71988 points | Burned My Arm
November 18, 2009 @ 11:51:02 pm | Hair off accidentally. Was weird, sprayed deoderant a bit too close to my Yankee Candle and there was like a huge fireball that lasted about a second, no pain whatsoever but when I looked at my arm all the hair on it was singed and half off.
Looks a bit odd, got one arm with hair the other without.3 comments | Reply |

71988 points | Happy?
November 11, 2009 @ 04:00:24 am | I started to think today, that perhaps the reason so many of us feel so terrible all the time is because we see happiness as a right. Don't get me wrong, happiness would be wonderful, but perhaps happiness is a luxary. Perhaps we are supposed to feel unhappy and take these rare moments of happiness as wonderful moments in theirselves.
No-one I know is happy, or at least no-one I know seems to be happy. But everyone I know goes through moments of happiness. Maybe thats the best we can wish for.
Perhaps expecting constant happiness and getting limited happiness is what makes us so depressed.
Who knows? I just think I need to stop being clever or philosophical about happiness and just have as much of it as I can and as little as I hope not to have.6 comments | Reply |

11268 points | I can't handle this right now...
November 10, 2009 @ 01:06:53 am | I don't know why, but it seems like today is meant to be really hard day for me.
My coworker, Chad, has been angry for a while now, but tonight was the final straw for him I guess. I'll give you some examples of what happened.
1)Tonight, we had someone call in saying we called them. I checked and they weren't in our system. The guy actually was a National Guard recruiter and at the end of our conversation, he started to recruit me. It seemed pretty funny to me. I told him I couldn't join because I have Asthma and we hung up. I was telling a fellow coworker about it and Chad practically yells over the cube "Why did you give your medical information to a stranger on the phone?" Then he went on a little rant saying "why don't we just give them your Social Security Number?", etc. It was really uncalled for and very embarrasing for him to say those things.
2)Somewhere in my talking up at the front desk, I happened to say the word "dude". Chad proceeds to come up to me and ask if I had said that word while I was dealing with a student. I told him I wasn't sure. He actually got upset that I said "dude". 
3) Then he got on me for not updating the colors on our calendar (to say if the appointment showed or not). I was going to update it shortly, but he got on me for that.
So I guess he went to my boss and asked to move to a cube in the back, away from the front desk. Part of me is glad because he's been annoying me for a while. But another part is wondering what the heck is going on and why is this happening. I thought we were buddies, but evidently not.
Also, he's been talking to all of his coworkers in his department about this situation, or that's what I believe is going on. Everytime I walk by they get very quiet. I know that I might be assuming that they're talking about me and I know the saying about assuming. This just isn't a good time for me and I'm dealing with so many other things that I just feel like I can't handle this.
