My new job is really starting to hit me where it hurts. My over-inflated ego. Never mind that the training isn’t so hot. And if the company wants to experiment on it’s customers…that’s the company’s decision. I just don’t like being squished in the middle of it. And I mean SQUISHED. Fortunately, I haven’t gotten any customers yelling at me, but it will happen. In any job when you have to deal with people, it will happen. I can’t wait.

I also realize that now more than ever, I need to work on my patience. I’m supposed to be helping people with their technical difficulties, not shaking my head in disbelief and thinking: “How could you be so stupid?!”

Maybe if I kept up on my meditations…oh well. The important things in life never come easily…or quickly. I’m just glad I have my Prince to comfort, encourage, inspire, guide and love me. And keep me in line…sometimes.

Your Rising Sign is Scorpio

You’re so intense and passionate - you’re on fire! You want to be an angel or a devil… you can’t decide which. No wonder you seem moody and even a little dangerious. You’ve got some major mystery going on, so work it! Your personality is the strongest of all signs, making you hard to deal with. While you’re ruthless to your enemies, you’re loyal to your one true love.

You Have Willpower of Steel

Your personal motto could be “Where there’s a will, there’s a way.” If you will something, you make it happen - no matter how difficult it is. You don’t back down from commitments, even when you regret making them. That being said, you are pretty careful about what you commit to!

Unconscious Mutterings, Week 285:

1. Intimated :: the beginning of a scandal
2. Brush :: …with death
3. Masquerade :: Phantom of the Opera
4. Procedure :: Fire, Earthquake, Bomb threat, etc.
5. Tattoos :: Decide wisely. This is not something that should be done on a whim.
6. Square :: Towne square
7. Tuck :: Friar Tuck
8. Boyfriend :: I think there should be a guy’s version of Avril’s song: "Girlfriend."
9. Badass :: Something the Prince says (too often) when he sees something he likes on a movie–usually an action movie.
10. Thousand :: The death of a thousand screams. From the Rex Harrison version of Dr. Doolittle. FYI: There’s also a death (penalty) of ten thousand screams.

Going to bed soon. I’m just having too much fun watching movies. I slept all day mostly because I don’t feel well and partly to avoid the heat. Ugh. At least I got to spend some time with my Prince.

Oh, got through my first full week of my new job! I am so nervous to start phase 2 on the 22nd, but I’m confident I can handle the technological part. It’s the customer service part. That’s never been my strong point.

"You don’t like our prices? Well, I’m sorry, sir, but I make the pricing, so either you can pay or LEAVE." Or… "I’m very sorry someone ELSE screwed you over, but that doesn’t make it ok for you to yell at ME. Trust me, buster, I can scream LOUDER and be a hell of a lot MEANER than you."

Eh, I just usually take the high road and only IMAGINE the low road. Believe, me, the bad guys in my stories get the crap kicked out of them. Everyone has their own outlet. Writing is mine.

I wrote Vengeance is Mine during a hard and angry time in my life. Even then, though, the moral of my story was that hate never satisfies–and, eventually, it kills. So, I don’t totally lose my head when I write. I write to set my head straight again.

Aw, the deliciousness of creating and maintaining my very own world. I love creativity and imagination, don’t you?
