Top of the Line Automobile

Today I realized that I have something in my car that makes it one of the most rare and well-equipped vehicles in the Pittsburgh area. I have a freaking turn-signal.

Apparently very few other people that I now share morning and afternoon rush hours with have them in their vehicles. I feel privileged that I have this feature. Now if only there was a way to share the concept of turn signals with others. Or to help them realize that the tunnels will NOT get smaller as you drive through them. This in NOT Willy Wonka and there is no Gene Wilder wearing a purple suit hiding in the tunnels.

Day 2

So today was Day 2 of my new job.... very bored and really thinking that the particular position that I chose is not what I want to be doing for an extended period of time. But then again I probably felt the same way when I was training for that dam job at the hospital. I don't really remember much of training except debating about whether I was going to wear my engagement ring or not while I waited for JerkFace to decide he wanted to give us another try. Anywho....

They do keep stressing the fact that there is room for advancement in the company, and the men who are in charge of things do seem to keep watching me strangely. Maybe it's their grand idea to put me in charge of their world and I just didn't get there yet.

Then there is the chance to go to class and do what my book character did and proceed with a clinical career....

Must talk to them about it later....

Signs

Yea I need out of my house..... I know I'm headed straight for hell for even thinking this but the noises that occur in my house make me crazy. Every three seconds my mother is coughing/sneezing/spitting/choking on God only knows what and if there really is something that she's choking on I really wish the doctors would find it and fix it already.

Gulliable

Why do I let people talk me into things???

So I let a woman at work talk me into something that I really never wanted to do!! She talked me into setting up a page on match.com and I'm really feeling awkward about it. So far, I've come across nothing that I really felt like pursuing. Except for one guy who I basically pissed off and he stopped talking to me. But the more I think about it, I think I only liked him because he was just like all the other guys I know. They just want sex and to have a girlfriend now and then when it's convenient for them. O well, I guess it really isn't my loss.

Anyway, I really can't believe that I might actually meet the man of my dreams just by looking at a profile on the Internet. It would by much more fulfilling to meet someone while doing charity work, or bumping into them at a restaurant or just catching their eye across a room. Or you know if he hits a home run into my hands while I'm watching him at a baseball game. OK OK, back to reality.

So once again I've decided to try and become involved in charities and volunteer work. The benefits of this are two fold. First there is the chance to meet new people who might fit my life a little better than the ones I"ve been spending time with. Secondly, it would be amazing to work for a charity and get to plan the events and fundraisers that actually benefit the public.

I have so many possibilities in my grasp right now that I think it can't hurt to keep pushing myself and see how much I actually can get into.

Name Change

So my book, The Secret, tells me that the thoughts that stick in your head are basically predicting your future and the things you dwell on will continue to be present in your life. Therefore I know that the name Ms. Almost really has many many meanings but perhaps I should change my name to something that shows me being the woman that I really want to be in my life.

The problem now is trying to figure out what that name should be.
- Ms. Finally???
- Ms. Dam Right??

I don't know. So for now I'll remain Ms Almost until I come up with the new name that I like. Once again, I'm open to any suggestions. :)

Advice Needed

So I want to start writing a column for a newspaper.... how do I go about doing that?? I honestly have no idea and I should have done this a long long time ago in college and perhaps I would actually have a clue what to do. I think I'm going to write an amazing letter to the freelance section of a couple newspapers and once they read them they are going to BEG me to write for them on a regular basis. But if anyone has any ideas I'd be more than happy to try them out too.

Birthday Time!!

So today is Meredith's birthday!! She's officially getting old and since I'm going to stop counting birthdays after next year, she'll catch up to me in no time. Right now we're both still debating what the heck we're gonna wear out tonight but we have our plans. I invited a bunch of people but we can have fun even if no one else comes! I'm still debating about buying the new shoes that I saw yesterday and kinda fell in love with. They're super dirty cute.

But I should really not be spending money that I don't have....... But with Mere's discount it's all good!!! I'll probably end up buying them and never knowing what to wear them with.
