400 degree ovens are hot.
How many times must you burn yourself until you remember this?

My coworker and friend Jacqueline’s grandma died this morning. She was 88 and they all knew it was coming. That just doesn’t make it any easier, does it?
Grandma’s are wonderful things. I miss mine.

My sisters haven’t noticed I deleted my myspace page.
Guess I’m really not surpised.
Ya, nice

A payroll client just called in her hours a week late.
“I just didn’t need the money- I forgot!” giggle giggle.
What the hell does that feel like?

I just got all pissy cause a client came into see Martha.
WTF? I though, its Wednesday, she doesn’t take clients on Wednesdays during tax season! And how dare they just drop in? Don’t they have any manners at all?
And then it dawned on me that it was Thursday. And this poor woman had an appoinment.
The upside to this story is its not Wednesday, but THURSDAY! Which means that tomorrow is Friday!
My thought for the evening

If you go into a relationship believing that your partner has to make up for all the disappointments and hurts you’ve ever suffered then no one will ever be good enough.
Not to move off topic or anything

because we all know this blog is always on topic. And I know you all get a little sick to your stomachs when I start mumbling about how wonderful Brian is. Which I do regularly(true). DON’T worry- I’ll be back to that soon enough, I expect. Unless I tell you about the fight about shepherds pie.
BUT.
WTF? It was just snowing! Its MARCH. I’m done with snow. DONE. FINIS!
Mother Nature needs to figure this out.
She also needs to guarantee me a perfect September in 09-which is when I’d like to tie the knot.
Emotional me

So I can cry at the drop of a hat.
Weddings, births, deaths, songs on the radio- hell, even commercials make me cry!
So I’m doing payroll for a company and in it is a note from a girl- written on the paper she has her social security card copied on.
It reads :
“Boss” I got my name changed because my wonderful stepdad adopted me. Will you please change it?”
And I cried when I read this because in this world there are wonderful men who take broken families and make them whole again.
And I have one of them.
stupid comments

So I just read an article about divorce parties. And then I read the comments.
I hate comments- not from you guys- but on public forums.
Everyone is always so nasty and judgmental.
The general gist was:
- the women who had the parties were selfish bitches
- how dare you celebrate divorce, its sacred!
- how dare you celebrate a divorce, what about the kids?
- if you throw a divorce party you are narcissistic and the entire reason the marriage failed
- how dare you celebrate divorce, its sad
- how dare you celebrate a failure!
- ya, she’s celebrating cause she got everything!
Should I go on?
I wish I’d had a divorce party! I think its a great idea.
Did I get married thinking I could just leave? No.
Did I want a divorce? No.
Did the marriage fail? Yes.
Did I fail? NO
When I finally got the divorce did I feel like celebrating? Hell Yes.
Was I celebrating the failure? NO.
I was celebrating life- I was celebrating the fact that I’d walked away a better stronger person. I was triumphant in myself! And life was full of possibilities.
I had just had years of misery and I was celebrating the end of misery! I was celebrating the fact that I was okay and myself!
Why would a party to celebrate all of those good things that came out of it have been wrong?
