hey lady? there’s a difference between being particular, and being a fucking arsehole.

my day? my day had been awesome so far. then you came in, acted like a fuckwit at me, and now i have to work on getting past it. thanks a fucking bunch, dickhead.

i adore men who are strong and confident, and yes, sometimes even arrogant. even if i am not attracted to them, i often find them an absolute pleasure to be around.

but there is a line. a BIG line.

sometimes, i deal with men who are strong willed and arseholes. i just want to scream at them that it is possible to be strong, powerful and/or impressive without being a jerkoff.

they come here, stand in my face and try to throw their attitude around, like i’m some “little woman” who’s going to take that shit lying down. and i can’t tell them to go stick it because i want their money. i can however gently but insistently imply by my demeanour, and my calm, controlled, restrained voice that this here is my domain, and i know what i’m doing.

then after 30 mins + of wasting my time, they realise i clearly know more than them, and they give up their control, the bullshit attitude, and the condescending tone of voice, and walk out of here much happier for it.

why can’t we just skip the middle bit where you’re acting like a jerk and making me unhappy and go straight to the part where you trust me and give me all your money?

i am so frustrated at this very moment i am having trouble seeing.

i hate people.

nay, i hate customers.

once upon a time, some people worked in a very busy shop.

one day, one person who had gotten very old and tired, up and moved to another land far away.

at about this same time, the shop got even busier, and those that were left, had much work to do all the time.

this made the people really happy, but at the same time, left them a bit sad, as they were always tired and unable to be bothered doing anything.

one day, unable to justify the expense any longer as they never had the time to play, the people even gave up playing a game where they pretended to be people once upon a time in a land far away.

then one day, in an attempt at being lighthearted about it, one of the people wrote a really lame blog entry about being so busy that they never got enough time to see their friends and do all that fun stuff that they always used to do.

the people were looking forward to the day that they would have lots of money, and live happily ever after.

what’s been happening in my world?

the chest infection i had, for 3 weeks even after hardcore antibiotics, turned out to be my childhood asthma returning for a whirlwind reunion tour, according to a gp at my medical centre. he prescribed to me ventolin and symbicort and i am feeling better, but i just have to wait and see if this is a long term issue, or just one of particularly bad chest infectioning. i’m not too worried as long as i have medication. medication makes everything nicely.

i suppose you want an explanation for the slight changes to the site, eh? …
