Tic Toc
I do not appreciate my time being taken for granted. I hate waiting. If we schedule something for 8:30, please believe that I want it to begin at 8:30. I schedule things out, why? Because it cuts down on the likelihood that I will be disappointed, misinformed, and/or aggravated.
No, I'm not infallible to tardiness. However, it's only in very rare instances that am I tardy without warning. You will usually get a SMS, MMS, email, phone call, or voicemail from me if I think I'll be late.
I expect the same. Use i.cal, go.ogle cal, large paper calendar, a throwback student planner....something....and get your life together.
Why am I raging at 8:45am? Because I had a conference call for job 1 this morning @ 8:30, which is usually the time that I'm heading out the door to get to job 3. So on conference call mornings, I get ready early so that I'm already at job 3 in the parking lot in time for the call.
8:30 I'm already logged into the call and parking my car.....Is the person that emailed me yesterday and scheduled this call in place? No.....so I'm sitting in the parking lot at work early for no reason (I can't go in early-I'm contracted for a certain schedule). ugh!
To top it off.....It's Day 2 of my healthy breakfast and all I really want is bacon.
Good Morning.

Randomness
1. Why is it that I can eat one really unhealthy meal and be full for the entire day, however, the second that I try to eat healthily I'm famished for a better portion of the day(Despite small portions every few hours).
2. I understand that more water in your system makes for a healthier body, but SERIOUSLY I'm tired of watching myself go back and forth to the bathroom like i'm 9.5 months pregnant (I'm not...don't even think it...that's how rumors get started).
3. Has anyone, reading this blog, successfully landed a job in another state? If so, your advice would be appreciated.
4. I am either getting sick, or my wisdom teeth are moving, or I'm allergic to something, or detouring into a hypochondriasis--again. Whatever the cause may be, I feel terrible!
5. With weddings on my mind, I've realized that I want really good food, great ambiance music, and a set-up that yields tons of conversation. Basically, I want a dinner party. Somewhere in there, I'd like to promise Sweets forever-dom in front of his parents, my parents and Jesus. That's pretty much it. Oh yea, and I'd like my dress to cause a mental and physical pause to all that happen to look at it directly(in a good way). I'll figure out how to accomplish that at some point.
6. My roommate freshman year was incredibly messy. So much so that she triggered a level of "anality" in me that I didn't know existed. Fast-forward to current day. When I'm in a space by myself, it becomes as messy as my mind happens to be at that moment. However, if I'm sharing a space, cubicle, car ride, or even a park bench with someone else I compulsively tidy.

Maid Of Honor Redux
My sister got engaged (it's been a busy weekend) and despite my pleading to valet cars, she has already asked me to be her Maid of Honor. It's rather early in the engagement (putting it mildly) so my chance to valet isn't completely lost. I'm keeping hope alive.
In the meantime...Congrats to Ash & Steve!
Love you both!!!!!!!!!!!
P.S. The "redux" is due to the fact that I'm currently the MOH for my podmate. Egads! the last time I was in a wedding....I was a flower girl!

Regulator!
Notice anything? Come on.....think about it.... Anything???? I've blogged this entire work week.
What hath occurred to get me back on a normal schedule? I cover the front desk for the receptionist every day from noon-1pm. For some reason, the company has yet to put up a firewall for blogger, so every day I've been writing at least two posts and scheduling them to post the next day.
Score! So for those of you who have tracked me down via email, SMS, MMS, BBmsger, etc. for not updating regularly, I hope that you've enjoyed this week.

GPS Needed
Here at job 3, I assist the HR director, who oversees the needs of between 150-200 people company wide. I love HR. Well, let me take a step back. Much like my Broadcast major, HR seemingly comes easy to me. I can pretend to listen and be concerned about people's needs with the best of them. At my primary job, my employer skillfully tasked me with small HR tasks, here and there until I became the entire department(yea....got got). Honestly, I don't mind because solving other people's problems are usually really easy for someone who isn't really interested in dealing with their own issues. Thusly, I don't quite Love HR....it's just something I do without thinking.
Now in my few weeks with company 3, I've been maintaining a running dialogue with Hey-Zoos Crees-toe (spelled phonetically) aka J.C. for those of you that didn't take Spanish. I'm of the mindset that this is either a gateway to a better job, a resume builder, something to pad my pockets, or this is an example of a job that I think I want, but in actuality would prefer to pass on.
The latter is resounding in my ears. Good golly, I'm bored. So bored that I typed "golly." This company is a microcosm of my time in Palm Beach. Great company, wonderful people, but I'm inunadated with an insatiable itch to do more than my cubicle allows.
I suppose I've done "my bid" of cubicle work. Having worked in a cubicle/front desk setting off and on for the past (gasp) 10 years. I'm over it. I love to travel and generally if nothing else, I've come to realize that it's more fun to do something that requires perpetual motion and interaction outside of a closet space.
Ugh Crees-toe! I'm listening, but I'm not liking it......I need a GPS for my life!

Thoughts
1. Dear co-worker, I do not know why your keycode works, but your thumb print won't read correctly. However, without both items I cannot let you in the building. My apologies.
2. Please do not call me at 6am to let me know that you are running late. I take naps from 5am-6am and from 6:30-7:30am, do you really think that I care about you being 10 minutes late?
3. If I'm having a terrible day, then I would appreciate it if everyone, but Sweets left me alone. Sweets, I would like to be coddled, but do not plan to reciprocate the affection in any way.
4. Speaking of Sweets....Sweets called me selfish yesterday. While I know that I have selfish tendencies, I do not appreciate hearing about them. Please submit a memo next time. In triplicate.
5. Dear hair, you have exactly 3 weeks to act like you know what I expect of you. Do not be a petulant child and "act out" in front of company!
6. Dear Face, Ditto.
7. I despise the fact that I've become more of an emotional person the older that I've gotten. Just once, I'd like to approach a topic that makes me incredibly angry, sad, scared, or happy and not feel like tears on are stand-by. I HATE tears(frat excluded).
8. I tend not to revisit specific times in my life, hence the reason that Homecoming is a hard concept for me to enjoy. To further clarify, I never returned to my elementary, middle, or high school once I left. As I look at Homecoming quickly approaching, I'm more likely to make individul plans with my friends and skip the whole, "Hey Girl!!!!!!!!!" song and dance routine.
9. My plans to move to ATL do include my willingness to drive a Marta train. Also, I have not ruled out applying to be the 4th Fantana.
10. I absolutely feel like I'm following the path that I'm supposed to follow, but I can't calm down my own internal angst. The path that I'm taking is not the one that I planned for myself, nor is it leading me where I want to go(on my timeline). That is 2 successive "I's" which is the surest formula for disaster. I'm at the place where faith, fortitude, logic, hope, and dreams are clashing and I don't like it.
11. I cannot believe that 27 is around the corner.
