long time, no read.

i guess since i was tagged twice, i'll make my list :)

6 simple things that make me smile:

1. a big glass of skim milk in the morning.

2. sneezing. it is so refreshing. is it strange that sneezing is one of my favorite things? i love it.

3. the mountains. you can see them from anywhere in el paso.

4. when life gets so ridiculous you just laugh. like this.

5. random quotes. sometimes when i feel alone, a few simple words help me know that someone once felt the way i do.

6. sleeping when it's raining outside.

i would tag six blogs, but i don't follow that many and half of you guys have already been tagged or tagged me ;)

moving on to other things. oh wait, all i do is work. moving onto other thing(-s).

they're moving me to the men's department. i'm not too thrilled about this. i've already had an altercation with my soon to be "boss". he was rude, in front of associates (workers), and i had to inform him that he "can't talk to me like that." fun times. later he was all like "i kind of liked it." i said "you're welcome?" silly me, i wasn't aware that i did it for his own pleasure.

have i ever mentioned that my life feels like one big game of "let's screw emily over"?

because it does.

but i'm going to try to be positive about this (and you guys now know how hard this can sometimes be for me).

so i FINALLY have the weekend off, and i'm planning on spending a ton of time with my family. i'm going to my nephew's baseball game, taking my niece to see the hannah montana movie, and then relaxing for the remainder. i wish i could have slept in, but as usual i woke up bright and early at 7:15.

hello all!

it has been such a long time since i've been able to blog. so much has happened, but at this point i can't even remember most of it. ha!

work is going well. i'm learning how to do my job little by little. it's a lot to take on, but luckily i have really nice co-workers who are always willing to help me.

i bought a car. if we're friends on facebook, i'll put up photos there. it's a pretty sweet ride. it's also previously belonged to my mother ;)

i've become a shopaholic. not a good thing. i mean it's fun to shop, but i need to pull in the reins on that one.

i get my iphone tomorrow. haha. nice transition from being a shopaholic.

i've decided that now is the time to get a boyfriend. i'm working on it. give me a week or two.

teeth

so there's this guy at work. i won't mention names, but he is very (okay extremely) attractive. and for me to say this, it means a lot. you guys know how picky i am (especially about jaw lines and teeth ;)

we sometimes talk, but it's mostly about lame loser topics that grandmas talk to each other about right before they take their afternoon nap.

i'm not really sure what has happened to me. i used to be overly-confident when it came to guys and relationships. then, along came jerkface (can also be referred to as wanker if you're british) who ruined my life (okay, not really but it adds to the drama) and also my self-confidence.

so back to super-hot: i feel like a 12 year old girl who has a crush and will never, ever approach the boy. and it doesn't help that i'm older than him (does that make me a cougar?). i am so out of practice when it comes to being my age and single. isn't it ironic? i've been single for over a year and i'm still not quite sure what i'm doing. before i liked being single, now super-hot has me questioning this.

anyway, i'll keep you updated on my endeavors. i know you're on the edge of your seat.
