Wednesday?

by Donna on April 30, 2008

I am fighting the urge to think, feel, say, “I’m tired.” Instead I shake the sleepiness from my head and think, “I’m awake! I want to face the day!” Ha! I could crawl right back in bed right this very second. It makes sense. I’ve been away from work and [...]

MADD and SADD

by Donna on April 29, 2008

On Thursday a drunk driver killed my cousin. Yesterday was the viewing and today was the mass and funeral. It was heart wrenching seeing his wife, daughters, and grandkids so distraught. He was a good man, a very good man. He took such good care of my grandparents when they were alive [...]

Elbow Duke

by Donna on April 28, 2008

My elbow hurts. It’s been hurting for about 4 days. I have no clue what I did to it. It feels stiff like it’s been locked in place. I think it’s a sleep injury. Maybe I slept on it strangely, bent under my head or something. That is all [...]

Surprise!

by Donna on April 27, 2008

I went to the Surprise Shower this afternoon. It wasn’t something I was really looking forward to attending. Certainly I am happy for Caren but sitting in a roomful of women, oooohing and ahhhing over gifts, is just not my idea of a good time. Plus, I waited until the last possible [...]

The Notorious Betty Page

by Donna on April 27, 2008

Last night I watched the movie, The Notorious Betty Page. I’ve been wanting to see it for ages. I’ve always gotten a kick out of the pictures of Betty Page that would cross my path. Unfortunately, her life didn’t exactly lend itself to a very exciting movie. She took great pictures, [...]

Pizza and meatballs

by Donna on April 23, 2008

There’s a pizza parlor I frequent that is located nearby my office. The woman who works the register always kept her hair over the right side of her face in a rather hopeless bid to obscure a huge tumor which sat on her cheek. I went in there earlier this week after having [...]

I eyed up the situation, determined the best location and stood there, away from the other “poll workers.” As people walked up the path, I smiled and asked: “Are you Republican?” The Democrats outnumbered the Republicans. I would say, 10 to 1. I was prepared for rudeness; I was ready to [...]

Human Behavior

by Donna on April 22, 2008

Today is going to be a very interesting day. After work, I am running to vote and then once there, will stay to hand out sample Republican ballots. I am curious to see how people react. I can imagine there will be a lot of rudeness. Regardless, I need to do [...]

How Lovely!

by Donna on April 21, 2008

At my last presentation, I met a darling man. I handed him my business card and he looked at it, and looked at it, and looked at it.
“We just changed our logo. It had been blue, now it’s ORANGE!”
“Yes, I see. I don’t like it. Not at all.”
He then went on [...]
