and today was a day just like any other…

yaritza told me the other day that my problem wasnt an ability to ‘care to much’ it was that i become attached to quickly
“we can smell our own” she said, for the most part.
in most situations that is true… but currently… not so much.
when jonquil called the other day and told me about a problem she was having transitioning from tech to QA at work, i told her i would ask around and try to find a solution for her, never thinking that the person who would tell me how to fix it was staying in a hotel 5 miles away.
so here is your quick and easy fix.
‘you have pulled a jq (ie you have been shortsighted… not paid attention, and ran head first into a brick wall) stop, breath, reassess your situation… look around and approach your problem from a different angle’. dont be so quick to jump into things. you may think that running passionately into another position, and telling people how much you love it is endearing, i assure you the people in the other department are put off by it.
remember you may think that the couple of times you were placed in that position is a sign that they want you there…. but it could be quite possible that they just needed someone to fill that position… anyone… and you were the easiest person for the transition.
Mabey they have someone else in mind, but for one reason or another that person was unavailable.
so… slowly fix the issues with your current position, before EASING your way into another…. or you will go nowhere fast.
no one wants extreme passion AND/OR baggage from another department.
the day started out like any other.
the following is based on a true story, the names and dates have been changed to protect the innocent.
sylvia, james, leslie and i went to logans… had some steak, then joes for some coffee…. we ended at corbitts drinking jamesons, and walking head first into a nick hornby book.
List the first ten bands to go on your ipod

5 Me first and the gimme gimmes

Corbitts’ monday night bartender happens to be the Anderson Independent Mail entertainment columnist.
who knew that a trip to the pub could land you in the newspaper…
from there to maui for a corona.
and from maui to a nice two hour adventure in a strange bed.
there was a very very long section of text here describing the night and how i felt about it… but its none of your business… i made it private
at maui, i was asked how many people i have slept with.
my default answer for the last 3 years has been
14
1 april
2 ashley
3 krystal
4 that one girl from satsuma
5 ami
6 jonquil
7 tina
8 alesha
9 morgan
10 laura
11 ashley
12 that girl from interlachen
13 keri
14 Suzzanne
i think thats the list…. frankly i have forgotten
this list needs ammending
15 kara
16 angela
17 ashley
18 aatje
19 she who shall not be named
it has been said that i am a whore…
thats true enough i guess, but a wise man (ie big nat) once said “until you are 30 you should have a strange woman in your bed every night”.
i am tired of the games, the fake relationships, the false caring.
i watch friends throw themselves into other peoples arms… give themselves away completely, only to have their souls crushed in the end.
Yaritza is a prime example
i dont know exactly what happened… but i do know that someone as smart and funny, caring and beautiful as her does not deserve to be heartbroken.
im still drunk… by the way.
i should prolly stop typing now.

This is great advise! I want to say as far as big nat goes though, I think it is smarter to find a strange bed then to have them in your bed! Some chics are crazy and you dont want to find yourself with some clingy chic who knows where you live. I had a blast…can’t wait to do it again!
