Pray

I have a friend who really needs prayer. Im very worried. Please if you read this blog, pray for her. Pray, fast, pray continually. I'll be honest, Im afraid that this friend is going to make a very bad choice, the choice to end their life. Please promise me that you will pray. And then pray.

I live in the ghetto

It is 3:4 1 am. I am awake, this is why. I was fast asleep, when I heard a noise, to me, as I was awoken by it, I thought it was the trumpet of the Lord. It wasnt. Then I figured it was a car alarm. So I looked out the my bedroom window and saw a cab in front of my house and I wondered why he was honking his horn in the middle of the night, oh, and then I realized it wasnt the cab when I saw a car across the street explode!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thats right.It exploded. Just like in the movies. It was nuts. I was like "uh, that aint right". Then I quickly jumped out of bed and called 911. Crazy. Like four minutes later, the fire department were here to save the day. I swear, the whole neighborhood came out for the event, should have been somebody out selling snacks. It was like a block party. Sheeesh, some people are so nosy! Not me though, you didnt see me out there with all the masses though( I was just spying from my window). Anyway, thats about all I have to say. Now I have go see whats going on out there now!

The Customer is Always Wrong

For any of you who have never worked in customer service, I thought I would let you know just how unvalued you are as a customer. You walk into a store, and see a smiling clerk headed your way, in your head, you think 'crap, I hate sales people!' Well heres the thing, chances are, the clerk walking toward you, is thinking 'ah crap,I friggin hate customers'.
See Working with customers nine hours a day, really trains a person to be fake. Smiling when you want to scream, helping people when you feel like hurting them, thats what customer service is all about.
Dont get me wrong, some cusotmers are awesome, and some days are great. But if an awesome customer comes in on an awful day, the clerk really hates the customer.
And heres the thing, customers are stupid!! I am walking through the store with 6 shoe boxes in my hand, you would assume I work there? Nope. You have to ask me!! What do i say? 'Yes'. What do I want to say 'Are you an idiot? Why do you think I am carrying all these freakin' shoes?'
Oh, my favorite question that I get all of the time. In our shoes, there is a sticker, and it usually has the sizes we have the shoes availble in. E.G Sizes 6.5-12. Now if you read that, you would just assume that it comes in those sizes, right? Wrong. Honest to frig, doehole after doehole asks me 'uh, it says on the sticker size 6.5-12, does that mean this shoe fits anyone from 6.5-12?' K,give your head a shake!!!!! Did you see a sign on the door that says 'The Magical Family Shoe Shoppes?' No, I didnt think so? no, the shoe you are holding in your hand is not a magical shoe from the land of pink elephants, and flying moose. Of course that shoe does not fit any size!!!!!!!!!!Please, walk out the door, take a left, take your first right, walk straight until you see water, fall in!! Oh, and dont ever reproduce.

Sunshine(not feeling sunny inside)

The sun is shinning. I was starting to think that sunshine was just a myth. But nopers. I love the sun. It makes me happy. But wanna know what I hate? being a non smoker, that doesnt so much make me happy. It makes me angry and frustrated and sad, and really very screwed up. Im going nuts. I know someday Ill be very thankful for my choice to become smoke free. But today, not so much!!!! I kinda want to punch people and stuff, and yell and then cry. But hey, its day #4, and Im still going. That is something that I can smile about. And of course the sunshine. I think God just knew I needed the sun to shine or I would uno, hurt someone!!!!! I know you laugh, but, NOT JOKING!!!!!!! And I also decided that whoever invented the flaming stick of death was an idiot. The stupid tobacco companies getting rich, feeding off peoples deadly addiciton. Yea, well, guess what, not me, not any more!!!

Weighed Down (My Battle)

Weighed down by the guilt
of a thousand bad choices
Beat up again
by this pride that deceives

Wrecklessly living
for selfish ambition
with nowhere to run
or to hide from your face

Why am I
in this place again
why can't I
just never let go of your hand

You tell me you love me
but I just cant listening
I'll find my way out
of this wreck on my own

I know you're the healer
but I dont think Im broken
So I just keep trudging
this world all alone

Why am I
In this place again
Why can't I
just never let go of your hand

Your always calling
but Im seldom falling
to my knees
which is all I can do

Finally with hands
that are lifted to Heaven
Im giving this battle
to you

Why am I
in this place again
Help me God
to never let go of your hand

Hows my love life? Thanks for asking!

Well, just thought Id update you all on my love life. But where do I begin? Here it goes.

My latest x just wrecked his car driving drunk(clearly I know how to pick em). An nice old man visits me at work about six times a day. Maybe he has a little crush on me I think, the thing is there is about a 60 year age gap!! Oh, and speaking of old men, a few weeks ago, a toothless 8o or so year old man came into my work to hit on me. He was a bit bolder than my other golden oldie, he actually asked me out, said he had a hundred and fity bucks burning a hole in his pocket and he wanted to spend it all on me!!! I was pretty impressed and tempted I must admit, but unfortunately, I had a wedding dance to go to that night, so I had to reject mr right.
For a while there I also had a creepy stocker coming to visit me all the time at my work, he even gave me his number and asked me to call him, sorry Steve, I dont date creepy 40 year olds!!! My boss used to make me run out back when he came in, because just ask her, he is creepy.
And now, I think the security guard at my work has a thing for me. He stops in to talk to me all the time, and follows me around on my break. Seems nice enough I guess, just really not into him. Dont really know him, and dont really want to get to know him. So now, Im in a usual predicament, I have to avoid him, so as that he doesnt ask me out, because I suck at saying no!!! But the thing is,its hard to avoid somebody who works in the same place as you. I guess Ill be doing the running out back and hiding again!!!!
And figure this out, the one guy that I actually am interested in, pretty sure he dont want me back!!!!!! Ill not mention his name, but he is great. He was esposed to come buy shoes from me,but didnt! The one guy I wouldnt have to run and hide from,seems to be keeping himself hidden from me!!! uggh!!!
So that is my love life in a nutshell!!!!
