do not like this time of year.
Yet another thing that is fantastic about my old friends. Joe & I went to the diner on Saturday afternoon. First of all, it was monsoon-ing, but out of respect for my umbrella hate he did not carry an umbrella. Which is sensible, I think, considering we were just going from the car to the diner, which was maybe 50 feet. And ok, he confessed that the REAL reason he didn’t carry the umbrella is because he knew I would refuse to use it, and then he would look like the jerk, walking with the umbrella, and letting the girl get soaked.
Anyway, I confessed to him that besides the Bon Jovi kick that I have been on as of late, I cannot stop listening to my Taylor Swift CD. He of course, rolled his eyes at me, and mockingly asked “What’s your favorite song?”
“I’m not telling you!”
He thought about it for about 15 seconds, and then said “It’s ‘You Belong With Me’ isn’t it? That it so like you”
He’s almost right. Not my favorite on the CD, but there have been times when I’m singing along with it in my car and wishing I was 14 because then the song would have been oh-so-relevant to my life.
(My favorite Taylor Swift song, for the record is “Change.” Because this things will change.)
I love that he knows me well enough to state my Taylor Swift song preferences so emphatiaclly.
Now, in case that left any doubt over whether I am in fact, a “total girl” I will confess that the only thing restraining me from buying shoes (at omg, 25% off) right now is because shipping takes too long and I am into instant gratification. However, what may moderate my utter girliness is the fact that I HATE shoe shopping. HATE it. Hate that you have to find a salesperson and ask them to get your size. And so really, buying shoes online IS the most logical choice. Also I am wearing black pants, black shoes and white socks right now. That is terribly unfashionable and thus not very girly.
And now this entry comes full circle, because I’m irritated again. I don’t mind answering questions at work; I don’t even mind questions that are not my job to answer. I’m Little-Miss-Knows-Everything when it comes to operational, budget and administrative issues here. But I HATE when a co-workers asks for the same piece of (very simple) information over and over again. WRITE IT DOWN.
And no, I am not PMS-ing. I think this is a perfectly reasonable thing to be irritated about. (Insert smile-y face here)

I also really HATE umbrellas AND shoe shopping. I hate it, I SO hate it. Plus right now I too am wearing all black with white socks but that’s only because technically I’m still in my pyjamas at 3.06pm which makes me doubly un-girly and un-ladylike. And that’s how I like it.
We rock.

I hate shoe shopping as well! I can never find shoes that fit and are comfortable. Well, almost never.
