So what's up? How's life? That bad, huh? Oh really? That's terrific. Glad to hear it.
So anyway, the week is almost over and I am SO glad. Don't get me wrong, I love my life, and I'm not in any hurry to get old(er), but I am always glad to get through the work week.
Sheesh, what a busy day. I wrote that last sentence a half hour ago. Keep getting interrupted by people who think they're more important. That's the way of the world, right? Seems like it.
How do you deal with difficult people? If you're not doing anything wrong, and they're just being difficult, how do you deal with them? I gotta say, I've changed my approach. In general, I am terrified of confrontation - it's just my personality type. However, I have started standing up for myself - especially at work. There comes a point when you just don't want to deal with it anymore. At first it was scary, and I'd be breathing hard or shaking or something, and now I kind of enjoy it. It's like a challenge to see who will win. I mean why should people always be able to push you around? Stand up and defend yourself! To quote First Knight:
"Fight! Like you've never fought before! Fight! Never Surrender! Never Surrender!" Of course, then he gets shout five times and eventually dies, but at least he went down swinging. Literally - he was swinging his sword around when they shot him. If you haven't seen that movie, rent it now. The acting could be a little better, but it's a great movie. That and Pirates 1. I have them memorized. Great stuff.
So what about this weather? I quit watching the weather at night because I was tired of them being wrong - so now it's always an adventure. What will the weather be like tomorrow? Might be rain, might be sun, for sure it will be hot, but that's just because this is Houston, Texas, and it's ALWAYS hot.
I'm just curious, how many people actually read this post on a regular basis? If you're reading this right now, can you leave a comment with your first name or something just to let me know? I'd like to know. Don't worry, I'm not going to hunt you down, call you out, or email you weird stuff, just like to know if anyone other than james, lynne, and melissa (and Isaac, of course) are reading this stuff. Better get back to work. I've been trying to finish this post for over an hour. Later,

I read it :-)
...Morgan. regular.
I read it sometimes. I forgot how I found you, but it can be rather interesting. And I was about to comment on how you always can't wait to get to Friday... but I don't blame you. If I worked as much as you did I'd feel the same way.
I check up on you about once a week. :)
