Horoscope Warning
I don't believe in horoscopes, but I read mine almost everyday because it is on my search engine. Mine was interesting today (very creative writer): It seems that the heavens have decided to pass out coupons, redeemable toward a veritable arsenal of verbal weapons. Interestingly enough, the offer is only good for your sign. Needless to say, you should be very careful if you decide to accept the offer -- and even more careful when deciding where and when to put them into use. Basically, you'll have the verbal ability to decimate anyone who even mildly disagrees with you. It's up to you to draw the line where it should be drawn.
Good to know - I am going to try to avoid the guy whose office is next to mine. There are many things I respect about the guy, but his political & world views tend to anger me beyond belief. I don't let many things get to me, but his narrow minded backward ways can get me extremely ticked off. It is not only me either - the other two females in the office argue with him a lot more than I do. Plus, every man in the office has had at least one big argument with him. Some days I really wonder how his wife & 3 daughters manage.
The last time I was truly angry was at him. He had the nerve to tell me that anyone in the world who isn't 100% pro-American is a waste of a life and they should all be killed. He was talking about people in the Middle East, but let me ask you - Who is 100% pro-American? Everyone can find something about this country that needs improvement. We all have a certain amount of patriotism & criticism in us. I realize that he is a very backwards person who has never been anywhere. He lives in his own very small world & doesn’t affect anything, so I should just ignore him.
Anyway, in light of the horoscope (right or wrong) - I will go out of my way to avoid him today. This little blog entry has given me an idea though. Do you think it would be cruel to bring some of my Middle Eastern photos & decorations to the office? My office is extremely plain & I have been planning to spruce it up. Perhaps a prayer rug & a few photos of Qatar would be enough to agitate him a little.

This
blog is like a journal for me. It is also a way for my friends to keep
tabs on me.
For
people who don't know me, I come from a big family (3 brothers & 1
sister). We moved around a LOT, so I am not really from one particular
place. I like to call Katy, Texas my home though.
