| I've been in full on Nightmare of You mode for a few weeks... ((hence the catchy title)) Work at 7:30 am isn't the most pleasant thing on a Monday morning. Not like I should complain... Because, really, I have it easy. It's a better job than a lot of people do have, and I get more hours opening the salon as opposed to closing... But I'm not a morning person. Those who know me well already know this. I don't operate well early on, it's not my fault. There are many times when time and space are needed... Unfortunately, patience is key, and I seriously lack in that department... And, as a domino effect, I tend to cling and become insecure. It's disgusting. I'm quite aware that I'm doing it, and that it isn't the right approach... But I do it anyway. Why?! It's not like I haven't learned the hard way before... Because honestly, I have. Many times. It's just built-in, I guess, and no matter how many times I convince myself that I can't be that way, no matter how many times people around me remind me to back off... I don't learn. Ahhh... Quote of the Day: "I'm a babe on a budget."
(salon client, on Dunkin Donuts coffee.)
Honestly... who can't relate to that!? (If you truly can't relate... Don't tell me. I like to think that I'm not the only poor person in the world still, with the exception of the above-quoted woman... Haha)
Kayleigh has been leaving some awesome quotes.. I particularly like this one:
“I like too many things and get all confused and hung-up running from one falling star to another till i drop. This is the night, what it does to you. I had nothing to offer anybody except my own confusion.”
(Kerouac)
Love and peace, blessings and happiness.
Have an outstanding day! | | |
| We all have them. Some of us have more than others. Bad, good, obsessive, crazy... They're all there, and quite easy to pick up on. Habits are much easier to pick up than to get rid of... Easier said than done, right? Nail-biting, over-analyzing, reflecting, dwelling, worrying, stressing... All habitual, and I have them down pat. At least they all relate to each other... Yesterday I over-analyzed to the max. Usually, when I do this, I wind up worrying about things that I shouldnt, and stressing over stupid little things that really aren't worth the hassle, either. My friends laugh everytime I do this, because they know me so well.... and they know that it will always happen, again and again and again. It's silly... I need to stop being like this, though.. I'm trying! It makes all of my insecurities stand out, and that's a giant red flag to anyone interacting with me... If they're still trying to get to know me, at least. I scare people away and I don't want to!!!! I'm so silly, sometimes. Ahh... "At the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing is reason enough to celebrate." Keep the quotes coming, guys... I love hearing them!!! ----------------------------------
UPDATE: I ripped my skirt getting off my chair at work. I don't know what that's telling me.... What i DO know is that my skirt is ripped very, very far up.. It's a little too risque for work. AHHH. | | |
| We all have addictions in life. In fact, Grey's Anatomy's most recent episode (4.2) was actually all about addictions... So basically, I'm stealing my headline from that. Yeah, I said it... I'm a theif. But only when it pertains to Grey's quotes and headlines... I promise!!! My two latest addictions stem from things surrounding me. First of all, I work in a salon... I get to be pampered, and feel beautiful all of the time. It's wonderful... Only I can't have "off days". I have to look good every day. Tricky, especially at 7am when I'm trying to rush into work on just a couple of hours of sleep.... But that's beside that point. Addiction #1: my latest nail polish color. I got them done yesterday, and I can't stop looking at them... It's quite bright and cheery. It's by OPI, and it's called "Tasmanian Devil Made Me Do It". How fun is that?! I know... I'm loving it. Addiction #2: For those of you who are Starbucks regulars, you've probably noticed the quotes on the styrofoam cups. They are actually called "The Way I See It"'s, and I've become quite a big fan of them. If you haven't taken time to read these, you really should... It's a nice boost of inspriation, positivity, and insight for the day. Who can argue with that? Not me. I'll tell you what--I love quotes. Those of you who know me know that I am a word fanatic. Lyrics, words, quotes, thoughts... I'm infatuated. I'm going to start leaving quotes in my entries... Maybe it'll put a little spin on someone else's day :)
If you have any "The Way I See It's" that YOU are fond of, or any quotes or lyrics that make you smile... Leave me a comment. I'd love to find out what inspires other people!!!
QUOTES OF THE DAY:
The Way I See It #274:
"People often ask me if it is worth it to work at sea, isolated from the world, far from loved ones, seasick and running on three hours' sleep. To lay eyes on something never before seen by anyone, to learn something new about our planet, for that one moment of discovery--yes, it is all worth it."
-Katy Croff (Oceanographer)-
The Way I See It #272:
"Be the example; spread hope."
-Cat Cora (chef)- | | |
| I'm sick again. How does this happen so much in one month to someone who never gets sick!? Ahh... Literally, I got over strep throat, had my lip done, and then one week after the lip finally started to heal, I caught a cold... WHY?! My mouth and immune system both hate me... That's a solid month of not being able to eat much, or have anything NOT swollen... I'm out of control. Dre says I'm ridiculous. I thought I'd mention that, and give him a little shout-out. He knows. They put up a firewall at work this week blocking myspace and facebook (much to my dismay), so I have to entertain myself on Xanga now... How old-school is that? Oh well... 
Mmmm.... You really have to try these. I'm not lying... They're addictive.
Today I'm drinking the C-Boost Immunity Support Tropical Fruit Smoothie flavor. It's much different.. But still pretty tasty. I highly recommend these drinks to everyone. They're organic and so good for you... and they taste delicious. Why wouldn't you drink them!? (Though I'm contradicting the whole "healthy drink" idea, with my Starbucks cup right in front of me as well... But it's sugar free, so who really cares?! Not me.) I should be in sales pitching. Or maybe commercials. I could make money that way, and we all know how much I ALWAYS need money. It's nothing new... I need to pay off my credit card this month, come on! I'm registered for Moorestown.. I just have to try to get out of some meetings at work, and then get a plane ticket. Jobs get in the way of too many things these days. I need to be my own boss.... Cross your fingers, and I just may be there... I'm trying! Tonight, I'm thinking vegetable sushi.... Fantastic :) 
"Warm October nights, you came and cuddled next to me; our noses were so close.."
