A friend of mine found out about this book, written by a local author called Anxious to Please. It's about the Nice girl/guy syndrome that's harming our nation - the book makes a really good case about the negative effects of being a nice guy/girl on society and in personal relationships. And I know I need a little booster shot in this area, I'm ( Read more... )

I haven't updated in awhile. I haven't really had anything to say, I work, I go home, I play WoW, maybe I hang with Travis a bit, that's been it. Very blah. I got a raise at work, and I'm going to get a gas card too, which is nice. Hopefully I'll be able to start working with my guys, coaching them in sales. Part of the review was the need to ( Read more... )

I had jury duty on Monday, and ever since then I've been fighting a losing battle to catch up. I had to take an extended lunch today to sign papers for refinancing my house, I had to take a break the day before to get my car from the shop - I just feel like I have all these interruptions to my work and it's putting me farther and farther behind ( Read more... )

I got to go to Federal Court today! Yup, your's truely was called for Jury Duty! So I went downtown and prepared to do my civic duty. The case was the city of Blane vs. Company X (I'm not trying to protect anyone, I really can't remember their name.) Apparently, Blane wanted a new waste water treatment plant and hired X to make sure there were no ( Read more... )

I have had such a nice day, just putzing around in my pajamas and cleaning up my house. I spend so much time out of it, that I forget how much I love it! I just have to work on keeping it clean! :o) I've gotten a lot done today - 3 loads of laundry, I'm unpacked completely finally, I made my bed (from the damn cats "missing me" so much they peed on ( Read more... )

Well, I'm home again. I wish I could live in Hawaii - maybe someday. I tried to talk my mom into opening up a branch over there, but she wasn't really going for it. I'm sure our trucks would be more interesting to look at than the "Pump it" drain service trucks I saw ( Read more... )

I love Hawaii! I wish I could stay here for a whole month someday. The weather is beautiful, the water is warm, and the people are friendly. My parents decided to take a two week vacation for the first time in their lives, and my sister, niece and I are the lucky beneficaries. They spent a week here by themselves, and then two days ago, we came to ( Read more... )
