i'm not religious at all - but i need some of this...

GOD, grant me the
Serenity
to accept the things
I cannot change
Courage
to change the
things I can
and the
Wisdom
to know the difference.

Work on a Sunday. I SO don't want to be here. But I am rockin out to
the Tony Rich Project, so there is an upside.

Score!!! Now if they could just let me customize my text MSG
sounds... I have the best one ever.

Testing!

Testing to see if blogging from my iPhone works

so. let me tell you one of my pet peeves. i hate. hate hate HATE when people come in and change your shit around because they think their idea is better. if it's a better idea sure. fine. yea, that makes sense. but i spend a lot of time thinking about things and how they work, and how they'll work in the future to what's best. and in reality too. like.. sure.. you might think your idea is good, but are you going to maintain it and carry it out? Or is it going to be my job to carry out your crappy idea that's going to just be trouble for me? most of the time (with the exception of a few people) your idea isn't better. And sure, sometimes i'll split hairs. Sometimes your way is one way, and my way is another way - and they're both good, so who cares. But when I've spent a few days plus all day today doing it one way, is it really that necessary to change it to your way? Especially when today is the last time you'll ever touch it? You saw me doing it this way last week, and saw me doing it this way all day today. Only when I'm almost finished do you say "hey, let's do it this way!" Sure. Go for it. Yes. Maybe I'm being kind of a child by just walking away and not helping. I'm not really offended that you don't like the way I've organized it, I just hate wasting my time. And I've just wasted 4 hours today, and I'm not going to waste anymore. It'll probably be up to me to maintain it, or I can just wash my hands of it completely. What's funny is that no one would have taken any initiative to get it done, unless I started doing it. And now everyone else is going to get credit for making the board look great. "you did all the hard work, now you just have to re-do it"

yea thanks. that's a not so much.

cute client services boy i like to smile at: "do you need anything else?"
me: "no thanks, i'm good." smiley face.

how this conversation should have went:
cute client services boy i like to smile at: "do you need anything else?"
me: "you."

the sky will fall before that conversation ever actually happens. *sigh
